Dahua T4A-LED is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 5,700, a 4MP turret camera that records 2560 by 1440 video over Wi-Fi or a network cable. Every unit we sell is brand new and sealed, straight from Dahua's distribution channel. The Dahua T4A-LED uses a 2.8mm F1.6 lens with a 98-degree horizontal view, two warm-light illuminators reaching up to 30 metres, and AI human detection. Footage saves to a microSD card of up to 256GB, and the IP67 housing handles dust and driving rain. Collect yours from the Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street in Nairobi CBD.
Designed for landlords, school bursars, clinic owners, logistics coordinators and families, the Dahua T4A-LED handles the job most cheap cameras fail at: showing who actually came through. A blurry figure at the gate helps nobody when you report a theft at the local police station. With four megapixels, you get clearer faces, clothing and vehicle details across a Westlands parking bay or an Eldoret shop front. It sips just 2.2 watts, so it barely registers on your KPLC token meter. Alerts go to the Dahua DMSS app the moment a person is detected.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that push no-name cameras with apps that vanish after a year, Mascom International stocks the Dahua T4A-LED from a maker with long-term app support and installer-grade software. At Mascom International, we're seeing more buyers choose the 4MP model once they compare footage side by side on our counter. It also has a wired RJ-45 port, a backup for sites where Wi-Fi struggles. Ask us to demonstrate it on your own phone in store, or order on WhatsApp and pay only when the Dahua T4A-LED reaches you.
Common Questions About the Dahua T4A-LED
What is the Dahua T4A-LED 4MP price in Kenya?
The Dahua T4A-LED sells for KSh 5,700 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, brand new and sealed. The price includes a 12-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya. A microSD card is not included and is sold separately. Our current stock of the 2MP Dahua T2A-LED is priced at KSh 6,300, so the 4MP Dahua T4A-LED is KSh 600 cheaper right now. Message us on WhatsApp to confirm stock before you visit.
Is the Dahua T4A-LED a better choice than the 2MP Dahua T2A-LED?
For most buyers, yes: the Dahua T4A-LED records 2560 by 1440, against 1920 by 1080 on the Dahua T2A-LED. That extra detail matters when you zoom into recorded footage to read a face or a plate. Both cameras share the F1.6 aperture, 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, a built-in microphone, AI human detection and IP67 sealing. The 4MP model also costs KSh 600 less in our current stock. Choose the 2MP model only if your memory card is small or your upload speed is slow, since 1080p files are lighter to store and stream.
Will the Dahua T4A-LED work on Safaricom or Airtel home internet?
Yes, the Dahua T4A-LED connects to any 2.4GHz router, including Safaricom Home Fibre, Airtel Kenya 5G routers, Zuku and Faiba. It keeps recording onto its memory card even when the internet drops, so short outages leave no gap in footage. For remote viewing on mobile data, set the stream to a lower bit rate to save bundles. If your router sits far away or behind thick stone walls, run a network cable to the RJ-45 port instead for a steadier link.
Who is the Dahua T4A-LED right for, and who should look elsewhere?
The Dahua T4A-LED fits homes, rental compounds, clinics, small schools and shops that need sharp footage of one entrance or room. It is a strong pick for anyone who wants to identify visitors, not just see movement, and for owners checking footage from Upper Hill offices. Look elsewhere if you need pan and tilt to follow people around a room, or zoom to watch a far gate. Large sites with many cameras, such as warehouses in Industrial Area, are better served by a wired recorder system that our team can price for you.
Can the Dahua T4A-LED read a car number plate?
The Dahua T4A-LED can capture a readable number plate when the car stops within a few metres of the camera. Its 4MP sensor and 98-degree view suit a gate or a parking spot, not a road far away. Mount it at the point where cars pause, such as the gate a guard opens. For plates at speed or over long distances, a dedicated plate-reading camera with a zoom lens is the right tool, and we can advise on one for estates and car yards.
How much electricity does the Dahua T4A-LED use each month?
