Selection notes

• Confirm the complete DS-2CD2186G2-IMS identity and supplied 2.8 mm fixed lens; these choices are not motorized zoom.
• ISD confirms supply, stock, price, lead time, local warranty and package contents separately.
• Match the exact camera, recorder, firmware, stream settings and codecs; named protocols do not guarantee arbitrary-device compatibility.
• Recording modes depend on 50 Hz or 60 Hz selection; higher frame rates may require a lower resolution.
• DORI, illumination and human/vehicle event references depend on the scene and configuration, not guaranteed field-performance distances.
• Optional mounts and memory cards are not included package contents. Confirm mounting method, adapters and fitted card.
• Confirm the required environmental limits, mounting dimensions and exact supplied unit before selecting a housing or location.
• Third-stream prerequisite settings are not fully defined in the cited document; confirm them before relying on a third stream.
• HDMI display-output modes are separate from camera capture resolution and network recording frame rates. Do not assume a 4K HDMI output.
• The cited impact rating does not establish an ingress-protection rating or outdoor suitability. Confirm protection for the intended environment.
