Product SKU: DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL
Product Overview
The DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL is an 8MP Hikvision Smart Hybrid Light fixed turret camera designed for buyers who need detailed 4K security coverage, colour night recording and visible deterrence in one outdoor-ready camera. It suits residential driveways, shopfronts, warehouses, building perimeters and commercial entry points where clear evidence, person and vehicle filtering, and strong night-time performance are important. With ColorVu, HikAI-ISP image processing, Smart Hybrid Light, dual microphones, a built-in speaker and strobe light, this model is useful where standard motion recording is not enough. The camera is available with 2.8mm or 4mm fixed lens options, allowing installers to choose between wider scene coverage or a more focused view depending on the site layout.
Key Capabilities
8MP Detail for Evidence Capture
The 3840 × 2160 resolution gives this turret camera enough detail for important areas such as driveways, loading zones and entrances. It is useful where a lower-resolution camera may miss small but important visual details.
Colour Night Coverage
ColorVu and low-light image performance help the camera retain useful colour detail after dark. This is valuable when clothing colour, vehicle colour or scene context matters more than simple black-and-white night footage.
Smart Hybrid Light Control
The camera can use IR, white light or smart light behaviour depending on the setup. This helps balance discreet monitoring with full-colour recording when a person or vehicle enters the monitored area.
Active Deterrence Built In
The built-in speaker and strobe light allow the camera to do more than record. In suitable installations, visible and audible warnings can help discourage unwanted activity before it becomes a larger security issue.
Human and Vehicle Filtering
Deep learning detection helps focus alerts on people and vehicles rather than every small movement in the scene. This is useful for busy outdoor areas where trees, shadows or animals can create unwanted motion events.
Outdoor-Ready Housing
With IP67 and NEMA 4X ratings, the DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL is suited to demanding outdoor environments. It is a practical choice for exposed locations where weather resistance and long-term reliability matter.
Best For
- Residential Driveways: Useful where colour night footage, vehicle detection and a visible warning response are valuable.
- Retail Shopfronts: Helps capture faces, clothing colours and after-hours activity near doors, windows and external entry points.
- Warehouses and Loading Areas: Suitable for monitoring movement around stock access points, roller doors and delivery zones.
- Commercial Perimeters: Works well for fixed coverage of fence lines, side paths, car parks and building approaches.
- Sites Needing Deterrence: A strong fit where recording alone is not enough and on-site warning lights or audio alerts are useful.
Why Choose the DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL
The DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL is best chosen when you want a fixed turret camera that combines 8MP image detail, colour night performance, smart detection and active deterrence without moving to a larger PTZ-style camera. Compared with a basic IR turret, this model is better suited to areas where colour evidence, human and vehicle filtering, and warning responses are important. The dual microphone and speaker setup also makes it more versatile than a camera with recording-only audio. As part of the Security Wholesalers range, it suits buyers who want a more capable outdoor camera for high-value zones rather than a simple general-purpose camera.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: Choose the 2.8mm lens when you need a wider view across a driveway, yard or shop floor. Choose the 4mm lens when the target area is narrower and you want a slightly more focused view of entrances, gates or corridors.
Buyer Tip: Active deterrence is most effective when the camera is installed where the strobe and speaker can be noticed. For very discreet monitoring, a non-deterrence camera may be more suitable.

Ideal Use Cases
Driveways
Use the camera near vehicle entry points where colour detail, smart detection and active deterrence can help capture useful events.
Shopfronts
Install near doors, windows or front-facing areas where after-hours colour footage and deterrent lighting may be useful.
Side Access Paths
The fixed turret format suits narrow outdoor paths where person detection and warning responses can improve event awareness.
Warehouse Entrances
Use it around roller doors, delivery entrances or staff entry points where 8MP detail and vehicle filtering are helpful.
Car Parks
Best suited to fixed coverage of selected zones rather than wide moving surveillance, especially near entry lanes or parked vehicles.
Building Perimeters
A good option for external walls, exposed walkways and perimeter areas where weather resistance and event filtering matter.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose the 2.8mm lens if: You need a wider view for general monitoring across a close-range area such as a driveway, front yard, shop floor or open entry zone.
- Choose the 4mm lens if: You want a slightly tighter view for entrances, corridors, gates or more focused monitoring of a defined target area.
- Choose a PTZ camera instead if: You need remote pan, tilt and zoom control across a larger site rather than fixed coverage of one scene.
- Choose a simpler camera if: You do not need colour night recording, active deterrence, two-way audio or person and vehicle filtering.
FAQs
- Is the DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL suitable for driveways?
Yes. The DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL is well suited to driveways where 8MP detail, colour night footage, vehicle filtering and visible deterrence are useful. The 2.8mm lens is generally better for wider driveway coverage, while the 4mm lens suits a more focused view of a gate, entrance or vehicle approach. - What is the difference between the 2.8mm and 4mm lens options?
The 2.8mm lens provides a wider 108.8° horizontal view, making it useful for broad areas close to the camera. The 4mm lens provides a narrower 93.3° horizontal view, which is better when you want more focus on a specific entry point, corridor or vehicle path. The right option depends on how wide the scene is. - Does this camera record in colour at night?
Yes. The DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL uses ColorVu and low-light imaging to support full-colour night-time surveillance when the installation conditions suit it. This is useful where colour details, such as clothing or vehicle colour, may help with reviewing an event. The camera also supports IR or white light illumination up to 30m. - How does Smart Hybrid Light help in real installations?
Smart Hybrid Light gives installers more flexibility than a basic IR-only camera. Depending on the setup, the camera can use infrared for more discreet night monitoring, white light for colour detail, or smart switching behaviour when a target is detected. This helps balance visibility, deterrence and light control around homes or businesses. - Does the DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL support two-way audio?
Yes. This model includes built-in dual microphones and a speaker, allowing two-way audio when configured through a compatible setup. This is useful for locations where the user may want to hear activity near the camera and issue a verbal warning or response through the system when needed. - What does active deterrence do on this camera?
Active deterrence means the camera can respond with a visible strobe light and audio warning rather than only recording the event. For many buyers, this is useful at entrances, driveways, yards and shopfronts where discouraging unwanted activity matters. It should be positioned where the light and sound can be noticed by people entering the area. - Can this camera reduce false motion alerts?
Yes. The DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL supports deep learning person and vehicle detection, which helps filter events so alerts focus on more relevant movement. This can reduce unwanted notifications from minor scene changes such as moving branches, shadows or small animals, especially when configured correctly through a compatible recorder or system. - Is the DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL suitable for outdoor use?
Yes. The camera has IP67 and NEMA 4X ratings, making it suitable for exposed outdoor installations such as driveways, shopfronts, warehouses and building perimeters. It is still important to install it in the right location, use suitable mounting practices and choose the correct lens option for the area being monitored. - Does this camera need an NVR?
The DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL can be used with compatible network video recording equipment for continuous recording, playback and remote viewing. It also supports microSD card storage up to 512GB for onboard retention. For most CCTV installations supplied by Security Wholesalers, pairing the camera with a suitable NVR is the preferred option for easier management and long-term recording.