The Dahua T4A-LED draws about 2.2 watts, which comes to roughly 1.6 kWh a month running nonstop. On KPLC prepaid tokens that costs less each month than a single matatu fare across town. The low draw also means a modest UPS can keep it running for hours during a blackout. Pair it with your router on the same UPS so alerts keep reaching your phone while the rest of the house is dark. Customers in Kitengela and Ruiru tell us this setup has saved footage during evening outages.
How wide an area does the Dahua T4A-LED cover?
The Dahua T4A-LED covers 98 degrees horizontally, 55 degrees vertically and 115 degrees diagonally through its 2.8mm lens. In practice, one camera mounted in a corner sees most of a typical shop floor, sitting room or office reception. For a long corridor or a large compound, you may need two units, one at each end, so blind spots near the walls are also covered. We can help you plan placement when you bring photos of the site to our Kimathi Street store.
What size memory card should I use with the Dahua T4A-LED?
The Dahua T4A-LED accepts microSD cards of up to 256GB, and that is the size we recommend for continuous recording. At its highest bit rate of 4096 kbps, the camera writes about 44GB a day, so 256GB holds close to six days. Lowering the bit rate or recording only on detected people stretches that to weeks. Choose a card rated for surveillance use, since constant writing wears out ordinary phone cards faster and can corrupt older footage without warning.
Technical Specifications
Sensor and Image
- 1/3-inch CMOS sensor — the chip that turns light into a picture, sized for clear indoor, veranda and porch footage at short range.
- 2560 by 1440 top resolution — four megapixels, roughly twice the detail of a 1080p camera, for sharper faces.
- Main stream at up to 25 or 30 frames per second — smooth motion, so a walking visitor or passing boda boda is not a blur on playback.
- AI human detection — classifies people separately from pets, branches and headlights, so phone alerts stay meaningful.
- Built-in microphone — records audio alongside video, helpful for checking what was said at a reception desk or a pharmacy counter.
Lens and Field of View
- 2.8mm fixed lens — a wide, set view with no moving parts that can wear out, jam or slip after installation.
- F1.6 wide aperture — a large opening that gathers more light, keeping evening, dusk and indoor scenes brighter without extra lighting.
- 98-degree horizontal view — enough to cover most of a shop floor, classroom or sitting room from one corner.
- 55-degree vertical and 115-degree diagonal view — covers floor to door frame when mounted at ceiling height in a hallway.
- Colour and black and white modes — switch between full colour detail and a quieter monochrome picture after dark.
Night Illumination and Video
- Two warm-light illuminators — soft yellow lights that keep footage in colour when the sun goes down, without the harsh glare of white floodlights.
- Illumination range up to 30 metres — enough to light a long driveway, parking row, farm store or school corridor.
- Automatic light control — the camera turns its lamps on and off by itself as daylight changes, with no timer to set.
- H.265 compression — about half the file size of older formats, so your memory card holds more days before overwriting.
- Bit rate from 12 to 4096 kbps on H.265 — trade a little quality for longer storage or lighter mobile data use on Safaricom bundles.
Storage and Power
- MicroSD slot up to 256GB — local recording that keeps working when the internet or app goes offline.
- About 44GB a day at the top bit rate — a 256GB card stores close to six days of nonstop video.
- 12V DC power input — the same supply type used by most CCTV gear, simple to back up with a small UPS during outages.
- 2.2 watts basic power draw — around 1.6 kWh a month, a tiny share of a household's KPLC token budget.
- 323 grams with a 109.9mm diameter — light and compact enough for a plastic ceiling board or wall plug.
Connectivity and Build
- Wi-Fi on 802.11b, g and n at 2.4GHz — the band that reaches farther through the stone and concrete walls common in Kenyan buildings.
- RJ-45 port at 10/100 Mbps — plug in a network cable when Wi-Fi is weak or you want a steadier link.
- Dahua DMSS app for Android and iOS — live view, playback and person alerts from anywhere with a data connection.
- SmartPSS and DSS software support — view this camera with others on a Windows computer at your office.
- IP67 rating and minus 40 to 60 degree Celsius range — sealed against dust and rain, with heat tolerance to spare.
