Hikvision iDS-2CD8A46G0-IZ/UH 4 MP bullet camera with operation down to -60 °C.

Designed for operation at temperatures down to -60 °C

The biggest difference between the iDS-2CD8A46G0-IZ/UH and traditional bullet cameras is its ability to operate in extreme cold.

The built-in heater ensures that the camera can both start up and operate at temperatures all the way down to -60 °C. At the same time, the integrated demist function helps reduce condensation on the front glass, so the image stays clear in changing weather conditions.

That makes the camera an ideal choice for installations where ordinary surveillance cameras often fall short, for example:

• Freezer houses
• Cold storage and freezer warehouses
• Food production
• Logistics centers
• Energy and utility facilities
• Ports and industrial areas
• Outdoor installations in areas with very low temperatures

4 MP image quality with DarkFighter

The camera records in up to 4 MP resolution (2688 × 1520) and uses a large 1/1.8" Progressive Scan CMOS image sensor, delivering sharp images with a high level of detail.

DarkFighter technology gives the camera very high light sensitivity, so it continues to deliver usable images even when light levels are very low.

That makes the model especially well suited for monitoring outdoor areas, warehouses, industrial halls, and technical installations where lighting is often limited.

LightFighter delivers clear images in strong backlight

The camera uses Hikvision's LightFighter technology together with 140 dB Wide Dynamic Range.

This means the camera can handle very large differences in light within the same image, for example at gates, loading bays, driveways, or other areas where bright sunlight and dark shadows are both part of the scene.

The result is more detailed images with better visibility of people and vehicles.

Motorized 2.8-12 mm lens

The motorized varifocal lens makes it possible to adjust the field of view directly from software or NVR.

During installation, the technician can adjust zoom and focus without opening the camera, which saves time and makes later adjustments much easier.

The lens can be used for both wide overview shots and more detailed surveillance over longer distances.

Smart IR up to 50 meters

The camera is equipped with intelligent infrared illumination with a range of up to 50 meters.

Smart IR automatically adjusts the light intensity based on the subject's distance, so people close to the camera are not overexposed, while objects farther away still appear clearly.

AI Open Platform

One of the camera's biggest strengths is the built-in AI Open Platform.

Unlike traditional surveillance cameras, this platform makes it possible to use your own AI models directly in the camera. Detection models, classification models, or combined models can be used depending on the specific solution.

This makes the camera well suited for specialized projects where standard analytics are not enough, and where the camera needs to act as an intelligent sensor in a larger solution.

Intelligent video analytics

The iDS-2CD8A46G0-IZ/UH supports a range of intelligent analytics functions, making the camera suitable for professional surveillance.

It can, among other things, detect line crossing, intrusion, area entry and area exit, as well as scene changes and focus issues. Events can automatically trigger recording, send email, save images, or activate the surveillance system.

Target Cropping

The camera supports Target Cropping, which can automatically crop and highlight the detected object.

This makes it easier to focus on relevant events and provides a better overview in the surveillance system.

Multiple video streams

The camera supports up to five simultaneous video streams.

This makes it possible to send different resolutions and image qualities for recording, live viewing, mobile devices, and analytics at the same time without affecting the main recording.

Efficient H.265+ video compression

Support for H.265+ reduces bandwidth and storage usage without compromising image quality.

This provides longer recording times on hard drives and less network load compared to traditional video codecs.

Local storage

The camera has a built-in microSD slot with support for memory cards up to 256 GB.

In addition, recording to NAS and ANR (Automatic Network Replenishment) is supported, which automatically synchronizes recordings after a temporary network outage.

Professional integration

The iDS-2CD8A46G0-IZ/UH supports ONVIF Profile S, G, and T as well as Hikvision's ISAPI and SDK.

This means the camera can be integrated into both Hikvision solutions and many third-party systems where open standards are required.

IP67 and IK10

The camera is built in a rugged metal housing and is certified to IP67, protecting it against dust, rain, and harsh weather conditions.

In addition, the housing is IK10 vandal resistant (excluding the glass front), making the camera suitable for demanding outdoor installations.

The model has no special corrosion protection and is therefore not recommended for environments with heavy salty air or chemical exposure, such as port areas, coastal installations, or chemical plants.

Accessories

Under the accessories tab, you will find compatible wall mounts, corner mounts, and pole mounts, making it easy to adapt the installation to different mounting conditions.
