AUD $233.00 inc GST
HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret: this colour night vision camera wears white metal, resolves 4K detail, records audio on two built-in microphones and supports people and vehicle detection, while its power and video share one network lead back to the recorder. It suits a pale-brick family home, a salon or bakery with a light-coloured shopfront, or an electrician adding cameras to a client’s HiLook recorder.
🌙 Colour Video After the Sun Goes Down — Colour picture day and night: 24/7 colour imaging from an F1.0 lens and a 1/1.8″ sensor, with a built-in white supplement light that reaches up to 30 m.
📷 Sharp Detail Across a Wide Scene — 8MP 4K (3840 × 2160) through a 2.8 mm lens that takes in 108.8° across and 134.3° corner to corner, so the HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret leaves plenty of pixels to zoom into when you pause a clip
🎙️ Hear the Moment as Well as See It — a 4K camera with a microphone pair: the two mics filter out background noise and lay the sound onto the footage beside the picture; one-way audio, and the camera has no speaker
🧠 AI Human and Vehicle Detection — the HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret supports person and vehicle classification based on deep learning, plus line crossing, intrusion, region entrance and region exiting detection; alerts can be filtered to people and vehicles
☀️ Harsh Sun and Dark Shade Handled Together — 130 dB scene-adaptive WDR balances a sunlit background against a subject standing in shadow, backed by backlight and highlight compensation, noise reduction, defog and image stabilisation
📱 Check In From Your Phone or PC — open the live picture on a phone through Hik-Connect, or at a desk with iVMS-4200 or Hik-Central; for other makes of recorder or software it offers ONVIF, ISAPI and SDK support
💾 MicroSD slot — up to 512GB — keep event clips and snapshots on the camera itself with a microSD, microSDHC or microSDXC card, and ANR back-fills recordings once a dropped network link returns; MicroSD card not included
🔌 Just One Cable to Run — one cable for power and picture: standard PoE (802.3af) runs the HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret from the recorder’s own PoE ports or a separate PoE switch, and 12 VDC is the fallback
🤍 A White Finish for Light-Coloured Homes and Shops — a white turret camera in an IP67 water and dust resistant metal housing, rated to operate from -30 °C to 60 °C
🔒 Mask Off Parts of the Picture — four polygon privacy masks black out the areas you would rather keep off the recording, while the rest of the scene stays in view

colour at night from an F1.0 lens and a white light reaching 30 m · 8MP 4K detail across a 108.8° view · an arrayed dual microphone recording the sound · people and vehicles classified by deep learning · standard PoE (802.3af) over one cable, or 12 VDC · an IP67 white metal housing · RCM-approved for Australia
This HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret suits the buyer who wants colour footage at night from a camera that blends with light paintwork. Picture a cream-brick home where a black camera would stand out, a bakery or beauty salon with a white shopfront, or an electrician topping up a client’s HiLook PoE recorder with one more 4K camera. Would black suit your trim better? The twin is listed under Available models.
Inside the white shell, a 1/1.8″ sensor behind an F1.0 lens gathers light for 8MP 4K (3840 × 2160) video, with a white supplement light rated to 30 m. Deep learning sorts people from vehicles, and a pair of microphones picks up the audio. Connect the HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret to a PoE port and a single network lead handles its power, video and sound.
Human and Vehicle Detection — Let the Camera Sort People From Cars
The HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret uses deep learning to class what it sees as a person or a vehicle. Rules for a line being crossed, an intrusion into a zone, or a region being entered or exited are supported: draw the line or zone in the settings, then pick people, vehicles or both as the target that raises the alarm. Motion detection supports the same choice of target. Video tampering, scene change and exception alarms are supported too. When a rule trips, the camera can record, grab a snapshot, email you, notify the surveillance centre or save files to FTP, NAS or its memory card. Face capture is listed among its deep learning functions.
Colour Night Vision — Hi-Color 24/7 Colour Imaging With a White Light Reaching up to 30 m
HiLook calls this Hi-Color: 24/7 colour imaging, so a clip recorded after sunset can show the colour of a raincoat, a cap or a delivery van. The HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret pairs an F1.0 lens with a 1/1.8″ sensor and records colour down to 0.0005 Lux, and the white supplement light built into it carries up to 30 m. The comparison below sets it beside HiLook’s IPC-T381H-MU.
Dual Microphone Audio — A 4K Camera With a Microphone Built In
Sound changes what a recording tells you. The HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret records audio on a two-microphone array that filters background noise, so a dog barking, a gate latch or a shout can come back on playback alongside the picture. It listens and records only: one-way audio, with no speaker for talking back.
Power Over One Cable — Plus a Metal Housing Sealed Against Dust and Water
The HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret draws standard PoE (802.3af) over its network cable, supplied by a PoE switch or by your recorder, so the camera needs no separate power outlet; where PoE isn’t on hand, a 12 VDC supply connects to its Ø5.5 mm coaxial plug. Its metal cover and body carry an IP67 rating for water and dust and are rated to run from -30 °C to 60 °C. It measures Ø138.3 mm × 115.4 mm and weighs about 750 g.
Where the HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret Earns Its Place
🏡 Households with cream brick or white trim — a turret that matches the paintwork, records evening comings and goings in colour and keeps the sound with each clip
🏢 Salons and bakeries with a pale frontage — 8MP 4K detail to zoom into on playback, audio on the footage and alerts narrowed to people or vehicles
🔧 Electricians fitting out a client’s PoE recorder — a single cable per camera on standard 802.3af PoE, white or black housings to match the job, and ONVIF for recorders of other makes

Frequently Asked Questions — Buying This HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret
Q: Will the HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret run on the recorder I have?
A: It needs standard PoE (802.3af), which a PoE switch or a PoE recorder supplies over the network cable, or a 12 VDC supply. On HiLook’s side, either the NVR-104MH-C/4P(D) or the NVR-108MH-C/8P(D) can power and record it through one of its PoE ports; with a recorder of another make, it connects through ONVIF Profile S, Profile G and Profile T.
Q: Is the audio two-way, so I can speak through it?
A: It is one-way audio: the arrayed dual microphone records sound with the video, and there is no speaker on the camera to talk back through.
Q: Will I get a colour picture from this turret at night?
A: Yes. HiLook lists 24/7 colour imaging for this camera. The F1.0 lens collects more light for the 1/1.8″ sensor, colour is rated down to 0.0005 Lux, and the camera is rated to 0 Lux with its white supplement light, which has a range of up to 30 m.
Q: Can I tell it to alert on people, on vehicles, or on both?
A: Yes, intrusion, motion detection, line crossing and the rules for entering or leaving a region can each be set to trigger on people, on vehicles or on both.
Q: Does the HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret come in black too?
A: Yes, the same model with the same 2.8 mm lens is sold in a black housing as HL-IPC-T581H-MU-0280-BLK, for homes and shops with dark trim.
Q: Can I watch this camera live from my phone?
A: Yes, through the Hik-Connect app on your phone; on a computer, iVMS-4200 or Hik-Central does the same job, and the camera supports live view on up to 6 channels.
Build a Complete HiLook System Starting With This 4K Turret
Record the HiLook IPC-T581H-MU 8MP 4K white turret on a HiLook PoE recorder: either the NVR-104MH-C/4P(D) or the NVR-108MH-C/8P(D) feeds it power through a PoE port and keeps its footage. Add more cameras from our HiLook IP Cameras and add Cat6 unshielded cable for the runs. If the property needs an intruder alarm as well, look at the AX Pro wireless alarms from Hikvision.
