Product Overview
For remote and off-grid deployments where fixed power and ethernet are simply not available, the Hikvision DS-2DE5425IWG-4G delivers full PTZ surveillance capability without relying on any installed infrastructure. Featuring a 1/2.8″ progressive scan CMOS sensor, 4 MP resolution at 2560 x 1440, and a 4.8-120 mm motorised lens with 25x optical zoom, it covers both wide-area scenes and distant subjects in a single unit. Built-in 4G connectivity enables remote network access via mobile SIM, while the IP66-rated metal housing includes a built-in heater and surge protection for operation across temperatures from -30°C to 65°C. Infrared illumination reaches up to approximately 150 metres for reliable nighttime monitoring in open environments. The 360° endless pan and -15° to 90° tilt range, combined with 300 presets and 3D positioning, make the DS-2DE5425IWG-4G suited to farms, construction sites, utilities, and critical infrastructure where broad coverage and long-range detail are both required.
Key Capabilities
25x Optical Zoom
The 4.8-120 mm motorised lens shifts between a 55° wide field of view and a 2.4° telephoto angle, allowing operators to monitor an entire yard then zoom into fine detail across a large site without repositioning the camera.
Built-in 4G Connectivity
A built-in 4G module accepts a mobile SIM card to provide network access at locations with no fixed internet. This makes the DS-2DE5425IWG-4G deployable at remote farms, construction zones, and temporary monitoring positions without running ethernet cable.
Up to 150 m IR Night Vision
High-output infrared LEDs illuminate subjects up to approximately 150 metres, maintaining usable 4 MP video in complete darkness across wide open outdoor areas such as paddocks, staging yards, and unmanned perimeters.
Full PTZ Range with 300 Presets
360° endless pan and -15° to 90° tilt cover every angle without mechanical stops. Support for 300 presets and 3D positioning lets installers configure automated patrol routes and rapid point-to-point positioning across large monitored areas.
On-Board Storage up to 256 GB
A built-in eMMC paired with a microSD slot supporting up to 256 GB enables local recording at the camera. This is particularly valuable on 4G-connected sites where continuous cloud or NVR streaming would consume mobile data allowances.
Rugged All-Weather Housing
IP66 weather sealing, integrated surge and lightning protection, a built-in heater, and an operating range of -30°C to 65°C prepare the unit for exposed coastal, desert, alpine, and industrial outdoor environments without additional enclosures.
Best For
- Off-grid remote sites: The combination of 4G connectivity and compatibility with solar power supply makes this camera viable at locations with no mains power or fixed network, such as rural properties, pumping stations, and unmanned facilities.
- Large open-area monitoring: The 25x optical zoom and 360° PTZ range allow a single camera to survey broad spaces and then zoom into specific points of interest, reducing the total number of cameras needed on expansive properties.
- Construction and mining sites: Temporary or semi-permanent deployments benefit from the 4G SIM option, on-board storage, and robust IP66 housing that can withstand dust, vibration, and temperature extremes common on active worksites.
- Critical infrastructure and utilities: The integrated surge and lightning protection, built-in heater, and wide temperature tolerance make the unit well suited to substation perimeters, pipeline corridors, and similar exposed assets.
- Event and temporary security deployments: On-board microSD recording combined with 4G connectivity allows a self-contained setup that can be moved between venues or sites without requiring new network infrastructure at each location.
Why Choose the DS-2DE5425IWG-4G
The DS-2DE5425IWG-4G addresses a specific gap in outdoor PTZ coverage: sites that need long-range zoom and full pan-tilt control but cannot accommodate fixed power or ethernet runs. The 25x optical zoom and 150 m IR range handle identification tasks that fixed cameras simply cannot match at distance. A built-in 4G module removes the dependency on local network infrastructure entirely, while on-board eMMC and microSD storage up to 256 GB means footage is captured locally even when connectivity is intermittent. The IP66 housing with integrated heater, surge protection, and a -30°C to 65°C operating range eliminates the need for external enclosures in harsh environments. A lower-power operating mode further extends solar viability by reducing draw when full performance is not needed. Available through Security Wholesalers, this model is suited to buyers who require a single, self-contained PTZ unit capable of operating independently at remote or infrastructure-limited locations.
Buyer Decision Tips
Camera only vs. full solar kit: This listing supplies the DS-2DE5425IWG-4G camera unit. The solar panel, battery, and mounting hardware are not included. If you need a complete off-grid solution ready to install, a full solar kit bundle is available separately. Confirm your power supply arrangement before ordering the camera on its own.
