Product Overview
Covering multiple zones across a warehouse, shopfront, or larger property with a single coherent system, this Hikvision 10 Camera 8MP ColorVu 3.0 Kit pairs the DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL Smart Hybrid Light turret camera with the DS-7616NI-M2/16P 16-channel PoE 8K NVR. Each of the 10 turret cameras captures 8MP 4K video with ColorVu 3.0 full-colour night imaging, Smart Hybrid Light adaptive illumination, person and vehicle classification, and built-in dual microphones. It also integrates a built-in strobe and speaker for active deterrence, triggering visible and audible warnings when configured with smart detection events. The included NVR provides 16 PoE ports, up to 256Mbps incoming bandwidth, 8K HDMI output, and capacity for 6 additional compatible IP cameras beyond the supplied 10. No hard drive is included, so a compatible surveillance-grade HDD must be sourced separately before footage can be retained.
Key Capabilities
8MP 4K Resolution Across 10 Cameras
Ten DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL cameras each deliver 8MP 4K video, providing usable image detail across entrances, driveways, loading zones, shopfronts, and perimeter areas where identifying people, vehicles, and events matters.
ColorVu 3.0 Full-Colour Night Imaging
ColorVu 3.0 delivers vivid colour footage around the clock, making it easier to distinguish clothing colours, vehicle colours, and scene context in low-light conditions where standard IR cameras produce only black and white imagery.
Smart Hybrid Light Illumination
Smart Hybrid Light combines IR and white light modes within each camera. The system can operate with discreet IR illumination for standard monitoring or switch to white light when colour detail or active deterrence is required, adapting to the scene automatically.
Active Strobe, Speaker, and Dual Microphones
Each camera includes a built-in strobe, speaker, and arrayed dual microphones. When configured with smart events, the strobe and speaker trigger visible and audible warnings at driveways, gates, yards, and perimeter access points to discourage intrusion.
Person and Vehicle Classification
Deep learning-based classification allows each camera to filter events by person or vehicle type, reducing alert fatigue caused by irrelevant motion such as trees, animals, or shadows, and improving the accuracy of triggered recordings and warnings.
16CH PoE 8K NVR with Expansion Capacity
The DS-7616NI-M2/16P NVR includes 16 PoE ports, up to 256Mbps incoming bandwidth, and 8K HDMI output. With 10 cameras supplied, 6 ports remain available for future expansion, giving the system flexibility as site requirements grow.
Best For
- Multi-Zone Colour Surveillance: Sites needing 10 camera positions covered with 4K full-colour night imaging, where identifying vehicle and clothing colours after dark is a priority.
- Active Deterrence Deployment: Warehouses, yards, driveways, and perimeter zones where the built-in strobe and speaker can be configured to warn intruders before a response is needed.
- Larger Properties Needing Expansion Room: Sites that currently need 10 cameras but may add more coverage later, using the remaining 6 available PoE NVR channels for future IP cameras.
- Intelligent Event Filtering: Commercial and retail environments where person and vehicle classification reduces unnecessary alerts from irrelevant motion across busy outdoor areas.
- Audio-Capable Surveillance Points: Entry doors, reception areas, gates, and staff access points where the built-in dual microphones and two-way audio support real-time communication and audio recording alongside video.
Why Choose the Hikvision DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL and DS-7616NI-M2/16P Kit
This kit goes beyond basic 4K recording by combining ColorVu 3.0 full-colour night imaging with Smart Hybrid Light, person and vehicle classification, and built-in active deterrence across all 10 cameras. A standard 4K IR turret system would record in black and white after dark and provide no built-in warning capability. The DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL adds a strobe, speaker, and dual microphones to each camera position, making deterrence and audio capture possible at every monitored zone without additional accessories. The DS-7616NI-M2/16P NVR supports up to 32MP camera inputs, 256Mbps bandwidth, and 8K HDMI output, providing headroom for high-resolution recording and display well beyond the supplied 10 cameras. HikAI-ISP noise reduction further improves image clarity in low-light scenes. Available at Security Wholesalers, this kit suits larger residential, retail, commercial, and industrial sites where colour night vision, intelligent detection, and active deterrence across multiple areas are all required simultaneously.

Buyer Decision Tips
Hard Drive Selection: This kit ships with no HDD installed. The DS-7616NI-M2/16P supports multiple internal hard drives. Calculate your required retention period based on the number of cameras, recording resolution, frame rate, and motion-based or continuous recording mode before selecting drive capacity. Surveillance-grade HDDs are recommended over desktop drives for 24/7 write cycles.
Audio Recording Compliance: Each DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL camera includes built-in dual microphones and two-way audio capability. Audio recording laws in Australia vary by state and context. Before enabling audio recording or two-way communication at any camera position, confirm your obligations under the relevant surveillance and listening device legislation for your location and application.

