Dahua DH-HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A 5MP HDCVI Fixed-focal Bullet Camera — Starlight Clarity With Full-Color Night Vision on Every Budget
Across Bangladesh’s growing security market, one specification still catches most buyers off guard when they review footage after an incident — the image quality drops dramatically the moment natural light disappears. Black-and-white IR footage shows movement, yes, but it rarely shows enough. A person’s clothing color. A vehicle’s shade. The kind of details that actually matter when you’re trying to identify who was there and what happened. The Dahua DH-HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A 5MP Smart Dual Light HDCVI Fixed-focal Bullet Camera was designed specifically to fix that problem, without requiring a complete infrastructure overhaul.
At the heart of this camera is a 5-megapixel CMOS sensor with Starlight technology — meaning it’s engineered to produce clear, detailed images at extremely low light levels, reaching down to 0.01 lux in color mode and 0.001 lux in black-and-white mode. That sensitivity alone already puts it ahead of most cameras in its class. But what truly separates the DH-HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A is its Smart Dual Light system — two independent illumination sources working in intelligent coordination. The warm white LEDs deliver vivid, full-color footage up to 30 meters when targets are detected in the scene. The infrared LEDs provide discreet, long-range coverage when color isn’t necessary. The camera manages these automatically, so your footage is always the best quality possible for any given lighting condition.
Like all of Dahua’s HDCVI lineup, this camera transmits 5MP HD video, audio, data, and power simultaneously over a single coaxial cable — a critical practical advantage for businesses and homeowners across Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, and Rajshahi that already have analog CCTV cabling in place. No IP rewiring. No additional infrastructure investment. Just a direct upgrade to 5-megapixel resolution and smart dual-light performance on your existing system.
The built-in microphone captures audio alongside video through the same coaxial cable connection, providing context that silent footage simply cannot. The IP67 weatherproof rating ensures the camera handles Bangladesh’s monsoon rains, dust, and temperature extremes from -40°C to +60°C with complete reliability. With support for PoC (Power over Coax), flexible lens options in 2.8mm and 3.6mm, and multi-format output across CVI, TVI, AHD, and CVBS, this is a camera that fits almost every existing setup without complication.

Why You Should Buy the Dahua DH-HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A 5MP HDCVI Bullet Camera
- Starlight Sensor + Smart Dual Light = The Best Possible Image in Any Condition — Most 5MP cameras in this price range either have a decent sensor or a decent illumination system — rarely both working together effectively. The DH-HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A combines a genuine Starlight-rated 5MP sensor capable of extraordinary low-light sensitivity with a Smart Dual Light system that actively illuminates scenes in full color up to 30 meters. The result is footage that remains sharp, colorful, and identifiable whether you’re monitoring a dimly lit factory corridor in Gazipur, a poorly lit parking area in Chittagong, or a residential gate in Dhaka at 3am. For security decision-makers who’ve been burned by unusable nighttime footage in the past, this combination is the direct answer to that problem.
- 5MP HDCVI Over Existing Coax — Upgrade Without Rewiring — Replacing working coaxial cable infrastructure to support IP cameras is one of the most avoidable costs in a CCTV upgrade project, yet many businesses in Bangladesh do it anyway because they’re not aware of better options. The DH-HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A transmits full 5MP HD video, audio, data, and power over standard coaxial cable — with HDCVI technology supporting transmission distances up to 700 meters without signal degradation. For system owners looking to move from 2MP or 1080p analog cameras to 5MP with smart dual light, this camera makes the upgrade almost entirely plug-and-play. That’s a significant cost and time saving that installers and end-users in Bangladesh consistently appreciate.
- PoC Support + IP67 + Wide Temperature Range = Truly Low-Maintenance Outdoor Deployment — Once it’s installed, you want a security camera to simply work — through monsoons, through summer heat peaks, through Bangladesh’s persistent humidity. The IP67-rated housing keeps out dust and water completely, while the -40°C to +60°C operating range far exceeds anything Bangladesh’s climate can actually throw at it. PoC (Power over Coax) support further simplifies installations by eliminating the need for a separate power supply at the camera location — power is delivered through the same coaxial cable that carries video. For security contractors and facility managers handling installations across multiple sites, that combination of durability and installation simplicity translates directly into fewer callbacks, fewer maintenance visits, and longer system lifespan.
FAQ
Q1: What is the difference between the Dahua HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A and other models like the HAC-HFW1500TLM-IL-A or HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A?
The primary differences come down to illumination distance and sensor sensitivity. The HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A features Starlight-rated low-light performance (0.01 lux color / 0.001 lux B&W) and a 30-meter Smart Dual Light range for both warm white and IR LEDs — placing it a step above the CLP model’s 20-meter range. The TLM variant also offers 40-meter IR range in some configurations. In practical terms, the RLP model is the right choice when you need maximum low-light color sensitivity combined with reliable 30-meter full-color coverage — ideal for moderately sized outdoor areas where Starlight performance matters more than extreme-range illumination.
Q2: What is the price of the Dahua DH-HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A in Bangladesh?
The Dahua DH-HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A is available in Bangladesh at a competitive mid-range price point for a 5MP Smart Dual Light HDCVI camera — contact your local authorized Dahua dealer or trusted CCTV supplier in Dhaka, Chittagong, or Sylhet for the most current and accurate BDT pricing and stock availability.
Q3: Does the Dahua HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A require a special DVR, or will it work with my existing recorder?
The camera supports four switchable output formats — CVI, TVI, AHD, and CVBS — selectable via a physical DIP switch on the cable. This means it is compatible with a very wide range of existing recorders, including older analog DVRs (via CVBS in standard definition) and modern XVRs and multi-format DVRs (via CVI or AHD for full 5MP HD resolution). For full 5MP 16:9 output and Smart Dual Light AI XVR trigger functionality, your XVR firmware should be upgraded to version V4.001.0000004.1.R.220323 or later — a free update available from Dahua’s official support portal.
