Product Overview
Combining Hikvision’s Smart Hybrid Light technology with active deterrence capabilities, this 8-camera kit pairs 8 x DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL turret cameras with the DS-7608NI-M2-8P 8-channel PoE NVR to deliver a complete 8MP CCTV system suited to homes, driveways, shopfronts, and outdoor perimeters. Each turret camera features an F1.0 super aperture lens with Smart Hybrid ColorVu technology, defaulting to infrared at night and switching to full-colour white light only when a person or vehicle is detected. This targeted approach captures important events in colour while reducing unnecessary light exposure. Built with AcuSense human and vehicle classification, a built-in microphone, strobe light, and speaker, the cameras respond actively to intrusions in real time. With IP67 weatherproofing, H.265+ compression, 8 integrated PoE ports, and a pre-installed 4TB HDD, the entire system is designed for straightforward installation and immediate local recording.
Key Capabilities
Smart Hybrid Light with ColorVu
The F1.0 super aperture and Super Confocal lens produce full-colour images in ultra-low light. In Smart mode, the camera uses IR by default and triggers white light only when a person or vehicle is detected, so colour footage is captured for the events that matter most.
Active Deterrence: Strobe, Speaker and Mic
Each DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL camera includes a built-in strobe light, speaker, and microphone. When a person or vehicle is detected, the camera can trigger a visible flash and audio warning, allowing real-time two-way communication and on-site deterrence without relying on a separate device.
AcuSense Human and Vehicle Detection
AcuSense classification filters out animals, foliage, and environmental movement to focus alerts on people and vehicles only. This reduces unwanted notifications across all 8 camera channels, making the system practical for properties with outdoor activity around the monitoring area.
8CH PoE NVR with 4TB HDD
The DS-7608NI-M2-8P provides 8 PoE ports that power and connect all cameras over a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable run per camera. The included 4TB HDD supports local recording from all 8 cameras simultaneously, and the NVR supports H.265+ compression to extend storage duration.
8MP 4K Resolution with IP67 Weatherproofing
Each camera records at 8MP for detailed footage across driveways, entry points, and large outdoor areas. The IP67 rating makes the cameras suitable for direct exposure to rain and dust in Australian outdoor conditions, whether mounted on eaves, soffits, or exterior walls.
Flexible Lens Options and DORI Coverage
Available in 2.8mm and 4mm lens options. The 4mm lens delivers a detection range of 109m, with recognition at 21m and identification at 10m. The 2.8mm provides a wider field of view with detection to 89m. Buyers can specify per-camera lens requirements at checkout.
Best For
- Full-property residential coverage: 8 cameras fill all entry points, driveways, side access, and outdoor areas of a large home with 8MP colour recording and active deterrence at each position.
- Small to medium commercial premises: Shopfronts, warehouses, car parks, and yards benefit from AcuSense filtering and strobe deterrence without requiring separate alarm hardware at each camera location.
- Sites needing night-time colour evidence: The Smart Hybrid Light mode captures full-colour video of detected people and vehicles at night, producing footage that is significantly more useful for identification than standard IR images.
- Installers wanting a plug-and-play PoE system: The 8 built-in PoE ports on the DS-7608NI-M2-8P mean no separate PoE switch is needed, simplifying rack space and reducing cabling complexity on a single-storey or multi-zone install.
- Buyers who want deterrence built in: Properties where visible response to intrusion is a priority gain strobe and speaker warning from every camera position, rather than relying only on passive recording.
Why Choose the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL + DS-7608NI-M2-8P Kit
This kit stands apart from standard 8MP packages because every camera includes active deterrence hardware built in: a strobe light, a speaker, and a microphone are integrated into the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL turret body itself, not added as accessories. Combined with the F1.0 Super Aperture and Smart Hybrid Light logic, each camera selectively activates white light and AcuSense classification to deliver colour-accurate footage of the specific people and vehicles that trigger an event. A basic 8MP turret kit without these features records in IR only at night and offers no on-site response. The DS-7608NI-M2-8P NVR contributes 8 native PoE ports and dual HDD bays for storage expansion. The pre-installed 4TB HDD and H.265+ compression mean the system is recording-ready on first boot. Available through Security Wholesalers, this kit suits buyers who want an intelligent, active system rather than passive recording alone.

Buyer Decision Tips
Lens selection at checkout: The DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL is available in 2.8mm and 4mm. The 2.8mm suits wider coverage of driveways, carports, and side access areas. The 4mm is better suited to longer approaches, alleyways, and street-facing positions where identification distance matters. You can specify a different lens per camera position in the order comments at checkout and the correct cameras will be shipped accordingly.
Storage planning for 8 cameras: The included 4TB HDD supports continuous recording across all 8 channels with H.265+ compression. Actual retention time depends on motion activity, frame rate settings, and resolution. If you require extended retention beyond approximately 2 to 4 weeks at full quality, the DS-7608NI-M2-8P has dual HDD bays, allowing a second drive to be added after installation without any changes to the system configuration.

Ideal Use Cases
Large Residential Properties
8 camera positions cover front entry, driveway, rear yard, side gates, and garage simultaneously. AcuSense filtering reduces false alerts from pets or wind while IP67 protection handles Australian weather year-round.
