Detailed Features & Benefits
4MP High-Resolution PTZ Surveillance
The Hikvision DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL-Y provides detailed
2688 × 1520 resolution for monitoring
large outdoor environments.
Powerful 36X Optical Zoom
The 6–216mm motorised lens provides
36X optical zoom, allowing operators to examine
distant subjects with optical magnification.
300m Infrared Night Vision
Integrated infrared illumination supports night-time
surveillance at distances of up to 300 metres.
Actual identification performance depends on distance,
zoom, environmental conditions and target size.
DarkFighter 2.0 Low-Light Technology
Hikvision DarkFighter 2.0 improves image clarity
and detail in challenging low-light environments,
supporting professional surveillance during
dusk, dawn and night.
150dB Wide Dynamic Range
Advanced 150dB AWDR helps maintain
image detail in scenes with strong lighting contrasts.
This is useful for entrances, roads, transport facilities
and industrial environments.
Auto-Tracking 3.0
The camera supports Auto-Tracking 3.0,
allowing it to automatically follow supported moving
targets when appropriately configured.
Advanced Deep-Learning Analytics
Intelligent functions include perimeter protection,
human and vehicle detection, face capture,
multi-target detection and supported vehicle analytics.
Licence plate recognition is supported in designated
checkpoint scenarios and requires appropriate
installation and configuration.
360° High-Speed PTZ Movement
Continuous 360° pan and a tilt range from -20° to 90°
provide flexible surveillance coverage.
The PTZ mechanism supports rapid repositioning
between monitoring locations.
300 Presets and 8 Patrol Routes
Installers can configure up to 300 preset
positions and eight patrol routes for
automated monitoring of large sites.
Gyroscope-Assisted Image Stabilisation
A built-in gyroscope assists electronic image
stabilisation to reduce image movement caused
by vibration or structural movement.
