Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2-LSU/SL 8 MP ColorVu Active-Deterrence Camera
“`
What if your camera could do more than record an intruder after the incident?
The Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2-LSU/SL combines detailed 8 MP video, 24/7 color
imaging and intelligent human and vehicle classification with an active strobe
light and audible warning.
Instead of leaving you with dark footage, constant irrelevant alerts or a
camera that only observes, this model helps you see important details, identify
relevant activity and respond while the event is occurring.
With two-way audio, local memory-card storage, PoE connectivity and an IP67-rated
metal enclosure, it gives you a more complete security tool for both indoor and
outdoor areas.

Why Buyers Choose This Model
“`
When activity happens at night, would you rather receive ordinary black-and-white
footage or see the colors and details that may help you understand what actually
occurred?
Buyers choose this model because it combines high-resolution evidence, full-color
nighttime imaging, intelligent alerts and active warning features in one camera.
It is designed not only to document activity, but also to help you recognize
relevant threats sooner and communicate or respond in real time.
- See detailed 8 MP video during live viewing and recorded playback.
- Capture full-color images during the day and at night.
- Focus alerts on human and vehicle targets instead of treating every movement equally.
- Use light and sound to warn a potential intruder that the property is being monitored.
- Listen and speak through the camera using its built-in microphone and speaker.
- Install it indoors or outdoors with IP67 water and dust resistance.

Features That Deliver Practical Benefits
“`
8 MP Resolution — Capture More Useful Detail
The camera records at up to 3840 × 2160 resolution. This gives you a more
detailed image when reviewing people, vehicles and activity around your property.
24/7 ColorVu Imaging — See Color Around the Clock
Its F1.0 aperture and high-performance 1/1.2-inch sensor collect more available
light to produce bright, full-color images. When there is no usable ambient light,
the integrated white light allows the camera to continue producing color video.
White Light up to 30 Meters — Illuminate Dark Areas
The built-in supplemental light reaches up to 30 meters, or approximately
98 feet. Smart Supplement Light helps the camera manage illumination so important
nighttime activity remains visible.
Human and Vehicle Classification — Receive More Relevant Alerts
Deep-learning analytics allow supported motion, line-crossing, intrusion,
region-entrance and region-exit events to focus on specified human and vehicle
targets. This helps reduce the time spent checking movement that is unrelated
to a person or vehicle.
Active Strobe and Audible Warning — Respond Before the Event Is Over
Once configured with supported detection events, the camera can use its strobe
light and audible warning to alert a potential intruder that the property is
being monitored. That gives your security system an active response capability
instead of relying solely on recorded evidence.
Built-In Two-Way Audio — See, Hear and Communicate
A built-in microphone captures sound, while the integrated 1.5 W speaker supports
real-time communication. You can address a visitor, provide instructions or make
your presence known without needing to be physically outside.
130 dB WDR — Maintain Visibility in Difficult Lighting
Strong backlighting can leave part of an ordinary camera image too bright or too
dark. The camera’s 130 dB Wide Dynamic Range helps preserve visibility when
shadows and bright light appear in the same scene.
2.8 mm or 4 mm Lens — Match the View to the Area
Choose the 2.8 mm lens for a wider 102° horizontal view or the 4 mm lens for a
narrower 88° horizontal view. This allows the camera to fit different monitoring
needs, from wider entrances to more concentrated viewing areas.
Local Storage up to 512 GB — Add Recording at the Camera
The built-in card slot supports microSD, microSDHC, microSDXC and TF cards with
capacities up to 512 GB. This gives you an additional local recording option and
supports automatic network replenishment when used with compatible network storage.
H.265+ Compression — Use Storage More Efficiently
Efficient H.265+ compression helps reduce the bandwidth and storage required for
high-resolution video, making it easier to retain detailed footage without relying
exclusively on older compression formats.
PoE Connectivity — Simplify Camera Installation
IEEE 802.3af PoE allows compatible equipment to deliver power and network
connectivity through the Ethernet connection. The camera can also operate from
a separate 12 VDC power supply when required.
IP67 Metal Enclosure — Built for Indoor or Outdoor Areas
The metal camera body is rated IP67 for water and dust resistance and operates
from -30°C to 60°C (-22°F to 140°F). This allows you to monitor exposed outdoor
locations as well as protected indoor areas.
Flexible Event Responses — Decide What Happens After Detection
Supported linkage actions include triggering recording and image capture,
sending email, notifying a surveillance center and uploading files to a memory
card, NAS or FTP destination. This helps turn detected activity into a documented,
reviewable event.
Hik-Connect Support — Access Your Security Remotely
The camera supports Hik-Connect, iVMS-4200 and HikCentral, giving you compatible
options for viewing and managing the camera without remaining in front of the
local recorder.

What This Helps You Avoid
“`
Imagine checking an alert late at night only to discover that the camera recorded
movement without enough color or detail to explain what happened. Or imagine
repeatedly checking alarms that were caused by activity unrelated to a person or
vehicle.
A basic camera may leave you reviewing unclear footage after the event has already
ended. The DS-2CD2387G2-LSU/SL addresses that problem by combining full-color
nighttime imaging, 8 MP detail and target classification with active light, sound
and two-way communication.
- Dark nighttime footage that hides useful color information.
- Missing detail because the camera resolution is too limited.
- Treating every type of motion as equally important.
- Only discovering suspicious activity after reviewing recorded video.
- Being unable to speak through the camera when immediate communication is needed.
- Losing visibility when bright and dark areas appear in the same scene.
- Depending on only one recording destination when local card storage is required.
If your current camera only shows you that something moved, how much more useful
would it be to see clearer color detail, determine whether the target was a person
or vehicle, and have the option to respond while the activity is still happening?
