Hik-ConnectPTZ surveillance camera for large areas
DS-2DF8442IXG1-ELWY is an advanced PTZ camera that can pan, tilt and zoom to monitor very large areas from a single installation point. The camera can be controlled manually by an operator or automatically follow incidents using intelligent features.
The powerful zoom allows the camera to be placed far from the monitored area while still identifying details.
4 MP image sensor
The camera features a 4 MP sensor that delivers sharp, detailed images. The resolution makes it possible to digitally zoom into recordings without losing too much detail, which is important when monitoring larger areas.
The image sensor works together with the camera's optics and image processing to ensure stable images both day and night.
42× optical zoom
The powerful optical zoom lets you get very close to objects at long distances. That means the camera can cover large areas while still identifying details like people or vehicles.
Optical zoom preserves image quality because the magnification happens in the optics rather than digitally.
DarkFighter technology for low light
DarkFighter technology is designed to deliver clear images in very low light. The camera can continue to provide usable color images in situations where ordinary cameras have already switched to night mode.
It’s especially useful in areas with limited lighting where you still want to see details.
Infrared night illumination up to 400 meters
The camera has powerful infrared lighting, allowing monitoring in complete darkness. The long range makes it suitable for large areas like ports, industrial sites and long access roads.
Intelligent light control automatically adjusts the strength so nearby objects are not overexposed.
Wide Dynamic Range
The camera supports advanced dynamic range processing to handle strong differences in scene brightness. This means both bright and dark areas can be shown clearly in the same image.
The feature is particularly useful at entrances, gates and locations with strong backlight.
PTZ movement and automatic patrols
The camera can rotate 360 degrees and move vertically to cover a wide surveillance area. It can store many positions and automatically move between them in preset patrols
This allows monitoring of multiple areas with one camera without constant manual control.
Intelligent perimeter protection
The camera supports intelligent analytics that can detect when people or vehicles enter defined areas. The system can, for example, detect line crossing or intrusion into a fenced zone.
By filtering events based on object type, false alarms from animals or moving objects can be reduced.
Face detection
The camera can detect and store images of faces when people move through the monitored area. The system automatically selects the best image during movement.
These images can be used later for searching or analysis in the surveillance system.
Vehicle analysis and license plate recognition
The camera can analyze vehicles in the monitored area and record details such as vehicle type, color and direction of travel. At checkpoints, the camera can also capture license plates.
This can be used for access control, traffic monitoring or recording vehicles across large areas.
Automatic tracking
The camera can automatically follow people or vehicles as they move through the monitored area. The camera zooms in and tracks the object so the operator gets a clear view of the incident.
This provides better situational awareness when objects move across a large area.
Network and integration
The camera can be integrated with Hikvision surveillance systems and also supports standard protocols for integration with other systems. It can be accessed via software, mobile app and web browser.
This makes it suitable for both small and very large surveillance solutions.
