Product Overview

Wide-area monitoring across a shopfront, warehouse entrance, or car park usually demands multiple cameras and multiple VMS licences. The DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL changes that calculation by delivering a 180-degree panoramic field of view from a single bullet-style housing, capturing a full horizontal sweep at 8MP resolution with 24/7 full-colour imaging courtesy of ColorVu Gen 2 technology. Featuring a 4mm fixed lens with a horizontal FOV of 180 degrees (plus or minus 10 degrees) and 44 degrees vertically, it removes the blind spots that typically appear between adjacent cameras. Built with AcuSense deep learning, it classifies detected movement as human or vehicle, cutting through false triggers caused by rain, animals, or foliage. It also integrates an active deterrence system combining a strobe light and audio alarm, along with a built-in microphone and speaker for two-way audio. This makes it well suited to unmanned access points, loading docks, retail floor entries, and large indoor spaces where a single camera installation needs to deliver both broad situational awareness and an immediate on-site response capability.

Key Capabilities

180-Degree Panoramic Coverage

A horizontal FOV of 180 degrees (plus or minus 10 degrees) with a 44-degree vertical sweep allows a single camera to cover wide entrances, full shopfronts, or open floor areas that would otherwise require 2 or more standard cameras, reducing installation time and VMS licence costs.

ColorVu Gen 2 Full-Colour Night Vision

White supplemental lighting reaching up to 40m provides full-colour footage around the clock, even in near-zero ambient light (0.0005 Lux). Unlike IR cameras that produce greyscale imagery, this camera retains colour detail at night, including clothing colours and vehicle tones, supporting faster incident review.

AcuSense Human and Vehicle Classification

Deep learning algorithms differentiate people and vehicles from other motion sources such as animals, leaves, and weather. This filters out low-priority triggers at the detection stage, so operators reviewing footage or responding to alerts are only dealing with events that are genuinely relevant to security.

Active Deterrence: Strobe and Audio Alarm

An integrated strobe light and audio alarm activate in response to detected intrusion events, providing an immediate on-site deterrent without requiring a guard or remote operator. This positions the DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL as a proactive deterrence tool rather than a passive recording device.

Two-Way Audio with Built-In Mic and Speaker

With both a built-in microphone and a built-in speaker confirmed, this camera supports real-time two-way audio communication. Security staff or monitoring centres can issue verbal warnings directly through the camera, adding an additional layer of response capability without separate intercom hardware.

130 dB WDR and H.265+ Compression

A 130 dB wide dynamic range handles high-contrast scenes such as entrances with bright outdoor light and shadowed interiors. H.265+ compression reduces storage and bandwidth demands significantly compared to older codecs, which is particularly important when recording high-resolution panoramic footage around the clock.

Best For

  • Wide Entry and Exit Points: The 180-degree horizontal FOV captures the full width of loading docks, warehouse roller doors, or retail entry zones from a single mounting point, eliminating the gap coverage problem common with fixed narrow-angle cameras.
  • Unmanned or After-Hours Sites: The combination of AcuSense classification, active strobe, audio alarm, and two-way audio means the camera can respond to an intrusion event autonomously, without requiring immediate human intervention.
  • Licence Cost-Sensitive Installations: Replacing 2 standard cameras with a single DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL unit reduces VMS channel counts and licence fees while maintaining equivalent or superior area coverage.
  • Retail Floors and Shopping Centre Common Areas: 24/7 colour imaging and a broad panoramic sweep provide consistent, colour-accurate coverage over open floor spaces where lighting varies throughout trading hours and overnight.

Why Choose the DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL

The DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL is not a straightforward bullet camera. Its 180-degree panoramic field of view at 8MP resolution, driven by ColorVu Gen 2 white-light technology, is a hardware combination that a standard fixed-lens bullet simply cannot replicate from the same mounting position. AcuSense classification is built in at the processing level, not bolted on via software, which means human and vehicle filtering works directly at the camera edge. The active strobe and audio alarm, paired with a confirmed built-in microphone and speaker, give this camera a functional role beyond passive recording – it can intervene in real time. For installers and end users evaluating whether one camera or two is the right solution for a wide entry point or open commercial space, the DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL makes a strong case. Available through Security Wholesalers, this model suits projects where reducing camera count without sacrificing coverage area is a genuine design priority.

Buyer Decision Tips

Coverage Width vs. Detail Depth: The 180-degree horizontal FOV provides excellent situational awareness across wide scenes, but DORI figures reflect this trade-off. At 4mm, identification range is 7m and recognition is 15m. If your primary goal is identifying individuals at a choke point beyond 15m, a narrower-angle camera at higher zoom will serve you better. This camera excels where overall scene coverage and active deterrence matter more than long-range facial detail.

