Dahua HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A 5MP Smart Dual Light HDCVI Fixed-focal Audio Bullet Camera — Affordable Full-Color Security That Doesn’t Compromise on Performance
There’s a growing segment of Bangladesh’s security market where buyers face a genuine dilemma — they want full-color night vision and audio recording in a single camera, but budget constraints push them toward basic IR-only models that deliver none of that. The Dahua HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A 5MP Smart Dual Light HDCVI Fixed-focal Audio Bullet Camera was designed precisely for this gap. It delivers full-color night vision, built-in audio, and 5-megapixel resolution in a compact bullet form factor — without the price tag that usually comes with those features combined.
The 5MP CMOS sensor produces crisp 2880×1620 resolution footage at 25 frames per second, capturing fine detail that 2MP cameras simply cannot match. More importantly, the Smart Dual Light system uses two independent illumination sources — warm white LEDs and infrared LEDs — both covering up to 20 meters. When ambient light drops, the camera automatically activates warm LED illumination to produce vivid, full-color footage. When the scene is in near-total darkness without a target trigger, it switches to infrared for efficient, discreet coverage. The result is footage that stays informative and colorful across real-world outdoor conditions that matter most for Bangladeshi deployments.
The built-in microphone transmits audio alongside video over the same coaxial cable — a feature that sets the HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A apart from standard analog bullet cameras at this price point. Audio context — ambient sounds, conversations, alarms — adds a layer of evidentiary value that silent footage cannot replicate, and it’s particularly appreciated in commercial premises, school boundaries, and residential gates across Dhaka, Chittagong, and Sylhet.
Because it runs on Dahua’s proven HDCVI platform, this camera integrates seamlessly into existing analog coaxial cable infrastructure. There’s no need to rewire. You get 5MP, full-color night vision, and audio on the same coax run your old 1MP or 2MP camera used to occupy. Multi-format output across CVI, TVI, AHD, and CVBS ensures compatibility with virtually every DVR or XVR on the market in Bangladesh today. Add IP67 weatherproofing and a -40°C to +60°C operating range, and you have a camera that handles Bangladesh’s monsoon seasons, high humidity, and summer heat without missing a beat.

Why You Should Buy the Dahua HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A 5MP Bullet Camera
- Full-Color Night Vision + Built-in Audio at an Entry-Level Price — Rarely Found Together — Most cameras in this price segment in Bangladesh force a trade-off: you either get color night vision or audio, not both. The HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A breaks that pattern. The Smart Dual Light system delivers genuine full-color footage in the dark up to 20 meters, and the built-in microphone captures ambient audio over the same coaxial cable — no separate audio cable, no extra hardware. For homeowners monitoring gates and driveways, retail shops recording customer interactions, or small factories monitoring production floors in Gazipur and Narayanganj, this combination delivers surveillance capability that cameras at twice the price often don’t match.
- 5MP Resolution Over Existing Coax — A Real Upgrade Without Real Rewiring Costs — Upgrading from an old 1MP or 2MP analog CCTV system to 5MP image quality doesn’t require touching your existing coaxial cable runs when you choose an HDCVI camera like the HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A. The CVI/TVI/AHD/CVBS multi-format output means this camera connects to virtually every DVR and XVR on the Bangladeshi market without compatibility headaches. For system owners looking for a meaningful resolution boost — finer facial details, clearer vehicle identification, sharper scene coverage — without the expense of rewiring or switching to IP, this camera delivers exactly that improvement in a straightforward plug-and-play upgrade.
- IP67 + PoC + Wide Voltage Tolerance Built for Bangladesh’s Outdoor Realities — Security cameras in Bangladesh face conditions that quickly expose poorly built hardware — monsoon rain, extreme humidity, voltage fluctuations, and summer temperatures that would stress standard electronics. The IP67 rating protects completely against dust ingress and submersion, while the -40°C to +60°C operating range handles anything Bangladesh’s climate produces. The ±30% wide voltage tolerance absorbs the kind of power supply instability common in many areas outside major city centers. PoC (Power over Coax) further simplifies installation by eliminating the need for a separate power adapter at each camera point — a practical benefit on boundary walls, rooftops, and elevated mounting positions where running two cables is inconvenient.
FAQ — Dahua HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A Audio Bullet Camera
Q1: What is the difference between the Dahua HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A and the HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A?
The key differences are illumination range and sensor sensitivity. The CLP model features 20-meter illumination distance for both warm white and IR LEDs, while the RLP model extends that to 30 meters and incorporates a Starlight-rated sensor with significantly lower minimum illumination — reaching 0.01 lux in color mode compared to the CLP’s 0.05 lux. In practical terms, the CLP is the better value choice for shorter-range applications like residential gates, small shop entrances, and indoor-adjacent outdoor areas where 20 meters of coverage is sufficient. The RLP is the right choice when you need maximum low-light sensitivity and longer illumination range for larger open areas.
Q2: What is the price of the Dahua HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A in Bangladesh?
The Dahua HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A is available at Star Tech in Bangladesh at a price of BDT 2,950, though pricing may vary slightly between retailers — always confirm current BDT pricing and stock availability with your local authorized Dahua dealer or trusted CCTV supplier in Dhaka, Chittagong, or Sylhet for the most accurate figure.
Q3: Does the HAC-HFW1500CLP-IL-A record audio, and how does the audio reach the DVR?
Yes, the camera has a built-in microphone that captures ambient audio. The audio signal is transmitted over the same coaxial cable as the video signal using Dahua’s HDCVI technology — no separate audio cable is required. HDCVI supports broadcast-quality audio signal transmission over coaxial cables using a unique audio processing and transmission technology that restores source audio and eliminates noise, making it reliable for evidentiary and monitoring purposes. To record audio, your DVR or XVR must support HDCVI audio input — most modern Dahua XVRs do, and the XVR firmware should be updated to version V4.001.0000004.1.R.220323 or later for full 5MP and Smart Dual Light compatibility.
