HiLook IPC-T249HA-LU(2.8mm) is a 4MP PoE turret IP camera with Smart Hybrid Light illumination, a built-in microphone, Motion Detection 2.0 human/vehicle classification and IP67 weatherproofing. It is designed as a value-tier outdoor turret for residential and small commercial installations.
HiLook IPC-T249HA-LU(2.8mm) 4MP Smart Hybrid Light Turret IP Camera
The HiLook IPC-T249HA-LU uses a 1/3" Progressive Scan CMOS sensor delivering up to 2560 × 1440 (4MP) resolution, with a large F1.0 aperture giving a minimum colour illumination of 0.001 Lux (AGC on). Smart Hybrid Light combines IR and white-light illumination, switching automatically to colour imaging when the camera's Motion Detection 2.0 identifies a human or vehicle.
This 2.8mm fixed-lens variant provides a horizontal field of view of 96°, vertical FOV of 52° and diagonal FOV of 114°. A built-in microphone supports audio recording alongside video, and the camera is rated IP67 for outdoor use.
4MP Imaging & 2.8mm Lens
Maximum resolution is 2560 × 1440 at up to 20fps, encoded via H.265+/H.265/H.264+/H.264 on the main stream. The 2.8mm lens gives a 96° horizontal field of view, suited to wide-area coverage of entrances, driveways and open spaces.
Smart Hybrid Light & Low-Light Performance
Smart Hybrid Light pairs IR and white-light illuminators. Minimum illumination is rated at 0.001 Lux in colour mode (F1.0 aperture, AGC on) and effectively 0 Lux with supplemental light active, giving strong low-light colour detail.
Motion Detection 2.0
Deep-learning-based Motion Detection 2.0 classifies movement as human or vehicle, triggering alarms only for these target types and reducing false alerts from animals, foliage and other environmental movement.
Built-In Microphone & Network Security
A built-in microphone allows audio to be captured alongside video footage. The camera supports password protection, complicated password enforcement, digest authentication for HTTP and ONVIF, watermarking and host (MAC) authentication, with up to 32 user accounts across three permission levels.
Power & IP67 Weatherproofing
Powered via PoE (IEEE 802.3af, Class 3, max 7.5W) or 12V DC (0.5A, max 6.0W) through a 5.5mm coaxial connector with reverse polarity protection. Rated IP67 against dust and water ingress, operating from −30°C to +60°C.
