§ 01Overview

What the DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL(Y) is

The Hikvision DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL is a 4 MP Ultra-series network speed dome built for large, demanding sites such as airports, ports, industrial yards and council precincts.

Its 36x optical zoom (6 to 216 mm) reaches a long way down a perimeter or runway, and a 360 degree endless pan with fast, accurate movement lets it cover a wide area and snap to presets or 3D-positioning clicks.

A built-in gyroscope assists electronic image stabilisation, which keeps the long-zoom image steady on a high pole or in wind.

This is a deep-learning camera, not just a zoom lens.

It detects and classifies people, faces and vehicles, runs perimeter rules such as line crossing and intrusion that can alarm on a chosen target type, and supports auto-tracking that locks onto a person or vehicle and follows it.

That target classification cuts the false alarms that weather and animals cause, and it makes the camera proactive rather than a passive recorder.

DarkFighter 2.0 holds usable colour in low light, but in darkness it uses infrared up to 300 m, so the long-range night image is black and white.

It carries 150 dB Wide Dynamic Range, optical defog and a metal housing rated IP67 and IK10 for weather and impact, and operates across a wide temperature range.

It is powered by PoE (802.3bt) or 36 VDC, which is a higher class than standard PoE, so check your switch, injector or recorder can supply it.

Audio is via a line-in and line-out for external devices rather than a built-in microphone.

Record it to a Hikvision NVR that supports the AI metadata and the bandwidth of a high-frame-rate PTZ.

What the DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL(Y) 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.

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-2DF7A436IXG-EL(Y)

Long-range zoom

A 36x optical zoom reaches far down a perimeter or yard and pulls in distant detail.

It tracks for you

Deep-learning detection auto-tracks people and vehicles and filters false alarms by target type.

Steady at full zoom

A gyroscope assists stabilisation, keeping the magnified image steady on a high pole.

Built for big, harsh sites

IP67, IK10, optical defog and 300 m infrared suit airports, ports and industrial yards.

§ 05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

Airports and ports

Watch and track across runways, aprons and quays with long-range zoom and auto-tracking.

Industrial yards and depots

Cover a large site from one high point and follow vehicles and people automatically.

City and council precincts

Monitor a wide public area and zoom in on incidents as they unfold.

Large perimeters

Patrol a long boundary and alarm only on human or vehicle intrusions.

§ 06Setup

Installation & setup

01

What's in the box

One DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL PTZ speed dome with mounting hardware and a quick guide. The 802.3bt PoE source or 36 VDC supply, network cable, microSD card and any pole or wall bracket are supplied separately.

02

Installation requirements

Mount it high with a clear, unobstructed view for the long zoom, and power it with PoE (802.3bt) or 36 VDC from a capable switch, injector or NVR. Set the presets, patrols, auto-tracking and AI rules in the software, and record it to a Hikvision NVR that supports the AI metadata and PTZ bandwidth.

§ 07Questions

Frequently asked about the DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL(Y)

Q.01

How far can the DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL see?

Its 36x optical zoom (6 to 216 mm) is built for long-range work, reaching well down a large perimeter, runway or yard. The infrared reaches up to 300 m at night, so it is designed for big open sites rather than a small property.
Q.02

Does it track people and vehicles automatically?

Yes. It uses deep-learning detection to classify people and vehicles and can auto-track a target, locking on and following it as it moves. Its perimeter rules can also be set to alarm only on a human or a vehicle, which cuts false alarms from weather and animals.
Q.03

Does it record in colour at night?

It uses DarkFighter 2.0 to hold usable colour in low light, but in darkness it switches to infrared up to 300 m, so the long-range night image is black and white. It is not a full-colour-at-night camera at distance.
Q.04

What power does it need?

It uses PoE (802.3bt) or 36 VDC. That is a higher power class than standard PoE or PoE+, because the zoom, motors, infrared and heater draw a lot, so make sure your switch, injector or NVR can supply 802.3bt.
Q.05

Does it have a built-in microphone?

No. It provides a line-in and a line-out for external audio devices rather than a built-in microphone or speaker. Add your own audio hardware if you need sound.
Q.06

Does it keep a steady image at full zoom?

Yes. A built-in gyroscope assists electronic image stabilisation, which is important at 36x where small movements are magnified, so it holds a steadier picture on a high pole or in wind.
Q.07

What recorder do I need?

Record it to a Hikvision NVR that supports its AI metadata and the bandwidth of a high-frame-rate PTZ, such as a 16-channel AcuSense NVR. Check the NVR or your switch can deliver 802.3bt power.
Q.08

Is it suitable for harsh outdoor sites?

Yes. It is rated IP67 against dust and water and IK10 against impact, with optical defog and a wide operating temperature range, so it suits exposed, large-scale outdoor deployments.

§ 09Bundles

Recommended packages

01

Record and review it

Feed it to a Hikvision AcuSense recorder such as the 16-channel DS-7732NXI-I4/16P NVR for larger sites, or the 8-channel DS-7608NI-I2/8P for smaller ones. Add a surveillance-grade drive like the 8 TB for weeks of continuous footage.

02

Power a high-power PTZ

This PTZ needs PoE (802.3bt) or 36 VDC, more than standard PoE. Use an 802.3bt port on the recorder, a dedicated 802.3bt injector, or the supplied power adaptor.

03

Pair with a fixed AI camera

Add a fixed deep-learning camera such as the DS-2CD7A46G0-IZS bullet at a key point so you keep constant coverage there while the PTZ patrols and zooms.
