Hikvision DS-2SE4C425MWG-E/14(F0) 4MP TandemVu ColorVu PTZ
The Hikvision DS-2SE4C425MWG-E/14(F0) is a 4 MP TandemVu PTZ that pairs a fixed wide-angle ColorVu lens with a 25x optical zoom PTZ lens, so one camera keeps the whole scene in view while it zooms in on a detail. It adds AcuSense human and vehicle detection, two-way audio and dual-light night vision.
Key points
- 4 MP (2560 x 1440) on both the fixed and PTZ lenses
- TandemVu: wide overview plus 25x optical zoom at the same time
- AcuSense human and vehicle detection with PTZ auto-tracking
- White light to 30 m (full colour) and PTZ infrared to 100 m
- Two built-in microphones and a built-in speaker for two-way audio
- IP67 metal body with heater; 12 VDC or PoE (802.3at)

§ 01Overview
What the DS-2SE4C425MWG-E/14(F0) is
The Hikvision DS-2SE4C425MWG-E/14(F0) is a 4 MP TandemVu PTZ camera.
The TandemVu design carries two lenses in one body: a fixed 2.8 mm wide-angle lens that always shows the whole scene, and a 25x optical zoom PTZ lens that pans, tilts and zooms onto a detail.
You never lose the overview while the PTZ is zoomed in, which solves the usual problem of a PTZ being pointed away from an incident.
On-board AcuSense deep learning classifies people and vehicles and filters out movement from trees, rain and animals, so alerts are far more useful.
When the wide lens detects a person or vehicle, the PTZ can swing across and follow the target automatically, then return to its home view.
The fixed lens uses ColorVu with a white light up to 30 m for full-colour images at night, while the PTZ lens uses infrared up to 100 m for long-range night reach, where the zoomed image is black and white.
Two built-in microphones and a built-in speaker give two-way audio, so an operator can listen and talk back through the camera.
This is a metal speed dome rated IP67 with a built-in heater and demister for the Australian climate, supporting up to 300 presets, patrols and patterns.
It runs on 12 VDC or PoE (802.3at), so check your switch or recorder supplies 802.3at.
Record it to a Hikvision AcuSense NVR so the AI events stay quick to search.

§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
What's in the box
One DS-2SE4C425MWG-E/14(F0) PTZ speed dome with mounting hardware and a quick guide. The PoE (802.3at) source or 12 VDC supply, network cable, microSD card and any wall or pole bracket are supplied separately.
Installation requirements
Mount it high on a wall, pole or rooftop corner with a clear view of the area, and run one network cable back to a switch or NVR that supplies 802.3at, or use 12 VDC. Set the home view, presets, patrols and AcuSense rules in the software, and record it to a Hikvision AcuSense NVR.

§ 09Bundles
Recommended packages
Record and review it
Feed it to a Hikvision AcuSense recorder such as the 8-channel DS-7608NI-M2/8P NVR, or the 16-channel DS-7616NI-M2/16P for larger sites. Add a surveillance-grade drive like the 8 TB for weeks of continuous footage.
Power it over one cable
Run a single network cable per camera from a PoE source. The HiLook 8-port PoE switch feeds several cameras and the recorder, keeping the cabling tidy on multi-camera sites.
Mind the power class
This PTZ needs 802.3at PoE, not basic PoE. Power it from an 802.3at port on the recorder or a dedicated injector so the motors, zoom, heater and lights all run reliably.
