Product Overview
Wide-area monitoring across a retail floor, corporate lobby, or transport hub typically demands multiple cameras, complex cabling, and overlapping fields of view. The DS-2CD6395G1E-IVS addresses that challenge with a single ceiling-mounted fisheye device delivering full 360-degree panoramic coverage at 9MP resolution. Featuring a 1/1.8-inch progressive-scan CMOS sensor and a fixed 2 mm fisheye lens, it produces up to 3024 x 3024 imagery that can be dewarped into multiple views including panoramic, hemisphere, and PTZ-split modes. Equipped with Hikvision’s DeepinView AI engine, the camera supports people counting, heat-map generation, and intrusion detection for operational insight beyond basic recording. It also includes built-in IR illumination up to 15 m, a built-in microphone and speaker for two-way audio, onboard microSD storage up to 256 GB, and an IP67/IK10-rated housing rated from -30 degrees C to +60 degrees C, making it deployable in both controlled indoor environments and exposed outdoor positions.
Key Capabilities
9MP 360-Degree Fisheye Coverage
The fixed 2 mm fisheye lens paired with a 1/1.8-inch CMOS sensor delivers up to 3024 x 3024 resolution across a full panoramic scene. One ceiling-mounted device covers an entire room or open-plan floor area without the blind spots that multi-camera arrangements leave between fields of view.
Multi-Mode Dewarping
Raw fisheye imagery is corrected in-camera and via NVR or client software into panoramic, hemisphere, PTZ-split, and corridor views. Ceiling mount suits open-room 360-degree overhead views, while wall mount pairs with 180-degree panorama or PTZ-split modes for entrance and corridor applications.
DeepinView AI Analytics
Onboard DeepinView processing supports people counting, heat-map generation, and intrusion detection. Heat-map data highlights dwell-time patterns and high-traffic zones, giving retail, logistics, and facilities teams actionable intelligence without manual review of recorded footage.
Two-Way Audio
Both a built-in microphone and a built-in speaker are integrated into the housing, enabling real-time two-way voice communication. This supports visitor interaction, verbal deterrence, and audio-triggered event recording without requiring any external audio hardware.
IP67 and IK10 Rated Housing
Full dust and water ingress protection to IP67, combined with IK10 impact resistance, means the DS-2CD6395G1E-IVS can be surface-mounted on external walls, under canopies, or in high-traffic public areas where physical interference is a genuine risk.
Flexible Power and Local Storage
PoE (802.3af) support simplifies single-cable installation, while 12 V DC provides an alternative for locations without PoE infrastructure. A microSD/SDHC/SDXC slot accepts cards up to 256 GB for edge recording, providing continuity if the network recorder becomes temporarily unavailable.
Best For
- Single-Point Wide-Area Coverage: Ceiling-mounted deployment in large open spaces where one device must cover an entire floor area without blind-spot gaps between multiple camera fields of view.
- Retail and Operational Analytics: Environments requiring heat-map data and people counting alongside video surveillance, such as retail floors, supermarket aisles, or exhibition spaces tracking visitor movement and dwell time.
- Lobby and Reception Monitoring with Audio: Corporate or institutional reception areas where two-way audio allows security staff to communicate with visitors directly through the camera without secondary intercom hardware.
- Exposed Outdoor Positions: Canopy undersides, building soffits, or outdoor assembly areas where IP67 weather resistance and IK10 vandal resistance are required alongside panoramic coverage.
- Installations Prioritising Camera Count Reduction: Projects where reducing the number of devices, cable runs, and NVR channels is a priority, as the fisheye format replaces several standard fixed cameras with a single unit.
Why Choose the DS-2CD6395G1E-IVS
A standard fixed camera at 9MP covers a defined angle and produces one stream. The DS-2CD6395G1E-IVS produces a 3024 x 3024 fisheye stream that dewarps into multiple concurrent views from a single ceiling or wall position, reducing channel count, cabling costs, and installation time on large-floor projects. What separates it from a basic fisheye unit is the DeepinView AI layer: people counting and heat-map analytics are processed onboard, so the camera produces operational data as well as recorded footage. The IK10-rated housing and -30 to +60 degree C operating range extend its reach to outdoor and semi-exposed positions that a standard indoor fisheye could not handle. Two-way audio via the integrated microphone and speaker adds a communication function without secondary hardware. Available through Security Wholesalers, the DS-2CD6395G1E-IVS suits integrators and end users who need broad coverage, intelligent analytics, and durable construction from one device.
Buyer Decision Tips
Mount Position Determines Useful View Mode: Ceiling mounting produces the most useful 360-degree overhead coverage for open rooms and retail floors. Wall mounting redirects the fisheye lens horizontally, which suits corridors, entrance zones, and perimeter walls but limits the effective vertical panorama. Decide your mount position before installation, as the dewarp mode selection in your NVR or VMS should match the physical mount orientation to avoid distorted or unusable sub-streams.
