Description
 

The HCPRO-SD380 smoke detector security camera is an excellent choice for indoor covert surveillance. This professional spy camera is completely hidden in the smoke detector housing. A very small cone / pinhole lens peeks out of the side of the smoke detector plastic housing and is virtually undetectable and makes this an excellent spy cam. This HD security camera easily mounts to ceiling tiles and other ceiling materials.

Important Update! The HCPRO-SD380 is now a 4-in-1 selectable HD-over-Coax security camera and has a built-in audio surveillance microphone. The following video formats are selectable using the OSD joystick that is attached to the camera's video cable.

  • 1080p AHD
  • 1080p HD-TVI
  • 1080p HDCVI
  • Analog CCTV (CVBS)

This camera captures 1080p HD surveillance video in AHD, HD-TVI, and HDCVI modes. Please check out this HD image captured with the HCPRO-SD380 camera. The 3.7mm lens pinhole lens captures an approximately 86 degree field of view. Watch sample video surveillance footage captured with the HCPRO-SD380 here. You can also see installation and mobile app viewing images here.

This camera works best in fairly well-lit areas. If you need a hidden camera that also captures video in the dark, please check out our hidden motion detector camera with invisible IR. A DC power supply is included with this camera.

This camera is typically connected to a CCTV DVR to record video surveillance. However, if you would like to connect this security camera to a TV instead of recording, please refer to this BNC to HDMI converter add-on. You can select it from the options drop-down above.

Ceiling Mount Installation

This image shows how the HCPRO-SD380 was installed in CCTV Camera Pros testing studio. This is the camera that was used in the above video. Our studio has a raw industrial ceiling, so we use a piece of wood to simulate the ceiling mount. This camera can easily be mounted on drywall or ceiling tile type ceilings.

Notice how small the pinhole lens is on the front side of the camera, making this one of the best covert spy cameras that we supply.

BNC to HDMI Converter

An optional BNC to HDMI converter can be ordered with this camera. The converter allows you to connect your security camera to a TV via the HDMI input of your TV. In addition to the BNC video input on the converter, there is also a BNC loop output so that you can connect the camera to a security camera DVR in addition to a TV / monitor. The BNC loop output is optional to use.

This device can be used solely as a way to connect your security camera to a TV for a live view only or you can also use the BNC output to also connect the camera's video to a second device, such as a DVR for recording video surveillance footage. You can see this in the above installation diagram.

5 of 5 Great products and customer service November 15, 2022
Reviewer: Fernando S from St. Petersburg, Florida  
I will not go anywhere else. They have pretty much everything I would need. When I ran into a minor issue, I emailed Mike and he promptly responded by making a video showing how to adjust the setting and sent me the link to it. Wow, that kind of customer service is nearly extinct in this day and age. Mike and the guys make you feel like they are a part of your security team, not just some web site visitor. Keep up the good work.
