Need the PDF datasheet? Get it on WhatsApp →The Uniview IPC3618LE-ADF28(40)KC-DL is an 8MP fixed eyeball network camera with a 1/2.8" CMOS sensor from the ColorHunter dual-light line. It combines 30 m infrared and 30 m warm-light illumination for full-color ColorHunter night vision, includes a built-in mic and speaker for two-way audio, 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 (ADF28KC, wider view) or 4.0 mm (ADF40KC, longer reach).
Is this the right camera for you?
Plain-language guide for buyers and installers — based only on what this camera actually does.
- Wi-Fi — this is a wired RJ45 camera
- Optical zoom — the lens is fixed (2.8 or 4.0 mm, chosen at purchase)
- Analog video output — this is a network-only camera, no analog output port
- Alarm in/out wiring for sirens or sensors

ColorHunter Dual Light: two ways to see the night
Switchable Auto/Manual — set it per site, per customer.
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.
Visible warm light — ColorHunter full-color and active deterrence
Warm white light up to 30 m (98.4 ft.) keeps faces and clothing colors visible at night — and tells intruders the area is watched.
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 | KC · 98.7° | KC · 83.1° |
|---|---|---|
| 5 m16 ft | 11.6 m38.2 ft | 8.9 m29.1 ft |
| 10 m33 ft | 23.3 m76.4 ft | 17.7 m58.2 ft |
| 15 m49 ft | 34.9 m115 ft | 26.6 m87.2 ft |
| 20 m66 ft | 46.6 m153 ft | 35.5 m116 ft |
| 30 m98 ft | 69.9 m229 ft | 53.2 m174 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 IPC3618LE-ADF28(40)KC-DL from its own specifications: 8 MP (3840 × 2160 at 20 fps), fixed 2.8 mm (98.7°) or 4.0 mm (83.1°) lens, dual light with 30 m IR and 30 m warm light, two-way audio, PoE.
Who it is for
- Shops, pharmacies and kiosks — Color video at night shows clothing and vehicle colors for evidence, and the built-in mic and speaker let the owner speak to someone at the door or window from the app.
- Homes, gates and driveways — The visible warm light shows visitors in color and tells intruders the property is watched; the ADF40KC identifies a face at a gate up to 12.4 m away.
- Residential compounds and small sites — Cross-line and intrusion based on human body detection alert on people, not animals; a MicroSD card up to 512 GB records in the camera even when the NVR or network is down.
- Installers who need one model for day and night — Switch between discreet IR and color warm light per site with Auto/Manual light control; ONVIF Profile S/G/T and one PoE cable keep integration simple.
Where and how to install
- Height and angle — Mount at about 2.5–3.5 m on a wall or ceiling; the 3-axis bracket tilts 0–90°. Keep the downward angle shallow so you record faces, not the tops of heads.
- Faces need a choke point — Aim at a door, gate or counter that people walk toward, within the identify distance: 8.7 m with the ADF28KC, 12.4 m with the ADF40KC.
- Keep the light cone clear — Do not mount tight under eaves or beside a wall that sits in the picture: the warm light and IR reflect back and wash out the image. Do not mount behind glass, and do not point the 30 m warm light at a neighbor's windows.
- Avoid strong backlight — 120 dB WDR helps at a bright entrance, but placement matters more: do not aim straight at the setting sun or at headlights coming through a gate.
- Weather, cable and surge — The body is IP67 and works from -30 °C to 60 °C, but protect the RJ45 and 12 V tail in the TR-JB03-I-IN junction box (wiring from behind) or with a TR-A01-IN cable gland. Surge protection is 4 kV; on poles or long outdoor runs add a surge protector and earthing.
- Brackets — Wall: TR-WM03-D-IN-V2, TR-WM07P-B or the TR-JB07/WM03-G-IN-V2 assembly; building corner: TR-UC08-C-V2; high indoor ceilings: TR-CM24-IN with a TR-SE24-IN (200 mm) or TR-SE24-A-IN (500 mm) pendant pole.
2.8 mm or 4.0 mm: what you actually see
Same 8 MP sensor and the same 30 m IR and warm light, different lens. The ADF40KC sees about 1.4× farther (identify 12.4 m vs 8.7 m) but covers about a quarter less width. At 10 m it puts about 217 pixels on every meter of the scene versus about 165 for the ADF28KC.
| ADF28KC · 2.8 mm | ADF40KC · 4.0 mm | |
|---|---|---|
| Horizontal view angle | 98.7° | 83.1° |
| Width covered at 5 m | 11.6 m | 8.9 m |
| Width covered at 10 m | 23.3 m | 17.7 m |
| Pixels per meter at 10 m | ≈ 165 px/m | ≈ 217 px/m |
| Identify a stranger's face up to | 8.7 m | 12.4 m |
| Recognize someone you know up to | 17.4 m | 24.8 m |
| Observe what is happening up to | 34.8 m | 49.7 m |
| Detect that something is there up to (daylight) | 87.0 m | 124.2 m |
| IR / warm light distance | 30 m / 30 m | 30 m / 30 m |
- Pick ADF28KC for a shop front, yard or parking area seen from close: from 5 m away it covers 11.6 m of width.
- Pick ADF40KC for a gate or driveway 9–12 m away: a face is still identifiable at 12.4 m.
- At night, color and detail end where the light ends: plan night coverage within the 30 m light range, not the daytime detect distance.
Widths are calculated from the horizontal view angle (width = 2 × distance × tan(angle ÷ 2)); pixels per meter = 3840 ÷ width; DORI distances are the manufacturer's figures.
