About the Dahua ITC352-AU3F
The Dahua ITC352-AU3F is a weather-sealed bullet housing optimized for perimeter, parking, and exterior building installations. 1080p Full HD remains the most widely deployed CCTV resolution in 2026 — it balances bandwidth, storage, and detail well, supporting facial identification up to roughly 12 meters in good light. Medium IR range (20–40 m) is appropriate for typical residential driveways, small commercial perimeters, and back-of-house loading bays where reach beyond ~30 m is rarely needed at night. A narrow field of view trades coverage area for pixel density at distance — the right choice when you need to read faces or plates far from the camera, e.g., long corridors, gate approaches, ANPR installations. Super Low Light technology pulls usable color out of scenes lit by little more than a streetlight or moonlight, eliminating the need to drop into B/W mode in most night conditions.
Best use cases for this camera
Entrance, lobby & vestibule
Low-light sensitivity preserves face detail even when interior lighting is dimmed for energy savings. Useful for capturing visitors as they enter and leave.
Long corridor & aisle monitoring
The 30° narrow angle is intentionally tuned for corridor work — it concentrates pixel density along the length of the hallway rather than wasting resolution on the side walls. Mount at the far end facing along the corridor.
Strengths
- •Super Low Light sensor maintains color detail in near-darkness
- •50m effective range supports outdoor perimeter and parking-lot deployments
Considerations
- •Narrow angle requires more cameras to cover wide areas — plan camera count accordingly

Field of View Visualization
Night Vision Performance
Daytime
Full 2.1MP (1920×1080) resolution at 30° field of view. Effective identification range up to 50m in good lighting conditions.
Nighttime (IR)
Built-in IR LEDs illuminate up to 40m in complete darkness. Super Low Light sensor captures color images in near-darkness (down to 0.001 lux).
Installation tips for the ITC352-AU3F
Mount at 4–6 m height angled 10–20° downward — high enough to deter tampering, low enough to preserve face detail at 35m.
Plan cabling for multiple cameras to cover wide areas — at 30° you cover roughly 5 m of width per camera at 10 m distance.
Coverage geometry & DORI distances
At a 5-metre standoff the Dahua ITC352-AU3F covers about 2.7 m of scene width; at 10 m that grows to 5.4 m, and at 20 m to 10.7 m. Translating those numbers through EN 62676-4 pixel-density thresholds, the camera can detect a person up to 144 m, observe up to 58 m, recognise up to 29 m, and produce identification-grade detail (the ≥250 px/m bar used by Polish and EU courts as evidentiary) up to 14 m. Effective range above the identify threshold relies on supplementary lighting or a longer-focal-length optic — the geometry above assumes the 16-40mm lens declared by the manufacturer.
Power & cabling
The Dahua ITC352-AU3F draws an estimated 7.5 W under typical load (with the IR illuminator engaged where applicable), placing it in the 802.3af (Class 3, ≤15.4 W) budget. A single switch port supplies enough power without an injector. Cabling: stick to Cat6 STP for runs up to 100 m end-to-end — beyond that, add an inline PoE extender or move to fibre with a media converter at the camera end. On outdoor runs, route through ø25 PVC or PE conduit to keep the cable shielded from UV and rodents.
Privacy & legal (GDPR / RODO)
Any camera operating in a publicly accessible area falls under GDPR (RODO in Poland) — Art. 13 obliges the data controller to post an information sign at every entry point with controller name, DPO contact, lawful basis (typically Art. 6(1)(f) legitimate interest for property protection), purpose, and retention period. Even a narrowly-aimed bullet camera can incidentally record passers-by, so the Art. 13 sign at the entry point applies regardless of how tightly the lens is framed.
Installer time & cost (rough estimate)
A typical EU installer quotes 4–5 h of labour per bullet camera of this class (approximately €180–€230 excluding hardware), broken down as bracket mounting, cable termination at both ends, on-site commissioning, and a brief operator handover. Allow extra time for high mounts (>4 m), exterior installations requiring scaffolding, or sites where cable routing demands wall penetrations or conduit work.
Indicative EU 2024-2025 pricing — actual quotes vary by region, mounting height, and site conditions. Excludes hardware, transport, permits, and VAT.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Dahua ITC352-AU3F suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes for the IP66/IP67-rated variant of this model. Bullet and dome bodies in the Dahua range survive direct rain, snow and UV; check the IP / IK rating against your environment (IP66 for rain/dust, IK10 for vandal-prone locations).
What PoE class powers the Dahua ITC352-AU3F?
The camera draws roughly 7.5 W in steady-state operation, requiring a 802.3af (Class 3, ≤15.4 W) switch port. A single Cat6 STP cable carries both data and power up to 100 m — beyond that, add an inline extender or convert to fibre near the camera.
How much storage does the Dahua ITC352-AU3F consume per day?
At 2.1MP (1920×1080) resolution, 15 fps H.265 continuous recording, the ITC352-AU3F produces approximately 8 GB per day — about 240 GB per month. Motion-only or event-triggered recording typically cuts that by 40–70 % depending on scene activity. Plan NVR HDD capacity for the longest retention period required by your privacy policy or insurance contract.
Up to what distance can the Dahua ITC352-AU3F identify a person?
Per EN 62676-4:2025 pixel-density thresholds, this camera identifies (≥ 250 px/m on the target) up to about 14 m, recognises a person up to 29 m, observes general activity up to 58 m, and detects motion up to 144 m. Identification distance assumes daylight or full IR illumination on the target — at the limits of the IR cone the effective identify distance shrinks roughly 30 %.
What network bandwidth does Dahua ITC352-AU3F use?
Typical ingest is 3 Mbps for the main stream (H.265, medium scene complexity, 15 fps) plus ~0.5 Mbps for a low-resolution sub-stream used by mobile clients. For a 16-camera installation of this class, plan a 50–100 Mbps NVR uplink and a dedicated VLAN for camera traffic.
