04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DS-2DE4A425IWG-E
DarkFighter Low-Light Performance
1/2.8" CMOS with 0.005 lux colour sensitivity. Maintains usable colour footage in dim conditions without supplemental lighting.
50 m Smart IR
IR LEDs adjust intensity based on zoom level and scene distance. No blown-out close-range objects or dark far edges.
Smart Tracking
Auto-tracks a moving person or vehicle across the scene. Supports up to 300 presets and 8 patrol routes for scheduled coverage.
IP66 with Lightning Protection
Sealed dome rated IP66. TVS 6000V surge protection handles nearby lightning strikes. Operates from -30°C to 65°C.
05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Large Car Park or Compound
Mount on a pole at 4–6 m. Set patrol routes to sweep the lot, with auto-tracking to follow anyone moving between vehicles.
Construction Site Perimeter
25× zoom reads signage and identifies workers at distance. IR covers the site at night. IP66 handles dust and rain.
School or Campus Grounds
Patrol presets cover entry gates, play areas, and car parks on a schedule. Face capture can be enabled for access monitoring.
Warehouse Yard or Loading Area
Ceiling or pole-mount with a clear line of sight. Zoom in on truck plates or track forklifts moving across the yard.
