Product Overview
Covering 6 zones with active deterrence and full-colour night vision, this Hikvision 8MP Smart Hybrid Light CCTV kit pairs 6 x DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL ColorVu turret cameras with a DS-7608NI-M2-8P 8-channel PoE NVR and a pre-installed 4TB surveillance-grade hard drive. Each camera uses Smart Hybrid Light technology to operate in low-impact IR mode by default, then switch to white light illumination automatically when motion is detected, delivering colour evidence exactly when it counts. The F1.0 super aperture and ColorVu sensor achieve a minimum illumination of 0.0005 Lux, producing usable colour footage in near-total darkness. AcuSense classification filters out animals and environmental triggers, focusing alerts on humans and vehicles only. Built-in strobe lights and speakers provide real-time audio and visual warnings at the moment of detection. With PoE connectivity and plug-and-play NVR setup, this kit suits homes, retail premises, warehouses, and multi-zone outdoor perimeters needing both deterrence and detailed colour evidence.
Key Capabilities
Smart Hybrid Light Technology
Cameras default to discreet IR operation and automatically trigger white light only when motion is detected. This reduces light pollution during quiet periods while capturing full-colour evidence when an event actually occurs.
8MP ColorVu Full-Colour Imaging
The F1.0 super aperture and 1/2.8″ CMOS sensor produce 3840×2160 colour video at a minimum illumination of 0.0005 Lux. In complete darkness, white light fills in automatically, achieving 0 Lux capability without any colour loss.
Active Deterrence: Strobe and Speaker
Each of the 6 cameras includes a built-in strobe light and speaker. When motion triggers an alert, the camera issues an immediate audio and visual warning at the scene, which is suited to driveways, yard entries, and loading areas.
AcuSense Human and Vehicle Detection
AI-powered classification at the camera level distinguishes between people, vehicles, and irrelevant motion such as animals or foliage. This reduces nuisance alerts and ensures notifications relate to genuine security events.
8CH PoE NVR with 4TB Pre-Installed
The DS-7608NI-M2-8P recorder powers all 6 cameras over a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable per camera using PoE, removing the need for separate power supplies. The 4TB surveillance-grade HDD is pre-installed and ready to record on first power-up.
Two-Way Audio Communication
Each camera carries both a built-in microphone and a built-in speaker, enabling real-time two-way voice communication through the Hik-Connect mobile app or NVR interface. This allows direct verbal interaction with anyone in camera view.
Best For
- Larger Residential Properties: Covers up to 6 zones including front driveway, side gates, backyard, and shed entries with a single PoE system requiring no separate power runs.
- Retail Shopfronts and Carparks: AcuSense filters pedestrian and vehicle alerts accurately after hours, while the strobe and speaker deter loitering without requiring staff intervention.
- Warehouses and Industrial Yards: Full-colour 8MP imaging at up to 30m night vision range provides detail across wide loading bays, fence lines, and yard entries where standard IR cameras fall short on colour evidence.
- Sites Needing Light Pollution Control: Smart Hybrid Light keeps cameras in IR mode during quiet periods and only activates white light on detection events, which suits residential zones with neighbours nearby.
- Plug-and-Play System Installations: The PoE NVR, pre-installed 4TB HDD, and Hikvision ecosystem compatibility allow straightforward installation without complex network configuration or separate power cabling.
Why Choose the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL 6-Camera Kit
Standard 8MP kits record in colour only during daylight hours and rely on greyscale IR at night. This kit’s DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL cameras add Smart Hybrid Light, meaning colour footage is available around the clock without running white light constantly. The F1.0 aperture achieves 0.0005 Lux sensitivity, which is significantly lower than typical f/2.0 cameras, and the built-in strobe and speaker on all 6 cameras provide active deterrence that passive recording systems cannot match. The DS-7608NI-M2-8P NVR supports full 4K playback with H.265+ compression, keeping storage consumption lower across the 4TB HDD. Two-way audio is available on every camera out of the box, not as an optional add-on. Available at Security Wholesalers, this kit is well suited to buyers who want colour evidence, deterrence capability, and a complete ready-to-install system without sourcing components separately.

Buyer Decision Tips
Lens Selection – 2.8mm vs 4mm: The 2.8mm lens provides a 99-degree horizontal field of view, which suits open spaces such as backyards, driveways, and carparks where wide coverage across a broad area matters more than fine object detail. The 4mm lens narrows to 83 degrees horizontal, providing more defined detail at entrances, gates, or walkways where identifying faces or number plates at a specific approach point is the priority. If you need different lenses across the 6 cameras, note your preference in the comments at checkout. Mixed lens configurations are available on request.
Storage and Recording Duration: The 4TB pre-installed HDD supports continuous recording across all 6 cameras using H.265+ compression. Recording duration will vary depending on motion frequency, resolution, and frame rate settings. For sites with high foot or vehicle traffic that need longer retention periods without overwriting, consider configuring motion-based recording schedules on the DS-7608NI-M2-8P to extend usable storage before footage cycles. The NVR supports a second HDD bay if additional storage is needed later.

