For larger commercial entrances and exterior areas where additional image detail is important, the DS-2CD2387G2-LSU/SL combines 8MP ColorVu imaging with human and vehicle classification, active visual and audible warnings, and built-in two-way audio.
The 1/1.2-inch image sensor, F1.0 aperture, and white light illumination support 24/7 color imaging in low-light environments. With illumination up to 30 meters, the camera can preserve useful color information around storefronts, parking entrances, service yards, vehicle gates, and other areas monitored after dark.
Deep learning-based human and vehicle classification supports more relevant perimeter events, including line crossing, intrusion, region entrance, and region exit detection. When configured with supported events, the built-in strobe light and audible warning can provide an immediate on-site response, while the microphone and speaker allow real-time communication through compatible surveillance platforms.
The camera also includes 130 dB WDR for challenging backlit scenes, onboard microSD storage up to 512 GB, Audio I/O, alarm input and output, H.265+ compression, PoE support, ONVIF Profile S/G/T compatibility, and an IP67-rated metal housing for professional outdoor installations.
