Best For: Home entrances, driveways, shopfronts and commercial access areas needing 4K video, flexible night lighting, two-way audio and event-triggered warnings.
Hikvision DS-2CD2087G2H-LIU/SL 8MP 4K ColorVu Mini Bullet Camera
The Hikvision DS-2CD2087G2H-LIU/SL combines 8MP 4K imaging with ColorVu and Smart Hybrid Light in a compact outdoor camera. Infrared and white supplementary light provide flexible night monitoring, while human and vehicle classification helps focus supported events on relevant activity.
A built-in microphone and speaker support two-way communication, with a warning strobe and audio alarm for active deterrence. The existing listing identifies a fixed 2.8mm lens, providing broad coverage across entrances and outdoor access areas.

Smart Hybrid Light and ColorVu at Night
Smart Hybrid Light offers infrared, white-light and smart lighting operation. IR supports black-and-white footage in dark scenes. White supplementary light supports colour imaging where ambient light is insufficient. In configured smart mode, supported target events can bring on white light to capture colour detail when activity is detected.
ColorVu helps retain useful colour information such as clothing and vehicle colours, but colour imaging still requires adequate ambient or supplementary light. Lighting behaviour depends on the selected mode and event configuration. The 40m rating describes illumination reach rather than a guaranteed identification distance.
Human and Vehicle Classification
Deep-learning classification helps supported motion and perimeter rules focus on people and vehicles. Configure line crossing, intrusion, region entrance and region exiting around relevant access paths and boundaries.
Careful detection zones, schedules and sensitivity can reduce irrelevant notifications. Classification does not eliminate every unwanted alert, so test the rules at the site. Recorder event handling and search functions depend on compatibility and firmware.
Strobe Light and Audio Alarm
The camera can activate a warning strobe and audible alarm when configured event conditions are met. These are active-deterrence functions and should be set around the areas and times requiring a warning response.
The warning strobe is separate from the white light used to illuminate a scene for colour recording. Plan warning schedules and speaker settings to suit the property and nearby occupants.
Built-In Microphone and Two-Way Audio
One built-in microphone captures audio alongside video when recording is enabled. The integrated speaker supports communication through compatible software and provides audible warnings.
Confirm support for camera audio, two-way communication and warning controls when choosing a recorder. Available remote controls depend on firmware, the connected NVR and app configuration.
4K Detail and Wide-Angle Coverage
The 2.8mm lens provides a broad 104° horizontal view for general monitoring. The 1/1.8-inch sensor and 130 dB WDR help manage low light and scenes with strong contrast, such as shaded entrances facing bright outdoor areas.
Position the camera around the detail you need. Higher resolution does not guarantee identification at every distance; subject movement, lighting, viewing angle and the target's size in the image all matter.
PoE, Storage and Recorder Compatibility
IEEE 802.3af PoE supplies power and network data through one Ethernet cable using a compatible NVR port or switch. Maximum specified PoE consumption is 10W. A suitable 12V DC supply is an alternative.
Pair it with a compatible Hikvision network video recorder supporting 4K resolution, incoming bandwidth and the required audio and event functions. A microSD card up to 512GB can provide local recording. Recording duration depends on bitrate, schedule and storage capacity.
Hik-Connect Remote Access
Hik-Connect can provide live viewing, playback and event notifications through a compatible, correctly configured camera or NVR network setup with internet access. Two-way audio and deterrent controls depend on the supported recorder, firmware and app configuration.
Outdoor Use and Applications
The IP67 metal housing suits outdoor installation with appropriate mounting and protected cable connections. Select camera height, cable routing and mounting accessories for the surface and surrounding conditions.
- Home entrances, driveways and side access areas.
- Retail shopfronts and business access points.
- Office buildings and commercial perimeters.
- Loading areas and outdoor spaces needing configurable warnings.
