2 MP1080P main stream, 1/1.8" CMOS
45×Optical zoom (16× digital)
250 mSmart IR distance
IP66Ingress protection

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.

Long straight roads & fence linesWith DORI Detect reaching 3980.2 m at full 45× telephoto, one pole can watch a long stretch of road, pipeline or border fence that would otherwise need several fixed cameras.
Perimeter & entrance pointsSmart intrusion prevention (cross line, intrusion, enter/leave area) filters false alarms and classifies human, non-motor and motor-vehicle targets, while people counting adds crowd-density monitoring at gates.
Low-light streets & yardsLightHunter processing keeps color video usable down to 0.0005 lux, and once it's fully dark Smart IR takes over out to 250 m — useful where street lighting is patchy or absent.
Scheduled patrol coverage360° endless pan with 1024 presets and 16 recorded/route patrols lets one head sweep multiple points on a schedule instead of staring at a single fixed frame.
Harsh outdoor climatesIP66 sealing, -40 °C to 70 °C operation, a 6 kV surge rating and built-in heater support cover sites that swing between extreme cold and heat.
Sites with mixed power infrastructureAccepts AC 24 V, DC 24 V or PoE++ (IEEE 802.3bt) — useful for poles or rooftops where a dedicated PoE switch isn't already run.
Not the right pick if you need…
  • 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.

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.

  • 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.

2MP 45x PTZ Camera FAQ — IPC6852ER-X45-VF

Can I power the IPC6852ER over the network cable?
Yes — the product data lists PoE++ support, so a PoE++ switch port or injector can run this PTZ over the same cable that carries video. Standard 802.3af/at ports on ordinary cctv poe switches are usually too weak for PTZ domes, so confirm your switch supplies PoE++ class power.
How far can it identify a vehicle plate area or a person?
The 45x lens (5.7–256.5 mm) posts the longest DORI reach in this series: detect 3980.2 m, observe 1592.1 m, recognize 796 m and identify 398 m at full telephoto. LightHunter sensitivity of 0.0005 lux keeps those distances usable after sunset.
What is the night vision distance?
Per the product data, Smart IR reaches 250 m (820 ft), adjusting intensity so nearby subjects are not overexposed. The 1/1.8-inch sensor sees 0.0005 lux in color and 0 lux with IR active, and 120 dB WDR balances bright gate lights against dark yards.
Does it integrate with ONVIF NVRs and patrol on schedule?
Yes. ONVIF Profile S, G, T and M plus API/SDK cover third-party NVR and VMS integration, with EZStation, UNV-Link and UNV-Link Pro clients. Route patrol supports 16 patrols with up to 32 actions each, so the dome can sweep fixed checkpoints all night unattended.
What analytics and storage does it carry onboard?
Smart intrusion prevention runs cross-line, intrusion and enter/leave-area detection with false alarm filtering, plus people flow counting and crowd density monitoring. A MicroSD slot takes up to 512 GB with ANR refill after outages, and NAS (NFS) is supported. Two-way audio handles remote warnings.
IPC6852ER-X45-VF (2 MP, 45x) or IPC6854ER-X40-VF (4 MP, 40x): which should I choose?
Choose the IPC6852ER-X45-VF when maximum reach matters most: its 256.5 mm tele end gives an identify distance of 398 m, versus 333.1 m on the IPC6854ER-X40-VF with its 228 mm lens. Choose the 4 MP model when you want more detail in the wide and mid-zoom views and in recorded footage you may enlarge later. Both share the 250 m IR, 61 W maximum power, IP66 housing and mounting accessories; check the IPC6854ER-X40-VF page for its own figures.
Does the IPC6852ER-X45-VF automatically follow a person or vehicle?
No, auto-tracking is not listed in its datasheet. It detects cross line, intrusion and area enter/leave with human, non-motor vehicle and vehicle classification, counts people, and can run preset, route and recorded patrols, but it will not zoom in and follow a target by itself. Its 7 alarm inputs and 2 outputs can trigger presets from external detectors such as beams or fence sensors. If you need automatic tracking, ask us for a model that lists it.
The image shakes when the IPC6852ER-X45-VF is zoomed in. How do I fix it?
At 256.5 mm the view is 2.2° wide, so any movement of the mount is magnified. First make the mount stiff: a short pole bracket (TR-UP08-A-IN or TR-UP08-B-IN) on a thick pole with a solid foundation, not a long wall arm or gooseneck, and no thin poles that whip in wind. Then switch on EIS in the image settings; the camera has gyroscope-based stabilization. Shimmer that looks like water over hot roads in the afternoon is heat haze, not shaking; the heatwave reduction setting is meant for that.
How clear will the IPC6852ER-X45-VF be at long range in fog, dust or haze?
It has both digital defog and optical defog. Optical defog uses near-infrared light, which passes light haze better, so the picture turns black and white while it is on; digital defog only raises contrast. Neither can see through thick fog or heavy dust: the DORI distances in the table assume clear air, and at several hundred metres visibility is usually the limit, not the lens. There is no wiper, so on dusty sites plan regular cleaning of the dome.
What 24 V power supply and cable do I need for the IPC6852ER-X45-VF on a distant pole?
Use a 24 V AC or DC supply rated above 61 W; at 24 V that is about 2.5 A, so many installers pick a 100 W unit for margin. Low voltage loses volts over long wire, so the usual practice is to bring mains to the pole and mount the supply in a weatherproof box near the camera; the camera accepts 24 V ±25%, which is about 18–30 V at its terminals with the heater and IR on. The power input is wires with cold-pressed terminals, so make the joints in the TR-JB12-IN junction box, and remember the 10/100 Mbps network cable is limited to 100 m per copper run.
The IPC6852ER-X45-VF has no built-in mic or speaker. How do I add audio and sirens?
Use its audio I/O 1/1: connect an external pickup to the input (impedance 1 kΩ, 2.5 V p-p) and an amplified speaker to the output (impedance 600 Ω, 2.5 V p-p); two-way audio is supported with G.711U/G.711A. The output is line level, so a horn speaker needs its own amplifier. For sirens, strobes or barriers use the 2 alarm outputs through a relay sized for the load, and run all these wires into the TR-JB12-IN junction box.
