Uniview IPC568EB-DGK-I0 4K LightHunter Box Camera with SFP Port

The Uniview IPC568EB-DGK-I0 is a specialist 8MP (4K) box camera with a 1/1.8" LightHunter low-light sensor and a C/CS lens mount, so you pick the lens for the distance. With 120 dB optical WDR and an SFP fiber port, it suits factories, ports and glass entrances.

====

The Uniview IPC568EB-DGK-I0 is a specialist 8MP (4K) box camera for installers who want full control of the lens. Instead of a factory-fixed lens, it has a C/CS mount, so you fit the optics the job needs: a wide lens for a building lobby or a long lens for a factory gate hundreds of meters away. Its large 1/1.8" LightHunter sensor keeps the image in color in very low light.

IPC568EB-DGK-I0 specifications

Part of Uniview's Pro range (also listed as UNV IPC568EB-DGK-I0), these are its headline figures:

• Main stream 3840×2160 at 30 fps.
• Minimum illumination 0.002 lux in color and 0.0002 lux in black and white at F1.2.
• Optical WDR up to 120 dB.
• Motorized lens support for zoom and focus, plus ABF (auto back focus).
• Optical and digital defog.

Glass entrances and harsh sunlight

A glass door facing the midday sun is the hardest scene for a standard camera: either the outside burns white or the face inside goes black. 120 dB optical WDR balances both in the same frame, so you see the person walking in and the street behind them.

SFP fiber port for large sites

Next to the gigabit RJ45 sits a 100M/1000M SFP port. On a factory, port or campus where the camera is far from the equipment room, you fit a fiber module and connect directly, with no separate media converter. The optical and network ports also allow cameras to be chained to cut cabling costs.

Analytics and professional I/O

Line crossing, intrusion, area entry and exit with false alarm filtering are supported, along with people counting, crowd density, and motion, tampering and audio detection. The rear panel adds audio in/out for two-way audio, 2 alarm inputs and 1 output, RS485 and a BNC video output. A microSD slot takes cards up to 256 GB.

Power and installation

Three power options: 802.3af PoE, 12 V DC or 24 V AC, with an 8 W maximum draw. The body is 152 × 71 × 65 mm without a lens, weighs 0.40 kg and runs from -20°C to 60°C.

Important: there is no IP rating, so outdoor use needs a suitable housing.

Typical Saudi applications

• Tower, bank and hotel entrances: clear faces despite strong backlight.
• Factory and large warehouse gates: a long lens watches the gate from a distance.
• Spread-out sites such as ports and campuses: fiber links via SFP.
• Malls and exhibitions: visitor counting and crowd alerts.

Compatibility

ONVIF Profiles S, G and T, plus API and SDK, let it work with Uniview NVRs and ONVIF-compliant VMS platforms. View it in EZStation, EZView, EZLive or a browser; the BNC output helps when you connect a local monitor while setting up the lens.

IPC568EB-DGK-I0 or IPC8544EA-KM-I1?

Both use a 1/1.8" sensor from the LightHunter family, but the IPC8544EA-KM-I1 is a ready-to-mount outdoor camera rated IP67 that delivers a 180° 16MP view with 50 m IR. Pick it to cover a whole yard with no extra lens or housing. Pick the IPC568EB-DGK-I0 when you need a lens chosen for a specific distance, a fiber link, optical defog or people counting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I install it outdoors?

It has no IP rating, so outdoor use needs a suitable protective housing. It operates from -20°C to 60°C.

What is the SFP port for?

Fit a fiber module to connect the camera over long distances directly, without a media converter. Useful on factories, ports and spread-out sites.
