Product Overview
For large-scale perimeter monitoring across multiple zones, the DS-2CD2T66G2H-2I Black Bullet 10 Camera Kit pairs 10 x 6MP AcuSense bullet cameras with a DS-7616NI-M2/16P 16-channel PoE 8K NVR in a single deployable package. Each black bullet camera delivers 6MP resolution, Powered-by-DarkFighter low-light performance, 120dB WDR, and up to 60m IR night vision, making the system suited to driveways, loading docks, fence lines, car parks, yards, and building perimeters where longer-range night coverage is needed. AcuSense deep learning classifies humans and vehicles to reduce nuisance alerts from environmental movement. The included 16-channel NVR provides PoE power to all 10 cameras through a single network switch, supports up to 256Mbps incoming bandwidth, and outputs at up to 8K resolution. With 6 spare channels available, the system supports future expansion without replacing the recorder. No HDD is included, so a surveillance-grade hard drive must be added separately before recording can be retained.
Key Capabilities
10-Camera Perimeter Coverage
Ten 6MP bullet cameras provide enough coverage to monitor multiple exterior zones simultaneously, including entrances, side gates, loading areas, driveways, and fence lines, across a single commercial or residential property without requiring separate systems.
AcuSense Human and Vehicle Classification
Deep learning-based AcuSense technology distinguishes humans and vehicles from other movement sources such as animals, foliage, or shadows. This keeps event notifications focused on relevant activity, which is especially useful for after-hours perimeter and access point monitoring.
Powered-by-DarkFighter Low-Light Performance
Hikvision Powered-by-DarkFighter technology improves image quality in scenes with minimal ambient light, making the cameras more effective around dimly lit yards, car parks, loading docks, and building edges where consistent lighting cannot be guaranteed.
60m IR Night Vision Range
Each DS-2CD2T66G2H-2I bullet camera provides up to 60m of infrared illumination at night, covering longer outdoor approaches such as driveways, laneways, perimeter lines, and loading bays where shorter-range cameras would leave gaps after dark.
16-Channel PoE NVR with Expansion Capacity
The DS-7616NI-M2/16P NVR includes 16 PoE ports and supports up to 16 IP cameras, leaving 6 spare channels to add further compatible cameras as a site grows. Up to 256Mbps incoming bandwidth and 8K HDMI output support high-resolution multi-camera recording.
Visible Black Bullet Housing
The black bullet-style housing provides a clear visual security presence on exterior walls, fascias, and fence posts. The directional form factor also makes it straightforward to aim cameras precisely at specific outdoor approaches, entry points, or vehicle paths.
Best For
- Commercial and Industrial Perimeters: The 60m IR range and black bullet housing make these cameras suited to monitoring fence lines, loading docks, yard entries, and building edges where distance coverage and a visible deterrent both matter.
- Large Residential Properties: Ten cameras provide enough positions to cover a main driveway, secondary gates, side yards, garages, and outbuildings across a larger block without splitting across two separate NVRs.
- Warehouses and Storage Facilities: AcuSense human and vehicle detection helps focus alerts on staff access and vehicle movements, reducing noise from forklifts, conveyor motion, or environmental triggers in busy operational environments.
- Schools and Institutional Sites: The 16-channel NVR allows the system to be expanded with additional cameras later, making it a practical foundation for campus-wide surveillance that may grow over time.
- Car Parks and Retail Precincts: 6MP resolution provides enough image detail to capture usable footage of vehicles and pedestrians across open outdoor areas, entry ramps, and after-hours access points.
Why Choose the DS-2CD2T66G2H-2I Black Bullet 10 Camera Kit
This kit addresses the specific requirements of larger multi-zone installations where a single-camera or four-camera system would not provide adequate coverage. The DS-2CD2T66G2H-2I cameras combine 6MP resolution, Powered-by-DarkFighter, 120dB WDR, and 60m IR into a bullet-style housing that is both directional and visually assertive on exterior walls. AcuSense analytics apply at the camera level, meaning human and vehicle classifications are embedded in the event metadata before reaching the NVR, which makes playback searches more targeted. The DS-7616NI-M2/16P NVR supports up to 256Mbps incoming bandwidth, meaning all 10 streams are handled with headroom remaining for additional cameras. A basic bullet camera kit without AcuSense or DarkFighter would not match this system’s combination of smart detection and low-light performance across a 10-camera deployment. Available through Security Wholesalers, this kit suits professional installers and end users building a structured multi-zone CCTV system with room to grow.

Buyer Decision Tips
Storage Planning Before Installation: This kit ships with no hard drive. The right HDD capacity depends on the number of active cameras, recording resolution, frame rate, and how many days of footage you need to retain. For 10 x 6MP cameras recording continuously at H.265+, a 6TB or 8TB surveillance-grade drive is a common starting point. Calculate your expected storage needs before ordering a drive, and ensure the selected HDD is on Hikvision’s compatibility list for the DS-7616NI-M2/16P.
PoE Budget and Cable Run Planning: The DS-7616NI-M2/16P provides PoE power to all connected cameras through its 16 built-in ports, but the total PoE power budget must be considered across all active cameras. Confirm the maximum cable run distance for your installation, as PoE over Cat5e or Cat6 is typically limited to 100m per run. For longer distances, a PoE extender or intermediate switch may be required. Plan cable routes before installation to avoid rework.

Ideal Use Cases
Industrial Yards and Loading Docks
The 60m IR range and black bullet housing allow cameras to cover long outdoor approaches to loading bays, roller doors, and vehicle entry points after dark, while AcuSense focuses alerts on vehicle and personnel movements rather than general environmental triggers.
