Need the PDF datasheet? Get it on WhatsApp →The IPC6852ER-X45-VF is a 2MP (1920×1080 @30fps) PTZ dome camera built around a 1/1.8" CMOS sensor and a 5.7–256.5 mm 45× optical zoom lens (16× digital), giving a DORI Detect range from 88.4 m at the wide end up to 3980.2 m at full telephoto. LightHunter low-light processing keeps color video down to 0.0005 lux, and Smart IR extends visibility to 250 m once it's fully dark. On the analytics side it runs smart intrusion prevention (cross line, intrusion, enter/leave area) with false-alarm filtering and human/non-motor/motor vehicle classification, plus people counting with crowd density monitoring. The housing is rated IP66 and works from -40 °C to 70 °C, and it accepts AC 24 V, DC 24 V or PoE++ (IEEE 802.3bt) power.
Is this the right camera for you?
Plain-language guide for buyers and installers — based only on what this camera actually does.
- No built-in microphone, no built-in speaker and no onboard WiFi (all N/A per datasheet) — plan an external audio device and a wired network drop if you need two-way audio or wireless connectivity.
- This is a classic single-lens 45× PTZ, not a panoramic-linkage unit — it has no second wide-angle channel and no auto-tracking hand-off between channels. If you need one head to auto-follow a target across a whole scene, look at a panoramic-linkage PTZ instead.
- 10.3 kg and Ø270×497 mm: this needs one of the dedicated dome mounting brackets (pole, wall, ceiling or corner) listed below — not a light camera arm.

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 | 59.5° wide | 2.2° tele |
|---|---|---|
| 5 m16 ft | 5.7 m18.8 ft | 0.2 m0.6 ft |
| 10 m33 ft | 11.4 m37.5 ft | 0.4 m1.3 ft |
| 15 m49 ft | 17.1 m56.3 ft | 0.6 m1.9 ft |
| 20 m66 ft | 22.9 m75.0 ft | 0.8 m2.5 ft |
| 30 m98 ft | 34.3 m113 ft | 1.2 m3.8 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 IPC6852ER-X45-VF from its own datasheet: 2 MP (1920×1080) on a 1/1.8" sensor, 45x optical zoom (5.7–256.5 mm), 250 m Smart IR, IP66 with a heater for -40 °C to 70 °C, AC 24 V / DC 24 V / PoE++ 802.3bt (max. 61 W).
Who it is for
- Roads, pipelines, borders and long fences — The 256.5 mm tele end is the longest in this LightHunter IR family: a person is identifiable up to 398 m in daylight and detectable up to 3980.2 m, so one pole replaces several fixed cameras along a straight line.
- Unlit rural and industrial sites — 850 nm Smart IR reaches 250 m in full darkness, and LightHunter keeps color down to 0.0005 Lux where there is a little street or yard light.
- Control rooms that patrol on a schedule — 1024 presets, 16 preset patrols of up to 64 presets each (stay time 15–1800 s), 16 route and 16 recorded patrols, and an RS485 port for keyboard control.
- Projects on a tight bandwidth or storage budget — At 1080P the streams are lighter than 4 MP or 8 MP siblings, the port is 10/100 Mbps, and Ultra 265 keeps the bit rate low; the trade-off is less detail per preset at the same zoom.
Where and how to install
- Height and view — Mount high, typically 6–10 m on a pole, mast or roof edge, so the long views pass over vehicles, trees and fences. Tilt runs -15° to 90° with auto reverse, so it can look slightly above the horizon toward a distant road and straight down at the pole base.
- A rigid mount for 10.3 kg at 256.5 mm — At the tele end the view is only 2.2° wide, so a few millimetres of pole sway become visible shaking. Use the pole bracket TR-UP08-A-IN or the aluminium TR-UP08-B-IN on a thick, guyed or concreted pole; the gyroscope EIS helps, but the long arm TR-WE45-A-IN and the gooseneck TR-WE45-B-IN move more in wind at full zoom.
- Other mounts and the junction box — Corner: TR-UC08-A-IN or aluminium TR-UC08-B-IN. Ceiling: TR-CE45-IN or TR-UF45-A-IN (indoor), or pendant poles TR-SE45-IN (200) and TR-SE45-A-IN (500). Terminate the power wires, network, RS485 and alarm/audio wires inside the TR-JB12-IN dome junction box.
- Power: 24 V or 802.3bt PoE++ — Maximum draw is 61 W, with the heater and IR on at night. Normal 802.3af (15.4 W) or 802.3at (30 W) ports cannot run it. On PoE++, note that an 802.3bt Type 3 port gives up to 60 W at the switch, which is below 61 W, so plan a Type 4 (90 W) port or injector; otherwise use a 24 V AC or DC supply sized above 61 W (about 2.5 A at 24 V).
- Lightning and earthing — Built-in surge protection is 6 kV and the housing is IP66. A tall PTZ pole is usually the highest point on site: add surge protectors on the power, network and RS485 lines and bond the pole to a proper earth.
- Keep the IR and the dome clean — The 850 nm IR reflects off nearby walls, eaves, branches, spider webs and dirt on the dome and washes out the night image. Keep the dome away from walls, trim trees in the view, and check every preset at night after installation.
Wide or zoomed in: what you actually see
At 5.7 mm the IPC6852ER-X45-VF gives an overview about 57.2 m wide at 50 m. At 256.5 mm the view is only about 1.9 m wide at 50 m and 3.8 m at 100 m, which still puts roughly 500 pixels on each metre of the scene at 100 m (1920 ÷ 3.8). The IR reaches 250 m, so DORI distances beyond that need daylight or a lit scene.
| Wide · 5.7 mm | Tele · 256.5 mm | |
|---|---|---|
| Horizontal view angle | 59.5° | 2.2° |
| Width covered at 10 m | 11.4 m | 0.4 m |
| Width covered at 50 m | 57.2 m | 1.9 m |
| Width covered at 100 m | 114.3 m | 3.8 m |
| Identify a stranger's face up to | 8.8 m | 398 m |
| Recognize someone you know up to | 17.7 m | 796 m |
| See what a person is doing up to | 35.4 m | 1592.1 m |
| Detect that something is there up to | 88.4 m | 3980.2 m |
| IR night distance | 250 m | 250 m |
- Set the home position near the wide end for situational awareness: at 50 m the 5.7 mm view still covers 57.2 m.
- Save zoomed presets on gates, junctions and fence corners far from the pole: at 256.5 mm a person is identifiable up to 398 m in daylight.
- At night, keep the presets that matter within the 250 m IR range or add lighting there.
Widths are calculated from the horizontal view angle (width = 2 × distance × tan(angle ÷ 2)); identify/recognize/observe/detect distances are the manufacturer's DORI figures from the datasheet.
