DS-2CD2163G2-I

Manufacturer reference

Manufacturer details describe the cited version. Confirm the exact unit and intended system.

Image and stream references

Device class

6 MP AcuSense Vandal Fixed Dome Network Camera

Maximum image size

The listed maximum image size is 3200 × 1800, described as 6 MP. This is not a statement of frame rate at that size.

Minimum illumination condition

Colour 0.005 lux at F1.6 with AGC on, or black-and-white 0 lux with IR, is listed. Confirm exposure, scene and lighting.

Shutter range

1/3 to 1/100,000 second is listed. Exposure time is separate from video frame rate.

Day and night filter

An IR cut filter is listed, with Day, Night, Auto and Schedule switching. Confirm selected settings for the scene.

Manual viewing adjustment

Pan 0–355°, tilt 0–75° and rotation 0–355° are listed adjustments. This fixed dome is not a motorised PTZ camera.

Sub-stream frame-rate modes

At 50 Hz, 25 fps is listed for 1280 × 720, 640 × 480 and 640 × 360; at 60 Hz, 30 fps is listed for the same sizes. These are sub-stream modes, not an inferred main-stream or third-stream capability.

Compression by stream

The main stream lists H.265, H.264, H.264+ and H.265+; the sub-stream lists H.265, H.264 and MJPEG. Confirm recorder and decoding compatibility; no unresolved third-stream option is included.

Video bit-rate reference

32 kbps to 16 Mbps is listed. Actual bit rate depends on stream and image settings; this is not a storage-duration guarantee.

Codec profiles and rate control

H.264 Baseline, Main and High profiles, H.265 Main profile, CBR/VBR and SVC for H.264/H.265 encoding are listed. Confirm the actual recorder and enabled mode.

Region of interest

One fixed region is listed for the main stream and sub-stream. It is not a promise of multiple independently configured regions per stream.

Lens, lighting and image controls

Lens options

2.8 mm and 4 mm fixed focal lenses are listed as options. A base-model enquiry does not select the actual lens or merge a separately imported lens-labelled record.

Lens mount and aperture

M12 mount, fixed iris and F1.6 aperture are listed. This does not establish universal replacement-lens compatibility.

Supplement light reference

IR supplement light is listed with a stated range up to 30 m. This is infrared illumination, not white light or a guaranteed identification distance.

Infrared wavelength

850 nm is the listed IR wavelength. It is not a radio frequency or the wavelength of white light.

Wide dynamic range

120 dB true WDR is described. This is a manufacturer image-processing reference, not a guarantee of every backlit scene.

Signal-to-noise reference

The listed SNR is at least 52 dB. Scene, exposure and test conditions still affect the resulting image.

Image enhancement

BLC, HLC and 3D DNR are listed. They are image-processing settings, not additional camera resolution or a guaranteed result in every scene.

Privacy masking

Four programmable polygon privacy masks are listed. Configuration is required; masks are not automatically proof of privacy compliance.

Interfaces, power and physical selection

Ethernet interface

One self-adaptive RJ45 10/100 Ethernet port is listed. This is not a Gigabit or Wi-Fi interface.

Integration references

Open Network Video Interface Profiles S, G and T, ISAPI, SDK and ISUP are named. This reference is not an interoperability test or a completed website/OS integration.

Network protocol references

IPv4, IPv6, HTTP, HTTPS, RTP, RTSP, SRTP and SFTP are named among the protocol references. No cloud account, remote access or network service has been configured by this page.

On-board storage

A memory-card slot supports microSD, microSDHC and microSDXC cards up to 512 GB. Confirm a compatible card; no card or recording duration is promised as included.

Network storage

NAS using NFS or SMB/CIFS and ANR are listed. Confirm compatible storage and configuration; this is not a completed connection to a NAS or ISD OS.

Human and vehicle event references

Motion detection, line crossing and intrusion with human/vehicle target classification are listed. Confirm enabled rules, firmware, scene and recorder support; this is not facial identification or a false-alarm-free promise.

DC supply reference

12 V DC ±25%, 0.5 A and maximum 6 W are listed with a 5.5 mm coaxial power plug and reverse-polarity protection. Confirm supply and cable design; an adapter is not promised as included.

PoE supply reference

IEEE 802.3af Class 3 and maximum 7.5 W are listed for PoE. This is an alternative supply mode; do not add it to the DC consumption or treat it as a whole-switch budget.

Body materials

An aluminium-alloy body and plastic bubble are listed. This is not a special anti-corrosion or marine coating approval.

Body dimension reference

The table and complete drawing agree on 110.8 mm outside diameter and 84.7 mm overall height. Confirm actual mounting clearance and supplied hardware.

Body weight reference

Approximately 400 g is listed for the camera, separately from packaged weight. It is not a confirmed shipping weight or actual box-content promise.

Startup and operating conditions

−30 to 60 °C with humidity up to 95%, non-condensing, is listed for startup and operation. Confirm actual site, power and installation conditions.

Enclosure protection reference

IP67 and IK10 are listed with IEC 60529 and IEC 62262 references. These are not proof of Malaysian certification, a marine rating or approval of the installed cable entries.

Corrosion limitation

The manufacturer states no specific anti-corrosion protection for this model. Generic examples for higher protection levels must not be read as coastal or chemical-plant suitability for this camera.

Reset control

A reset key is listed. Confirm the applicable procedure and actual firmware; no device or customer data has been reset by this page.

Selection notes

• Manufacturer reference for DS-2CD2163G2-I only. Confirm the actual lens, hardware revision, firmware, region, recorder and mounting conditions before selection. This base-model reference does not establish a different suffix, lens-labelled catalogue identity or included accessory.
• ISD supplies products only. Manufacturer information does not confirm stock, price, delivery, local warranty, actual box contents, authorisation, image rights or publication approval.
• Match the exact lens and suffix before selection. Audio, microphone and alarm features marked -S, -IS or -2U are not established for this base-model enquiry. No compatibility or installed-performance test has been completed.
