DAHUA IPC-C11EP 1MP network camera

The DAHUA IPC-C11EP is a compact indoor IP camera with a 1MP progressive CMOS sensor that records 1280 × 720 video at up to 20 fps. It uses a 2.8 mm fixed lens to provide a 131° horizontal field of view and includes IR illumination for night vision up to 10 m. The camera supports Wi‑Fi connectivity, H.264/H.265 compression, microSD storage up to 256 GB, built‑in microphone and speaker for two‑way audio, and works with Alexa for voice integration.

Advantages

Compact dimensions and light weight make the camera easy to place in different indoor locations. A super wide 131° viewing angle covers large rooms with a single device. Built‑in human detection and abnormal sound alarm provide immediate notifications for human presence or unusual noises such as a baby crying. Two‑way audio and diversified storage options (microSD, NVR, cloud) increase flexibility for monitoring and recording.

Install the camera on a flat surface or the supplied mounting plate using the included screws and position map. Connect the power adapter (DC 5 V/1 A) and follow the Quick Start Guide to add the camera to the Imou mobile app (iOS/Android) over Wi‑Fi. Configure detection zones, notification settings and storage preferences (microSD, NVR, or cloud). Use the app for live view, two‑way talk, playback from local or cloud storage, and Alexa integration if required.

Recommendations

Place the camera at a height and angle that maximizes the 131° field of view and keeps the primary area of interest within the central portion of the image. For reliable Wi‑Fi performance, place the camera within the router’s effective range and avoid significant physical obstructions. Use a high‑endurance microSD card rated for continuous video recording if local storage is selected.
