§ 04Why choose this

Built for the way you actually use it

4.8–120 mm lens. Covers wide areas and zooms into distant details from a small dome.

02

DarkFighter Low-Light Performance

Usable colour footage in very dim conditions before IR activates.

03

50 m Smart IR

Adjusts intensity to avoid close-range washout. Covers medium-size car parks and yards.

04

AcuSense with Smart Tracking

Classifies people and vehicles. Auto-tracks a moving target and returns to preset after.

05

IP66 with Lightning Protection

TVS 6000V surge protection. Operates from -30°C to 65°C.

§ 05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

01

Medium Car Park or Yard

Set patrol routes to sweep the area. 50 m IR covers the lot at night. 25× zoom identifies plates and faces.

02

School or Campus Gate

Preset positions cover the entry. Smart tracking follows suspicious movement.

03

Commercial Building Perimeter

Compact dome is less obtrusive than a full-size speed dome. 25× zoom still reaches across a car park.

04

Construction Site Entry

IP66 handles dust and rain. Zoom in to check workers and vehicles at the gate.

§ 07Questions

Frequently asked

Q.01

How is this different from the DS-2DE4A425IWG-E?

The IW-DE is the earlier revision. The IWG-E is the updated model with improved firmware. Core specs (25× zoom, 50 m IR, 4 MP) are essentially the same.
Q.02

Does it need PoE+?

Yes. The PTZ motor draws up to 24 W. Standard PoE (15 W) is not enough.
Q.03

Does it have a microphone?

Audio input and output ports for external devices. No built-in mic on the base model.
Q.04

Can it read number plates?

At full zoom (120 mm) you can read plates from about 50–80 m in good light. Not a dedicated ANPR camera but useful for general identification.
Q.05

Does it support microSD?

Yes, up to 256 GB.
