Product SKU: DS-2XC6244G0-L
Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-2XC6244G0-L 4MP Anti-Corrosion Bullet Camera is a specialised underwater network camera built from SUS316L stainless steel for corrosive, marine and submerged environments. Its 1/1.8-inch progressive scan CMOS sensor captures up to 2688 × 1520 resolution, while DarkFighter technology, an F1.0 aperture and 120dB true WDR support clear imaging in low light and strong backlighting. The 3–9mm varifocal lens allows the field of view to be adjusted for wide-area monitoring or more focused coverage. IP68 protection allows operation underwater at depths up to 15m, while 10m white-light illumination, smart events, MicroSD storage, PoE+ and an included 15m cable support demanding industrial and marine surveillance projects.

Why Choose the DS-2XC6244G0-L
Choose the Hikvision DS-2XC6244G0-L when a project requires continuous video surveillance in a submerged, coastal or highly corrosive environment. Its SUS316L stainless-steel enclosure and IP68 construction provide significantly greater protection than a conventional outdoor bullet camera, while the adjustable 3–9mm lens allows the scene to be framed for the required monitoring distance. DarkFighter imaging, 120dB WDR and integrated white light support difficult lighting conditions above or below water. Security Wholesalers supplies this specialist camera for professionally engineered marine, industrial and underwater surveillance systems.
Buyer Decision Tips
Product Clarification: The official specification identifies this model as a 4MP underwater anti-corrosion camera with DarkFighter technology, a 3–9mm varifocal lens and 10m white light. It is not specified with a 60m white-light range.
Installation Tip: Confirm the required immersion depth, water pressure, cable route, sealing method and mounting structure before ordering. The complete installation must preserve the camera’s IP68 integrity.
Power Note: The camera requires 36V DC or compatible PoE+ power. Check the selected switch or injector and account for the included 15m cable run.

FAQs
- Can the DS-2XC6244G0-L be installed underwater?
Yes. The camera carries an IP68 rating and is specified for underwater use at depths up to 15m. The installation must use the approved cable, mounting and sealing methods required to maintain that protection. - Is the camera made from stainless steel?
Yes. Its enclosure is manufactured from SUS316L stainless steel and includes an anti-corrosion coating, making it better suited to saltwater, coastal and chemically aggressive environments than a standard camera housing. - Does this camera use ColorVu technology?
The official specification identifies DarkFighter low-light technology and an F1.0 aperture. It does not specifically identify this model as a ColorVu camera. - How far does the white light reach?
The integrated white-light range is specified at up to 10m. The usable distance may vary according to water clarity, suspended material, reflections, the selected focal length and ambient lighting. - What lens does the DS-2XC6244G0-L use?
The camera uses an adjustable 3–9mm varifocal lens. It provides an 87° horizontal view at the wide setting and narrows to 45.8° at the telephoto setting. - Can it record directly to a memory card?
Yes. The camera supports compatible MicroSD, MicroSDHC and MicroSDXC cards up to 128GB. The card may need to be installed during product preparation because of the sealed specialist housing. - Does it support intelligent events?
Yes. Supported events include line crossing, intrusion, region entrance and exit, scene change, unattended baggage and object removal detection. The specification does not list AcuSense human and vehicle classification. - What should I check before purchasing this camera?
Confirm the immersion depth, water conditions, target distance, cable route, power method, mounting design and corrosion exposure. Security Wholesalers can supply this model for professionally engineered marine and underwater surveillance projects.
