It is powered by PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) or DC 12V, rated IP66 with a -40 °C to 65 °C operating range.
Is this the right camera for you?
Plain-language guide for buyers and installers — based only on what this camera actually does.
Perimeter & industrial yardsSmart intrusion prevention (cross line, intrusion, enter/leave area) with false-alarm filtering and human/non-motor/vehicle classification watches an open boundary without constant manual PTZ control.
Roadways & vehicle gatesAuto-tracking classifies human, non-motor vehicle and vehicle targets; the 16x optical zoom (5-80 mm) closes in on distant plates up to the 124.1 m identify-level DORI distance.
Public squares & crowd flowPeople counting supports flow statistics and crowd-density monitoring, suitable for different statistical scenarios per the datasheet — useful for gates, plazas and event entrances.
Low-light & nighttime sitesLightHunter imaging reaches 0.003 Lux color (0 Lux with IR on); when it gets fully dark, 100 m Smart IR takes over, backed by heatwave reduction and digital defog for hazy nights.
Wide-area patrol with presets1024 presets with 16 preset patrols (up to 64 presets each) and 16 route/recorded patrols let one PTZ cover many fixed points on a schedule instead of staffing multiple fixed cameras.
Outdoor pole & wall mountsIP66 sealing, -40 °C to 65 °C operation, 6 kV surge protection, a reset button and heater support keep the camera working through cold winters and hot summers on an outdoor pole.
Not the right pick if you need…
- No audio at all — Audio I/O, built-in mic, built-in speaker and video output are all N/A on this model. If you need two-way audio or alarm I/O, pick a different model.
- No serial port and no WiFi — network connection is 1x RJ45 10M/100M only, and multi-target simultaneous detection is not supported.
- IP66 rated, not IP67 — and no IK-rating is stated in the datasheet. For submersion-rated or heavily vandalism-prone sites, look at a ruggedized housing model instead.

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 | 51.7° wide | 4.9° tele |
|---|---|---|

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 IPC6412LR-X16-VG from its own datasheet: 2 MP, 16x optical zoom (5–80 mm), 100 m Smart IR, auto-tracking of people and vehicles, PoE+ (max. 20 W).
Who it is for
- Factories, yards and perimeters — Cross line, intrusion and enter/leave area detection with human / non-motor vehicle / vehicle classification raise an alarm, and auto-tracking then follows the target with the 16x zoom.
- Car parks, roads and vehicle gates — One camera on a pole covers a whole parking area at 5 mm (51.7°) and zooms to 80 mm to see a single lane or a person far away; 1024 presets let you jump straight to each entrance.
- Squares, markets and event entrances — People counting gives people-flow statistics and crowd-density monitoring, while an operator can still zoom in on any incident.
- Farms, estates and remote sites in hot or cold climates — Rated IP66 with a -40 °C to 65 °C working range, a heater and 6 kV surge protection; LightHunter gives color down to 0.003 Lux, and 100 m Smart IR takes over in full darkness.
Where and how to install
- Go high, with a clear view — A PTZ works best higher than a fixed camera, typically 4–6 m on a pole or building corner, so it looks over vehicles, fences and people. The tilt range is -15° to 90°, so it can look straight down and slightly above the horizon.
- Keep the dome away from walls and eaves — At night the 850 nm IR reflects off any wall, eave, sign or branch close to the dome and washes out the picture. Use a bracket that holds the dome clear of the wall and check every preset at night, not only in daylight.
- Mounting and weight — The camera is Ø162 × 293 mm and weighs 1.79 kg. Use a PTZ wall, corner or pole bracket rated for it and fix it to solid masonry or a pole that does not sway: at 80 mm (4.89°) any vibration is magnified. Our page does not list a bracket model, so ask us for the matching one.
- Power and cable — It needs PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) or a 12 V DC 3 A adapter: maximum draw is 20 W, more than a plain 802.3af port (15.4 W) can supply. Keep the copper run within 100 m and put the RJ45 and power tail in a junction box or waterproof cap.
- Lightning, weather and temperature — Built-in surge protection is 6 kV; a camera on a metal pole or at the top of a building still needs an external surge protector on the network cable and proper earthing. The body is IP66 (rain and water jets, not immersion) and works from -40 °C to 65 °C.
- Set a home position and presets — Set a wide home position that covers the main area, then presets for each gate or door. With auto-tracking on, the camera leaves its view to follow a target, so a critical entrance should also have a fixed camera.
Wide or zoomed in: what you actually see
At 5 mm the IPC6412LR-X16-VG is an overview camera: about 9.7 m wide at 10 m. Zoomed to 80 mm the view narrows to about 4.3 m at 50 m, enough to watch one gate or lane in detail. DORI distances past 100 m apply in daylight or lit areas; in full darkness the IR reaches 100 m.
| Wide · 5 mm | Tele · 80 mm | |
|---|---|---|
| Horizontal view angle | 51.7° | 4.89° |
| Width covered at 10 m | 9.7 m | 0.9 m |
| Width covered at 50 m | 48.4 m | 4.3 m |
| Width covered at 100 m | 96.9 m | 8.5 m |
| Identify a stranger's face up to | 7.8 m | 124.1 m |
| Recognize someone you know up to | 15.5 m | 248.3 m |
| See what a person is doing up to | 31.0 m | 496.6 m |
| Detect that something is there up to | 77.6 m | 1241.4 m |
| IR night distance | 100 m | 100 m |
- Use the wide end (5 mm) as the home position for a yard or car park: at 50 m it still covers 48.4 m of width.
- Save zoomed presets for gates and doors: at full zoom a face is identifiable up to 124.1 m in good light.
- For night use, keep important presets within the 100 m IR range, or add lighting to the area.
Widths are calculated from the horizontal view angle (width = 2 × distance × tan(angle ÷ 2)); identify/recognize/detect distances are the manufacturer's DORI figures (EN 62676-4) from the datasheet.

