High-Security 4K Surveillance in a Rugged Vandal Dome

The Hikvision DS-2CD2183G2-IS is an 8 MP AcuSense Fixed Dome Network Camera engineered for high-security commercial, retail, educational, and public facility surveillance. Powered by a 1/2.8" progressive scan CMOS sensor, it captures crisp 4K Ultra HD footage (3840 × 2160 @ 20 fps / 3200 × 1800 @ 25/30 fps) with low-light color sensitivity down to 0.005 Lux. Available in 2.8 mm (107° FOV) for broad situational coverage and 4 mm (87° FOV) for enhanced focal identification, its 3-axis gimbal adjustment (pan 0° to 355°, tilt 0° to 75°, rotate 0° to 355°) ensures fast, flexible mounting on ceilings or walls.

Intelligent Target Classification with Audio and Alarm Integration

Equipped with embedded deep-learning AI processors and extensive physical interfaces, this dome camera delivers proactive event detection and seamless system integration:

  • AcuSense Perimeter Protection: Distinguishes humans and vehicles during line crossing and intrusion detection events, filtering out nuisance alarms caused by moving foliage, shadows, rain, or small animals.
  • Audio & Alarm Interface (-S): Includes dedicated two-core terminal blocks for 1 audio line-in, 1 audio line-out (with noise filtering), and 1 alarm input / 1 alarm output (max. 12 VDC, 30 mA) for external sensors and sirens.
  • Smart 30-Meter Infrared Night Vision: Integrated 850 nm Smart IR automatically adjusts illumination intensity to provide clear black-and-white video in 0 Lux darkness without overexposing approaching subjects.
  • 120 dB True WDR: Preserves balanced exposure across high-contrast environments, window backlighting, and bright entryways.
  • Face Detection: Automatically detects facial features within the scene for rapid forensic search and security event logging.

Heavy-Duty IK10 & IP67 Protection with Low-Power PoE

Built with an aluminum alloy body and high-impact plastic bubble, the camera is certified IK10 vandal-resistant and IP67 weather-sealed, operating reliably from -30 °C to 60 °C. It supports local edge storage up to 512 GB via an onboard microSD card slot and operates efficiently via standard PoE (802.3af, max 7.5 W) or 12 VDC power.

FAQ

What does the AcuSense AI feature actually do?

AcuSense filters out false alarms by distinguishing humans and vehicles from other motion like leaves, rain, or animals. You only get alerts when a person or vehicle enters the monitored area.

Can I use this as a live home camera?

Absolutely. Connect it to your network via PoE and view live footage through the Hik-Connect mobile app. You can watch real-time video from anywhere, plus receive motion alerts on your phone.

What is 4K night vision quality like on this camera?

This camera delivers 8MP (3840x2160) resolution — true 4K clarity. At night, the 30m IR illumination combined with the 1/2.8" sensor produces detailed black-and-white footage you can actually identify people and vehicles from.

How does the 120dB WDR help in real-world situations?

If you mount this camera facing a bright entrance, window, or parking lot, WDR balances the exposure so you don't get blown-out highlights or dark silhouettes. Both bright and dark areas of the scene remain visible and identifiable.
