Product SKU: DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL
Product Overview
The DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL is a professional-grade Ultra Series PTZ speed dome camera designed for large-area, mission-critical surveillance. With a 1/1.8″ progressive-scan CMOS sensor delivering up to 2688 × 1520 (4 MP) resolution, it captures precise detail even in extreme environments. The camera features an impressive 36× optical zoom (6.0 mm–216 mm) plus 16× digital zoom, enabling detection of distant targets with clarity. Equipped with DarkFighter 2.0 technology for exceptional low-light performance, 150 dB adaptive wide dynamic range (AWDR) for challenging lighting, built-in gyroscopic image stabilisation, and housed in a rugged IP67/IK10 metal enclosure with optional NEMA 4X corrosion protection, the DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL is engineered for airports, seaports, industrial perimeters, transport hubs and other demanding outdoor installations.
Why Choose the DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL
If you require long-range zoom, ultra-clear resolution, and resilient build quality for continuous outdoor operation, this camera is an excellent choice. The 36× zoom enables you to link broad situational awareness with critical fine-detail capture. Combined with DarkFighter 2.0 and 150 dB AWDR, the image stays clear in deep night and high-contrast scenes. Its full PTZ range (360° continuous pan, –20° to +90° tilt with auto-flip), advanced analytics, and weather-hardened housing make it ideal for installations where reliability, clarity and performance cannot be compromised.
Key Capabilities
4 MP High-Resolution Imaging
Captures sharp 2688 × 1520 video, providing excellent definition for identifying persons, vehicles or distant activities across expansive areas.
36× Optical Zoom (6.0–216 mm)
Allows for broad coverage of large scenes and zooming in for detailed inspection without sacrificing image clarity — perfect for monitoring long driveways, perimeters or large yards.
Exceptional Low-Light Performance
Thanks to DarkFighter 2.0 technology and a large sensor, the camera delivers usable colour or near-colour imagery even in very low ambient light — crucial for 24/7 outdoor surveillance.
Full PTZ Range & Smart Tracking
With 360° endless pan and –20° to +90° tilt (auto-flip), the camera covers wide open areas and downward angles. Gyro-assisted stabilisation ensures smooth viewing even during zoom or movement.
Rugged Outdoor Construction
Engineered for harsh environments: IP67 ingress protection, IK10 vandal resistance, optional NEMA 4X corrosion rating, and wide-temperature operation (-40 °C to +70 °C) make it a robust choice for exposed installations.
Advanced Image Enhancement & Analytics
150 dB AWDR balances scenes with strong backlight. Built-in analytics help with smart tracking, face capture, vehicle detection and behaviour monitoring — elevating surveillance from passive to proactive.
Key Features
-
4 MP (2688 × 1520) resolution: Offers clarity beyond standard HD for reliable identification and detailed monitoring.
-
36× optical zoom + 16× digital zoom: Enables transitions from wide area overview to zoomed-in detail — ideal for large-site coverage and remote object tracking.
-
6.0–216 mm motorised lens: Covers approximately 59.1° wide to 2.0° telephoto field of view — giving flexibility to monitor both broad areas and far-away subjects.
- DarkFighter 2.0 low-light imaging: Maintains excellent image quality even at colour sensitivity levels of ~0.0003 lux, making the camera effective in near-dark conditions.
- 150 dB Adaptive WDR: Ensures balanced and clear imaging in scenes with high contrast, such as building entrances at dawn or dusk.
- 360° pan & –20° to +90° tilt with auto-flip: Provides full scene coverage including overhead and downward views — essential for comprehensive outdoor surveillance.
- Built-in gyroscope & image stabilisation: Keeps the image steady during movement or wind vibration, maintaining clarity during zoom operations.
- IP67 / IK10 / optional NEMA 4X housing: Weather, vandal and corrosion resistant — suitable for exposed coastal, industrial or transport environments.

Choosing Between Wide and Tele Zoom Settings
The DS-2DF7A436IXG-EL features a motorised zoom lens from 6.0 mm (wide) to 216 mm (tele). At the wide-end (6.0 mm) you’ll have approximately 59° horizontal view — ideal for broad situational monitoring. At the tele-end (216 mm) the horizontal view tightens to around 2.0°, giving you the ability to zoom in on distant entry points, licence plates or vehicles. Choose wide for coverage; switch to telephoto for detail.
