    Verdict

    Hikvision HM-TD2628-10/G1/T3A captures more pixel detail (5.2 MP vs 5 MP), useful for license-plate or face identification at distance. Hikvision HM-TD2628-10/G1/T3A reaches further (270 m vs 30 m) — better for perimeter and parking-lot wide shots. Hikvision HM-TD2628-10/G1/T3A has stronger IR illumination (80 m vs 40 m) — better for unlit corridors and night perimeter. Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3549T1-AS-PV-0280B-S4 ships a low-light / ColorVu sensor — better in mixed-light retail or city-street scenes.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is Hikvision HM-TD2628-10/G1/T3A better than Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3549T1-AS-PV-0280B-S4?

    Hikvision HM-TD2628-10/G1/T3A captures more pixel detail (5.2 MP vs 5 MP), useful for license-plate or face identification at distance. Hikvision HM-TD2628-10/G1/T3A reaches further (270 m vs 30 m) — better for perimeter and parking-lot wide shots. Hikvision HM-TD2628-10/G1/T3A has stronger IR illumination (80 m vs 40 m) — better for unlit corridors and night perimeter. Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3549T1-AS-PV-0280B-S4 ships a low-light / ColorVu sensor — better in mixed-light retail or city-street scenes. 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 Hikvision HM-TD2628-10/G1/T3A vs Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3549T1-AS-PV-0280B-S4?

    Hikvision HM-TD2628-10/G1/T3A has a 18° horizontal FOV at 9.7mm. Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3549T1-AS-PV-0280B-S4 has a 95° horizontal FOV at 2.8mm. Dahua covers a wider scene at the same distance; the FOV calculator on TodAidesign converts these into linear meters of coverage at any chosen target distance.

    Which camera has stronger IR illumination?

    Hikvision HM-TD2628-10/G1/T3A reaches 80 m of IR illumination versus 40 m for Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3549T1-AS-PV-0280B-S4. 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 Hikvision and Dahua cameras?

    Yes. TodAidesign is multi-vendor by design — drop Hikvision 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.