IR Range Relative to Room Size: The built-in IR illumination reaches approximately 15 m, which is adequate for smaller rooms, corridors, and covered outdoor areas. In large warehouse floors or open atria exceeding 15 m radius from the camera, supplementary lighting will be needed for usable night-time imagery across the full panoramic scene. Plan mounting height between 2.5 m and 4 m to balance coverage radius and IR effectiveness.

Ideal Use Cases
Retail Floors and Supermarkets
Ceiling-mounted above product aisles or checkout zones, the DS-2CD6395G1E-IVS provides a single overhead panoramic view of the entire floor area. Heat-map analytics identify the highest-traffic zones and dwell-time patterns, giving store managers both security footage and customer flow data from one device.
Corporate and Hotel Lobbies
A single ceiling-mounted unit eliminates the blind spots that conventional fixed cameras leave in open lobby spaces. The built-in two-way audio allows reception or security staff to communicate directly with visitors through the camera, reducing the need for a separate intercom at unstaffed entry points.
Warehouses and Distribution Centres
Mounted on structural columns or overhead racking, the fisheye format covers large floor areas and loading bay zones from fewer camera positions. People counting analytics support occupancy tracking and operational compliance without a separate sensor system.
Transport Hubs and Public Waiting Areas
Station concourses, bus terminals, and airport waiting zones require coverage of large, constantly shifting crowds. The 360-degree fisheye view tracks movement across the full scene, while intrusion detection flags unauthorised access to restricted areas beyond platform barriers or service zones.
Education Campuses and Assembly Areas
Mounting the DS-2CD6395G1E-IVS in hall ceilings or outdoor canopy soffits covers assembly areas, dining halls, and covered walkways with one device. IK10 impact resistance protects the unit in environments where physical contact with fixtures is common.
Outdoor Canopies and Semi-Exposed Positions
The IP67 weather rating and operating range down to -30 degrees C make this camera suitable for undercover outdoor positions such as building entrance canopies, covered car park entries, and outdoor event structures where a weatherproof panoramic unit is required.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You need to cover a large open area from a single camera position, require onboard AI analytics including heat mapping and people counting, and want two-way audio integrated without additional hardware. The IK10/IP67 rating also makes it suitable where vandal resistance and outdoor exposure are factors.
- Choose a different model if: Your site requires IR coverage beyond 15 m in pitch-dark conditions, as the built-in illuminators will not reach across a large unlit warehouse floor. A standard fixed lens camera with longer-range IR would be more appropriate for those distances. Similarly, if your monitoring requirement is a defined narrow angle rather than a full panoramic scene, a conventional turret or bullet camera will deliver higher pixel density across that specific zone without the fisheye distortion correction overhead.
FAQs
- What resolution does the DS-2CD6395G1E-IVS produce, and does it stay sharp after dewarping?
The camera captures at up to 3024 x 3024 pixels using a 1/1.8-inch CMOS sensor. Dewarping a 9MP fisheye source into multiple sub-streams still leaves considerably more pixel detail per view than a standard 2MP or 4MP fixed camera would provide. Detail retention across dewarped views is one of the practical reasons for choosing a high-resolution fisheye over a lower-resolution equivalent. - Which mount orientation works best for ceiling versus wall positions?
Ceiling mounting points the fisheye lens directly downward, producing the most even 360-degree overhead view of the space below. Wall mounting redirects the lens horizontally, which is better suited to corridors, entrance approaches, and perimeter walls but reduces the effective vertical coverage angle. The dewarp mode selected in your NVR or VMS client should match the physical mount orientation to produce a correctly oriented panoramic or PTZ-split output. - Does the camera support two-way audio out of the box?
Yes. The DS-2CD6395G1E-IVS includes both a built-in microphone and a built-in speaker within the housing. No external audio hardware is required. Two-way communication is available through compatible Hikvision NVRs or the iVMS-4200 client software when the camera is connected to the network. - What analytics does the DeepinView engine support on this camera?
The onboard DeepinView AI engine processes people counting, heat-map generation, and intrusion detection directly on the camera without requiring a separate analytics server. Heat-map data is accumulated over configurable time periods and exported via the camera’s web interface or compatible VMS software, making it useful for retail analysis, facilities management, and occupancy reporting. - How far does the built-in IR reach, and is it sufficient for outdoor use at night?
The integrated IR illuminators are rated to approximately 15 m. This is adequate for enclosed rooms, covered walkways, canopy undersides, and lobbies. For larger outdoor areas without supplementary lighting, the 15 m range may not fully illuminate the complete panoramic scene. In those cases, adding external IR flood illuminators to the installation will extend usable night-time coverage across the full fisheye field of view. - Can the camera record locally if the NVR goes offline?
Yes. The DS-2CD6395G1E-IVS includes a microSD/SDHC/SDXC card slot supporting cards up to 256 GB. When configured for edge recording, the camera will write footage to the local card during a network or NVR outage and resume uploading or syncing when connectivity is restored, depending on your NVR or VMS configuration. - Is this camera available in Australia, and where can it be purchased?
The DS-2CD6395G1E-IVS is part of the Security Wholesalers range and is available for purchase through Security Wholesalers, which supplies Hikvision cameras and accessories to security installers and integrators across Australia.
