ALHUA

Alhua is often a misspelling or alternate labeling of Dahua products, but in some marketplaces it appears as a separate house brand representing re?badged Dahua hardware. These devices generally maintain Dahua’s build quality and compatibility but may feature localized firmware or different branding for distribution purposes. Alhua products are typically sold in bulk through wholesale channels and aimed at budget?oriented buyers. Installers often choose Alhua when they want Dahua?grade hardware at a lower price point. The name is commonly encountered on online marketplaces catering to resellers and OEM buyers. How to connect to Alhua IP cameras?

Alhua IP camera

Initial setup of IP cameras starts by isolating the device from the main network and connecting it to a separate segment or directly to a laptop to avoid IP conflicts and prevent accidental external access. Identify the factory IP address and default credentials and change them right away. In large systems the same password can be used within an isolated subnet for easier management, but different passwords should be set for remote access.

RTSP Address of Alhua IP camera

RTSP is a standard protocol for streaming video and audio over a network. It lets the camera connect to a recorder or software without vendor apps. The URL usually looks like rtsp://login:password@IP:554/path_to_stream. You can find it in the documentation, the web interface, or with SmartVision or ONVIF Device Manager.

ONVIF vs RTSP: What’s the Difference?

People often confuse ONVIF with video streaming — but ONVIF doesn’t transmit video at all.

Alhua compatible software

Assign a static IP address from a dedicated range, place cameras in a separate VLAN, and block direct Internet access if cloud features are not used. Use SmartVison to find Alhua IP camera on network. Disable UPnP, DDNS, auto-updates, and any unused protocols for security reason. If the camera does not support RTSP, check if you can enable it in settings. Try HTTP streaming if supported. If not, replace the camera with a model that supports RTSP or ONVIF.
