Product Overview

Combining full-colour night imaging, deep learning detection, and an active deterrence system in a single bullet housing, the DS-2CD2T87G2-LSU/SL is a second generation 8MP ColorVu camera built for perimeter and outdoor surveillance where passive recording alone is not enough. Available in 2.8mm or 4mm fixed lens options, it delivers 24/7 vivid colour footage using white light LEDs that illuminate up to 60m, eliminating the need for external lighting in dark environments. AcuSense technology uses deep learning algorithms to classify targets as human or vehicle, filtering out motion from animals, foliage and weather. When a genuine threat is confirmed, Live-Guard technology activates an audible alarm and a warning strobe light to alert intruders and draw attention to the area. Built-in two-way audio, an F1.0 aperture lens, 130dB WDR, and IP67 weatherproofing make this camera suited to warehouse perimeters, retail car parks, construction sites, and residential driveways requiring active deterrence.

Key Capabilities

8MP ColorVu Full-Colour Imaging

The second generation ColorVu sensor and F1.0 aperture lens deliver full-colour footage around the clock. Even at night, the 60m white light illuminators produce vivid, detailed images that support identification at distances relevant to driveway, car park, and building perimeter coverage.

AcuSense Deep Learning Detection

AcuSense classifies motion events as human or vehicle using deep learning algorithms. This means intrusion alerts are tied to genuine targets rather than blowing leaves, insects, or passing cars outside the detection zone, reducing the number of unnecessary notifications reaching operators or monitoring centres.

Live-Guard Active Deterrence

Live-Guard combines a visible warning strobe light and an audible alarm that can be triggered on detection. Unlike passive cameras that only record, this system actively challenges trespassers at the point of entry, which is particularly effective at unmanned outdoor perimeters during after-hours periods.

Built-In Two-Way Audio

With both a built-in microphone and a built-in speaker, the DS-2CD2T87G2-LSU/SL supports real-time voice communication in both directions. Operators can issue verbal warnings remotely, adding another layer of active response to the camera’s Live-Guard deterrence capability.

130dB Wide Dynamic Range

130dB WDR manages scenes with extreme contrast between bright and shadowed areas, such as building entrances under direct sunlight or car park exits with oncoming headlights. Detail is preserved in both the brightest and darkest parts of the frame simultaneously.

IP67 Weatherproof Bullet Housing

The bullet form factor is rated IP67, providing complete protection against dust ingress and immersion up to 1m. The housing is suited to wall and soffit mounting on exposed outdoor positions where the camera faces direct rain, dust, and temperature variation across Australian conditions.

Best For

  • Unmanned Perimeter Monitoring: The Live-Guard strobe and audio alarm are triggered on AcuSense-confirmed human or vehicle detection, making this camera suited to after-hours monitoring of loading docks, fenced yards, and site boundaries without a guard on site.
  • Dark Outdoor Environments Without External Lighting: The 60m white light range and F1.0 aperture mean the camera produces colour footage in areas where installing external flood lighting is not practical or cost-effective.
  • High-Contrast Entry Points: The 130dB WDR handles vehicle entry lanes, roller door openings, and building facades where bright daylight and deep shadow appear in the same frame.
  • Sites Requiring Remote Verbal Intervention: Two-way audio with a built-in speaker enables operators monitoring via NVR or VMS software to speak directly to individuals in the camera’s field of view, complementing the automated deterrence features.

Why Choose the DS-2CD2T87G2-LSU/SL

Standard bullet cameras record events after they occur. The DS-2CD2T87G2-LSU/SL introduces a response layer that most fixed cameras in this class do not offer. The combination of AcuSense classification, Live-Guard strobe, and audio alarm means the camera is not only capturing footage but actively responding to confirmed intrusion attempts at the time they happen. The 8MP sensor provides the image resolution needed for post-event review at distances where a 4MP or 5MP camera would show insufficient detail for identification. The F1.0 aperture lens and 60m white LED illumination produce colour imagery without relying on ambient light sources, which is a meaningful practical advantage over IR-only cameras on dark perimeters. The built-in two-way audio adds operator intervention capability that would otherwise require a separate audio device. Available at Security Wholesalers, the DS-2CD2T87G2-LSU/SL delivers capabilities typically found across multiple devices in a single IP67-rated outdoor bullet camera.

Buyer Decision Tips

Lens Selection – 2.8mm vs 4mm: The 2.8mm lens provides a 102 degree horizontal field of view, which suits wide coverage of open areas such as car parks, driveways, or warehouse floors where the camera is mounted close to the area being monitored. The 4mm lens narrows the horizontal field of view to 88 degrees but extends the DORI detection distance to 111m versus 96m on the 2.8mm, making it more appropriate for longer approaches, fence lines, or narrower corridors where depth of coverage matters more than width. Choose the 2.8mm for broad coverage at close-to-medium distances and the 4mm when you need additional reach along a defined path or entry point.

Live-Guard Configuration: The strobe and audio alarm triggered by Live-Guard are configurable through the camera’s interface and compatible NVR or VMS. Before installation, confirm that the connected recording platform supports AcuSense event triggers and Live-Guard output actions. On unsupported recorders the camera will still record and detect, but the deterrence response may need to be configured via the camera’s onboard settings independently of the recorder’s event management.

