The Uniview IPC254EB-DX22GK-I0 is a 4MP LightHunter WDR network bullet camera built around a 6.5-143 mm lens with 22X optical zoom plus 16X digital zoom, so the same mounting position can cover a wide entry view or a distant detail shot. It combines 120 dB WDR and LightHunter low-light imaging (color down to 0.001 Lux) with a 150 m Smart IR illuminator, smart intrusion prevention with human/vehicle classification, people counting, and up to 4-lane license-plate capture. It has an IP67 outdoor housing with a built-in heater for cold starts, and powers over PoE (802.3at) or AC 24V, with a −40 °C to 70 °C working range.
Is this the right camera for you?
Plain-language guide for buyers and installers — based only on what this camera actually does.
Long perimeters & fence linesZoomed to 143 mm, DORI Identify reaches 214.5 m (703.7 ft.) — one camera can watch a whole fence line without blind spots.
Toll gates & vehicle lanesTraffic monitoring captures license plates on up to 4 lanes as vehicles cross a tripwire — set up for high-pole or low-pole mounting.
Warehouse & site perimetersIP67 body and −40 to 70 °C rating survive rain, dust and heat; a built-in heater keeps it starting up in the cold.
Residential compoundsSmart intrusion prevention classifies people, non-motor vehicles and vehicles — fewer false alerts from stray animals or moving branches.
Small offices & receptionUltra 265 compression and triple streaming keep recordings small — more days of footage on the same NVR disk.
Kiosks & remote polesOne PoE cable does power + video, or run AC 24V where PoE isn't available — quick to install and move.
Not the right pick if you need…
- Wi-Fi — this is a wired RJ45/SFP camera
- Built-in speaker/mic — audio uses wired I/O terminals for an external mic and speaker, not on-body audio hardware
- Remote motorized pan-tilt (PTZ) — pan/tilt/rotate adjustment here is a manual mounting aim, not a steerable PTZ head

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 | 60.5° wide | 3.5° tele |
|---|---|---|
| 5 m16 ft | 5.8 m19.1 ft | 0.3 m1.0 ft |
| 10 m33 ft | 11.7 m38.2 ft | 0.6 m2.0 ft |
| 15 m49 ft | 17.5 m57.4 ft | 0.9 m3.0 ft |
| 20 m66 ft | 23.3 m76.5 ft | 1.2 m4.0 ft |
| 30 m98 ft | 35.0 m115 ft | 1.8 m6.0 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 IPC254EB-DX22GK-I0 from its own specifications: 4 MP, 6.5–143 mm lens with 22X optical zoom, 150 m Smart IR, PoE (802.3at) or AC 24 V, RJ45 + SFP.
Who it is for
- Perimeter and long-distance security — Factories, farms, mines and solar plants with long fences: at 143 mm a face is identifiable up to 214.5 m, and the 150 m IR keeps the fence visible at night.
- Vehicle gates, toll and site entrances — Traffic monitoring captures a plate picture when a car crosses a tripwire, on up to 4 lanes, with high-pole or low-pole mode to match the mounting.
- Hot, cold and dusty sites — IP67 body rated −40 °C to 70 °C with a built-in heater for cold starts, plus Heatwave Reduction and digital defog for long views over hot ground or in haze.
- System integrators — Alarm I/O 2/1, RS485, audio in/out terminals for two-way audio, an SFP fibre port next to the gigabit RJ45, and ONVIF Profile S/G/T/M for third-party platforms.
- Public areas and large venues — Squares, car parks and campus roads: people flow counting and crowd density monitoring, and object left behind / object removed alerts.
Where and how to install
- A rigid mount is everything — At 143 mm the view is only 3.49° wide, so the smallest sway of a pole shakes the picture. Use a solid wall or a thick, short steel pole, not a thin lamp post or a mast that moves in wind; the camera weighs 3.7 kg.
- Junction box and pole bracket — Use the TR-JB07-D-IN junction box (supports wiring from behind) to hold the power, network, fibre, alarm and audio tails, with the TR-A01-IN 3/4" gland for conduit. On a pole add TR-UP06-C-IN-V2, which mounts the junction box.
- Height and aiming — For faces at an entrance, mount at about 2.5–3.5 m and zoom in rather than climbing higher. For a distant gate or road, a higher mount is fine because the downward angle stays small over long distances; pick high-pole or low-pole mode for plate capture to match.
- Power: PoE+ or AC 24 V — The camera draws up to 16 W, so it needs an IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) port; a plain 802.3af port is not enough. Without PoE, use AC 24 V on the cold-pressed wire terminals from a proper 24 V AC transformer.
- Long runs: use the SFP port — Copper Ethernet stops at 100 m per run. For a fence corner or gate farther from the network cabinet, run fibre into the 100M/1000M SFP port and power the camera locally with AC 24 V.
- Surge, earthing and IR — Surge protection is 6 kV; on tall poles earth the pole and add surge protectors on copper and power lines. Keep branches, wires and the pole top out of the picture: at night the IR reflects off anything close to the lens.