Ideal Use Cases
Residential Driveways and Front Yards
The Smart Hybrid Light mode keeps IR active at night without flooding the street with white light, then triggers the strobe and speaker the moment a human or vehicle is detected approaching the property.
Retail Premises and Shopfront Entries
8MP resolution at f/1.0 aperture captures clear after-hours colour footage at entrances and car bays. AcuSense filters out passing traffic and animals to ensure alert notifications relate only to human presence.
Warehouse Yards and Loading Dock Areas
Wide 2.8mm coverage across large open areas combined with a 30m night vision range and AcuSense vehicle detection makes this kit suited to monitoring truck movements and access points through the night shift.
Multi-Zone Perimeter Coverage
With 6 cameras and 2 spare NVR channels available, this kit can monitor side fences, rear gates, and entry points simultaneously, with centralised recording on the 4TB HDD and remote viewing via the Hik-Connect app.
School Grounds and Childcare Facilities
The combination of two-way audio on each camera and human detection alerts enables staff to communicate with or respond to individuals in monitored areas outside operating hours without physical intervention.
Construction Sites and Temporary Compounds
IP67-rated weatherproof housings on all 6 cameras withstand outdoor exposure during extended installation periods. Active deterrence via strobe and speaker addresses after-hours trespass without requiring a security guard presence.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this kit if: You need to cover 6 distinct zones with active deterrence cameras, want full-colour night footage triggered by motion rather than constant white light, and prefer a complete PoE system with 4TB storage ready to record out of the box.
- Choose a different camera count if: Your site requires fewer than 6 coverage points – a 4-camera kit with the same DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL cameras may suit smaller properties with less perimeter to cover, while an 8-camera kit is available if all 8 NVR channels need to be utilised from the start.
- Choose a different camera type if: Your site needs ANPR, thermal imaging, or long-range optical zoom coverage. The DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL is a fixed-lens turret camera and does not include motorised zoom, PTZ movement, or licence plate recognition functionality.
- Choose a larger NVR if: You anticipate expanding beyond 8 cameras in the near future. This kit uses an 8-channel NVR with 2 spare ports remaining. Sites planning to grow to 10 or more cameras would require a 16-channel recorder.

FAQs
- What is the difference between Smart Hybrid Light mode and always-on white light mode?
In Smart Hybrid Light mode, the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL cameras run in IR by default and switch to white light only when motion triggers an event. This means you get colour evidence when it matters, without flooding the area with visible light all night. Always-on white light mode keeps the light active continuously, which produces colour footage at all times but may cause light pollution and is more visible to anyone approaching the camera. - Can I choose different lens sizes for individual cameras in this 6-camera kit?
Yes. The DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL cameras are available in both 2.8mm and 4mm fixed lens options. If you want a mixed configuration across the 6 cameras, for example 4 x 2.8mm for open areas and 2 x 4mm for narrower entry points, simply leave a note specifying your lens preferences in the comments box at checkout. - Does the 8-channel NVR support expansion beyond 6 cameras?
Yes. The DS-7608NI-M2-8P has 8 PoE ports and supports up to 8 IP cameras in total. This kit connects 6 cameras, leaving 2 ports available for future expansion without any recorder upgrade required. Additional cameras added to those ports must be compatible Hikvision IP cameras supported by the M2 NVR. - How long will the 4TB HDD record before footage is overwritten?
Recording duration depends on the number of cameras active, resolution settings, frame rate, and whether continuous or motion-triggered recording is used. H.265+ compression significantly reduces file sizes compared to H.264. For a 6-camera setup at 8MP recording motion-triggered events rather than continuously, storage duration will be considerably longer than in continuous mode. Configuring the NVR to record on detection events is the most effective way to extend usable retention on the 4TB drive. - Is two-way audio available on every camera in this kit?
Yes. Each DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL camera includes both a built-in microphone and a built-in speaker, which means two-way audio communication is available on all 6 cameras. This is supported through the Hik-Connect mobile app and the NVR interface, allowing you to listen in and speak directly to anyone in the camera’s field of view in real time. - Are the cameras in this kit rated for outdoor use in Australian weather conditions?
Yes. All 6 DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL cameras carry an IP67 ingress protection rating, meaning they are protected against dust ingress and immersion in water up to 1 metre for 30 minutes. This rating is suited to direct outdoor installation in rain, humidity, and dust exposure typical of Australian residential and commercial environments. The cameras should be mounted with cabling directed downward where possible to prevent pooling at the housing entry point. This kit is part of the Security Wholesalers range and is supplied with a 3-year warranty. - What cabling is required to connect the cameras to the NVR?
Each camera connects to the DS-7608NI-M2-8P via a single Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable carrying both data and power over PoE. No separate power cabling is required at the camera end. The kit includes 6 weatherproof RJ45 connectors for securing outdoor cable runs. Maximum recommended PoE cable run is 100 metres per camera. For longer runs, a PoE extender would be required and is not included in this kit.
Cabling Considerations
- Cable Type: Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable recommended for all camera runs.
- Maximum Cable Run: Up to 100 metres per camera from the NVR PoE port.
- PoE Considerations: The DS-7608NI-M2-8P provides PoE power to all connected cameras from its built-in PoE ports. No separate power injectors or adaptors are required at each camera position.
- Wiring Tips: Run Cat5e or Cat6 cable inside conduit for outdoor wall and eave runs to protect against UV degradation and physical damage. Use the included weatherproof RJ45 connectors at all external junction points to prevent moisture ingress at terminations. Route cables so they exit the wall or eave directly below the camera housing to avoid water tracking down the cable into the connector.