Ideal Use Cases

Warehouse and Industrial Yard Perimeters

After-hours perimeter monitoring benefits directly from Live-Guard. When AcuSense confirms a human or vehicle intrusion, the strobe and alarm engage immediately. The 60m white light range covers wide yard approaches in colour, giving operators and recording systems usable footage for identification.

Retail Car Parks and Loading Zones

The 130dB WDR and 8MP sensor manage headlight glare and mixed lighting common in car parks. AcuSense filters vehicle and pedestrian movement accurately, and the two-way audio allows staff or monitoring operators to speak to individuals loitering or behaving suspiciously without physical presence.

Construction Site Boundaries

Construction sites with minimal ambient lighting are suited to the camera’s 60m white LED illumination and F1.0 aperture, which produces colour footage without relying on site lighting. The deterrence alarm is a practical tool against after-hours theft and vandalism where a security guard is not present.

Residential Driveways and Front Boundaries

The 2.8mm lens option covers a broad driveway or front yard approach with a 102 degree horizontal field of view. For residential applications, AcuSense limits false alerts from wildlife or passing traffic, while the visible strobe and alarm act as a deterrent at the point of approach before entry is attempted.

Unmanned Remote Monitoring Deployments

For sites managed by a remote monitoring centre, the combination of AcuSense alerts, two-way audio, and Live-Guard output means operators can receive classified event notifications, view full-colour footage, speak to individuals on site, and trigger the strobe alarm, all without dispatching personnel for investigation.

Choosing the Right Model

  • Choose this model if: You need a single outdoor bullet camera that actively responds to intrusions with a strobe and audio alarm, produces full-colour night footage out to 60m without external lighting, classifies targets using AcuSense, and supports two-way audio communication for remote operator response.
  • Choose a different model if: You need a discreet ceiling-mounted camera for indoor areas where a bullet housing, white light LEDs, and an audible alarm would be intrusive or inappropriate. A dome or turret form factor without active deterrence features would be better suited to indoor office, retail floor, or reception environments.
  • Choose a different model if: Your coverage requirement involves a single wide-angle view across a large open area that a fixed 2.8mm or 4mm bullet lens cannot adequately frame. A varifocal or motorised zoom bullet camera would provide adjustable field of view to match the specific geometry of the site without compromising image quality.

FAQs

  1. What does Live-Guard actually do when motion is detected?
    When AcuSense confirms a human or vehicle target, Live-Guard can trigger a visible warning strobe light and an audible alarm from the camera itself. This active response is configurable through the camera settings or a compatible NVR, and is designed to alert the intruder that they have been detected rather than silently recording the event.
  2. Does the DS-2CD2T87G2-LSU/SL produce colour footage at night without any external lighting?
    Yes. The camera uses white light LEDs with a 60m illumination range and an F1.0 aperture lens to produce colour imagery in complete darkness. Unlike IR cameras that produce black and white night footage, this camera delivers colour detail throughout the night, which is relevant for identifying clothing colour, vehicle colour, and scene context.
  3. How does AcuSense reduce unwanted alerts compared to standard motion detection?
    Standard motion detection triggers on any pixel change, including wind-blown foliage, insects near the lens, rain, and reflections. AcuSense uses deep learning to classify detected objects as human or vehicle before generating an alert. This means event notifications and Live-Guard responses are triggered by relevant targets rather than environmental changes, which is important for sites receiving remote monitoring or push notifications.
  4. Which lens should I choose for a front driveway installation?
    For a typical residential driveway or narrow approach path where the camera is mounted at one end and needs to cover the full width at moderate range, the 2.8mm lens with its 102 degree horizontal FOV is generally the better choice. If the driveway is long and straight and you need to identify faces or number plates at greater distance, the 4mm lens extends the DORI recognition distance to 22m and detection distance to 111m, which may be more appropriate.
  5. Is the two-way audio functional out of the box, or does it require accessories?
    The DS-2CD2T87G2-LSU/SL has both a built-in microphone and a built-in speaker, so two-way audio is supported natively. No external microphone or speaker is required. Access to the two-way audio function depends on the client software or NVR interface being used, but no additional hardware is needed to use it. This is confirmed through Security Wholesalers product documentation for this model.
  6. What weather conditions is this camera rated for?
    The camera carries an IP67 rating, meaning it is fully protected against dust ingress and can withstand immersion in water up to 1m deep for up to 30 minutes. In practical terms, this means the camera is suitable for exposed outdoor mounting positions subject to heavy rain, high humidity, and dusty industrial environments without requiring additional housing or enclosures.
  7. Can this camera be wall or pole mounted rather than surface mounted directly to a wall?
    Yes. The DS-2CD2T87G2-LSU/SL is compatible with Hikvision mounting accessories including junction boxes and pole mount brackets. The Hikvision DS-1260ZJ junction box and DS-1280ZJ-S junction box with gland are listed as compatible accessories, as is the DS-1275ZJ-S-SUS vertical pole mount bracket, allowing flexible installation on walls, soffits, and poles depending on site requirements.
