§ 01Overview

What the HIK-2CE17U8T-IT is

The Hikvision DS-2CE17U8T-IT is an 8 MP (4K) Turbo HD outdoor bullet that delivers true 4K resolution over coaxial cable.

It belongs to Hikvision's TVI 4.0 range, which exists for one reason: to upgrade an existing analogue site to high definition without pulling new cable.

If a building already has coax to each camera point, this lets you reach 3840 x 2160 detail for face and number-plate work without the cost and disruption of rewiring to IP.

It is built for image quality in tough light.

An 8.29-megapixel ultra-low-light sensor holds colour down to 0.003 Lux, 120 dB true Wide Dynamic Range balances bright sky against shaded ground, and 3D digital noise reduction keeps the picture clean after dark.

Infrared 2.0 Smart IR reaches up to 40 metres and dials the brightness back so close subjects are not washed out.

The camera comes with a fixed 2.8, 3.6 or 6 mm lens, and the IP67 metal housing is rated for exposed outdoor positions.

Two points decide whether this is the right camera.

First, it is analogue HD-TVI, not an IP camera: it must connect to a DVR that supports 8 MP Turbo HD over coax, and it does not use PoE, so it will not plug into a network switch or NVR.

Second, it is powered by 12 VDC, supplied separately or down the coax run as your DVR system allows, and you can control settings up the coax.

At 8 MP the frame rate is around 12.5 to 15 fps, which suits detailed monitoring rather than fast action.

It records audio? No, this is a video-only camera.

What the HIK-2CE17U8T-IT features actually look like

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

8MP Ultra HD

8MP (4K) resolution captures four times the detail of 1080p.
Even when a person or car is far down the driveway, you can zoom in and still recognise a face or read a number plate — detail that lower-resolution cameras lose.

40m IR Night Vision

Built-in infrared sees in total darkness up to around 40m, reaching further across a larger yard or laneway. Subjects appear in clear black-and-white, sharper and brighter as they get closer.

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 HIK-2CE17U8T-IT

4K without re-cabling

TVI 4.0 sends true 8 MP video over your existing coax, so you upgrade an analogue site to 4K without the cost of rewiring to IP.

Clear in tough light

An ultra-low-light sensor, 120 dB true WDR and 3D DNR keep faces and plates readable against bright sky and after dark.

Reliable night coverage

EXIR 2.0 Smart IR reaches 40 metres and balances brightness so close subjects stay clear, not washed out.

Built for outdoors

An IP67 metal body and a choice of three fixed lenses make it a straightforward, weatherproof upgrade for any coax site.

§ 05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

Analogue site upgrades

Replace ageing analogue cameras with 4K detail while keeping the existing coax cabling and DVR-based system.

Retail and forecourts

High-resolution coverage of entrances, tills and fuel pumps where face and plate detail matters.

Yards and car parks

Wide outdoor coverage with strong night vision on sites already wired for coax.

Warehouses and loading docks

Detailed monitoring of doors and bays in high-contrast lighting, without a network rebuild.

§ 06Setup

Installation & setup

01

Check your recorder

Confirm your DVR supports 8 MP (4K) Turbo HD over coax. This camera will not work on an IP NVR or network switch, so the DVR is the first thing to match.

02

Power and cabling

Run video over the existing coax and provide 12 VDC at the camera, either from a local supply or a combined power-and-video coax setup. There is no PoE.

03

Mounting

Fix the IP67 bullet to a wall or eave aimed along the area you want covered, and pick the 2.8, 3.6 or 6 mm lens for the right field of view.

04

Setup

Adjust settings up the coax from the DVR, set the WDR and IR behaviour, and use the CVBS output if you need a quick local view during install.

§ 07Questions

Frequently asked about the HIK-2CE17U8T-IT

Q.01

Will this camera work with my NVR?

No. It is an analogue HD-TVI (Turbo HD) camera, so it connects to a DVR that supports 8 MP Turbo HD over coax, not to an IP NVR or a network switch. If your system is IP-based, you need an IP camera instead.
Q.02

How does it give 4K over old cabling?

TVI 4.0 carries the 8 MP 4K signal over standard coaxial cable, so you can upgrade an existing analogue site to 4K resolution without running new network cable. It is designed specifically for re-using coax.
Q.03

How is it powered?

It runs on 12 VDC, supplied separately or through your DVR cabling. It does not use PoE, so plan a DC power supply at the camera or a combined power-and-video coax solution.
Q.04

How far does it see at night?

Infrared 2.0 Smart IR reaches up to 40 metres and automatically reduces brightness so nearby subjects are not overexposed. The infrared image is black and white in the dark, which is normal for an IR camera.
Q.05

What frame rate do I get at 8 MP?

At full 8 MP (4K) the frame rate is around 12.5 fps on PAL or 15 fps on NTSC. That suits detailed, mostly static monitoring; if you need higher frame rates, the camera also outputs lower resolutions at faster speeds.
Q.06

Does it record audio?

No, this is a video-only camera with no microphone or audio input. If you need sound, choose a camera and DVR combination that supports audio over coax.
Q.07

Which lens should I pick?

It comes in 2.8 mm for a wide view (about 102 degrees), 3.6 mm for a balanced angle (about 79 degrees) and 6 mm for a tighter, longer reach (about 51 degrees). Choose the lens for the area you want each camera to cover.

§ 09Bundles

Recommended packages

01

Match it to a Turbo HD DVR

This is a coax camera, so pair it with a DVR that supports 8 MP Turbo HD, such as the iDS-7208HTHI-M2/S 8MP 8-channel DVR, which also accepts HD-TVI, AHD, CVI, CVBS and IP.

03

Plan for 4K bandwidth

Size the DVR and drive for 8 MP recording across your cameras, and keep coax runs within spec so the 4K signal stays clean over distance.
