§ 01Overview

What the DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL is

Lens: fixed dual 4mm (spliced 180° view).

The DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL is the one-camera answer to covering everything in front of a wall, in colour, at night.

Two 1/1.8-inch sensors splice into a single 5120 by 1440 panorama spanning 180 degrees horizontally, and white light supplement to 30 metres keeps the whole half-circle in colour down to 0.0005 lux.

The two halves meet at a soft blend line you position when you set the camera up.

It also answers back: cross a line or zone and the camera fires a white light flash and an audible warning through its speaker (lab-rated 95dB at 10cm), with a built-in mic for two-way audio through Hik-Connect, plus alarm and audio line in and out for integration.

The honest trade-offs of a panorama: identification runs to about 7 metres, so this is a close-quarters sweep camera, not a long-range one, and the spliced stream records at 20fps (12.5fps with WDR on) rather than 25.

White light is the only night mode, there is no infrared on this model, so plan for visible light when it is dark.

On-board storage is a 256GB MicroSD ceiling, standard 802.3af PoE at 10.5W max, metal IP67 housing.

What the DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL 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.

Full Color Night Vision

Unlike plain black-and-white night vision, this camera can capture colour after dark — so you can pick out the actual colour of a car, a jacket or a bag, detail that grey infrared footage loses.

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.

Two-Way Audio

Talk and listen in real time through the app — tell a courier where to leave a parcel, or speak to someone at the gate, whether you're home or away.

Strobe Light

On detecting activity, the camera can trigger a bright flashing strobe to make an intruder aware they've been spotted — a visible warning rather than silent recording.

§ 04Why choose this

Built for the way you actually use the DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL

One camera where two used to go

180 degrees from a single mount means one PoE run, one NVR channel and one timeline. The two lenses meet at a soft blend line you position during setup, far less hassle than aligning two separate cameras.

The whole frontage in colour

White light to 30 metres keeps the full half-circle in colour at night, clothing and vehicle colours readable across the entire sweep.

It sweeps and it speaks

A zone crossing anywhere in the panorama fires the light flash and a warning, and two-way audio handles the conversation that follows.

Sweep, don't reach

Honest fit: identification to about 7 metres and 20fps make this a close-quarters camera. For one approach at distance, the G3 turret is the better tool.

§ 05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

Verandahs and patios

One mount at the centre of the wall sees both corners at once, in colour, the spot two cameras or one compromise angle usually covers badly.

Shopfronts and forecourts

The whole frontage on one timeline: window, door and footpath approach, with a warning at the glass for whoever lingers after close.

Courtyards and carparks

A half-circle of colour coverage from one PoE run, and the white light doubles as area lighting when something moves.

Between-building gaps

Mounted in a breezeway or against a fence, it watches both directions at once where a normal lens forces a choice.

Installation & setup

01

What's in the Box

1. Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL Camera × 1 2. Drill Template and Screw Kit × 1 3. Quick Start Guide × 1

02

Installation Requirements

1. Power: any 802.3af PoE NVR port or switch (max 10.5W). A separate 12V DC adapter is only needed without PoE. 2. Network: a wired Ethernet run back to your NVR or switch, PoE carries power and video together on the same line. 3. Mounting: centre of the wall or eave you want swept, 2.5 to 3 metres up, the 180-degree view makes position matter more than aim.

03

App Setup

1. Activate the camera with a strong password, then add it to the Hik-Connect app via QR code. 2. Enable push notifications, and pick the warning tone or record your own message with schedules for the light flash and audio. 3. Draw line crossing and intrusion zones on the panorama, keeping footpaths and the neighbour's frontage out of them.

§ 07Questions

Frequently asked about the DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL

Q.01

How does one camera cover 180 degrees?

Two sensors sit side by side and the camera splices their images into one 5120 by 1440 image across a full half-circle on a single NVR channel. The two halves join at a soft blend line you position when you set the camera up.
Q.02

Where is the best place to position it?