VMS and Storage Planning: Recording a full 8MP panoramic stream continuously at the best quality setting will consume significantly more storage than a 4MP standard camera. If your NVR or VMS is near capacity, review your storage allocation before deploying multiple units of this model. H.265+ compression helps substantially, but planning storage headroom in advance avoids overwriting critical footage during high-activity periods.

Ideal Use Cases

Warehouse Entries and Loading Docks

A 180-degree FOV from a single wall or ceiling mount covers the full width of a roller door or dock bay. AcuSense filters vehicles and personnel separately, giving logistics operators meaningful event data rather than constant motion alerts from forklifts passing across the frame.

Retail Shopfronts and Floor Entries

Mounted above a retail entry, the DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL captures the complete width of the entry zone in full colour at all hours, including in low-light after-hours conditions. The strobe and audio alarm can be triggered for out-of-hours intrusion events without requiring a guard on site.

Shopping Centre and Factory Common Areas

Wide open floor areas that previously required multiple cameras to eliminate dead zones can be covered more efficiently with this model. Reducing camera count also reduces VMS licences and cabling runs, which translates directly to lower installation and ongoing system costs.

Unmanned After-Hours Sites

Sites that operate without on-site personnel overnight benefit from the active deterrence pairing: the strobe disrupts an intruder’s confidence while the audio alarm draws attention. Two-way audio allows a remote monitoring operator to issue a verbal warning in real time without dispatching a guard.

Car Parks and Outdoor Open Areas

The panoramic sweep paired with 40m white-light illumination covers wide outdoor areas in full colour at night. AcuSense vehicle classification means security teams can isolate vehicle-specific events quickly when reviewing footage after an incident in a multi-bay car park environment.

Choosing the Right Model

  • Choose this model if: You need to cover a wide horizontal span (up to 180 degrees) from a single camera position, want 24/7 full-colour imaging without IR greyscale, and require active deterrence via strobe and audio alarm at the same mounting point.
  • Choose a different model if: Your primary requirement is long-range identification at distances beyond 15m – a standard bullet with a narrower field of view and higher zoom lens will deliver better DORI identification performance at distance than this panoramic unit.
  • Choose a different model if: Your scene has a defined narrow corridor or choke point where a standard field of view is adequate – a conventional 4MP or 8MP bullet without the panoramic lens would provide deeper reach and may suit a lower storage budget.

FAQs

  1. What does the 180-degree FOV mean in practice for a large open space?
    From a single mounting point on a wall or ceiling, the DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL captures a full horizontal sweep of 180 degrees (plus or minus 10 degrees). In a warehouse or retail floor context, this means the camera can face directly along a wall and capture the full width of the space in front of it without panning, which would otherwise require 2 or more cameras with overlapping coverage zones.
  2. How does AcuSense work on this camera, and does it reduce false alarms?
    AcuSense uses deep learning algorithms processed at the camera edge to classify detected motion as human, vehicle, or other. Triggers caused by rain, blowing leaves, small animals, or lighting changes are filtered at source. This means fewer low-priority alert notifications for operators and cleaner search results when reviewing recorded footage by event type.
  3. Is the strobe light and audio alarm automatic, or does it need to be manually triggered?
    The active deterrence system on the DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL can be configured to activate automatically in response to a detection event such as an AcuSense-classified human or vehicle trigger. It can also be triggered manually through the VMS or Hikvision management platform. Configuration options will depend on your connected recording and management software.
  4. Does this camera support two-way audio out of the box?
    Yes. The DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL has a confirmed built-in microphone and a confirmed built-in speaker. This means real-time two-way audio communication is supported without any additional accessories. A remote operator can speak through the camera and hear audio from the scene simultaneously, provided the connected NVR or VMS platform supports two-way audio streaming.
  5. What is the white light range and does the camera record in colour at night?
    The supplemental white light on this camera reaches up to 40m. Because it uses white light rather than infrared, the camera captures full-colour footage at night down to 0.0005 Lux, and at 0 Lux when the supplemental light is active. There is no switch to greyscale night mode – colour imaging is maintained around the clock.
  6. How much storage will this camera consume compared to a standard 8MP bullet?
    The camera uses H.265+ compression which substantially reduces bitrate compared to H.264, but recording a 180-degree 8MP panoramic stream continuously is still more storage-intensive than a narrow-angle 8MP camera at equivalent quality settings. Storage planning should account for higher average bitrates per camera, particularly if motion is frequent across the wide scene. Consult your NVR’s storage calculator using the expected bitrate for your chosen stream quality.
  7. Where can I get support or purchase the DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL in Australia?