Lead time and 4G SIM planning: This product carries a 6-8 week lead time, so factor this into project scheduling. The camera requires a compatible 4G SIM card for network connectivity. Confirm your preferred carrier’s coverage at the installation site and source a suitable data SIM in advance so the unit can be activated on arrival.

Ideal Use Cases
Remote Farms and Rural Properties
The built-in 4G module allows the camera to transmit footage and receive commands via mobile network where no fixed ethernet is available, making it practical for monitoring large paddocks, laneways, and entry gates on rural holdings.
Construction and Mine Sites
The IP66 housing, -30°C to 65°C operating range, and surge protection handle the harsh conditions of active worksites. The 25x zoom enables equipment and personnel monitoring across large open areas from a single elevated mounting position.
Utilities and Critical Infrastructure
Substation perimeters, pipeline corridors, and water treatment sites benefit from the integrated lightning and surge protection alongside the wide operating temperature range, reducing the risk of outage from electrical events or extreme weather.
Temporary and Mobile Security Deployments
On-board microSD storage up to 256 GB combined with 4G connectivity means the camera can record and transmit independently without a permanent NVR. This suits event security, temporary site monitoring, and deployments that move between locations.
Large Open Car Parks and Logistics Yards
The 360° endless pan and 150 m IR range allow a single camera to sweep an entire yard at night without blind spots, while the 25x zoom supports detailed review of vehicle movements, loading dock activity, and entry or exit points.
Solar-Powered Off-Grid Installations
A low-power operating mode drawing as little as 3 W reduces energy demand between active periods, extending solar battery life between charge cycles. This makes the DS-2DE5425IWG-4G particularly well suited to solar-powered mounting structures in areas with limited daily sun hours.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: Your site has no fixed mains power or ethernet, requires long-range zoom coverage across a large open area, and needs a camera that can operate independently via 4G with on-board local recording.
- Choose a different model if: Your installation has reliable mains power and fixed ethernet available. A wired PTZ camera in the same resolution class will typically offer lower total cost and remove the dependency on mobile data plans and SIM management.
- Choose a different model if: You need a complete ready-to-install off-grid kit with solar panels and battery included. This listing supplies the camera unit only. The full solar kit bundle, which includes panels and battery hardware, is listed separately.
- Consider lead time: This product has a 6-8 week lead time. If your project requires immediate delivery, confirm stock availability before committing to a schedule.
FAQs
- Does this listing include the solar panel and battery?
No. This listing supplies the DS-2DE5425IWG-4G camera unit only. The solar panel, battery pack, and associated mounting hardware are available as part of a separate full solar kit bundle. If you need a complete off-grid system, refer to that kit listing rather than purchasing this camera alone.
- What SIM card does the camera require?
The DS-2DE5425IWG-4G uses a standard 4G LTE SIM card. You will need to source a data SIM from a compatible Australian carrier. Check mobile coverage at your installation site before purchasing, as the camera relies entirely on 4G signal for remote access and live monitoring when no fixed network is present.
- Can the camera record locally without a network connection?
Yes. The camera includes built-in eMMC storage plus a microSD card slot supporting up to 256 GB. This allows continuous local recording even when the 4G connection is intermittent or unavailable, which is common on remote sites during periods of poor signal.
- How far can the camera see at night?
The built-in infrared illumination provides usable visibility up to approximately 150 metres. At maximum zoom the field of view narrows to approximately 2.4°, so the effective illuminated area at long range is a tight corridor. For broad nighttime coverage, the camera performs best at mid-range zoom settings where the beam spread and IR output are balanced.
- What does low-power mode do and when should I use it?
In low-power mode the DS-2DE5425IWG-4G can draw as little as 3 W, significantly reducing energy consumption compared to full-performance operation. This mode is suited to solar deployments in locations with limited daily sunlight hours, where conserving battery charge between cycles is a priority. Full-performance mode is recommended when continuous high-quality monitoring is required around the clock.
- Is the camera suitable for installation in extreme temperatures?
Yes. The metal IP66-rated housing includes a built-in heater and is rated for operation between -30°C and 65°C. Combined with integrated surge and lightning protection, the unit is designed for exposed outdoor environments including alpine, coastal, and desert conditions without requiring an additional weatherproof enclosure.
- What is the lead time and where can I purchase the DS-2DE5425IWG-4G?
This product carries a 6-8 week lead time from order placement. It is available through Security Wholesalers, where you can also find the separate full solar kit bundle if you require a complete off-grid installation package. Factor the lead time into your project schedule when planning procurement.