Retail and Shopfront Monitoring
The strobe and speaker on each DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL camera give shopfront positions an active deterrent response after hours. Full-colour night footage from the F1.0 aperture supports incident review and evidence quality.
Warehouse and Yard Perimeters
The 4mm lens provides a detection range of 109m, making it practical for covering longer outdoor approaches at industrial sites. Smart Hybrid Light triggers colour recording on detection, supporting after-hours perimeter monitoring.
Car Parks and Common Areas
AcuSense vehicle detection ensures the system responds specifically to cars entering or moving through a car park, rather than triggering on every movement. Colour imaging at night makes number plate reading and vehicle identification more practical.
Construction Sites and Temporary Installations
The 8 PoE ports on the DS-7608NI-M2-8P simplify deployment: a single Cat6 cable to each camera location carries both power and data. The active strobe and speaker response is particularly useful on unmanned sites where a deterrent is needed outside staffed hours.
Multi-Entry Commercial Buildings
An 8-channel system with full PoE integration suits office buildings, medical centres, and service premises that need coverage across multiple entry and exit points from a single centralised NVR with local 4TB storage and mobile access.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this kit if: You need 8 camera positions covered by a single PoE NVR, and you want active deterrence at every camera location via built-in strobe, speaker, and microphone, along with Smart Hybrid Light colour night imaging and AcuSense human and vehicle detection on all channels.
- Choose a different model if: You need fewer than 8 camera positions and want to avoid paying for unused channels. Kits with 4 or 6 cameras using the same DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL cameras are available for smaller properties. If long-range IR beyond 40m is a priority, a bullet-style camera with extended IR reach may be more appropriate for specific positions.
- Choose a different model if: Your site requires more than 8 cameras now or in the near future. This kit fills all 8 PoE channels on the DS-7608NI-M2-8P. Expanding beyond 8 cameras requires a separate PoE switch or a larger NVR with more channel capacity.
FAQs
- How does the Smart Hybrid Light mode work on the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL cameras?
In Smart mode, each camera uses infrared illumination by default at night. When AcuSense detects a person or vehicle, the camera automatically switches to its white light LEDs to capture full-colour footage of that event. Once the subject leaves the frame, the camera returns to IR-only operation. This means colour footage is recorded selectively, keeping light intrusion minimal while still capturing events in colour. - Does this kit support two-way audio at each camera?
Yes. Each DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL camera has both a built-in microphone and a built-in speaker, enabling two-way voice communication via the NVR or mobile app. This means you can speak through the camera directly to someone in its field of view, and hear audio captured at that location, without any additional audio hardware. - Can I mix lens sizes across the 8 cameras in this kit?
Yes. The DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL is available in 2.8mm and 4mm. If you need different lenses for different positions, such as a wider 2.8mm for a driveway entry and a 4mm for a longer approach, simply specify the combination in the order comments at checkout and the correct cameras will be supplied. - How long will the 4TB HDD store footage from all 8 cameras?
Storage duration depends on recording mode, frame rate, and how much motion activity occurs. With H.265+ compression and motion-triggered recording across 8 x 8MP cameras, the 4TB drive typically supports several weeks of retention. Continuous 24/7 recording at maximum resolution will use storage faster. The DS-7608NI-M2-8P has a second HDD bay for adding a second drive if more storage capacity is needed. - Do I need a separate PoE switch to connect the cameras?
No. The DS-7608NI-M2-8P includes 8 built-in PoE ports, one for each camera in this kit. Each camera connects directly to the NVR using a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable that carries both power and video data. No separate PoE switch or power injector is required, which simplifies installation and reduces equipment cost. - Can I view the cameras remotely on a phone or tablet?
Yes. The DS-7608NI-M2-8P supports mobile viewing via the Hik-Connect app. Once the NVR is connected to the internet, you can view live feeds, review recorded footage, and receive push notifications from all 8 cameras on a smartphone or tablet. AcuSense detection events can be used to trigger smart alerts so notifications are filtered to people and vehicles only. - Is this kit available with technical support included?
Yes. This kit is part of the Security Wholesalers range and is supplied with a 3-year warranty and local support. If you have pre-purchase questions about installation requirements, lens selection for your site, or storage planning for your recording needs, the team can assist before you order.
ColorVu and Smart Hybrid Light
The DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL uses an F1.0 super aperture lens and Super Confocal design to produce full-colour video in extremely low-light conditions. In Smart mode, the camera defaults to infrared at night to avoid unnecessary light pollution, and activates white light only when AcuSense detects a person or vehicle. This delivers colour footage precisely when it is most useful for identification and review.
- ColorVu: Full-colour video output in ultra-low ambient light using the F1.0 aperture and white light LEDs.
- Super Confocal Lens: Precision-focused at the micron level to maintain consistent sharpness when the camera switches between IR and white light modes.
- Smart Lighting Modes: Choose from full-time colour, IR only, or Smart mode. Smart mode is the default and activates white light only on human or vehicle detection.
Smart Light Visual Guide
Before Detection
When no person or vehicle is present, the camera operates on infrared illumination only, keeping the scene dark to the naked eye and avoiding unnecessary light output.
During Detection
When AcuSense identifies a person or vehicle, the white light LEDs activate automatically and the camera captures full-colour video of the event.
After Detection
Once the detected subject leaves the frame, the camera returns to infrared-only mode until the next detection event occurs.
