6MP High-Resolution Imaging

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU captures surveillance footage at up to 3200 × 1800 resolution, providing considerably more image detail than conventional 2MP and 4MP cameras.

High-resolution imaging can assist when reviewing:

• People
• Clothing
• Vehicles
• Driveways
• Entrances
• Property Activity
• Commercial Areas
• Objects
• Security Incidents

The 6MP resolution provides an excellent balance between image detail, bandwidth requirements and recording storage for professional CCTV systems.

Powered-by-DarkFighter Technology

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU features Hikvision's Powered-by-DarkFighter technology, designed to provide enhanced image quality under challenging low-light conditions.

The camera combines a 1/2.4-inch Progressive Scan CMOS sensor with an ultra-wide F1.0 aperture, helping capture more available light.

Hikvision specifies minimum illumination of:

Colour: 0.001 Lux @ F1.0, AGC ON

B/W: 0 Lux with IR

This makes the camera particularly suitable for locations where ambient lighting may be limited.

Ultra-Wide F1.0 Aperture

The camera's F1.0 aperture allows significantly more available light to reach the image sensor than conventional smaller-aperture CCTV lenses.

This supports the camera's excellent low-light performance and helps retain useful image detail in poorly illuminated environments.

Typical applications include:

• Driveways
• Car Parks
• Building Entrances
• Warehouses
• Side Access
• Commercial Properties
• Perimeter Areas
• Low-Light Outdoor Locations

Hikvision AcuSense Technology

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU incorporates Hikvision AcuSense deep-learning technology to classify human and vehicle targets during supported security events.

Rather than treating every movement within the scene as equally important, AcuSense can focus event detection on:

• Humans
• Vehicles

This can help reduce unnecessary event triggers caused by irrelevant movement such as:

• Animals
• Leaves
• Rain
• Shadows
• Changing Lighting
• Other Non-Target Movement

Human & Vehicle Classification

The camera supports alarm triggering by specified human and vehicle target types.

This classification can be used with compatible motion and intelligent perimeter-protection functions, helping make event notifications and recorded footage searches more relevant.

When connected to a compatible Hikvision NVR, this provides a more intelligent surveillance solution than conventional motion-only CCTV.

Intelligent Perimeter Protection

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU supports intelligent perimeter-protection functions including:

• Line Crossing Detection
• Intrusion Detection
• Region Entrance Detection
• Region Exit Detection

These functions support human and vehicle target classification.

This allows professional installers to create intelligent monitoring rules around:

• Driveways
• Gates
• Property Boundaries
• Side Access
• Restricted Areas
• Car Parks
• Loading Areas
• Building Entrances

Face Capture

The camera also supports face capture as a deep-learning function.

Face capture should not be confused with facial recognition. The camera can capture facial images, while recognition and database matching require compatible back-end equipment and appropriate system configuration.

120dB True Wide Dynamic Range

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU features 120dB True WDR, helping maintain usable image detail when very bright and dark areas appear simultaneously within the scene.

This is particularly useful for:

• Building Entrances
• Garage Entrances
• Covered Driveways
• Shopfronts
• Loading Areas
• Areas Facing Bright Daylight
• High-Contrast Indoor/Outdoor Scenes

Smart IR Night Vision – Up to 30m

When ambient lighting becomes insufficient, the camera can switch to infrared night surveillance.

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU provides Smart IR illumination up to 30 metres, allowing surveillance in complete darkness.

Smart Supplement Light technology helps manage infrared illumination according to the monitored scene.

This makes the camera suitable for night surveillance around:

• Driveways
• Building Entrances
• Car Parks
• Warehouses
• Commercial Properties
• Side Access
• Perimeter Areas

Built-In Microphone

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU includes a built-in microphone for real-time audio security.

This allows compatible Hikvision recording systems to capture audio together with surveillance footage, providing additional context when reviewing security events.

Integrated audio can be particularly useful around:

• Entrances
• Driveways
• Retail Premises
• Warehouses
• Offices
• Workshops
• Commercial Properties

Audio recording should always be configured and used in accordance with applicable privacy and surveillance requirements.

2.8mm & 4mm Fixed Lens Options

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU is available with 2.8mm and 4mm fixed lens options.

2.8mm Lens

Provides approximately:

• 114.8° Horizontal
• 60° Vertical
• 143.5° Diagonal

The wider 2.8mm option is particularly suitable for:

• Driveways
• Front Yards
• Building Entrances
• Retail Areas
• General Outdoor Surveillance
• Wide Indoor Areas

4mm Lens

Provides approximately:

• 94° Horizontal
• 50.2° Vertical
• 112° Diagonal

The 4mm option provides a narrower field of view where greater concentration on a specific target area is required.

H.265+ Video Compression

The camera supports Hikvision's efficient H.265+ video compression technology, helping reduce bandwidth and recording storage requirements.

Supported compression includes:

• H.265+
• H.265
• H.264+
• H.264

This makes the DS-2CD2366G2H-IU well suited to high-resolution continuous recording on compatible Hikvision NVR systems.

Multiple Video Streams

Multiple video streams allow different video settings to be used for different applications, including:

• High-Resolution NVR Recording
• Remote Viewing
• Mobile Viewing
• Secondary Monitoring
• Bandwidth Management

This allows installers to optimise the camera according to network and recording requirements.

microSD Storage up to 512GB

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU incorporates a built-in memory-card slot supporting:

• microSD
• microSDHC
• microSDXC

with capacity up to 512GB.

Local storage can be useful for:

• Edge Recording
• Event Recording
• Backup Recording
• Standalone Camera Applications
• Additional Recording Resilience
• Network Interruption Protection

Memory card sold separately.

Hik-Connect Remote Access

The camera supports Hik-Connect as part of a correctly configured Hikvision surveillance system.

Depending on the complete system configuration, compatible remote functionality can include:

• Live Viewing
• Recorded Playback
• Event Monitoring
• Security Notifications
• Audio Monitoring

ONVIF & Professional Integration

For professional network integration, the camera supports:

• ONVIF Profile S
• ONVIF Profile G
• ONVIF Profile T
• ISAPI
• SDK
• ISUP

This provides flexibility for integration with compatible professional surveillance platforms.

PoE Connectivity

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU can be powered using:

• 12V DC ±25%
• IEEE 802.3af PoE, Class 3

Maximum specified power consumption is approximately:

• 6.5W using 12V DC
• 8W using PoE

PoE allows network data and operating power to be delivered through a single Ethernet cable when connected to compatible equipment.

This makes installation straightforward with compatible:

• Hikvision PoE NVRs
• PoE Network Switches
• Professional IP CCTV Networks

IP67 Weather Resistance

The DS-2CD2366G2H-IU carries an IP67 water and dust resistance rating, making it suitable for properly installed outdoor surveillance applications.

Typical locations include:

• Driveways
• Building Entrances
• Under Eaves
• Car Parks
• Warehouses
• Loading Areas
• Commercial Buildings
• Side Access
• Property Perimeters

Robust Metal Construction

Hikvision specifies both the camera cover and main body as metal, providing robust construction for professional CCTV installations.

The camera measures approximately:

Ø138.3 × 115.4mm

and weighs approximately:

770g

The operating temperature range is -30°C to +60°C, supporting installation across a wide range of environments.
