Description

Digital Watchdog DWC-MF5Wi8TW 5MP Outdoor IR Dome Camera

The Digital Watchdog DWC-MF5Wi8TW delivers enterprise-grade surveillance performance in a compact, vandal-resistant dome form factor. Built with a 5-megapixel CMOS sensor and 8mm fixed lens, this IP camera captures sharp, detailed imagery across expansive outdoor areas including parking lots, building perimeters, and industrial facilities. PoE-powered and IP66-rated for harsh weather conditions, the DWC-MF5Wi8TW provides dependable 24/7 security monitoring with minimal installation complexity.

Key Features

  • 5MP 1/2.8" CMOS sensor with 2592×1944 resolution
  • 8mm fixed lens with 37.8° HFOV and 22° VFOV for focused, telephoto coverage
  • 50-foot Smart IR™ illumination for zero-light night vision
  • True WDR 120dB for balanced exposure in mixed lighting
  • IP66 and IK10 vandal-dome rated construction
  • PoE power delivery; max 7.2W consumption
  • H.264/H.265 dual-stream encoding at up to 30fps
  • Micro SD/SDHC/SDXC local recording up to 1TB
  • 16 programmable privacy masks and motion detection
  • 5-year manufacturer warranty

Technical Specifications

Imaging: The 5MP sensor delivers native 2592×1944 resolution with Auto day/night switching, B/W night mode, and Smart DNR™ 3D digital noise reduction. Shutter speeds range from 1/15 to 1/32000, with selectable slow shutter modes (x2–x7.5) for low-light sensitivity enhancement. Auto white balance and de-fog processing optimize image quality across varied environmental conditions. Minimum scene illumination reaches 0.0 lux in B/W and 0.16 lux in color mode.

Connectivity & Streaming: Dual-stream capability enables simultaneous transmission at different resolutions and frame rates over H.264, H.265, or MJPEG codecs. Video bitrate ranges from 32Kbps to 20Mbps with CBR/VBR control. IPv4 support includes ONVIF conformance, RTSP, HTTP/HTTPS, DHCP, DNS, DDNS, and NTP for seamless integration with DW Spectrum® IPVMS, Genetec, Milestone, and ExacqVision platforms. Multi-user authority and 802.1x security enforce access controls.

Audio & Alarms: Line-level audio input and output support G.711 compression. Single alarm input/output and tamper detection enable event-driven notifications via email or SD card recording.

Advanced Analytics: IVA™ license includes intrusion detection, line crossing, loitering, enter/exit, and tamper alerts. Optional IVA+™ adds logical rules, object removal, tailgating, direction, and appearance/disappearance analytics.

Durability: Polycarbonate lens cover and aluminum die-cast housing withstand -4°F to 122°F operating temperatures and 10–90% humidity (non-condensing). Compact 4.92″ × 1.88″ form factor weighs only 0.88 lbs.

Applications

Ideal for perimeter security, parking lot surveillance, warehouse monitoring, and outdoor facility access control. The narrow 37.8° field of view and 50-foot IR range excel at identifying faces and license plates over medium to long distances. True WDR handles backlit entrances and reflective surfaces. Local SD recording provides failsafe backup when network connectivity is unavailable.

Perspective based on aggregated IP Security Depot and affiliated engineering team experience.

The DWC-MF5Wi8TW is purpose-built for telephoto surveillance applications where detail recognition matters. The 8mm lens trades field of view for range—ideal for targeted monitoring rather than wide-area coverage. At 5MP native resolution, image crops retain adequate detail for facial or license plate identification at 40+ feet.

Smart IR™ with 50-foot reach eliminates costly lighting infrastructure, and the 120dB WDR engine handles strong backlight without washout. PoE delivery simplifies cabling; optional 12V DC powering adds flexibility for remote locations. The IK10 vandal rating and IP66 seal ensure field longevity.

Integration with major VMS platforms and local SD backup create redundancy for mission-critical sites. Consider this model when you need focused, long-range outdoor monitoring with minimal installation footprint.

Available in White.
