ColorVu 3.0 and HikAI-ISP Imaging
ColorVu 3.0 combines an F1.0 lens with low-light imaging technology. HikAI-ISP provides image noise reduction, helping preserve useful scene detail when lighting is limited.
Colour footage requires enough ambient or supplementary white light. Infrared illumination provides black-and-white footage in dark conditions. Plan night-time coverage around the details you need to capture, rather than resolution alone.
Smart Hybrid Light with Up to 60m Illumination
The camera integrates infrared and white light, with three supplementary lighting modes. Choose infrared, white light or smart operation to suit the property and monitoring requirements.
The stated lighting reach is up to 60 metres. This does not guarantee facial identification or number plate readability at that distance; lens choice, camera angle, movement and lighting affect usable detail.
Human and Vehicle Classification
Deep-learning classification helps focus events on people and vehicles. Supported perimeter detection includes line crossing, intrusion, region entrance and region exiting.
Configure detection areas around entrances and approaches, then test them in day and night conditions. Classification can help reduce unwanted events, but does not eliminate every false alert.
Dual Microphones and Two-Way Audio
An arrayed dual-microphone system captures audio, while the built-in speaker supports two-way communication through a compatible system. This can be useful for speaking with visitors or directing deliveries.
Check recorder and software support for the audio functions you intend to use, and configure audio recording appropriately for the location.
White Strobe Light and Audible Warning
The /SL model uses a white flashing warning light and an audible alarm for active deterrence. Configure these responses around selected events and schedules that suit the property.
The flashing warning light is distinct from the infrared and white light used to illuminate the scene. This /SL listing does not describe the red and blue warning-light /SRB model.
Scene-Adaptive WDR
Scene-adaptive WDR, rated at 130dB, helps balance bright and shaded areas. This is useful when an entrance or vehicle approach includes contrasting light levels.
Correct positioning remains important. Avoid aiming towards direct sunlight or strong reflections, and check exposure settings against the scene you need to monitor.
Outdoor Protection and Anti-Corrosion Design
The camera carries IP67 protection and NEMA 4X anti-corrosion protection. Hikvision classifies its corrosion protection as moderate, so the intended environment should still be assessed before installation.
For direct coastal exposure, docks or chemical environments, ask CTC Communications to review the camera and mounting accessories against the site conditions.
Choosing the Right Fixed Lens
The manufacturer lists 2.8mm and 4mm versions. The 2.8mm lens offers a wider view; the 4mm lens concentrates coverage on a narrower area. These are fixed lenses, rather than motorised zoom options.
CTC Communications lists both 2.8mm and 4mm options. The SKU DS-2CD2T87G3-LIS2UY/SL(2.8mm) identifies the wider-view 2.8mm variant; select 4mm for a narrower view.
Ideal Applications
- Business entrances and delivery access points
- Residential driveways and building approaches
- Warehouse loading areas
- Commercial property boundaries
- Selected vehicle and pedestrian access zones
- Locations needing remote communication and configured warning responses
