The IPC3612LB-AF28KT-WL is a model of IP security camera manufactured by Dahua Technology, which specializes in video surveillance solutions. Below are the key features and descriptions of this camera:
1. Resolution & Image Quality
- The IPC3612LB-AF28KT-WL typically supports 1080p Full HD resolution, offering high-definition video capture for clear image quality.
- It also supports Wide Dynamic Range (WDR), which helps to balance lighting in scenes with both bright and dark areas, improving visibility in challenging lighting conditions.
2. Lens & Field of View
- This camera features a motorized varifocal lens, which allows for remote adjustment of the field of view (28mm focal length in this case). This enables users to zoom in or out to get a closer or wider view without needing to physically adjust the camera.
- The motorized focus also ensures that the image remains sharp and clear at any zoom level.
3. Wireless Connectivity
- The WL in the model name indicates that this camera has Wi-Fi support, allowing for wireless connection to a network. This feature is particularly useful in locations where running Ethernet cables might be difficult.
4. Night Vision
- The camera is equipped with IR (infrared) night vision, enabling it to capture clear images even in low-light or dark conditions. The range of night vision is typically around 30-40 meters (about 100-130 feet), ensuring 24/7 surveillance capability.
5. Motion Detection & Alerts
- The IPC3612LB-AF28KT-WL supports motion detection features that can trigger alerts or record video when movement is detected within its field of view.
6. Two-Way Audio
- Some variants of this model support two-way audio, allowing users to listen in on the camera's surroundings and speak through the camera via a microphone and speaker system.
7. Storage Options
- The camera typically supports microSD cards (up to a certain capacity, often around 128GB), enabling local storage for video recordings, though it can also integrate with cloud or NVR (Network Video Recorder) solutions for long-term storage.
8. Build and Weather Resistance

- It is often compatible with various third-party platforms and can be integrated with other Dahua products like NVRs (Network Video Recorders), or other systems that support ONVIF protocols, ensuring flexibility in a variety of security setups.
10. Power Options
- While typically powered via PoE (Power over Ethernet), which simplifies installation by combining power and data into a single cable, it may also have a Wi-Fi option if you don't have Ethernet cabling, although this depends on the specific model.
11. Advanced Video Analytics (Optional)
- This camera may offer features like intrusion detection, line crossing detection, and other advanced analytics capabilities that help improve the accuracy of motion detection and reduce false alarms.
These cameras are ideal for both residential and commercial environments, providing a high level of surveillance with flexible connectivity options, advanced analytics, and robust image quality.