6.5 mm to 143 mm: what you actually see
One camera, any setting between these two columns. At 6.5 mm it covers about 58.3 m of width at 50 m; at 143 mm only about 3.0 m — enough to fill the frame with one vehicle or person. At 100 m the tele end still puts about 441 pixels on each meter of the scene. At night the 150 m IR range is the practical limit, whatever the daytime DORI says.
| Wide · 6.5 mm | Tele · 143 mm | |
|---|---|---|
| Horizontal view angle | 60.47° | 3.49° |
| Width covered at 10 m | 11.7 m | 0.6 m |
| Width covered at 50 m | 58.3 m | 3.0 m |
| Width covered at 100 m | 116.6 m | 6.1 m |
| Pixels per meter at 100 m | ≈23 | ≈441 |
| Identify a stranger's face up to | 9.8 m | 214.5 m |
| Recognize someone you know up to | 19.5 m | 429.0 m |
| Detect that something is there up to | 97.5 m | 2145.0 m |
- Stay near 6.5 mm for an overview of a yard, car park or gate area: at 10 m it covers about 11.7 m of width.
- Zoom toward 143 mm to watch one distant point, such as a gate or a fence section 100–200 m away: a face is still identifiable at 214.5 m by day.
- Zoomed in, the camera sees one narrow strip only. Pair it with a wide camera for the overview, and keep night targets inside the 150 m IR range.
Widths are calculated from the horizontal view angle (width = 2 × distance × tan(angle ÷ 2)); pixels per meter = 2688 ÷ width; face distances are the manufacturer's DORI figures, by day and without digital zoom.

4MP 22X Zoom Bullet FAQ — IPC254EB-DX22GK-I0
How far can it identify a face or read a plate?
At full 143 mm telephoto the DORI identify range is 214.5 m, with recognize at 429 m and detect out to 2145 m. The 22X optical zoom plus 16X digital zoom lets one camera watch a long approach road that would otherwise need several fixed units.
What is the IR range at night?
Smart IR reaches up to 150 m at 850 nm with Auto or Manual control, matched to the long zoom so targets stay lit when you zoom in. Minimum illumination is 0.001 lux in color and 0 lux with IR, on a 1/1.8-inch LightHunter sensor.
Can it capture vehicle plates on a road?
Yes — traffic monitoring captures a car license picture when the vehicle crosses a tripwire, across up to 4 lanes, with high-pole and low-pole application modes. Smart Intrusion Prevention adds cross-line, intrusion, enter and leave-area rules with false-alarm filtering.
What power options does it accept?
Two options: PoE over the network cable, or AC24V where you already have local power on the pole. The IP67 housing is sealed for outdoor mounting, and heatwave reduction keeps long-range telephoto images stable over hot roads and rooftops.
What streams and bandwidth should I plan for?
Triple streams: a 4 MP (2688×1520) main stream at up to 30 fps, a 1080P sub stream and a D1 third stream, each up to 30 fps. Bitrate is configurable from 128 Kbps to 16 Mbps with Ultra 265 and U-code, so you can tune quality per link.
Does it include people counting?
Yes — it supports people flow counting and crowd density monitoring, plus exception detection for object removed and object left behind. For a market, terminal or depot entrance, this gives basic footfall statistics from the same camera doing perimeter work.
Why does the IPC254EB-DX22GK-I0 picture shake when zoomed in, and how do I fix it?
At 143 mm the view is only 3.49° wide, so a pole movement of a few millimetres moves the image by a large part of the frame; the page does not list image stabilization. The fix is mechanical: mount on a solid wall or a thick, short steel pole, tighten the bracket fully, and avoid thin lamp posts, roof edges that flex, or masts next to heavy traffic. If some shake remains in strong wind, zoom out a little; a wider setting is far less sensitive.
Long-range images from the IPC254EB-DX22GK-I0 look wavy or hazy in the heat. What helps?
That is heat shimmer from hot air over the ground, and it grows with distance and zoom. Turn on Heatwave Reduction, and digital defog for dust or haze; both are listed on this camera. Also mount higher so the line of sight is not just above hot asphalt or sheet roofs, and where you need faces or plates, place the target point closer instead of relying on full 143 mm at the longest distance.
Can I connect the IPC254EB-DX22GK-I0 over fibre instead of copper cable?
Yes. Besides the 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 it has a 100M/1000M SFP port, so you can run fibre beyond the 100 m limit of copper. Fibre carries no power, so power the camera at the pole with AC 24 V (or a local PoE+ source). The page also lists optical-to-network serial connection to reduce wiring; tell us your planned topology and the SFP module type and we will confirm before you order.
Will the IPC254EB-DX22GK-I0 work with a Hikvision, Dahua or other non-Uniview NVR or VMS?
Usually yes for video: it supports ONVIF Profile S, G, T and M plus RTSP, which most third-party NVRs and VMS use. Live view and recording work over ONVIF; zoom control, plate capture, people counting and smart intrusion events are fully supported on Uniview NVRs and may be limited or arrive as basic events on other brands. Tell us your NVR or VMS model and which functions you need, and we will confirm before you order.
How do I wire a siren, sensors and a speaker to the IPC254EB-DX22GK-I0?
It has 2 alarm inputs for detectors or door contacts and 1 alarm output to trigger a device. The datasheet does not list the output's electrical rating, so switch a siren or floodlight through an external relay with its own supply. There is no built-in mic or speaker: two-way audio uses the line-level terminals (input 1 kΩ, output 600 Ω, 2.5 V p-p), so add an external microphone and an amplified speaker. All tails go into the TR-JB07-D-IN junction box.
