IP & Security Camera OEM Manufacturers in China
3 resources tagged with "Cameras"
China makes the bulk of the world's IP and security cameras, from 4MP/8MP PoE bullet cams to off-grid solar 4G units. Most factories cluster around Shenzhen and Huizhou and quote ONVIF-compliant H.265+ models with IP66/IP67 housings at OEM MOQs around 500 units. When you source here you are mainly choosing a sensor (commonly Sony Starvis or SmartSens), an SoC (HiSilicon or SigmaStar), and a firmware stack — and verifying the camera actually meets the night-vision and weatherproof claims.
Sourcing cameras means matching a real sensor and SoC pairing to your resolution and low-light spec, then confirming the housing's IP rating with a water-ingress test. A common pitfall is a datasheet listing '8MP' on a sensor that only outputs interpolated 4K — we check the raw sensor part number against the BOM.

FAQ
What is the typical MOQ for OEM security cameras from China?
Most camera factories start OEM runs at 500 units per model. Below that you can usually buy stock ODM models with a custom logo, but firmware customization and unique tooling generally need 1,000+ units.
Which certifications do IP cameras need for export?
FCC for the US and CE for the EU are baseline; cameras with batteries (solar/4G models) also need UN 38.3 for shipping, and Gulf markets require SASO. Confirm the certificate covers the exact model and radio module, not a sister product.
How do I verify a camera's IP66/IP67 weatherproof rating?
Ask for the IEC 60529 test report and, during inspection, run a spray/immersion test on samples. Many outdoor failures trace to the cable gland and rear cover seal rather than the lens housing.
