Is it recommended to go for this camera for outside, looking over and monitoring a backyard (180 degree view) in day and night or better going with two old friend 5442 side by side? The backyard is 15 meters deep.

I have one POE connection outside but need to cover two opposite angles. Any good Dahua product for this? Any 5442 variant? With night vision or Light (Colour) are both ok.
Solution is found by adding the camera to Synology Surveillance station as an ONVIF generic camera instead of a Dahua camera. Audio is now properly recorded. Looks like Synology Surveillance station is not directly supporting this camera and a number of other new Dahua cameras yet.
I can go only up to 16000 for AAC and PCM. Looks like it doesn't support higher. Unfortunately no change in the situation with 16000. What do you suggest?
None of the live stream or recordings (general or events) in Synology Surveillance Station or DS Cam has any Audio, but there is audio on Dahua's app, both for Live view and recorded videos (events , etc.).
Tried to change the audio format settings on Dahua cam between AAC, PCM and G711A but no...
