The Hikvision DS-2DE5425IWG-4G is a professional-grade outdoor PTZ camera engineered for demanding security applications. Equipped with a 1/2.8″ progressive scan CMOS sensor and a 25× optical zoom lens (4.8 – 120 mm), it captures crisp 4 MP (2560 × 1440) images with fine detail across large distances.
The camera supports 360° pan and –15° to 90° tilt with auto-flip, ensuring seamless coverage of open areas. Its built-in IR illumination reaches up to 150 m for night operation, while its low-power modes (~3 W standby and ~0.3 W sleep) make it perfect for solar deployments or sites with power constraints.
Ruggedly built (IP66 metal housing with lightning and surge protection), the DS-2DE5425IWG-4G delivers smart analytics including face detection, intrusion, line crossing and region monitoring. It also features edge recording up to 256 GB and local Wi-Fi AP mode for on-site debugging.

Installer Notes
-
Power Planning: For solar use, size your panel and battery bank to handle at least 20 W draw at peak load. The camera consumes as low as 3 W in standby and 0.3 W in sleep mode.
-
Mounting: Use a heavy-duty PTZ wall bracket or pole mount. Ensure the mount point can support ≥ 4 kg load.
-
Network: The unit requires a 12 V DC input and Ethernet link. If using 4G routers, set the router to forward ONVIF and HTTP(S) ports for remote access.
-
Wi-Fi Setup: The built-in Wi-Fi AP mode simplifies onsite configuration without a LAN connection (approx. 20 m range).
-
Firmware: Keep firmware current to maintain smart event accuracy and cybersecurity.
-
Cleaning & Maintenance: Clean the dome cover using non-abrasive cloth and avoid direct pressure on the lens area.
-
Cable Protection: Use UV-resistant conduit and waterproof glands to maintain the IP66 seal and prevent moisture ingress.
-
Testing: Confirm pan/tilt/zoom movement and IR coverage before final mounting to ensure unobstructed views.
