Hikvision DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL 8MP 4K ColorVu Smart Hybrid Light Turret Camera 2.8mm AcuSense Active Deterrence Two-Way Audio

The Hikvision DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL is Hikvision’s current-generation 8MP 4K ColorVu turret with a 2.8mm fixed lens delivering a 108.8° horizontal field of view — combining Smart Hybrid Light (IR + white light), AcuSense AI person and vehicle detection, active strobe deterrence, and full two-way audio in a single IP67-rated unit. Built for Australian homes, businesses and security installers who need professional-grade protection without compromise.

8MP 4K ColorVu — Colour Detail That Holds Up When It Matters

Built on a 1/1.8″ progressive scan CMOS sensor with an F1.0 aperture and a minimum colour illumination of 0.0005 Lux, the DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL captures rich colour detail in conditions where lesser cameras produce blurry, grey footage. The 2.8mm fixed lens delivers a wide 108.8° horizontal field of view — ideal for driveways, entry points, shopfronts and open areas where broad coverage from a single camera is the priority. At 3840 × 2160 (8MP 4K), footage quality is high enough to identify faces, clothing colour and vehicle make at meaningful distances — critical for investigations and insurance claims across Australian homes, retail sites and commercial properties.

Smart Hybrid Light — Three Illumination Modes, One Camera

Unlike standard white light cameras that blast visible light continuously all night, the Smart Hybrid Light system integrates both 850nm IR and white light LEDs with three configurable supplemental lighting modes — giving you precise control over how the camera behaves after dark:

All three modes cover up to 30 metres. In Smart mode, neighbours and the surrounding environment experience no light intrusion between detection events — only at the moment it matters.

AcuSense AI — Person & Vehicle Classification with Face Capture

Hikvision’s AcuSense deep learning engine classifies targets as human or vehicle before triggering any alarm — eliminating the false alerts that plague sites with pets, foliage, passing headlights or other motion sources. Perimeter protection covers line crossing, intrusion, region entrance and region exit, all filtered by target type. The DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL also supports face capture — a step up from standard AcuSense cameras — enabling face-based search and review via Hik-Central and compatible NVRs. For security installers and system integrators specifying cameras for managed sites, face capture adds significant post-incident value without requiring a separate specialised camera.

Active Deterrence — Strobe + Audio Alarm That Fires on AI Confirmation

The built-in strobe light and audio alarm are linked directly to AcuSense AI detection — they activate only when a human or vehicle target is confirmed, not on general motion. This distinction matters: a camera that strobe-alerts on every passing car or bird becomes ignored background noise within days. On the DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL, deterrence is specific and deliberate. The active deterrence schedule is fully configurable — restrict it to after-hours only, disable strobe while retaining AI recording, or adjust trigger sensitivity per zone. For residential driveways, retail shopfronts and construction sites across Australia, this is the difference between a deterrence system that works and one that gets switched off.

Full Two-Way Audio — Arrayed Dual Microphone + 2W Speaker

A built-in arrayed dual-microphone provides higher-quality audio capture than single-mic cameras — environmental noise filtering is applied to both channels for clear, intelligible recordings. The integrated 2W speaker (110 dB @10cm) enables real-time voice-down via Hik-Connect from a smartphone or desktop — address visitors, warn intruders, or communicate with delivery personnel without opening a door or leaving your desk. Audio and alarm interfaces also support external connections for more complex site integrations.

130 dB WDR + HikAI-ISP — No Blown-Out or Crushed Footage

With 130 dB scene-adaptive Wide Dynamic Range and Hikvision’s HikAI-ISP noise reduction processing, the camera handles the lighting conditions that break most fixed-lens cameras: shopfronts with bright outdoor light and dim interiors, car parks with direct headlight exposure, entrances with strong backlight. The result is usable, detail-rich footage in the situations where security incidents most often occur — not just in ideal lighting conditions.

PoE+ 802.3at — Single Cable, Power and Data

The DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL draws up to 17W via IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (Class 4). A single Cat6 cable from a compatible PoE+ switch or NVR handles both power and data — no separate power supply required. Note: standard 802.3af PoE is not sufficient for this camera. All current Hikvision AcuSense NVRs with built-in PoE ports support 802.3at — confirm your switch or NVR spec before ordering if using non-Hikvision infrastructure. ONVIF compliance (Profile S, G, T) is supported; note that ONVIF compliance does not guarantee full feature support on third-party NVR systems.

Where This Camera Earns Its Place Across Australia

🏠 Residential — driveways, entry points and side access — the 2.8mm wide-angle lens covers a full driveway or entry zone from a single mounting point; Smart mode keeps the yard dark between events while full-colour footage and voice-down capability give homeowners genuine control from their phone at any hour

🏪 Retail shopfronts and small commercial — active deterrence fires on AI-confirmed intruder detection after hours, reducing false alarm callouts while face capture supports post-incident review for staff disputes and theft investigations

🏭 Warehouses and industrial sites — NEMA 4X anti-corrosion housing combined with IP67 weatherproofing handles the demanding environments that standard cameras deteriorate in; AcuSense filtering prevents perimeter alarms being triggered by forklifts, machinery or environmental movement

🏢 Offices and commercial buildings — two-way audio enables reception staff or security teams to communicate directly with anyone in the camera’s field of view without being physically present; pairs with Hikvision AcuSense NVRs for multi-camera face capture and perimeter search

⚡ Electricians and security installers — single Cat6 cable handles power and data via PoE+; confirm 802.3at capability on the switch or NVR before installation; all current Hikvision AcuSense NVRs with built-in PoE ports support 802.3at and are plug-and-play compatible
