Extra Info
ColorVu 3.0 Technology
The Hikvision DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY-SL is powered by ColorVu 3.0, delivering bright and vivid full-color imaging around the clock. Unlike traditional cameras that switch to black-and-white in low light, this advanced technology uses a high-performance sensor and F1.0 aperture lens to maximize available light. The result is clear color video even in near-total darkness, enabling accurate identification of details such as clothing, vehicle colors, and objects. This ensures more actionable evidence and enhanced situational awareness in critical events.
Active Deterrence (Strobe + Audio)
Beyond simple monitoring, this camera actively prevents incidents through its built-in strobe light and customizable audio alerts. When motion or intrusion is detected, the strobe light flashes as a strong visual warning, while the audio speaker can broadcast alarms or pre-recorded messages. This two-layer deterrence feature is especially effective in discouraging intruders before they commit a crime, making it ideal for protecting perimeters, driveways, and storefronts.
High-Resolution Imaging
With an 8MP sensor, the DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY-SL captures ultra-clear and detailed video footage. The fixed 2.8mm lens provides a wide-angle field of view, making it suitable for monitoring entrances, parking areas, or open spaces. Combined with Hikvision’s advanced image processing, users can rely on crisp visuals that support accurate recognition and forensic review.
Built-in Audio Recording
The integrated microphone records high-quality audio in sync with video, delivering more context to security footage. This feature provides comprehensive evidence collection for disputes, investigations, or monitoring customer and visitor interactions. Audio adds another critical layer of detail beyond what video alone can provide.
Reliable Outdoor Performance
Designed with an IP67-rated weatherproof housing, the camera withstands dust, rain, and harsh outdoor conditions. Its durable build ensures consistent operation in temperatures ranging from -30 °C to 60 °C, making it a dependable choice for year-round outdoor surveillance. Backed by a 3-year warranty, it provides long-term peace of mind for both residential and commercial users.
Simple Power and Connectivity
Installation is made easier with Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing video and power to be transmitted through a single cable. This reduces installation costs and complexity, while still supporting 12V DC power as an alternative. When connected to Hikvision NVRs, users unlock additional features such as smart search, advanced event management, and seamless integration with mobile apps for remote monitoring.