Ideal Use Cases
Warehouse and Industrial Sites
Loading docks, roller doors, storage yards, and dispatch zones benefit from 8MP colour coverage and active strobe and speaker deterrence. Smart Hybrid Light supports clear night imaging across large open areas without requiring separate lighting infrastructure.
Retail Stores and Shopfronts
Shopfront entries, aisles, cash-handling areas, and stock rooms benefit from ColorVu 3.0 colour detail and person classification. Audio recording at point-of-sale or entry positions adds useful context alongside video footage.
Larger Residential Properties
Driveways, garages, side gates, backyards, and perimeter fences across larger homes can be covered across all 10 camera positions. The 16CH NVR leaves room to add further cameras if additional areas require monitoring later.
Schools and Office Campuses
External walkways, car parks, staff entry points, and reception zones can be monitored with person and vehicle classification, reducing unnecessary alerts during busy periods while keeping after-hours perimeter coverage active with deterrence capability.
Commercial Perimeter and Gate Monitoring
Fences, gates, entry barriers, and building perimeters where after-hours intrusion is a concern benefit from the strobe and speaker active warning functions, which can be configured to trigger on confirmed person detection events.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this kit if: Your site requires 10 camera positions with 4K full-colour night imaging, built-in active deterrence at each camera, smart person and vehicle classification, and a 16-channel PoE NVR with room to expand to up to 16 cameras total.
- Choose a different model if: Your site only requires 4 or 8 cameras and a smaller channel NVR would suit the application, which may reduce cost and infrastructure complexity. Similarly, if audio recording is not required or not compliant for your location, a kit without built-in microphones may be more appropriate.
- Choose a different model if: Long-range directional coverage is the priority rather than full-colour wide-angle monitoring. A bullet camera kit with extended IR range would be better suited to long fence lines, open yards, or approach roads requiring distance reach beyond what a fixed turret lens provides.
FAQs
- What is included in this kit?
This kit includes 10 x Hikvision DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL 8MP ColorVu 3.0 Smart Hybrid Light turret cameras with built-in strobe, speaker, and dual microphones, plus 1 x Hikvision DS-7616NI-M2/16P 16-channel PoE 8K NVR. No hard drive is included and must be purchased separately before footage can be stored.
- Does the NVR support more than 10 cameras?
Yes. The DS-7616NI-M2/16P has 16 PoE ports and supports up to 16 IP camera channels. Since this kit supplies 10 cameras, 6 PoE ports remain available for future compatible IP cameras, making this a practical choice for sites that anticipate expanding camera coverage later.
- Why is no hard drive included?
This kit is supplied without a HDD to allow buyers to select a storage capacity that suits their specific retention requirements. The DS-7616NI-M2/16P supports multiple internal HDDs. A surveillance-grade HDD must be installed before the NVR can retain recorded footage. Capacity requirements depend on camera count, recording resolution, frame rate, and how many days of footage need to be retained.
- What does ColorVu 3.0 provide compared to standard IR night vision?
Standard IR night vision produces black and white imagery after dark, which limits the usefulness of recorded footage for identifying people, clothing, or vehicle colours. ColorVu 3.0 uses a combination of sensor design and supplemental white light to produce vivid colour footage around the clock, preserving scene detail that IR-only cameras cannot capture in the same conditions.
- How does the active deterrence function work on these cameras?
Each DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL camera includes a built-in strobe light and audio alarm speaker. When configured with smart detection events such as person or vehicle classification triggers, the camera can automatically activate the strobe and speaker to warn anyone approaching a monitored area. This can be configured through the NVR or camera settings and is particularly useful at driveways, gates, loading areas, and yard perimeters.
- What is Smart Hybrid Light and how does it differ from standard IR?
Smart Hybrid Light combines both infrared and white light illuminators within the same camera housing. Unlike cameras with IR only, Smart Hybrid Light allows the system to switch between discreet IR illumination for standard night monitoring and visible white light when colour detail or active deterrence is required. The illumination mode can be set manually or configured to respond to detected events.
- Can audio be recorded alongside video footage?
Yes. Each camera includes built-in arrayed dual microphones, and two-way audio is supported. Audio can be recorded alongside video through the NVR. Audio recording laws vary by state and application in Australia. Before enabling audio recording at any camera position, confirm your obligations under the relevant surveillance device legislation for your location. Security Wholesalers recommends reviewing local requirements before deployment.
- What is the maximum output resolution of the included NVR?
The DS-7616NI-M2/16P supports HDMI output up to 8K resolution. It also handles incoming and outgoing bandwidth of up to 256Mbps and supports camera inputs up to 32MP per channel, giving the recorder significant headroom for high-resolution multi-camera recording beyond the supplied 10 x 8MP cameras.
