Product Features
Technical Overview
At the core of the DS-2CD2087G2-L is an 8-megapixel CMOS sensor that records in 3840 x 2160 resolution, ensuring every frame is rich in detail. The camera supports modern video compression formats including H.265+, H.264+, and MJPEG, optimizing bandwidth and storage efficiency without compromising quality. Its color night vision capability extends to 131.23 feet (40 meters), powered by a large f/1.0 aperture that maximizes light intake for vivid nighttime imagery.
Advanced imaging features such as 3D Digital Noise Reduction, Back Light Compensation (BLC), and built-in HLC (Highlight Compensation) dynamically adjust exposure to handle challenging lighting scenarios like direct sunlight or headlights. The camera includes a built-in microphone for audio detection and supports privacy masking to secure sensitive areas within the frame. Remote management is enabled through wired connectivity, allowing administrators to configure settings, review footage, and receive alerts from any network location.
Key Product Advantages
The DS-2CD2087G2-L distinguishes itself with color night vision that maintains accurate color reproduction in low-light environments, a significant upgrade over monochrome infrared systems. This capability enhances forensic value by preserving details like clothing colors or vehicle paint, which are often lost in traditional night vision. Combined with 4K resolution, it ensures that surveillance footage is both comprehensive and evidentiary-grade.

- Reduced false alarms
Deployment / Use Cases
This camera is ideal for commercial and industrial surveillance where high-resolution monitoring and environmental resilience are critical. Its 4K output and color night vision make it perfect for identifying individuals and vehicles in detail, supporting applications like retail loss prevention, warehouse security, and critical infrastructure protection.
In outdoor settings such as parking garages, building perimeters, or construction sites, the IP67 rating and robust construction ensure continuous operation despite exposure to elements. The PoE capability simplifies deployment in networked systems, allowing power and data over a single cable, which reduces installation costs and enhances scalability for multi-camera setups.
Perimeter and Entryway Security
Deploy at gatehouses, fences, or building entrances to capture clear footage of all activity, with color night vision ensuring reliable identification during nighttime hours.
Large Area Monitoring
Use in parking lots, yards, or open spaces where the 4K resolution and wide field of view provide comprehensive coverage without sacrificing detail.
Physical Profile
The bullet design measures 3.10" wide, 3.09" high, and 8.47" deep (78.8 x 78.6 x 215.2 mm), with a weight of 1.90 lb (860 g). Its compact yet substantial build deters tampering while accommodating internal components for advanced imaging. The white finish blends with exterior surfaces, and the form factor supports discreet or prominent mounting based on security needs.
