Hilook PTZ-N4225I-DE 2MP 25X DarkFighter IR 4-inch PTZ Network Camera

HiLook PTZ-N4225I-DE 2MP 25X DarkFighter IR PTZ Network Speed Dome Camera

The HiLook PTZ-N4225I-DE is a professional 2MP Full HD 25X optical zoom PTZ network speed dome camera manufactured by Hikvision. Designed for large-area surveillance, it combines powerful motorised pan, tilt and zoom control with Powered-by-DarkFighter low-light imaging and up to 100 metres of infrared night vision.

Featuring a 1/2.8-inch Progressive Scan CMOS sensor, the camera delivers detailed 1920 × 1080 Full HD video for commercial, industrial and residential security installations.

The integrated 4.8–120mm motorised zoom lens provides 25X optical zoom, allowing operators to monitor wide areas and zoom in on distant subjects without physically repositioning the camera.

Additional 16X digital zoom is available through compatible viewing software.

The camera supports 360-degree endless pan movement and a tilt range of −15° to +90° with auto-flip, providing flexible coverage of large surveillance areas.

Its Powered-by-DarkFighter technology improves low-light imaging performance, with a minimum colour illumination rating of 0.005 lux at F1.6.

Integrated Smart IR illumination provides night-time surveillance at manufacturer-specified distances of up to 100 metres.

The camera also features 120dB true Wide Dynamic Range, helping preserve image detail in challenging scenes containing strong sunlight, shadows and backlighting.

Advanced image enhancement functions include 3D Digital Noise Reduction, Backlight Compensation, Highlight Compensation and digital defog.

For automated surveillance, the HiLook PTZ-N4225I-DE supports 300 programmable presets, eight patrol routes and four pattern scans.

These functions allow installers to configure automatic monitoring sequences for car parks, warehouses, industrial yards, commercial buildings and perimeter security applications.

Supported intelligent security events include line crossing detection, intrusion detection, region entrance detection, region exiting detection, unattended baggage detection and object removal detection.

The camera supports H.265+ video compression, helping reduce network bandwidth and storage requirements when used with compatible recording equipment.

A built-in memory card slot supports compatible microSD cards up to 256GB, providing local recording flexibility.

For professional system integration, the camera includes one external audio input and one external audio output. External audio accessories are required where audio functionality is needed.

The camera supports IEEE 802.3at PoE+ Class 4 or 12V DC power, with maximum power consumption of approximately 18W.

Its durable IP66-rated outdoor housing provides protection against dust and water ingress when correctly installed.

Combining 25X optical zoom, 100m infrared night vision, DarkFighter imaging, 120dB WDR, 360° PTZ movement and programmable patrol functions, the HiLook PTZ-N4225I-DE offers professional surveillance capabilities for large properties and demanding security installations.
