Technical Specifications
Detailed Features & Benefits
8MP 4K Ultra HD Surveillance
The Hikvision DS-2CD2187G3-LIS2UY captures high-resolution video at up to 3840 × 2160 pixels, providing detailed 4K Ultra HD security footage for professional CCTV installations.
The high-resolution image helps improve visibility across entrances, driveways, commercial premises, warehouses and outdoor surveillance areas.
ColorVu 3.0 Full-Colour Imaging
Hikvision ColorVu 3.0 technology combines a high-performance image sensor, F1.0 super-aperture lens and advanced image processing.
This helps capture detailed colour images in low-light environments, improving the visibility of important security details.
When additional illumination is needed, the camera can use its integrated white-light system to support colour surveillance.
HikAI-ISP Intelligent Image Processing
HikAI-ISP technology provides advanced image processing and noise reduction, helping preserve useful image detail during challenging night-time surveillance.
This intelligent processing helps produce clearer images while reducing unwanted visual noise.
Smart Hybrid Light Technology
The camera combines infrared and white-light illumination with three selectable lighting modes.
Installers can configure infrared, white-light or smart hybrid operation to suit the security environment.
Smart Hybrid Light provides flexible night-time surveillance while supporting colour imaging when white-light illumination is activated.
30m Supplementary Illumination
The camera supports supplementary lighting at distances of up to 30 metres.
Actual illumination performance depends on the selected lighting mode and installation conditions.
130dB Wide Dynamic Range
The DS-2CD2187G3-LIS2UY features 130dB WDR to help balance bright and dark areas within the same surveillance scene.
This is particularly useful for building entrances, doorways and locations exposed to strong backlighting.
Intelligent Human and Vehicle Detection
Advanced deep-learning algorithms help distinguish humans and vehicles from other moving objects.
This improves the relevance of security notifications and helps reduce unnecessary alerts caused by environmental movement.
Face Capture Functionality
The camera supports intelligent face capture for compatible security monitoring applications.
This provides additional flexibility for professional installations requiring face-related security events.
Intelligent Perimeter Protection
The camera supports line crossing, intrusion detection, region entrance and region exiting functions.
Human and vehicle classification can be applied to supported security events.
Built-In Dual Microphones
The DS-2CD2187G3-LIS2UY includes an integrated arrayed dual-microphone system for audio capture.
The microphones support audio monitoring through compatible Hikvision recording systems.
The camera also provides external audio input and output interfaces for compatible audio equipment.
Audio recording must be configured and used in accordance with applicable privacy and surveillance regulations.
2.8mm and 4mm Fixed Lens Options
The camera is available with 2.8mm and 4mm fixed-lens options.
The 2.8mm lens provides wider coverage, while the 4mm lens offers a narrower viewing angle.
The correct lens should be selected according to the installation location and required surveillance coverage.
H.265+ Video Compression
Hikvision H.265+ compression helps reduce video storage requirements and network bandwidth consumption when used with compatible equipment.
This supports efficient recording of high-resolution 4K surveillance footage.
Local microSD Recording
The camera supports compatible microSD cards up to 512GB.
Local storage can provide an additional recording option alongside compatible network video recorders.
Power over Ethernet
Power over Ethernet allows the camera to receive network communication and electrical power through compatible Ethernet infrastructure.
This simplifies installation and reduces the need for separate power cabling.
IP67 Weather Protection
The camera features IP67-rated protection against dust and water ingress.
This makes it suitable for properly installed indoor and outdoor CCTV applications.
IK10 Vandal-Resistant Housing
The durable IK10-rated dome housing provides enhanced protection against physical impacts.
This makes the camera suitable for exposed installation locations where vandal resistance is important.
NEMA 4X Anti-Corrosion Protection
The camera features a NEMA 4X-rated anti-corrosion design for enhanced durability in demanding environments.
Hikvision classifies this model as providing moderate anti-corrosion protection.
Installers should assess environmental conditions before using the camera in highly corrosive locations.
