Verdict
Dahua SD6AL445GB-HNV reaches further (250 m vs 200 m) — better for perimeter and parking-lot wide shots. Dahua SD6AL445GB-HNV has stronger IR illumination (400 m vs 250 m) — better for unlit corridors and night perimeter.
Frequently asked questions
Is Dahua SD6AL445GB-HNV better than Dahua SD6CE445GB-HNR?
Dahua SD6AL445GB-HNV reaches further (250 m vs 200 m) — better for perimeter and parking-lot wide shots. Dahua SD6AL445GB-HNV has stronger IR illumination (400 m vs 250 m) — better for unlit corridors and night perimeter. For installation-specific advice — mounting height, tilt, obstacle shadowing, BOM and PoE budget — drop both cameras into TodAidesign and the FOV cones, DORI rings (per EN 62676-4) and cable schedule render in real time on a satellite map or imported floor plan.
What is the field of view of Dahua SD6AL445GB-HNV vs Dahua SD6CE445GB-HNR?
Dahua SD6AL445GB-HNV has a 70° horizontal FOV at 3.95-177.7mm. Dahua SD6CE445GB-HNR has a 70° horizontal FOV at 3.95-177.7mm. Both cover the same angular scene; the FOV calculator on TodAidesign converts these into linear meters of coverage at any chosen target distance.
Which camera has stronger IR illumination?
Dahua SD6AL445GB-HNV reaches 400 m of IR illumination versus 250 m for Dahua SD6CE445GB-HNR. The further-reaching IR camera is the better fit for unlit yards, parking perimeters and warehouses without permanent lighting.
Can I plan a project mixing Dahua and Dahua cameras?
Yes. TodAidesign is multi-vendor by design — drop Dahua and Dahua cameras on the same canvas, share the same EN 62676-4 lens math and DORI ring overlays, and consolidate them into one BOM with cable schedule and PoE budget. Vendor design tools (Axis Site Designer, Hikvision HiTools, Dahua Project Design Tool, i-PRO SDT) cannot do this because each speaks only its own catalog.
