Mascom International stocks the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T at KSh 3,400, a 2MP HDCVI bullet with a 3.6mm lens, 40-metre night illumination and two-way talk, ready for collection or delivery today. It is brand new and sealed. The Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T pairs infrared with warm light, records full HD 1080p video, and carries a microphone and speaker inside an IP67 body with a metal front cover. Our store sits at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, and we deliver across Kenya with payment on arrival.
Built for warehouse managers, school bursars, estate committees and farm owners across Kenya, the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T handles sites where the threat starts far from the door. A godown in Industrial Area, a school playground, or the back fence of a Ruaka estate often sits in deep shadow after 7 PM. Short-range cameras show only a dark blur at that distance. The Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T throws light twice as far as the 20-metre units in our range, so the far corner of the plot shows up clearly on the recorder. Its speaker lets a guard or owner challenge anyone at the fence without leaving the office.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops push cheap 20-metre bullets for every wall, Mascom International matches the camera to the distance you actually need to cover. At Mascom International, we're seeing more buyers mix this long-range unit on the perimeter with shorter-range cameras at doors, which keeps the total cost down. The Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T works best with a two-way talk recorder such as the Dahua XVR1B08-I/T. Walk into the store to see it running on a demo recorder, or send us your site layout on WhatsApp for a camera plan.
Common Questions About the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T
What is the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T price in Kenya?
The Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T sells for KSh 3,400 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, brand new in a sealed box. The price includes the camera, its mounting kit and a 12-month warranty, plus pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. You add a 12V power supply, coax cable and a recorder. The 20-metre Dahua HAC-HFW1200RLP-IL-T, which also has two-way talk, costs KSh 2,800, so the extra night reach on this model costs KSh 600 per camera.
Is the 40-metre Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T worth KSh 600 more than the 20-metre model?
Yes, the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T is worth the extra KSh 600 when the area you watch stretches beyond about 20 metres at night. Both cameras are 2MP HDCVI bullets with two-way talk. The difference is light: this model illuminates roughly double the distance, so a long driveway or yard stays visible instead of fading to black. For a gate, doorway or shop counter within 20 metres, the Dahua HAC-HFW1200RLP-IL-T records the same scene for less money.
Who should buy the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T, and who should skip it?
Buy the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T for perimeter walls, parking yards, warehouse aisles and school grounds where you need light far from the camera and a voice at the fence. Skip it for small rooms, corridors and doorways, where 40-metre light is wasted and can wash out nearby faces. A short-range eyeball such as the Dahua HAC-HDW1200TRQP-IL-T at KSh 2,800 suits indoor talk points better. Skip it as well if image detail matters more than range; the 5MP Dahua HAC-HFW1500RLP-IL-A records sharper footage.
How does the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T cope with Kenyan rain and dust?
The Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T is IP67 rated, meaning dust cannot enter and water during heavy downpours stays out. Its front cover is metal and its mounting bracket is metal too, which holds up well on exposed perimeter poles. It runs from -40°C to 60°C, so a rooftop in Garissa heat or a cold night in Limuru are both within range. Wipe the lens glass every few weeks during dry, dusty months, because dust on the glass softens night footage more than anything else.
Can a guard use the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T speaker to warn intruders?
Yes, the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T has a built-in speaker and microphone, and two-way talk lets a guard or owner speak through it from the recorder or the DMSS app. On an estate or warehouse, that means a challenge at the back fence from the guard house, with no need to walk into the dark. Audio travels on the same coax as the video. Your Dahua recorder must support two-way talk; the Dahua XVR1B08-I/T at KSh 6,300 handles eight such cameras.
How many Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T cameras can a small UPS carry?
The Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T draws at most 9.37 watts at 12V with its lights on, so four cameras use under 40 watts together. Add a DVR and router, and a small UPS still carries the system through a typical KPLC outage. Mascom International stocks UPS units and can size one for your camera count. Keeping the router powered matters too, because remote viewing over Safaricom or Airtel fibre stops the moment the router goes dark.
Does the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T record colour footage at night?
The Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T can record colour after dark when its warm light is switched on. It carries both infrared and warm light, so you choose between discreet black-and-white footage and colour footage that shows clothing and vehicle colours. On a compatible Dahua recorder, the camera can stay on infrared and switch to warm light when a person or vehicle is detected. Its rated minimum illumination is 0.01 lux in colour, so it keeps colour in faint light before the illuminators are needed.
Will the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T work with my old analogue DVR?
Yes, the Dahua HAC-HFW1200TLMP-IL-T switches between CVI, TVI, AHD and CVBS output, so it plays on most HD and older analogue recorders. On an old CVBS machine it drops to 960H resolution, which is lower than full HD. Two-way talk and the automatic warm light need a Dahua recorder that supports them. Bring your recorder model number to Mascom International and our staff will confirm which features will work before you buy a single camera.
Technical Specifications
Image Sensor and Picture
- 2MP CMOS sensor at 1920 x 1080 pixels — full HD video with enough detail to follow people moving across a yard.
- Minimum illumination of 0.01 lux in colour — the camera keeps colour in faint light from a distant street lamp.
- 0.001 lux in black and white — infrared footage stays usable in unlit corners of a compound.
- 1080p output over CVI, TVI and AHD — sharp playback and clear stills on most current HD recorders, including Dahua WizSense models.
- 0 lux operation with the illuminators on — records in complete darkness, such as an unlit warehouse yard.
Lens and Coverage
- Fixed 3.6mm lens — a moderate field of view that reaches further down a wall or driveway than a wide 2.8mm lens.
- Fixed focus with an M12 lens mount — nothing moves inside the lens, so the picture stays sharp year after year without any adjustment.
- Classic bullet shape that points openly at its target — a visible camera on a wall often discourages intruders before they try anything.
- Metal mounting bracket — holds its angle on poles and walls where wind and vibration would loosen plastic mounts.
- Adjustable bracket angle during installation — aim it along a fence line, down a driveway or across a parking bay in minutes.
Night Vision and Illumination
- Illumination up to 40 metres — double the reach of the 20-metre bullets in our range, for long perimeters and yards.
- Infrared and warm light combined — choose black-and-white footage at night or colour footage that shows clothing and vehicles.
- Automatic switching with a compatible Dahua recorder — infrared by default, warm light when a person or vehicle appears.
- Infrared mode for discreet watching — no visible glare that disturbs neighbours next door or alerts intruders to where the camera points.
- Warm light mode for constant colour — useful where a well-lit perimeter itself deters trespassers at night.
Audio and Video Output
- Built-in microphone — records voices, vehicle engines and other sounds near the camera together with the video, useful when reviewing an incident later.
- Built-in speaker — a guard or owner can speak to anyone standing near the camera, straight from the recorder screen or a phone.
- Two-way talk over the coax cable — no separate audio wiring, which keeps long cable runs simple and cheap.
- Switchable CVI, TVI, AHD and CVBS output — one camera that fits most HD recorders and older analogue machines, set by a simple switch.
- 960H resolution in CVBS mode — keeps working on legacy recorders until you are ready to upgrade.
Build Power and Weatherproofing
- IP67 protection — sealed against dust and protected against water, ready for exposed outdoor walls.
- Metal front cover with a plastic rear barrel — the exposed face resists knocks while the body stays light.
- Operating range of -40°C to 60°C — handles any Kenyan climate, from cold highland nights to hot coastal rooftops.
- 12V DC power with ±30% tolerance — runs on a standard CCTV supply and rides out voltage dips.
- Peak draw of 9.37 watts with lights on — plan your power supply, cable gauge and UPS size around this figure for each camera.
