§ 04Why choose this

Built for the way you actually use the DS-2CD2087G2H-LIU/SL

8MP 4K with F1.0 Super Aperture

1/1.8" sensor at 3840 × 2160. The F1.0 lens pulls in more light than standard cameras, keeping colour detail in near-dark scenes.

Smart Hybrid Light

Automatically switches between IR and warm LED. Colour footage when a person is detected, IR when the scene is quiet — no constant glare.

Live Guard with Strobe and Speaker

Built-in strobe light and speaker trigger on human or vehicle detection. Supports custom voice messages and two-way talk.

130 dB WDR

Handles bright shopfront windows and dark awnings in the same shot. Critical at building entrances with mixed lighting.

AcuSense Deep Learning

Classifies human and vehicle targets. Supports face capture and perimeter protection. Cuts false alarms from animals and leaves.

§ 05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

Driveway and Fence Line

Bullet shape aims naturally down a long path. Hybrid light gives colour footage of approaching vehicles at night.

Shopfront or Building Entry

Mount above the door. 130 dB WDR handles glass-front sunlight. Strobe and speaker warn off after-hours intruders.

Side of House or Laneway

Compact mini bullet fits on a wall or soffit. IP67 handles rain and sprinklers.

Loading Dock or Service Lane

Point along the service road. 8 MP captures plate details. Two-way talk communicates with delivery drivers.

§ 07Questions

Frequently asked about the DS-2CD2087G2H-LIU/SL

Q.01

How is this different from the turret version (DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL)?

Same sensor and features in a mini bullet body. The bullet suits wall mounting pointing outward along a fence or driveway. The turret is more discreet on a ceiling or soffit.

Q.02

Does it stay in colour all night?

In Smart Hybrid Light mode, it uses IR when quiet and switches to warm LED when it detects someone. You can also set it to full-colour all the time.

Q.03

What lens options are available?

2.8 mm (wide, ~108°) or 4 mm (~93°). The 2.8 mm is the default for most residential installs.

Q.04

Does it have alarm I/O?

Yes. 1 alarm input and 1 alarm output. Plus audio input and output for external devices.

Q.05

Is it vandal-proof?

No IK rating on this mini bullet model. It is IP67 weatherproof. For vandal resistance, look at the dome version.
