Need the PDF datasheet? Get it on WhatsApp →The Uniarch IPC-B122-APF28(40)K is a 2MP mini fixed bullet network camera. It provides up to 30 m of smart infrared night vision, MicroSD edge storage, powers over a single PoE cable, and carries an IP67 outdoor rating with a −30 °C to 60 °C working range. It is offered with two fixed lenses: 2.8 mm (AF28, wider view) or 4.0 mm (AF40, longer reach).
Is this the right camera for you?
Plain-language guide for buyers and installers — based only on what this camera actually does.
- Full-color night vision — this is IR-only, night video is black & white, not color
- Two-way talk — it has a mic but no speaker
- Wi-Fi — this is a wired RJ45 camera
- Zoom — the lens is fixed (2.8 or 4.0 mm, chosen at purchase)
- Alarm in/out wiring for sirens or sensors

Key Features
Complete list from the official datasheet.
Night Vision: Smart IR
Invisible infrared night vision — this model has no warm-light module.
Invisible infrared — discreet black & white night vision
Smart IR up to 30 m (98.4 ft.) at 850 nm. The camera watches without lighting up the scene — nothing shows it is recording. This model has a single IR illuminator only, no warm-light module.
How far can it see? (DORI)
DORI (EN 62676-4) is the industry standard for what a camera can do at distance. Switch the lens buttons above to compare.
How wide a view at each distance
Scene width covered at typical mounting distances — the number you need to work out how many cameras a wall, yard or aisle takes.
| Distance | AF28 · 101.1° | AF40 · 83.7° |
|---|---|---|
| 5 m16 ft | 12.2 m39.9 ft | 9.0 m29.4 ft |
| 10 m33 ft | 24.3 m79.7 ft | 17.9 m58.8 ft |
| 15 m49 ft | 36.5 m120 ft | 26.9 m88.2 ft |
| 20 m66 ft | 48.6 m159 ft | 35.8 m118 ft |
| 30 m98 ft | 72.9 m239 ft | 53.7 m176 ft |
Calculated from the horizontal field of view in the specifications below: width = 2 × distance × tan(FOV ÷ 2). Lens distortion and mounting angle are not included.
Who uses it, where it goes and how to install it
Written for the Uniarch IPC-B122-APF28(40)K from its own specifications: 2 MP, 2.8 mm or 4.0 mm fixed lens, 30 m Smart IR, MicroSD slot, PoE or 12 V DC.
Who it is for
- Installers on a tight budget — A 2 MP bullet that takes either PoE (IEEE 802.3af) or a 12 V DC adapter and draws at most 3.2 W, so it fits small PoE switches and sites where some runs have no PoE.
- Small shops and kiosks without an NVR — The MicroSD slot records on the camera itself, and the built-in mic adds sound at the counter. Unlike the cheaper ECO models (B132-ECO), this one keeps the card slot.
- Homes, yards and gates — Invisible 850 nm Smart IR up to 30 m gives black-and-white night video without lighting up the yard, so nothing shows the camera is recording.
- Warehouses and site perimeters — IP67 body and a −30 °C to 60 °C working range for outdoor walls and poles; the 4.0 mm version recognizes a known person up to 12.9 m along a fence or driveway.
Where and how to install
- Height and angle — Mount at about 2.5–3.5 m with a shallow downward tilt. Lower is easy to tamper with; much higher shows the top of heads instead of faces.
- Faces need a choke point — Aim at a door, gate or corridor where people walk toward the camera, within the identify distance: 4.5 m with the 2.8 mm lens, 6.4 m with the 4.0 mm lens.
- Keep IR from bouncing back — Do not mount tight under eaves or next to a wall, gutter or pole that sits inside the picture: the IR reflects back and turns the night image white. Keep branches and cobwebs away from the lens.
- Weather, cable joint and surge — The body is IP67, but the RJ45 and 12 V tail is not: put it in the TR-JB05-A-IN junction box and seal the cable entry with the TR-A01-IN gland. Surge protection is 4 kV; on poles or long outdoor runs add a surge protector and earthing.
- Brackets — Pole: TR-UP06-B-IN, or TR-UP06-C-IN-V2 when the junction box is used; outside building corners: TR-UC08-C-V2. The 3-axis mount (tilt 0–90°, rotate 0–360°) lets you level the picture on a sloped wall.
- Power and cable — Use Cat5e or Cat6 copper up to 100 m from the PoE switch or NVR. Where there is no PoE, use a 12 V DC adapter with a Ø5.5 mm plug (12 V ±25%).
2.8 mm or 4.0 mm: what you actually see
Same 2 MP sensor, different lens. The 2.8 mm covers about 12.2 m of width at 5 m, the 4.0 mm about 9.0 m. In return the 4.0 mm reaches about 1.4× farther for faces (6.4 m against 4.5 m) and puts about 107 pixels on each meter at 10 m against about 79 for the 2.8 mm.
| APF28K · 2.8 mm | APF40K · 4.0 mm | |
|---|---|---|
| Horizontal view angle | 101.1° | 83.7° |
| Width covered at 5 m | 12.2 m | 9.0 m |
| Width covered at 10 m | 24.3 m | 17.9 m |
| Pixels per meter at 10 m | 79 px/m | 107 px/m |
| Identify a stranger's face up to | 4.5 m | 6.4 m |
| Recognize someone you know up to | 9.0 m | 12.9 m |
| Observe what is happening up to | 18.0 m | 25.7 m |
| Detect that something is there up to | 45.0 m | 64.3 m |
- Pick 2.8 mm for a shop floor, a small yard or a door seen from close: from 5 m it covers 12.2 m of width.
- Pick 4.0 mm for a gate, driveway or corridor 5–7 m away: faces stay identifiable to 6.4 m and known people recognizable to 12.9 m.
- At night the IR reaches 30 m, so beyond that distance the detect figures (45.0 m / 64.3 m) apply only where there is other lighting.
Widths are calculated from the horizontal view angle (width = 2 × distance × tan(angle ÷ 2)); pixels per meter = horizontal pixels ÷ width at 10 m; face distances are the manufacturer's DORI figures.