16x Zoom PTZ Camera FAQ — IPC6412LR-X16-VG
How far can the IPC6412LR-X16-VG see with its 16x zoom?
The 5–80 mm 16x lens (F1.7–F2.8) delivers DORI figures of detect up to 1241.4 m, observe up to 496.6 m, recognize up to 248.3 m and identify up to 124.1 m at the tele end — enough to read a person at over 100 m on a fence line or open yard.
What is its night performance?
LightHunter imaging holds color down to 0.003 lux (F1.7, AGC on), so color detail lasts late into dusk. Once fully dark, Smart IR takes over automatically with a range up to 100 m, and Smart IR exposure control keeps nearby subjects from being overexposed.
What targets can it track automatically?
Auto tracking filters for humans, non-motor vehicles and vehicles, so it can follow a person, motorbike or car through the scene. Smart intrusion prevention adds cross-line, intrusion, enter-area and leave-area detection with false-alarm filtering, plus people flow counting and crowd density monitoring.
How is it powered?
The listing specifies PoE+, so one network cable from a PoE+ switch or NVR PoE port supplies both power and video. That avoids running separate mains power up the pole and keeps the installation to a single Cat5e/Cat6 run per camera.
Where does it store footage?
Besides streaming to your NVR, it records to a MicroSD card up to 512 GB at the edge, with ANR backfilling the recorder after network cuts so nothing is lost. NAS (NFS) network storage is supported too. Video is triple-stream, 1080p at up to 30 fps.
Will the IPC6412LR-X16-VG work with a Hikvision, Dahua or other non-Uniview NVR?
Usually yes for live view, recording and basic PTZ control: it supports ONVIF Profile S, G and T plus RTSP. Auto-tracking runs inside the camera, but setting up smart intrusion rules, people counting and tracking parameters is done in the camera's web interface or on Uniview NVRs/clients (EZStation, UNV-Link, UNV-Link Pro); event alarms may be limited on other brands. Tell us your NVR model and we will confirm before you order.
How many IPC6412LR-X16-VG cameras can one PoE switch run?
Divide the switch's total PoE budget by 20 W, the camera's maximum draw, and use only 802.3at (PoE+) ports, which supply up to 30 W each. For example, a switch with a 120 W budget runs 6 of these cameras at full load (heater and IR on). The camera port is 10/100 Mbps and the stream is at most 16 Mbps, so a Fast Ethernet PoE+ switch is enough; keep each copper run within 100 m.
Why does the night image of my PTZ look foggy or white, and how do I avoid it?
Almost always it is IR light bouncing back: from a wall, eave or branch near the dome, from dust or spider webs on the bubble, or from rain drops on it. On the IPC6412LR-X16-VG mount the dome clear of walls, trim branches, clean the dome with a soft cloth, and check each preset at night. Smart IR and digital defog help, but they cannot fix a reflection caused by placement.
Can the IPC6412LR-X16-VG read license plates?
It can show a plate when a preset is zoomed onto one lane and the vehicle is slow, mainly in daylight; at 80 mm the view is only about 4.3 m wide at 50 m, so aim it where cars stop or slow down. It has no plate-recognition (LPR) function listed, and at night reflective plates often flare under IR. For reliable plate capture at a gate, add a dedicated plate camera and use this PTZ for the overview and tracking.
Can one IPC6412LR-X16-VG watch several areas, and what happens while it is tracking?
Yes, by patrol: it stores 1024 presets and 16 preset patrols of up to 64 presets each, with a stay time of 15 s to 1800 s per point. But it only looks at one place at a time, and multi-target detection is not supported, so while it follows one person or vehicle the rest of the area is not watched. Use it to add detail on top of fixed cameras, not to replace them at critical points.
