Overview
The Hikvision DS-2CD2143G2-IS is a 4 MP (2688 × 1520) fixed‑lens dome network camera from Hikvision's EasyIP / AcuSense family. It delivers up to 30 fps at full resolution, supports H.265/H.265+/H.264 compression, and is built for outdoor use with IP67 weatherproofing and IK10 vandal resistance.

• 4 MP (2688 × 1520) sensor, up to 30 fps.
• AcuSense deep‑learning analytics: human/vehicle classification, face detection and perimeter behaviours (line‑cross, intrusion).
• H.265 / H.265+ and H.264 video compression with multiple streams for efficient recording and bandwidth economy.
• 2.8 mm fixed lens (≈103° horizontal FOV); 4 mm option available on other SKUs.
• Built‑in IR (850 nm) with smart supplement light — effective to approx. 30 m in typical conditions.
• 120 dB WDR, BLC/HLC and 3D DNR for challenging lighting environments.
• PoE (802.3af) or 12 VDC operation; audio line in/out on the -IS model.
• On‑board microSD card support (local storage/ANR). Some documentation references up to 256 GB; some sources list 512 GB depending on firmware/region.

Use cases
Suitable for outdoor perimeter, car park and general external surveillance where accurate human/vehicle detection reduces false alarms. Equally useful for retail and commercial sites requiring vandal‑resistant dome cameras with analytics.

Installation & compliance
Installations should be undertaken by a qualified installer in accordance with local regulations. Confirm CE / UKCA marking and any regional compliance documentation on the supplied unit and packaging prior to deployment. If using PoE, ensure switch/POE injector is compatible with IEEE 802.3af.
