Hikvision DS-2CD2366G2H-IU 6MP AcuSense Turret Camera – 2.8mm

Give your home or business a clear view of everyday activity with a compact Hikvision turret camera designed for entrances, driveways, shop floors and work areas. The fixed 2.8mm lens provides broad coverage, while AcuSense human and vehicle classification helps you concentrate on relevant activity when event rules are correctly configured.

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU combines detailed 6MP recording with a built-in microphone, infrared night illumination and Powered by DarkFighter low-light imaging. It is a practical choice for adding a camera to a compatible Hikvision IP system or planning a new installation with straightforward PoE cabling.

Why choose this camera?

• Cover more of the approach: a wide-angle lens suits entrances and open areas where seeing the surrounding activity matters.
• Review events with context: recorded sound can help explain what happened alongside the video when audio is enabled on a supported recorder.
• Make alerts more useful: configure person and vehicle event rules around the parts of the scene that matter to your property.
• Simplify installation: compatible PoE equipment carries network data and power over one Ethernet cable.
• Choose a tidy mounting format: the turret design suits ceiling, eave and suitable wall installations with the correct mounting accessories.

Detailed technical specifications

Plan the right coverage

For a front entrance, include the approach and position the camera so visitors occupy a useful part of the frame. For a retail floor or workshop, consider how shelving, parked vehicles and opening doors may block the view. A wide view is useful for overall coverage; the detail available on a distant face or vehicle depends on mounting height, lighting and subject distance.

Keep nearby walls, eaves and reflective surfaces out of the infrared illumination path where possible. Test the image after dark as well as during the day, and adjust exposure, event areas and recording settings to suit the location. The 30m rating describes maximum illumination reach, rather than a guaranteed identification distance.

Recording and installation

Connect to a compatible IP NVR, or use a suitable PoE network switch with compatible recording software. Check the recorder’s resolution support, incoming bandwidth, camera-channel capacity and per-port/total PoE budget before installation. Remote viewing and event notifications depend on the configured camera, recorder, network and supported client features.

Set recording quality and retention to suit your needs. H.265+ can help manage storage on supported equipment, but actual recording time depends on bitrate, scene activity, recording schedule and hard-drive capacity. Recorder, storage card, network cable, power supply and mounting accessories are separate unless specifically included.
