Hikvision DS-2CE72UF3T-LSYE(2.8mm) Smart Hybrid Light ColorVu 4K TVI Fixed Turret Camera | 2.8mm Fixed Lens, Built-in Mic

It needs a DVR that supports 4K TVI input to get the full 3840 x 2160 resolution, which runs at 12.5 or 15 fps. If your DVR only supports lower resolutions, the camera also outputs 3K, 4 MP and 1080p at higher frame rates, so check your recorder’s supported input list before you specify it.

Not if your DVR supports PoC.at, which can power the camera over the same coax as the video and audio signal. Hikvision recommends one power adapter per camera if you’re not using PoC, so check which route your DVR supports before planning the run.

The datasheet states a pickup radius of up to 5 m, so it suits capturing audio close to the camera, such as at a doorway or counter, rather than across a large yard or car park.

The camera offers Smart, IR and white light modes, letting it switch or blend lighting automatically. Exact configuration is done through the camera’s on-screen menu, so if you need a specific lighting behaviour for a particular site, it’s worth checking the full manual or confirming with Hikvision before committing.

Optional brackets include a junction box, corner mount and pole mount options such as the DS-1280ZJ-TR13 and DS-1272ZJ-110-TRS, which are listed as accessories for this camera. Match the bracket to your mounting surface and check the fixing centres against the camera’s base dimension of 110 mm.

No, 4K resolution is limited to 12.5 or 15 fps on this camera. If you need smoother motion capture, you’ll need to drop the output to a lower resolution such as 1080p, which supports 25 or 30 fps.
