Hikvision HiLook IPC-T381H-MU 8MP 4K IntelliSense Turret IP Camera with Built-In Microphone
The HiLook IPC-T381H-MU is a professional 8MP 4K IntelliSense fixed turret network security camera featuring high-resolution surveillance, intelligent human and vehicle classification, infrared night vision and built-in microphones for audio monitoring.
Manufactured by HiLook, a Hikvision security camera brand, this advanced IP camera is designed for residential, commercial and industrial CCTV installations requiring reliable image quality, intelligent detection and straightforward network integration.
With its 8MP imaging system, the IPC-T381H-MU captures detailed 4K surveillance footage, providing improved image clarity compared with lower-resolution CCTV cameras.
The camera incorporates a 1/2.8-inch CMOS image sensor, supporting high-resolution monitoring across a range of indoor and outdoor environments.
Its fixed turret design makes it suitable for monitoring entrances, driveways, building exteriors, warehouses, retail premises and other locations requiring dependable security surveillance.
The IPC-T381H-MU features IntelliSense intelligent detection technology, using deep-learning algorithms to distinguish human and vehicle targets from general movement.
Human and vehicle classification helps reduce unnecessary motion alerts caused by environmental activity, improving the relevance of security notifications.
The camera supports intelligent surveillance events including motion detection, line-crossing detection and intrusion detection, providing flexible monitoring options for professional CCTV installations.
For night-time monitoring, the IPC-T381H-MU features infrared illumination, allowing the camera to capture black-and-white surveillance images in darkness.
Unlike Smart Hybrid Light cameras, this model uses infrared illumination rather than an integrated white-light system for colour night surveillance.
The camera features built-in arrayed dual microphones, supporting audio monitoring and recording through compatible CCTV equipment.
Integrated microphone technology helps capture audio information alongside video footage, providing additional context for supported security recordings.
With 120 dB True Wide Dynamic Range, the IPC-T381H-MU helps maintain image visibility in scenes containing strong differences between bright and dark areas.
This is particularly useful for entrances, doorways and external surveillance locations where sunlight and shadows can affect image quality.
The camera also supports H.265+ video compression, helping optimise network bandwidth and recording storage requirements when used with compatible recording equipment.
Its IP67 weather-resistant housing provides protection against dust and water ingress when correctly installed, making the camera suitable for outdoor CCTV applications.
Designed for integration with compatible HiLook and Hikvision network video recorders, the IPC-T381H-MU is a practical surveillance solution for professional security installers, electricians and system integrators throughout Australia.
The camera is supplied in a white turret housing, providing a clean appearance for residential and commercial installations.
Important: The IPC-T381H-MU includes microphones for audio capture but does not feature a built-in speaker, two-way audio communication or active red-and-blue flashing strobe lights.
Three-year Australian camera warranty applies subject to applicable warranty terms.
