The DS-2CD6425G1-10-2M is a discreet, high-performance 2 MP covert network camera designed for environments where unobtrusive monitoring is essential. Featuring a separate cylindrical sensor head with a 2 metre cable, the camera allows the sensor to be installed discreetly while the main body is concealed nearby. Delivering Full HD 1080p resolution in real-time, the camera’s 3.7 mm fixed lens provides a balanced horizontal field of view of approximately 75.5°, making it well-suited to small rooms, reception areas, offices and other indoor applications. With H.265+ compression, True 120 dB WDR and professional imaging performance, this model is ideal for covert surveillance where discretion and clarity are both critical.
Why Choose the DS-2CD6425G1-10-2M
The DS-2CD6425G1-10-2M offers advantages rarely found in conventional cameras due to its versatile two-part architecture. The discreet cylindrical sensor can be mounted through thin surfaces, panels or ceilings while the main processing unit remains hidden, allowing for highly effective covert placements. The 3.7 mm fixed pinhole lens provides a natural field of view that balances coverage with detailed subject capture, particularly useful for doorways, desks and entrances. With True WDR for challenging lighting, efficient H.265+ recording performance and reliable low-light optimisation, the camera provides consistent results in professional installations where subtlety, reliability and image quality must all be maintained.

Key Capabilities
Discreet Two-Part Installation
The camera’s separate cylindrical sensor allows the lens to be installed discreetly while the main body remains concealed. This enables highly flexible placement options in ceilings, wall cavities, panels or retail fixtures, making it suitable for environments where low-visibility monitoring is essential.
Full HD 1080p Real-Time Imaging
The 2 MP sensor produces clear, detailed 1920 × 1080 video at full frame rate, ensuring accurate recording and excellent usability for live monitoring. Its clarity makes it ideal for capturing facial features and interactions in small to medium environments.
3.7 mm Fixed Pinhole Lens
The 3.7 mm fixed lens delivers a balanced field of view of approximately 75.5° horizontally, ideal for general indoor monitoring without excessive distortion. This makes it suitable for offices, reception areas, rooms and access points requiring subtle surveillance with reliable subject clarity.
120 dB True WDR & 3D-DNR
True Wide Dynamic Range ensures excellent performance in areas with uneven or back-lit conditions, such as entry doors or windowed rooms. 3D Digital Noise Reduction maintains image clarity even in lower light environments, improving visibility and reliability throughout the day.
H.265+ Compression & Local Storage
Efficient H.265+ compression minimises bandwidth use and significantly reduces storage requirements without compromising image quality. The built-in Micro-SD slot supports cards up to 256 GB, enabling stand-alone recording or redundancy in multi-camera installations.
Key Features
Discreet Cylindrical Sensor: The compact sensor head can be installed through minimal openings, allowing near-invisible placement. Combined with the concealed main body, this ensures the camera remains unobtrusive in retail, office and reception environments.
3.7 mm Pinhole Fixed Lens: Provides a natural field of view suited for small-to-medium indoor locations where capturing clear subject detail is essential. Its pinhole design allows the lens to remain hidden while still delivering high-quality video.
2 MP 1080p Real-Time Output: Captures Full HD resolution at full frame rate, ensuring smooth, clear video suitable for security review, visitor management and incident verification.
120 dB True Wide Dynamic Range: Ensures balanced imaging performance in rooms with bright windows, backlighting or mixed illumination, enabling clearer identification and consistent image quality.
Local Micro-SD Recording: Supports up to 256 GB of on-board storage, allowing local recording redundancy or operation independent of a recorder when needed.
PoE Support: Power over Ethernet simplifies installation by combining power and network connectivity into a single cable, reducing wiring complexity and improving installation flexibility.
