With a built-in fisheye lens, the DS-2CD63C5G1-IVS achieves complete 360-degree monitoring from a single point. This eliminates the need for multiple cameras, reducing hardware costs and installation complexity. Its dewarping capability allows operators to view the scene in multiple layouts, making it easier to interpret footage and monitor large, open spaces effectively.
Advanced Intelligent Video Analytics
The camera integrates powerful analytics such as heat mapping, intrusion detection and line crossing detection. These features support proactive monitoring and actionable insights, helping users identify behavioural patterns, detect irregular activity and enhance overall security response. It is ideal for environments where data-driven decision making is required.
Reliable Night-Time Performance
Equipped with built-in IR illumination reaching up to 15 metres, the camera performs strongly in low-light or complete darkness. This allows for continuous monitoring around the clock, ensuring security footage remains clear and usable at all times. It is suitable for indoor and outdoor locations where lighting may vary throughout the day.
Durable Outdoor-Ready Construction
Featuring IP67 weather resistance and IK10 vandal-resistant housing, the DS-2CD63C5G1-IVS is built to withstand harsh environmental conditions. This rugged design ensures long-term reliability even in challenging areas such as public spaces, warehouses or exposed outdoor sites. Its durability minimises maintenance requirements and improves installation longevity.
Key Features
-
12MP Ultra-High Resolution: The camera captures exceptionally detailed images at 4000 × 3000 resolution, ensuring clarity across large scenes. This high resolution makes it suitable for applications requiring precise identification or event analysis. Even when digitally zooming into footage, the image quality remains sharp and usable for evidence gathering.
-
360° Panoramic Fisheye View: Using its fisheye lens, the device provides complete 360-degree coverage, eliminating blind spots and reducing the need for multiple cameras. This all-in-one monitoring solution simplifies system architecture, reduces installation costs and improves situational awareness in open or wide environments.
-
Multiple Dewarping Modes: The camera supports fisheye, panoramic, corridor and multi-view dewarping modes, enabling operators to adapt the video layout for their monitoring needs. These modes help convert the fisheye view into more natural viewing angles, allowing easier analysis and event review within VMS and NVR systems.
-
Advanced Analytics Suite: Heat mapping, line crossing detection and intrusion detection deliver enhanced situational awareness and actionable insights. These analytics help identify crowd patterns, detect perimeter breaches and optimise site operations. They also support proactive security measures through automated event triggers.
-
H.265+ Compression Efficiency: Hikvision’s advanced H.265+ codec reduces bandwidth and storage demands significantly without sacrificing video quality. This efficiency makes long-term archiving more cost-effective, helping users maintain high-resolution footage without overwhelming their storage infrastructure.
-
Integrated IR Night Vision: Built-in IR LEDs enable clear visibility up to 15 metres in complete darkness. This ensures uninterrupted surveillance regardless of lighting conditions, making the camera ideal for environments requiring 24/7 monitoring without reliance on external lighting.
-
Rugged IP67 & IK10 Housing: The camera’s robust construction protects it against water, dust and vandalism. This makes the device highly reliable in outdoor or high-traffic areas. Its durability ensures long-term stability and reduced maintenance, even in harsh or exposed installations.
