Product SKU: DS-2CD2386G2-ISU/SL Kit
Product Overview
The DS-2CD2386G2-ISU/SL Kit is an 8MP 4K Hikvision AcuSense active deterrence camera system designed for buyers who need high-detail outdoor coverage, intelligent event filtering and visible warning features across multiple areas. The kit includes 4 x Hikvision DS-2CD2386G2H-ISU/SL AcuSense fixed turret cameras and a Hikvision 4CH NVR, making it suitable for homes, driveways, shopfronts, warehouses, business perimeters and higher-risk entry points. Each camera combines 4K resolution, DarkFighter low-light performance, EXIR night vision, two-way audio, a strobe light and audible warnings. This makes the system useful where clear footage, accurate human and vehicle detection, and proactive deterrence are all important parts of the security setup.
System Capabilities
4K Coverage Across Four Cameras
Each included camera records at 8MP resolution, giving the system strong detail across multiple fixed viewpoints. This is useful for sites that need clear footage at entrances, driveways, side access points and perimeter areas.
Active Deterrence at Key Areas
The built-in strobe light and speaker allow each camera to provide visible and audible warnings. This helps the system do more than record, especially around driveways, gates, shopfronts and other areas where deterrence matters.
Two-Way Audio Communication
Built-in microphones and speakers allow talk-and-listen functionality when configured with compatible equipment. This is useful near front doors, service entries, loading points and customer-facing areas where remote communication may help.
AcuSense Human and Vehicle Detection
AcuSense detection helps focus events on people and vehicles rather than every movement in the scene. This can reduce nuisance alerts from trees, animals, shadows or other irrelevant motion around outdoor areas.
DarkFighter Low-Light Performance
DarkFighter technology and EXIR infrared help improve night-time visibility up to 30m. This is valuable for outdoor zones where lighting changes throughout the night or where constant bright lighting is not practical.
4CH NVR Recording
The included 4CH Hikvision NVR provides central recording and management for the four-camera system. This suits buyers wanting a complete fixed-camera setup without selecting a separate recorder for the included cameras.
Outdoor Fixed Turret Design
The IP66-rated turret cameras are designed for outdoor use and fixed scene coverage. They suit permanent monitoring of selected areas rather than moving surveillance across a large open site.
Best For
- Homes and Driveways: Useful for covering vehicle entries, front approaches, side gates and outdoor access points with 4K detail and deterrence.
- Small Businesses: A good fit for shopfronts, back doors and customer-facing entry points where alerts and visible warnings are useful.
- Warehouses and Workshops: Suitable for roller doors, loading zones and perimeter access where people and vehicle detection can reduce false alerts.
- High-Risk Outdoor Areas: Works well where strobe light, audible warnings and two-way audio may help discourage unwanted activity.
- Four-Camera Fixed Coverage: Best for sites needing four fixed viewpoints rather than a larger expandable camera system.
Why Choose This Kit
This kit is a strong choice when you want a complete four-camera Hikvision system with high-resolution recording, smart event filtering and active deterrence across several outdoor areas. A basic 4MP or non-deterrence camera kit may be enough for general monitoring, but this system is better suited to locations where identifying useful detail and discouraging activity are both priorities. The included 4CH NVR keeps the setup focused and simple for a four-camera installation. As part of the Security Wholesalers range, it suits buyers who want a practical fixed-camera system for driveways, business perimeters, shopfronts or exposed outdoor access points.
Package Inclusions
- 4 x 8MP 4K AcuSense Strobe Light and Audible Warning Fixed Turret Network Camera
- 1 x 4CH Hikvision NVR (AcuSense Firmware)
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: This is a four-camera kit with a 4CH NVR, so it is best suited to installations where four camera positions are enough. If you expect to add more cameras later, consider whether a higher-channel recorder would be more suitable before purchasing.
Buyer Tip: Active deterrence works best when cameras are positioned where the strobe light and audible warning can be noticed. Use these cameras near entrances, gates and exposed access areas rather than hidden locations where deterrence would be less effective.

