HiLook IPC-T361H-MU 6MP Black AI Turret, Human & Vehicle Detection, 2.8mm, Dual Mic, 30m Night Vision, IP67, PoE Camera (HL-IPC-T361H-MU-0280-BLK)

The HiLook IPC-T361H-MU 6MP black turret is for the buyer who has settled on HiLook’s 6MP AI turret and wants it in black: a homeowner whose house is finished in charcoal and dark brick, a salon or studio with a black frontage, or an installer matching a client’s dark colour scheme. It is the one black model in the range, offered with the 2.8 mm lens, and it carries the same human and vehicle detection, dual-microphone audio and infrared as the white version, so the housing colour is the one choice left to make.

Inside the black housing, a 1/2.4-inch progressive-scan CMOS works behind a fixed 2.8 mm F1.6 lens and records 3200 × 1800 at 25 fps on Australia’s 50 Hz power, in three streams. HiLook’s datasheet lists it as the 6 MP Intelligent Dual IR Fixed Turret Network Camera, and its Australian page names it the 6 MP AI Fixed Turret Network Camera: a HiLook turret camera that labels movement as people or vehicles, keeps the sound with the picture and takes its power from the cable that carries its video.

Human and Vehicle Detection — Each Rule Filtered to People and Vehicles, With a Tampering Alarm

Three rules on the HiLook IPC-T361H-MU 6MP black turret draw on its deep-learning classification of people and vehicles: line crossing, intrusion and motion. The alerts from each are filterable by people and vehicles, so one rule can be kept to people and another to vehicles. A video tampering alarm adds an event of its own. For each event, pick the response: a recording or a capture, an email, an upload to FTP, a NAS or the memory card, or a notice to the surveillance centre.

Night Vision to 30 Metres — Colour in Low Light, Black and White Under Infrared

As dusk settles, the HiLook IPC-T361H-MU 6MP black turret keeps a colour image down to 0.005 lux at F1.6. When the light fails it changes to black and white, and its 850 nm smart IR takes the night picture out to 30 m, recording at 0 lux — the reach of this night vision camera on HiLook’s own sheet. Daylight brings the opposite test, and the 120 dB true WDR meets it with clear imaging against strong back light, backed by BLC, HLC and 3D DNR for a bright sky behind a visitor, glaring lights and grain in the gloom.

Dual Microphone Audio — Listen-Only Sound Recorded With the Video

Two microphones are built into the HiLook IPC-T361H-MU 6MP black turret as an array, with environment noise filtering, and they record real-time audio alongside the picture, keeping the words spoken beside the image on playback. Listening is as far as it goes: there is no speaker, no audio out and no two-way talk, so the camera cannot answer a caller or sound a warning. A buyer who wants to speak through a camera needs a different model; a buyer who wants the voices kept with the footage has them here.

Power Over One Cable — PoE or 12 V, Storage on a Card, a Black Body Rated IP67

The HiLook IPC-T361H-MU 6MP black turret runs on IEEE 802.3af Class 3 PoE at up to 9.5 W, so a single Cat6 cable from the recorder’s PoE port or a PoE switch brings it power, video and sound, and the camera needs no power point of its own. Where PoE is not on hand, a 12 V DC supply runs it at up to 8 W. A card of up to 512 GB in its microSD slot holds event uploads (MicroSD card not included). The black metal housing carries an IP67 rating and works from -30 °C up to 60 °C; it is 127.3 mm across, 96.3 mm high and about 515 g, and the optional DS-1280ZJ-DM8 junction box, sold separately, houses the cable connection.

Where the HiLook IPC-T361H-MU 6MP black turret Earns Its Place

🏡 Homes finished in charcoal, black or dark brick — a black turret that stays in tone with the trim, keeps the sound with the picture and flags people or vehicles on the rules you set

🏢 Salons, clinics and small offices with a dark frontage — 6MP recording, sound on each clip and people-or-vehicle filters on its alerts

🔧 Installers matching a dark colour scheme on a HiLook job — one Cat6 run at up to 9.5 W on an 802.3af port, ONVIF Profile S and G for another maker’s recorder, and the white model’s 6MP AI turret in a black body

From HiLook’s datasheet for the HiLook IPC-T361H-MU 6MP black turret:

Which to buy: this black turret or the IPC-B261H-MU-0280 bullet?

Both record 6MP at 3200 × 1800 through a 2.8 mm lens and classify humans and vehicles by deep learning. Choose the bullet for 40 m of infrared; the turret for the dual microphone, the 512GB slot and the lower body, sold here in white and black.
