Product Overview

The DS-2DF6A436XG1-ELY is a high-end Ultra Series PTZ camera from Hikvision, designed for mission-critical surveillance where resolution, zoom reach and performance in low-light matter. It features a 1/1.8″ progressive-scan CMOS sensor delivering up to 2688 × 1520 (4 MP) resolution, combined with an impressive 36× optical zoom (6.0 mm-216 mm) and 16× digital zoom. With DarkFighter 2.0 low-light technology and 150 dB Adaptive WDR, it maintains clarity in challenging lighting. The camera offers full 360° continuous pan and -20° to +90° tilt (auto-flip), housed in a robust IP67/IK10 metal enclosure for demanding outdoor installations.

 

Why Choose the DS-2DF6A436XG1-ELY

If your application calls for ultra-long-range zoom, high fidelity in both day and night, and a PTZ built for extreme environments, this is the solution. The 36× optical zoom lets you cover wide open areas and then zoom in to distant details without losing clarity. DarkFighter 2.0 ensures strong performance in low-light or no-light conditions, while the 150 dB WDR handles high contrast scenes. The rugged build (IP67 and IK10) and full PTZ range (360°/-20° to +90°) make it an ideal choice for airports, transport hubs, industrial perimeters and critical infrastructure.

 

Key Capabilities

4 MP High-Resolution Imaging
Captures 2688 × 1520 resolution from a large sensor to deliver greater clarity than standard HD—helping to identify faces, vehicles and distant activity with confidence.

36× Optical Zoom (6.0-216 mm)
A motorised zoom lens allows smooth transition from wide-angle view to detailed telephoto capture—ideal for large-area surveillance and long-range monitoring.

Exceptional Low-Light Performance
DarkFighter 2.0 technology means this PTZ will deliver usable imagery even in very low ambient lighting, with colour or near-colour performance when others would switch to B/W.

Instant Coverage with Wide PTZ Range
Full 360° endless pan plus a tilt from -20° to +90° (auto-flip) ensure you can monitor both horizon lines and downward angles—no blind spots.

Advanced Analytics & Smart Detection
Built-in deep-learning analytics (face capture, vehicle attribute detection, intrusion/line crossing) enhance responsiveness and reduce false alarms.

Rugged Outdoor Construction
With IP67 weather rating, IK10 vandal resistance, and an operating temperature down to –40 °C and up to +70 °C, this camera is built for harsh outdoor environments.

 

Key Features

  • 4 MP (2688 × 1520) resolution: Provides high-definition imagery for situational awareness and forensic review.

  • 36× optical zoom + 16× digital zoom: Allows dramatic zooming capability—from broad coverage to fine detail—ideal for both wide-open zones and distant subjects.
  • 6.0-216 mm motorised lens: Covers approx. 56.6° wide view down to approx. 1.7° telephoto, giving flexibility in framing large scenes vs. long-range focus.
  • DarkFighter 2.0 + 150 dB AWDR: Optimises imagery when lighting is very low or where bright and dark areas need balancing.
  • 360° continuous pan / –20° to +90° tilt: Enables full-scene coverage and downward angles—for perimeter walls, rooflines, or facility grounds.
  • Smart analytics (face/vehicle/perimeter): Embedded AI capabilities allow the camera to classify humans vs vehicles, capture faces, and perform multi-target tracking for improved event awareness.
  • IP67 & IK10-rated weather-proof housing: Ensures reliability in dusty, wet or exposed locations with high vandal risk.
  • On-board storage support (microSD up to 1 TB): Supports local recording & redundancy for high-risk sites or remote installations.
  • Low-temperature operational capability: Capable of functioning in temperatures from –40 °C to +70 °C—ideal for extreme environments.

Ideal Use Cases

  • Airports & Seaports – Large-scale outdoor hubs requiring long-range zoom, full-coverage PTZ and strong low-light performance.
  • Industrial Facility Perimeters – High-risk outdoor zones needing robust, weather-hardened PTZ coverage with analytics and zoom capability.
  • City Surveillance & Transport Hubs – Track moving subjects across wide open areas, zoom in for details and maintain clarity in complex lighting.
  • Critical Infrastructure & Utility Sites – Dependable, high-resolution PTZ camera for continuous outdoor operation in extreme temperatures and harsh conditions.
  • Large Venue Security – Stadiums, event grounds or open campuses where wide scene monitoring and zoomed-in detail are both needed.

 

Choosing Between Wide and Tele Zoom Settings

The DS-2DF6A436XG1-ELY uses a motorised zoom lens from 6.0 mm (wide) to 216 mm (tele). At 6.0 mm the horizontal field of view is approximately 56.6°, ideal for broad situational awareness. At 216 mm the horizontal field narrows to around 1.7°, enabling precise long-distance inspection and object tracking. Choose wide for panoramic coverage; move to telephoto for detailed scrutiny of remote subjects or entry points.

Lens Setting Approx. Horizontal FOV Best For
6.0 mm ≈ 56.6° Large area surveillance, general coverage
216 mm ≈ 1.7° Long-range inspection, vehicle tracking, distant subjects

 

FAQs

  1. Is the camera suitable for extremely low-light settings?
    Yes — thanks to DarkFighter 2.0 technology, the DS-2DF6A436XG1-ELY supports very low illumination levels (colour mode to ~0.0003 Lux) and maintains clarity in challenging nighttime or no-light conditions.
  2. What sort of outdoor conditions can this camera handle?
    The camera is built with an IP67 (dust/water) rating and IK10 (vandal protection), and supports operating temperatures from –40 °C to +70 °C, making it suitable for exposed, high-risk or harsh-environment outdoor installations.
  3. Can this model effectively zoom in on distant objects?
    Absolutely — the 36× optical zoom (6.0-216 mm) and 16× digital zoom give the flexibility to cover wide areas and then focus on remote targets with high detail, ideal for perimeter monitoring, transport hubs or large-site surveillance.
