Condition: New

Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 5,200, as a brand new and sealed 4MP eyeball network camera. It records at 2560 × 1440 through a 2.8mm fixed lens, sees up to 30 metres in the dark, and carries a built-in microphone so every clip has sound. The Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL runs from a PoE recorder or a 12V adapter, so one network cable can carry both power and video. Visit our showroom at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, and watch the picture on a live screen before you pay.
Built for homeowners, landlords, shop owners and small office managers across Kenya, the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL watches doorways, corridors, parking bays and gates. Most budget cameras record night video in grey, so a face or a car colour gets lost. The Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL keeps its infrared on after dark and switches on warm light when a person walks into view, giving you colour video of the moment that matters. Estate agents fitting rental blocks, school bursars covering a gate and pharmacy owners watching a counter all get a clear record without paying for a larger system.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell grey-import cameras with no support, Mascom International stocks genuine Dahua units with a local warranty and staff who help match each camera to your recorder. At Mascom International, we're seeing more buyers choose the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL for homes and shops because the eyeball shape sits close to the ceiling and is hard to knock out of position. Customers across Nairobi tell us the colour night clips are what won them over. Order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery to any of the 47 counties, or collect yours in Nairobi CBD today.
Common Questions About the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL
How much is the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL in Kenya?
The Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL costs KSh 5,200 brand new and sealed at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the camera and a 12-month warranty through Mascom International. A power adapter and network cable are not in the box, so plan for a PoE recorder or a 12V adapter plus Cat6 cable. Delivery is pay-on-arrival anywhere in Kenya. If you only need a basic wireless camera, the 2MP Dahua IPC-HDW1230DT-STW WiFi eyeball costs KSh 2,500, which is KSh 2,700 less.
Should I buy the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL or the Dahua IPC-HDW1439V-A-IL?
The Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL costs KSh 5,200, while the Dahua IPC-HDW1439V-A-IL Entry eyeball costs KSh 6,000, a gap of KSh 800. Both are 4MP eyeballs with Dahua's dual light system, a 2.8mm lens and a built-in microphone. The Entry line sits one step above ECO in Dahua's range and is the usual choice for installers building larger business systems. The ECO model does the same core job, colour clips of people at night, for less money per camera. Choose ECO for homes and small shops; choose Entry for bigger commercial sites.
Will the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL keep recording during KPLC power cuts?
The Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL keeps recording through a KPLC outage only when its PoE recorder or switch runs on a UPS. Because the camera takes power through the network cable, one UPS at the recorder backs up every PoE camera connected to it. That is simpler than putting a battery at each camera position. Mascom International stocks UPS units and the Dahua NVR1104HS-P-S3/H 4-channel PoE recorder at KSh 9,000, and our staff can size a UPS to your full camera load in store.
How does the dual light mode work on the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL?
The dual light mode on the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL keeps infrared running at night and turns on warm light only when a person enters the scene. Infrared gives black-and-white video up to 30 metres without visible glare. When someone walks in, the warm light switches on and the camera records in colour, so clothing and faces are easier to describe. Once the scene is empty again, the warm light goes off. Your neighbours are not dazzled all night, and you still get colour for every event.
Does the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL record sound?
Yes, the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL has a built-in microphone that records audio alongside the video. That helps a shop owner check what was said at the till, or a parent confirm what happened at the gate. There is no speaker, so it cannot talk back to visitors. Audio quality suits voices within a few metres of the camera rather than across a large compound. Your recorder must have audio recording switched on, which our staff can set up for you when you buy the camera in store.
Can the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL be mounted outdoors?
The Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL carries an IP67 rating, so it is dust-tight and protected against rain and water. You can fit it under eaves, on a veranda ceiling or on an outside wall. For long life in Kenyan weather, mount it where it is shaded from direct afternoon sun and seal the cable joint inside a junction box. Buyers in Mombasa and other coastal towns should keep the cable connector covered, because salty humid air corrodes exposed copper faster than inland air.
Which recorder works with the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL?
The Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL pairs most easily with a Dahua PoE recorder, which powers the camera and stores its footage on one cable. For a home with up to four cameras, the Dahua NVR1104HS-P-S3/H costs KSh 9,000 at Mascom International. For up to eight cameras, the Dahua NVR1108HS-8P-S3/H costs KSh 12,000, which is KSh 3,000 more. Both take one surveillance hard drive, sold separately. Using the same brand for camera and recorder keeps human detection alerts and phone viewing simple to configure.
Who should buy the Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL and who should skip it?
The Dahua IPC-T1E49P-A-IL suits homes, small shops, clinics and offices that want 4MP colour night clips at a low price per camera. It covers doorways, counters and small compounds well. Skip it if you need to watch a long driveway or perimeter fence, where the narrow view of a longer lens or a bullet housing serves better. Skip it too if you want a camera that speaks or flashes at intruders; the Dahua IPC-HDW1439V-PV active deterrence eyeball at KSh 7,100 is the better fit for that job.
Technical Specifications
Sensor and Image
- 4MP progressive-scan CMOS sensor at 2560 × 1440 — about 1.8 times the pixels of a 1080p camera, so faces hold more detail.
- Main stream up to 25 or 30 frames per second — smooth motion, so a person crossing the frame does not jump between images.
- Sub stream at 704 × 576 — a lighter second feed that loads quickly on your phone over mobile data.
- Digital wide dynamic range (DWDR) — balances a bright doorway against a dark room, so a visitor in sunlight is not a silhouette.
- 3D noise reduction — cleans the grainy speckle that appears in low light and keeps recorded files smaller.
Lens and Field of View
- 2.8mm fixed-focal lens — a wide view that suits sitting rooms, shop floors, corridors and small compounds.
- F1.6 aperture — a wide opening that lets in more light, so the camera stays in colour longer as evening falls.
- Focus set at the factory — nothing to adjust or drift, so the picture stays sharp after installation.
- Ball-joint eyeball mount — swivel and tilt the lens by hand to aim at a gate, till or door before tightening it.
- Best for faces within a few metres — place it near entry points rather than across a large yard.
Night Vision and Illumination
- Infrared range up to 30 metres — black-and-white video across a typical compound or parking area in total darkness.
- Warm light illuminators — produce full-colour night video, so you can tell clothing colours and car paint apart.
- Dual light mode — infrared stays on by default and warm light switches on only when a person enters the scene.
- Less light pollution — warm light switches off once the scene clears, so neighbours and passing drivers are not dazzled.
- Automatic day and night switching — moves between colour and night mode on its own as light levels change.
Video Compression and Human Detection
- H.265 compression — smaller files than older H.264 at similar picture quality, so a drive holds more days of footage.
- H.265+ — Dahua's extra compression for scenes with little movement, stretching recording time on the same drive further.
- Region of interest (ROI) — spends more detail on a chosen area, such as a till or door, and saves space elsewhere.
- Human detection — flags people rather than every swaying branch, so phone alerts point to real events.
- Digital watermarking — marks recorded footage so any tampering shows if you hand a clip to police or an insurer.
Connectivity and Power
- One RJ-45 network port — a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable carries video to your recorder or PoE switch.
- PoE power input — draws power through the same network cable, so no socket is needed at the camera position.
- 12V DC input — runs from a separate 12V adapter where your recorder or switch has no PoE ports.
- Built-in microphone — records audio with the video, useful for checking conversations at a counter or gate.
- DMSS app viewing — watch live and recorded video on Android or iPhone through a connected Dahua recorder.
Build and Installation
- Full ordering code DH-IPC-T1E49P-A-IL-0280B-S3 — the 0280B in the code confirms the 2.8mm lens version.
- IP67 rating — dust-tight and protected against rain, so it can sit under eaves or on an outside wall.
- Compact eyeball housing — sits close to the ceiling or wall, which makes it hard to knock out of position.
- White finish — blends with most painted ceilings and walls in homes, shops and offices.
- Wall or ceiling mounting — fixes with standard screws, and a junction box hides the cable joint for a tidy finish.
