Best For: Car parks, warehouses, commercial yards, campuses, loading areas and large sites requiring remotely controlled pan, tilt and optical zoom
HiLook PTZ-N4225I-DE 2MP 25× Optical Zoom IR PTZ Camera – 100m IR
Monitor large areas with flexible remote control using the HiLook PTZ-N4225I-DE 2MP PTZ Camera. Designed for commercial and large-property surveillance, this network speed dome combines 360° pan movement, powerful 25× optical zoom and infrared night surveillance up to 100 metres.
Unlike a fixed CCTV camera that monitors one predetermined direction, the PTZ-N4225I-DE can be remotely moved and zoomed to inspect different areas of a site, making it particularly useful for car parks, warehouses, industrial yards and other expansive locations.

Why Choose a HiLook PTZ Camera?
A PTZ camera provides a different type of surveillance coverage from a conventional fixed turret, bullet or dome camera.
The PTZ-N4225I-DE is particularly useful when you need:
- Remote pan and tilt control
- Powerful optical zoom
- Monitoring across a large site
- Long-range night surveillance
- The ability to inspect different areas from one camera position
- Preset viewing positions for important parts of a property
25× Optical Zoom for Long-Range Viewing
The motorised 4.8mm to 120mm lens provides up to 25× optical zoom, allowing an operator to move from a wider overview to a much narrower view of an area of interest.
Because this is optical rather than purely digital zoom, the lens physically changes focal length to bring distant areas into closer view.
This makes the camera useful for inspecting:
- Vehicle activity across a car park
- Warehouse and industrial yards
- Loading docks
- Property boundaries
- Remote entrances and gates
- Activity across large commercial sites
360° Pan, Tilt and Zoom Control
The PTZ-N4225I-DE provides 360° endless horizontal pan movement, allowing the camera to rotate continuously and monitor different areas around its mounting position.
Combined with motorised tilt and optical zoom, an authorised user can reposition the camera to inspect different parts of a site without physically adjusting the camera.
Monitor Large Areas with One Controllable Camera
A PTZ camera is particularly useful for locations where operators may need to change the surveillance view throughout the day.
For example, the camera can provide a general overview of a car park and then be moved and zoomed towards a gate, loading dock or area of activity when closer inspection is required.
Important: A PTZ camera only records the direction in which it is currently pointing. For continuous coverage of critical areas, fixed cameras are often used alongside PTZ cameras.
100m Infrared Night Surveillance
Integrated infrared illumination provides night surveillance at distances of up to approximately 100 metres, making this model particularly suitable for larger outdoor environments.
Long-range IR can assist with monitoring:
- Car parks
- Industrial yards
- Warehouse perimeters
- Commercial properties
- Schools and campuses
- Large residential estates
120dB True WDR for Challenging Lighting
The camera's 120dB true Wide Dynamic Range helps retain useful image detail in scenes containing both bright and dark areas.
This can be particularly useful when monitoring gates, entrances, loading areas or open outdoor environments affected by strong sunlight and shadows.
2MP Full HD Surveillance
The PTZ-N4225I-DE provides up to 1920 × 1080 Full HD resolution.
Although newer fixed cameras may offer higher megapixel resolutions, this PTZ model's primary advantage is its combination of motorised movement, 25× optical zoom and long-range IR rather than maximum pixel count.
It is therefore best selected for applications requiring flexible long-range monitoring rather than simply choosing a camera based on resolution.
Local microSD Recording up to 256GB
The camera supports compatible microSD, SDHC and SDXC cards up to 256GB, providing an additional local recording option.
For larger commercial CCTV systems and longer footage retention, connection to a compatible network video recorder with surveillance-grade hard drive storage is recommended.
H.265+ Video Compression
H.265+ compression helps reduce network bandwidth and storage requirements while maintaining useful recorded video quality.
This is particularly beneficial for CCTV systems recording continuously or storing footage over extended periods.
PoE Network Connectivity
The PTZ-N4225I-DE supports IEEE 802.3at PoE, allowing compatible equipment to provide network data and power through the Ethernet connection.
Because PTZ cameras have higher power requirements than many fixed cameras, always confirm that the PoE equipment being used can provide the required power standard before installation.
IP66 Outdoor Protection
The IP66-rated housing provides protection against dust and water, making the PTZ-N4225I-DE suitable for appropriately installed outdoor surveillance applications.
Professional mounting and appropriate weatherproof cabling are recommended, particularly in exposed commercial environments.
HiLook NVR Compatibility
The PTZ-N4225I-DE is an IP network PTZ camera designed for use with compatible network CCTV systems.
If you are adding this PTZ to an existing system, check that your NVR supports:
- HiLook IP camera compatibility
- PTZ control
- 2MP network camera recording
- Required PoE power or external power arrangements
- Remote viewing and PTZ control functions
Not sure whether your existing recorder is compatible? Contact CTC Communications and our security team can help confirm compatibility before you order.
Remote Viewing and PTZ Control
When connected to a compatible HiLook CCTV system and network connection, the HiLookVision app provides convenient remote access to supported CCTV functions.
- View live camera footage remotely
- Review recorded footage from compatible storage
- Control supported pan, tilt and zoom functions
- Move between important areas of the property
- Access the CCTV system while away from site
Ideal Applications
- Shopping centre and commercial car parks
- Warehouses and industrial facilities
- Logistics depots and loading bays
- Schools and campuses
- Large commercial properties
- Building and property perimeters
- Large residential estates
- Sites requiring remotely controlled long-range surveillance
PTZ Camera or Fixed Camera?
PTZ and fixed cameras perform different roles within a CCTV system.
-
PTZ Camera – Ideal for actively monitoring large areas and zooming into different locations as required
-
Fixed Camera – Continuously records one predetermined area and is ideal for entrances, doors, driveways and other critical locations
For larger commercial sites, combining fixed cameras with a PTZ can provide both continuous coverage and flexible long-range inspection.