Ideal Camera Placement
Front Driveway
Use one camera to cover vehicles, front approach movement and visitor access where 4K detail and deterrence are useful.
Front Door or Entry Gate
Place a camera where two-way audio, a strobe warning and person detection can support visitor and after-hours monitoring.
Side Access Path
A fixed turret camera works well along narrow side paths where unwanted movement needs to be detected and recorded clearly.
Rear Yard or Loading Area
Use a camera for back-of-property monitoring, loading activity or external work areas where night visibility matters.
Shopfront
Install near doors or windows where active deterrence and people detection can help protect after-hours entry points.
Business Perimeter
Use around external walls, gates or fence approaches where vehicle and person filtering can improve event review.
Choosing the Right Kit
- Choose this kit if: You need four fixed 8MP cameras with AcuSense detection, two-way audio, strobe light and audible warning features.
- Choose a larger kit if: You need more than four camera positions now or want spare channels for future expansion.
- Choose a different camera type if: You need remote pan, tilt and zoom control across a wide open area rather than fixed coverage.
- Check your storage needs if: You require longer recording retention, as the supplied information does not list an included hard drive capacity.
FAQs
- Is the DS-2CD2386G2-ISU/SL Kit suitable for a home driveway?
Yes. The DS-2CD2386G2-ISU/SL Kit is suitable for driveways where 8MP detail, vehicle detection and active deterrence are useful. One camera can be positioned to cover the driveway approach, while the other cameras can cover entry points, side paths or rear access areas. The 2.8mm fixed lens is best for broad fixed coverage rather than adjustable zoom.
- How many cameras are included in this kit?
This kit includes 4 x 8MP 4K AcuSense strobe light and audible warning fixed turret network cameras. It also includes 1 x 4CH Hikvision NVR with AcuSense firmware. Because the recorder is 4CH, the kit is designed around four camera positions rather than a larger expandable camera layout.
- Does this kit include active deterrence?
Yes. Each included camera has a built-in strobe light and speaker for active deterrence. This allows the system to issue visible and audible warnings when configured correctly. It is especially useful around entrances, gates, driveways, shopfronts and other exposed areas where discouraging activity is just as important as capturing footage.
- Can the cameras record audio and support two-way audio?
Yes. The cameras include a built-in microphone and speaker, allowing two-way audio when used with a compatible setup. This can be useful near front doors, service entries and business access points where you may want to listen and speak remotely. For best results, camera placement should consider both visibility and where audio interaction is most useful.
- How does AcuSense detection help this kit?
AcuSense helps the system distinguish human and vehicle movement from irrelevant motion such as foliage, shadows or small animals. This can reduce false notifications and make event review more useful. In real installations, this matters most around outdoor areas where standard motion detection can be triggered too often by normal environmental movement.
- Is a hard drive included with this kit?
The supplied information lists 4 x 8MP AcuSense fixed turret cameras and 1 x 4CH Hikvision NVR, but it does not list an included hard drive. Buyers should confirm storage requirements before purchase, especially if longer recording retention is required. Security Wholesalers can help match the system to practical storage needs based on camera count and recording expectations.
- Are the cameras suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes. The included cameras are IP66 rated for water and dust resistance, making them suitable for outdoor areas such as driveways, shopfronts, warehouses and business perimeters. Correct mounting, cable protection and camera direction still matter, especially in exposed locations or areas with strong backlight, glare or heavy weather exposure.
- What is DarkFighter useful for in this kit?
DarkFighter helps improve image quality in low-light conditions, while EXIR infrared provides night visibility up to 30m. This is useful for areas that are not constantly well lit, such as side paths, driveways, rear yards and commercial perimeters. It helps the system remain useful after dark without relying only on external lighting.
- Can I add more cameras to this kit later?
This kit includes a 4CH Hikvision NVR and four cameras, so the listed recorder channels are already allocated to the included cameras. If future expansion is important, consider whether a higher-channel recorder or larger kit would be a better choice from the start. This avoids replacing the recorder later when more camera positions are needed.
