Uniview UAC-D128-ADF28MS 8MP Analog Dome Camera with 120 dB WDR

The Uniview UAC-D128-ADF28MS is an 8MP (4K) LightHunter dome with 120 dB True WDR, a built-in mic, an IK10 metal housing and IR up to 30 m. It suits hotel lobbies, showroom entrances and glass-fronted offices where you need fine detail despite strong backlight.

====

The Uniview UAC-D128-ADF28MS is an 8MP dome, 3840×2160, that combines three things in one housing: 120 dB True WDR, an IK10 metal housing and a built-in microphone. Its 2.8mm lens covers 109.1° horizontally, with IR reaching 30 m. It is designed for entrances and halls flooded with outside light, such as a hotel lobby, a car showroom or a glass-fronted office.

The backlight problem, solved

Mount an ordinary camera facing a glass door on a bright Riyadh or Jeddah afternoon and anyone walking in becomes a dark silhouette against a white background. True WDR at 120 dB handles the bright and dark parts of the scene at once, so you see the visitor's face and the street behind them in the same frame. That is a real step up from digital WDR, which only adjusts the image in software.

Uniview UAC-D128-ADF28MS specifications

Key specifications:

• 8MP, 1/2.7-inch CMOS sensor.
• Minimum illumination of 0.005 lux at F1.6 with LightHunter.
• 2D and 3D noise reduction.
• One IR LED, 30 m range, with Smart IR.
• IP67 and IK10, operating from -30°C to 60°C.
• 395 g, 3.7 W maximum on 12 V DC.

4K over coax

Output runs at 4K and 15 fps, 5MP at 20 fps or 4MP at 25/30 fps, with TVI, AHD, CVI or CVBS selected by DIP switch. It works on SYV-75-3 and other coax types, so you can raise the resolution in an existing building without pulling network cable.

Audio and detail on playback

The value of 8MP shows when you review footage: zoom into part of the frame, such as a hand on the counter or a face at the door, and it stays more legible than a 5MP camera at the same angle. The built-in mic carries sound on the same cable, completing the picture at a front desk. The OSD menu offers 11 languages, and the camera carries CE, FCC and RoHS certifications.

Good fits in Saudi Arabia

• Hotel lobbies in Makkah, Madinah and Riyadh, with the glass entrance and front desk in one view.
• Car and furniture showrooms with large glass fronts and strong sun.
• Bank branches and service counters that need sharper faces.
• Entrances to malls and office towers.

Mounting and recorder compatibility

The camera surface-mounts directly, or with an optional back box and wall bracket. To record the full 8MP, use a recorder that supports it, such as Uniview's XVR301-04U3 or XVR301-08U3, which take 8MP at 15 fps and support audio over coax from Uniview cameras.

UAC-D128-ADF28MS or UAC-D125-AF28M?

Both share the IK10 metal housing, Φ109 mm size, 2.8mm lens, 30 m IR and built-in mic. The UAC-D128-ADF28MS moves up to 8MP instead of 5MP, true 120 dB WDR instead of digital WDR, and adds 3D noise reduction. The UAC-D125-AF28M draws 3.3 W against 3.7 W and is enough for evenly lit corridors and offices. If the camera goes on an outside wall to cover a distant gate, the bullet UAC-B128-ADF40MS gives the same 8MP with a 4mm lens and 40 m IR.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between 120 dB True WDR and DWDR?

True WDR on the UAC-D128-ADF28MS handles bright and dark areas at sensor level, while DWDR on models like the UAC-D125-AF28M is a digital adjustment. True WDR is clearer at glass entrances.

Do I need a special recorder for 8MP?

Yes, it must accept 8MP input, such as Uniview's XVR301-04U3 or XVR301-08U3 at 15 fps.

Is the camera vandal resistant?

Yes. The metal housing is rated IK10 under IEC 62262, with IP67 sealing against water and dust.
