difference between these two cams

[Hans007]

Hi, i connected Andy regarding price on cams. and asked him about which one to buy, and he wrote IPC-HDW5431E-Z so i looked up dahua's page to find some specs on the cam but found that there are also this cam IPC-HDW5431R-Z, so my question is, that's the difference between these to cams
IPC-HDW5431E-Z and IPC-HDW5431R-Z (also this IPC-HDW5431E-Z5)
ps found this while searching the forum..:Trying to understand 44xx camera model-number format but what does the "case sequence" mean? and also the number 5 after Z (motorized lens)

@Hans007. dahua part numbers have all kinds of variations. I think best to read the detailed specifications for the options you want. dahua numbers are complex and without the "code" almost impossible to decifier.

Biggest difference i can see is that IPC-HDBW5431E-Z has alarm functionality and audio in/out while the IPC-HDW5431R-Z does not but has a built in MIC. If you want to connect a PIR and mayby a strobe/blinking light you need Alarm functionality in the cam.

IPC-HDBW5431E-Z
Alarm
1 channel In: 5mA 5VDC
1 channel Out: 300mA 12VDC

Audio Interface
1/1 channel In/Out

IPC-HDW5431R-Z
Audio Interface
Built-in Mic

Thx a lot

Np, btw Z5 is a longer focal lenght lens. It depens on if you want an overview or zoomed in for faceshots for example.
Z=2.7mm ~12mm
Z5=7mm ~35mm

One is a turret form, the other is a dome.

You can print out the spec sheets, and compare them.
In most outdoor locations the turret form works out best.
