Designed for indoor commercial spaces that need compact video monitoring, intelligent event filtering, and real-time audio communication, the DS-2CD2443G2-IW combines 4MP imaging, AcuSense human and vehicle classification, PIR detection, Wi-Fi connectivity, and two-way audio in a cube-style housing.
The camera captures video at up to 2688 × 1520 resolution and is available with 2 mm, 2.8 mm, and 4 mm fixed lens options. These choices support applications ranging from wide office and retail coverage to more focused monitoring of reception areas, counters, entrances, and small commercial rooms.
AcuSense technology supports human and vehicle classification for motion, line crossing, and intrusion events. An integrated passive infrared sensor can detect human body heat within a range of up to 8 meters, adding another layer of event awareness for indoor monitoring.
The built-in microphone and speaker support two-way audio and audible warning functions. The camera also includes 120 dB WDR, Smart IR illumination up to 10 meters, H.265+ compression, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, IEEE 802.3af PoE, ONVIF Profile S/G/T compatibility, and onboard microSD storage up to 512 GB.
