Dahua DH-IPC-HCBW8442P-0250B — 4MP Anti-Ligature Corner-Mount Camera

A specialist camera for environments where a person could be at risk of harming themselves. The wedge-shaped body fits flush into a corner with no gaps, edges or projections that a cord or fabric could be tied to, and the housing withstands a 50 joule impact — well beyond standard IK10. Inside is a serious camera: a large 1/1.8-inch sensor, 140 dB of wide dynamic range and a 2.5 mm lens with distortion correction that covers an entire room from the corner.

Core Technology

  • Anti-Ligature Wedge Design — A sealed corner-mount form with no attachment points, designed for environments where occupant safety governs every fitting.
  • 50 Joule Impact Resistance — Rated well beyond standard IK10 vandal protection, for settings where deliberate damage is a realistic expectation.
  • 1/1.8-inch Sensor with 140 dB WDR — A large sensor and exceptional dynamic range, so a bright window does not black out the rest of the room.
  • 2.5 mm Lens with Distortion Correction — Covers an entire room from a single corner, with geometry corrected in-camera so the image stays natural.
  • Abnormality Detection — Alongside tripwire, intrusion and SMD Plus, it flags unusual events — valuable where welfare monitoring is the purpose.
  • ePoE with Metal Construction — Long-distance PoE in a fully metal anti-ligature housing, rated IP67 and -30 to +60 degrees.

Where It Fits

Purpose-built for custodial and clinical environments: mental health units, secure care facilities, police and court holding areas, detention centres and any room where standard camera fittings would be a ligature risk.
