What the DS-2DF8442IXS-AELWY(T5) 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.
False Alarm Reduction
Filtering helps separate real activity from harmless movement like rain, leaves or pets, so you get fewer pointless notifications and the alerts that matter stand out.
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-2DF8442IXS-AELWY(T5)
400 m IR Night Vision
The longest IR range in the Hikvision PTZ lineup. Covers large open areas, perimeters, and long roads in complete darkness.
DarkFighter 1/1.8" Sensor
0.002 lux colour performance. Maintains usable colour footage before IR activates.
Face Capture and Vehicle Detection
Deep learning captures and grades faces in motion. Also detects vehicles for road-traffic applications.
IP67 + IK10 Heavy-Duty Build
8-inch dome with full metal construction. TVS 6000V lightning protection. Operates from -40°C to 65°C.
05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Large Industrial Site or Port
400 m IR lights up an entire compound. 42× zoom reads plates and identifies people at extreme range.
Highway or Road Monitoring
Vehicle detection and face capture support traffic analytics. DarkFighter handles headlights and low ambient light.
Airport or Critical Infrastructure
360° pan with rapid preset recall. Face capture indexes targets for fast search. IK10 resists tampering.

Installation Requirements
- Power: PoE++ (Hi-PoE, 60W) or 24V AC. This is a high-power PTZ — standard PoE is not enough.
- Cable: Cat5e or Cat6, max 100 m for PoE++. 24V AC requires a separate power run.
- Mounting: Pole, wall, or parapet mount. Camera weighs about 8.5 kg — use heavy-duty brackets rated for the load plus wind.
- Height: 6–10 m for best 42× zoom performance.

08Questions
Frequently asked about the DS-2DF8442IXS-AELWY(T5)
Q.01
Does it need PoE++?
Yes. It draws up to 60 W. Standard PoE (15 W) and PoE+ (30 W) are not enough. Use a Hi-PoE injector or 24V AC.
Q.02
How far can the 42× zoom actually see?
At 252 mm, the field of view is about 1.5°. In good light you can identify a person at 200+ metres and read a plate at 100+ metres.
Q.03
Is 4 MP enough at this zoom level?
Yes. At full zoom the field of view is very narrow, so 4 MP captures plenty of detail in that small area.
Q.04
Does it have a wiper?
Some variants (AELW) include a wiper. Check the specific model suffix. The AELY variant does not include a wiper.
Q.05
How heavy is it?
About 8.5 kg. Plan your bracket and pole accordingly.
Buying from Smarket
Is your Hikvision, Dahua, HiLook and TP-Link VIGI stock genuine Australian stock?
Yes, 100%. Every Hikvision, Dahua, HiLook and TP-Link VIGI product we sell is a genuine Australian-market model sourced through Australian supply chains — never grey imports. That means factory-sealed units, Australian-region firmware that works with the official apps out of the box, and a full 3-year local warranty.
How long does delivery take?
Metro delivery usually takes 2–4 business days after dispatch, and regional areas may take longer. You'll receive a tracking number by email as soon as your order leaves the warehouse.
How much is shipping?
Standard shipping is free on all orders over $300 AUD, Australia-wide. Orders under $300 ship at a flat rate of $25, calculated at checkout. Tracking is included on every order.
What warranty do you offer?
All cameras, NVRs and DVRs come with a 3-year back-to-base manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law. Hard drives and accessories are covered as set out in our Warranty Policy.
What is your return policy?
You have 30 days from the day you receive your order to request a change-of-mind return. Items must be unopened, factory-sealed and in resalable condition. A 15% restocking fee applies and return postage is at your cost. Faulty or incorrectly supplied items are different: we cover the return shipping and refund or replace at no charge. Read the full Return & Refund Policy.
Do you offer installation?
