Product SKU: DS-2DF8C435MHS-DELW
Product Overview
The DS-2DF8C435MHS-DELW is a premium 4 MP Ultra-Series PTZ speed dome designed for large-scale outdoor surveillance applications. Featuring a dual 1/1.8″ progressive-scan CMOS sensor system delivering up to 2560 × 1440 resolution, and equipped with 35× optical zoom plus 16× digital zoom, it offers detailed coverage across expansive areas. Enhanced with DarkFighterX low-light imaging, built-in IR illumination up to approximately 300 metres, IP67/IK10 rated housing (excluding dome), and a full PTZ motion range, this camera is built for demanding installations like airports, railyards, ports, large campuses and outdoor perimeters.
Why Choose the DS-2DF8C435MHS-DELW
When your site demands rugged, high-precision surveillance with excellent low-light performance and long-distance visibility, the DS-2DF8C435MHS-DELW stands out. Its 35× zoom range allows broad situational awareness and then fine detail capture for distant targets. DarkFighterX technology ensures usability in near-dark or mixed-lighting conditions, while the robust IP67/IK10 enclosure and temperature tolerance make it suitable for exposed, high-risk environments. Combined with intelligent analytics (face capture, vehicle/traffic detection) and advanced pan/tilt/zoom capabilities, this model offers high-end performance for critical outdoor deployments.
Key Capabilities
4 MP High-Resolution Imaging
With up to 2560 × 1440 resolution from a dual 1/1.8″ sensor system, the camera delivers crisp, high-quality imagery suitable for identifying people, vehicles and events across large site environments even at longer ranges.
35× Optical Zoom (5.9–206.5 mm)
The motorised varifocal lens moves from wide-angle to narrow telephoto in seconds, enabling coverage of open spaces and then zooming in to inspect remote details such as vehicle registration or person movement.
Exceptional Low-Light & IR Performance
DarkFighterX imaging technology combined with built-in IR illumination up to about 300 metres ensures that imagery remains usable and detailed in very low ambient light or night-time environments.
Full PTZ Range with Smart Control
Offers 360° continuous pan, –20° to +90° tilt with auto-flip and high pan/tilt speeds, allowing comprehensive coverage of large zones, rooftops, perimeters and challenging outdoor scenarios.
Robust Outdoor Build
Designed for harsh environments, the camera’s housing meets IP67 and IK10 ratings (excluding dome), supports –40 °C to +70 °C operation, includes demister, wiper and heater options, making it suitable for exposed industrial or coastal sites.
Key Features
-
4 MP (2560 × 1440) resolution: Offers high-definition detail across large-scale environments for better identification and situational awareness.
-
35× optical zoom + 16× digital zoom: Enables broad coverage and then detailed zoom on targets—ideal for perimeters, infrastructure and large open spaces.
-
5.9–206.5 mm motorised lens: Covers approximately 60.2° horizontal field of view at the wide end down to 2.24° at full telephoto, delivering both context and precision.
- DarkFighterX + IR illumination up to ~300 m: Ensures the camera remains effective in very low-light and zero-light conditions, maintaining usable colour or detail when standard cameras struggle.
-
140 dB WDR + 3D DNR + EIS: Handles high-contrast scenes such as entrances, parking lots, backlit subjects or variable lighting, while suppression features reduce noise for long-range clarity.
-
IP67 / IK10 housing + heater/wiper/demister: Built to withstand weather, dust, vibration and vibration from long-range zoom motions—ideal for exposed or industrial outdoor environments.

Ideal Use Cases
- Ports & Maritime Facilities – With long-distance zoom and strong illumination, it is ideal for monitoring docks, vessel movement and large waterside perimeters.
- Transport Hubs & High-Traffic Corridors – Excellent for highway overviews, rail stations, tram stops and large transit zones where wide coverage and detailed tracking are essential.
- Critical Infrastructure & Industrial Sites – With rugged build and advanced analytics, it supports plants, substations, factories and high-risk outdoor sites requiring 24/7 surveillance.
- Large Open Spaces – Suitable for public squares, stadiums, parks or campuses where a single PTZ must cover vast areas and zoom in for close-up detail.
- Harsh Outdoor Environments – Coastal zones, salt-air exposure, extreme weather or exposed perimeters where durability and weather resistance are critical.
Choosing Between Wide and Tele Zoom Settings
The DS-2DF8C435MHS-DELW supports a motorised zoom range from 5.9 mm (wide) to 206.5 mm (tele). At the wide setting you gain approximately 60.2° horizontal field of view — ideal for general scene coverage and situational awareness. At full telephoto the horizontal field tightens to ~2.24°, perfect for detailed inspection of distant targets such as vehicles, gates or perimeter fences.

Tip:
Choose the wide zoom setting for broad scene coverage and general monitoring; switch to the telephoto end when you need to focus on distant subjects or perform detailed inspections.
FAQs
- How effective is night vision?
With built-in IR illumination up to approximately 300 metres and ultra-low-light performance built into the dual-sensor DarkFighterX system, the camera continues to deliver usable imagery even in darkness, supporting identification well beyond typical PTZ night ranges.
- What does the dual-sensor setup achieve?
The dual 1/1.8″ progressive-scan sensors improve brightness, dynamic range and colour fidelity in challenging lighting conditions. This enables better low-light colour capture, improved clarity at longer ranges, and higher detail for forensic or identification needs.
- Is the camera suited for harsh outdoor or coastal environments?
Yes — rated to IP67 (dust/water-resistant) and IK10 (vandal-resistant, excluding dome), and capable of operating from –40 °C to +70 °C. With built-in heater, demister and wiper options, it is designed for remote, exposed, high-stress outdoor surveillance sites.