Set the stitching distance to the range that matters most, such as your gate or main path, so the cleanest blend falls there. Mount it around 2.5 to 3 metres on the centre of the wall or eave you want swept, the 180-degree view makes position matter more than aim.
Q.03

How far can it identify someone?

About 7 metres. This is a close-quarters camera built to sweep the space in front of a wall, not to reach down a driveway. Detection runs much further out and the white light to 30 metres, so you will see activity well beyond the distance at which you can identify a face.
Q.04

Why does it record at 20fps instead of 25?

Splicing two sensors into one panorama in real time caps the frame rate at 20fps, or 12.5fps with WDR switched on. In practice motion stays smooth and evidence stays sharp, a number worth knowing rather than a problem you will see.
Q.05

Does it have infrared, or white light only?

White light only. Colour at night is the point of this model, and in full darkness the light is on when the scene needs it. If invisible night vision matters at this spot, the hybrid G2H-LISU/SL is the better fit.
Q.06

Will the white light annoy the neighbours?

It can if it points at them, as a 30-metre white floodlight is part of how ColorVu makes colour at night. Aim the camera into your own property, use smart mode so the light only fires on real detections, or run infrared mode where any visible light is unwelcome.
Q.07

How do the light flash and warning work?

When a person or vehicle crosses a line or zone anywhere in the panorama, the camera flashes its white light and plays an audible warning, a siren tone or a spoken message, through the speaker (lab-rated 95dB at 10cm). Classification keeps animals and passing headlights from triggering it.
Q.08

How does the human and vehicle detection work?

Deep learning on the camera classifies what triggered an event as a person, a vehicle, or neither, so a possum, rain or moving branches stay off your phone. Line crossing, intrusion and region entry and exit zones each trigger only on the target types you choose.
Q.09

Can I talk through the camera from my phone?

Yes. The built-in microphone and speaker give two-way audio through the Hik-Connect app: hear what is happening across the frontage and speak to whoever is there, live.
Q.10

Can I store footage on the camera without an NVR?

You can. It takes a MicroSD card up to 256GB (not included) and streams to the Hik-Connect app, and it supports NAS storage and ANR to backfill gaps if the network drops. Most buyers still pair it with an NVR for longer retention.
Q.11

Which NVR do I need for this camera?

Any current Hikvision PoE NVR records it, and because the human and vehicle classification runs in the camera itself, smart filtering and the strobe and audio linkage work on the M-series recorders we build our 8MP ColorVu kits on, such as the DS-7608NI-M2/8P. Update the NVR firmware before adding the camera.
Q.12

Will it work with a non-Hikvision NVR?

Yes. It is ONVIF conformant (Profile S, G and T), so you keep video and motion events on a third-party recorder. The smoothest experience with smart filtering, two-way audio and the Hik-Connect app stays within the Hikvision ecosystem.
Q.13

Is a Hikvision camera safe to use in Australia?

Hikvision equipment was removed from federal government sites in 2023 as a precaution, and there is no restriction on private or business use. This camera does not need a cloud account: it records to your NVR, works fully offline, and supports HTTPS, TLS and 802.1X authentication. If you want zero outbound traffic, put the system on an isolated network and it still records locally.
Q.14

Which 8MP 2387 ColorVu should I buy?

Three cameras, one job, colour at night in 4K. The G3-LIS2UY/SL is the flagship: arrayed dual mics, the louder 110dB speaker, NEMA 4X salt-air housing and EIS, on a PoE+ port. The G2H-LISU/SL keeps the strobe, warnings and two-way talk on standard PoE for less. The G2P-LSU/SL sweeps a full 180 degrees from one mount where the job is wide coverage rather than reach.
Q.15

What warranty coverage applies in Australia?

The camera carries a 3-year warranty covering defects. Buy through an authorised ANZ channel so the warranty is honoured locally. Installation labour is not covered.
