HiLook IPC-T289H-MU/SL 8MP 4K Smart Hybrid Light Turret Camera with Strobe & Two-Way Audio

Hikvision HiLook IPC-T289H-MU/SL 8MP 4K All-in-One Smart Hybrid Light Turret Network Camera

The HiLook IPC-T289H-MU/SL is a professional 8MP 4K All-in-One fixed turret IP security camera combining Ultra HD video surveillance, Smart Hybrid Light night vision, intelligent human and vehicle detection, active red-and-blue flashing strobe lights and two-way audio communication.

Manufactured by HiLook, a Hikvision security camera brand, this advanced All-in-One CCTV camera is designed for residential, commercial and industrial security installations requiring high-resolution surveillance and proactive intruder deterrence.

Unlike conventional security cameras that primarily record events, the IPC-T289H-MU/SL combines video monitoring, intelligent detection, visual warnings and audible deterrence in a single compact turret camera.

Equipped with a 1/2.8-inch progressive scan CMOS image sensor, the camera captures detailed 3840 × 2160 8MP 4K Ultra HD video at up to 20 frames per second.

The high-resolution image provides excellent detail for monitoring entrances, driveways, building perimeters, warehouses, loading areas and other locations requiring reliable security surveillance.

The camera features Smart Hybrid Light technology, combining infrared and white supplemental illumination with three selectable lighting modes.

Its integrated illumination system supports night-time monitoring up to 30 metres, allowing installers to configure infrared surveillance, white-light colour imaging or intelligent hybrid lighting according to site requirements.

The IPC-T289H-MU/SL features active red-and-blue flashing strobe lights designed to provide a highly visible warning when supported security events are triggered.

An integrated 2W speaker supports audible alarm warnings, adding another deterrence measure for unwanted activity.

The camera also features built-in arrayed dual microphones, providing high-quality audio capture with environmental noise filtering.

Combined with its built-in speaker, the camera supports two-way audio communication, allowing users to listen and speak through compatible software and network configurations.

Advanced deep-learning human and vehicle classification helps distinguish relevant security activity from general movement, reducing unwanted notifications caused by environmental motion.

The IPC-T289H-MU/SL supports intelligent line-crossing detection and intrusion detection, including human and vehicle target classification for supported alarm events.

With 120 dB True Wide Dynamic Range, the camera helps maintain image visibility in challenging lighting conditions, such as entrances exposed to bright sunlight and shaded areas.

The camera supports H.265+ video compression, helping optimise bandwidth usage and recording storage requirements when used with compatible network video recorders.

A built-in microSD memory card slot supports compatible cards up to 512GB, providing an additional local recording option.

Its IP67-rated metal housing provides protection against dust and water ingress when correctly installed, making it suitable for professional outdoor CCTV installations.

The camera supports IEEE 802.3at PoE+ power, allowing compatible network equipment to deliver power and data through a single Ethernet cable.

Designed for use with compatible HiLook and Hikvision network video recorders, the IPC-T289H-MU/SL is an excellent choice for security installers, electricians and system integrators requiring a professional All-in-One active deterrence CCTV solution.

Important: This is a conventional fixed turret camera, not a dual-lens panoramic camera or motorised PTZ camera. It requires an IEEE 802.3at PoE+ power source or compatible 12V DC supply.

Three-year Australian camera warranty applies subject to applicable warranty terms.
