    § 01Overview

    What the DS-2CD2146G2-I is

    The Hikvision DS-2CD2146G2-I is a 4 MP fixed dome that focuses on dependable, low-maintenance surveillance.

    The 1/3" sensor records 2688 x 1520 video at 25 fps, and 120 dB WDR balances harsh backlight against shadow, so doorways, carports and shop interiors stay clear through the day.

    Its main advantage over a basic dome is AcuSense.

    Hikvision's deep-learning analytics classify human and vehicle targets, so motion, line-crossing and intrusion alarms trigger on people and cars and ignore cats, rain and waving branches.

    That cuts the nuisance alerts and lets you search recordings by person or vehicle, which saves real time when you need to find an event.

    At night the camera uses infrared up to 30 m, so the night image is clear black-and-white rather than colour.

    It is built to last in an exposed position.

    The dome is rated IP67 against dust and rain and IK10 against impact and vandalism, and it accepts a 2.8 mm, 4 mm or 6 mm lens to match the field of view to the area.

    Power and network it over a single PoE cable, or use 12 VDC, and record it to a Hikvision AcuSense NVR to keep the human and vehicle events easy to find.

    This is a video-only camera with no built-in microphone, so it does not record audio.

    What the DS-2CD2146G2-I features actually look like

    Representative illustrations of how each key feature performs in a real scene.

    4MP Ultra HD

    4MP captures roughly twice the detail of standard 1080p.

    30m IR Night Vision

    Built-in infrared lets the camera see in complete darkness up to around 30m — enough for a typical driveway, front yard or entrance. People and vehicles stay clear in black-and-white, brighter the closer they are.

    Human/Vehicle Detection

    Smart detection focuses on people and vehicles and can ignore things like swaying branches, rain or small animals — helping cut down false alerts and making the right moments easier to find.

    IP67 Weatherproof

    Sealed against dust and water to IP67, built to keep working through rain, storms and harsh sun — suitable for fully outdoor mounting.

    § 04Why choose this

    Built for the way you actually use the DS-2CD2146G2-I

    Fewer false alarms

    AcuSense human and vehicle classification keeps alerts focused on people and cars, not animals or weather.

    Built tough

    An IP67 and IK10 dome shrugs off heavy rain, dust and impact in exposed positions.

    Clear 4K detail

    2688 x 1520 resolution and 120 dB WDR keep backlit doorways and forecourts readable.

    Flexible coverage

    Choose a 2.8 mm, 4 mm or 6 mm lens to fit the camera to the area you need to watch.

    § 05Where it fits

    Right at home in these scenarios

    Entrances and lobbies

    Watch who comes and goes with searchable human events and a vandal-resistant dome.

    Car parks

    Cover parking bays and pick out people and vehicles while ignoring passing wildlife at night.

    Shops and offices

    Keep a clear 4K record indoors with a discreet dome that resists tampering.

    Warehouses and yards

    Use the 6 mm lens to reach down an aisle or boundary and flag real intruders.

    § 06Setup

    Installation & setup

    01

    What's in the box

    One DS-2CD2146G2-I fixed dome camera with a mounting template, fixings and a quick guide. The PoE switch or NVR, network cable, microSD card and any junction box are supplied separately.

    02

    Installation requirements

    Mount it on a wall or ceiling above the area to cover and run a single network cable to a PoE switch or NVR, or wire 12 VDC. Adjust the dome to frame the scene, set the AcuSense rules in the software, and add it to a Hikvision AcuSense NVR for recording and event search.

    § 07Questions

    Frequently asked about the DS-2CD2146G2-I

    Q.01

    Does the DS-2CD2146G2-I see in colour at night?

    No. This model uses infrared up to 30 m, so the night image is black-and-white. If you want full-colour night footage, look at a ColorVu or Smart Hybrid Light model that adds a white-light supplement instead of relying on infrared alone.
    Q.02

    What does AcuSense actually do?

    AcuSense is Hikvision's deep-learning analytics that classify human and vehicle targets. Instead of alarming on any movement, it triggers on people and cars and ignores animals, rain and swaying trees, which cuts false alarms and lets you filter recordings by person or vehicle.
    Q.03

    Does this camera have a microphone?

    No. The DS-2CD2146G2-I is a video-only dome with no built-in microphone, so it does not record audio. The DS-2CD2146G2-ISU version adds a built-in microphone if audio is important to you.
    Q.04

    Is it strong enough for a vandal-prone spot?

    Yes. The dome is rated IK10 for impact resistance and IP67 against dust and water, so it suits entrances, car parks and other places where a camera could be knocked, hit or exposed to heavy weather.
    Q.05

    Which lens should I choose?

    The 2.8 mm gives the widest view for a room, doorway or small forecourt, the 4 mm narrows it for a driveway or longer space, and the 6 mm reaches further down a path or aisle. Pick the focal length that matches how far you need to see.
    Q.06

    How do I power and record it?

    It runs on standard PoE over one network cable from a PoE switch or NVR, or on 12 VDC. For recording, connect it to a Hikvision AcuSense NVR so the human and vehicle events are stored and searchable, or use the onboard microSD card for local storage up to 512 GB.
    Q.07

    Will it work indoors as well as outdoors?

    Yes. The IP67 rating means it is happy outdoors in rain and dust, and the same camera works just as well indoors for a shop, office or warehouse, where the IK10 housing also resists knocks and tampering.

    § 09Bundles

    Recommended packages

    01

    Record and search it

    Connect it to a Hikvision DS-7608NI-M2/8P NVR, or a larger DS-7616NI-M2/16P, that supports AcuSense human and vehicle search so the events stay easy to find.

    02

    Add audio if you need it

    If you want sound at this location, choose the DS-2CD2146G2-ISU microphone version, or add an audio-capable camera nearby on the same NVR.
