The DS-2DE2C400MWG-E is a 4MP outdoor Smart Hybrid Light PT network camera designed for commercial locations that need flexible viewing control, intelligent human detection, two-way audio, and reliable outdoor monitoring. With 2560 × 1440 resolution and pan-tilt movement, it provides practical coverage for entrances, storefronts, walkways, service areas, parking access points, and small business exteriors.
Human detection helps the camera focus on relevant activity instead of general motion, while Auto-Tracking Lite supports automatic tracking of human targets within the camera’s movement range. This makes it useful for businesses that need improved awareness around entry points, exterior doors, and customer-facing outdoor areas.
Smart Hybrid Light combines infrared and white light illumination to support nighttime monitoring in different lighting conditions. With IR and white light range up to 30 meters, the camera can provide flexible visibility for commercial entrances, drive-up areas, loading zones, and outdoor walkways.
Built-in two-way audio allows real-time communication through compatible surveillance systems, while onboard microSD storage up to 512 GB supports local edge recording. With ONVIF compatibility, PoE support, remote management capability, and IP66 weather protection, the DS-2DE2C400MWG-E is a practical PT solution for professional commercial surveillance deployments.