Large Residential Driveways and Gates
Ten cameras are sufficient to cover a main gate, secondary entry, garage approach, side yards, and outbuildings across a larger property. The 6MP resolution provides enough detail for facial and number plate identification at closer ranges during the day.
Warehouses and Distribution Centres
Powered-by-DarkFighter performance supports usable footage in large interior spaces with inconsistent lighting, while IP67-rated housings allow cameras to be mounted on external walls, under canopies, and near roller doors exposed to dust and weather.
Schools and Campus Perimeters
The 16-channel NVR supports expansion beyond the 10 included cameras, allowing a school to start with coverage of main entries, car parks, and after-hours perimeter points and add further cameras to additional zones as budget allows.
Commercial Car Parks and Retail Precincts
Bullet cameras mounted on columns, walls, or elevated brackets can direct coverage precisely across parking bays, access ramps, and pedestrian entries. AcuSense vehicle classification supports smarter event logging for after-hours intrusion monitoring in open car park environments.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this kit if: You need to cover 8 to 10 camera positions across a larger property or commercial site, require 60m IR night coverage on outdoor approaches, want AcuSense smart detection with Powered-by-DarkFighter performance, and prefer a black bullet housing for visible exterior presence with room to expand the system later.
- Choose a different configuration if: Your site has fewer than 6 camera positions and a smaller kit would be more cost-effective, if you require active deterrence with a built-in siren or strobe light (this model does not include those features), or if your installation environment requires a discreet ceiling-mounted dome rather than a wall-mounted directional bullet.
FAQs
- What is included in this Hikvision 10 Camera 6MP AcuSense Bullet Kit?
The kit includes 10 x Hikvision DS-2CD2T66G2H-2I Black 6MP AcuSense bullet cameras and 1 x Hikvision DS-7616NI-M2/16P 16-channel PoE 8K NVR. No hard drive is included. The NVR has 16 channels and 16 PoE ports, so all 10 cameras connect directly to the recorder and 6 spare channels remain for future expansion.
- Does this kit come with a hard drive installed?
No. This kit is supplied with NO HDD INCLUDED. A compatible surveillance-grade hard drive must be purchased separately and installed in the DS-7616NI-M2/16P before the system can retain recorded footage. The NVR supports multiple HDD bays, so capacity can be scaled to suit your retention requirements.
- How far can the cameras see at night using infrared?
Each DS-2CD2T66G2H-2I bullet camera provides up to 60m of IR night vision. Actual performance in the field depends on camera mounting height, the reflectivity of the scene, lens angle, and ambient conditions. For best results, position cameras to cover the full length of driveways, laneways, or perimeter paths within that 60m range.
- What does AcuSense do in this system and how does it help?
AcuSense applies deep learning directly at the camera level to classify detected motion as either a human or a vehicle. Events that do not match either classification, such as animals, blowing leaves, or rain, are filtered out before triggering an alert. This makes the notification stream more meaningful for sites that need to distinguish between genuine intrusions and routine environmental movement.
- Can I add more cameras to this system later?
Yes. The DS-7616NI-M2/16P NVR has 16 channels and 16 PoE ports. Since this kit uses 10 cameras, there are 6 spare channels available. Additional compatible Hikvision IP cameras can be added to those spare ports without replacing the recorder, provided the total PoE power budget and bandwidth capacity are not exceeded.
- Are the cameras in this kit suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes. Each DS-2CD2T66G2H-2I camera carries an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance, making the cameras suitable for outdoor mounting on exterior walls, fascias, eaves, and fence posts when installed correctly. IP67 means the housing is protected against dust ingress and temporary water immersion, which covers typical Australian outdoor weather conditions.
- What does Powered-by-DarkFighter mean for this kit?
Powered-by-DarkFighter is Hikvision’s low-light sensor technology that improves image quality in scenes with minimal ambient lighting. For this kit, it means the cameras produce more usable footage around dimly lit driveways, yards, loading areas, and building edges where standard sensors would produce noisier or less detailed images. It works in combination with the 60m IR illumination rather than replacing it.
- Where can I find more technical information about this kit?
Datasheets for both the DS-2CD2T66G2H-2I camera and the DS-7616NI-M2/16P NVR are linked in the Additional Information section below. This kit is part of the Security Wholesalers range, and the product listings for each individual component contain further specification detail if you need to verify compatibility before purchasing.
Cabling Considerations
- Cable Type: Cat5e or Cat6 cable is recommended for all camera-to-NVR runs. Cat6 is preferred for longer runs or in environments with electrical interference, as it offers better signal integrity across the full PoE distance.
- Maximum Cable Run: Standard PoE over Cat5e or Cat6 supports a maximum of 100m per run from the NVR PoE port to the camera. Runs exceeding 100m will require a PoE extender or an intermediate PoE switch to maintain reliable power and data.
- PoE Considerations: The DS-7616NI-M2/16P provides PoE power across all 16 ports. Confirm the total PoE power budget of the NVR against the power consumption of the 10 connected cameras plus any additional cameras added later. Do not exceed the NVR’s total PoE output capacity across all active ports.
- Wiring Tips: Plan cable routes before installation to avoid running data cables parallel to high-voltage power cables for extended distances, which can introduce interference. Use conduit for exposed outdoor runs to protect cabling from UV, moisture, and physical damage. Label each cable at both ends during installation to simplify future maintenance across a 10-camera deployment.
