HIKVISION DS-2CD2T43G2-4LI (4 MP/2.8 MM) - PoE IP CAMERA WITH 80 M ILLUMINATION
Description Hikvision DS-2CD2T43G2-4LI
80 meters of effective illumination — two to three times a typical camera
DS-2CD2T43G2-4LI stands out with illumination reaching an effective distance of 80 m — where most cameras in the lineup are limited to 30 m, this model can light up and capture detail at a much greater distance from the mounting point.
Where this camera is actually used
A massive metal bullet housing weighing 1.2 kg and almost 29 cm long, with an IP67 rating, is built for extended perimeters — a long fence around a private property, a driveway, or an industrial site's boundary where you need to see far, not just nearby.
What problem this camera actually solves
On large open properties, ordinary 30 m illumination leaves a significant part of the perimeter dark beyond its effective distance. DS-2CD2T43G2-4LI solves this with stronger optics and illumination capable of lighting up a target at a distance unreachable for standard models in the same class.
4 MP with object recognition at distance
A 104° field of view pairs with classification that separately flags a person and a vehicle even at a considerable distance from the camera — alerts fire for genuine events across the entire perimeter length.
PoE, a Wi-Fi channel, and a 512 GB SD card
PoE 802.3af power (11 W) — higher power reflects the energy demands of strong illumination. A Wi-Fi channel provides a backup communication method, and microSD support up to 512 GB allows a long local archive.
ISUP and extended protocols
Besides standard ONVIF, the camera supports the proprietary ISUP protocol for integration with Hikvision's cloud services and an SDK for custom integrations — flexibility for more complex perimeter systems.
When it's worth paying for this range
If the typical observation distance at your site doesn't exceed 15-20 m, this model would be overkill — paying extra for 80 m illumination is justified specifically for extended, open perimeters.
Stable year-round operation in a demanding climate
A -30°C to +60°C operating range confirms readiness for year-round outdoor use even in a region with sharp seasonal swings — an important factor for a perimeter where winter service access can be difficult.
A massive housing as a practical, not just aesthetic, factor
The 1.2 kg weight and nearly 29 cm length reflect the real components inside — stronger illumination and reinforced optics, not just a bigger housing for show. When mounting, plan for a sturdier bracket capable of handling this weight under wind load.
One camera instead of several ordinary ones on a long perimeter
Thanks to the extended range, one such camera can cover a stretch that would otherwise need two or three ordinary cameras with 30 m illumination — simplifying installation, cable runs, and ongoing perimeter maintenance.
Who this model is for
DS-2CD2T43G2-4LI is the pick for an owner of an extended perimeter who needs detail and object recognition at a considerable distance from the mounting point.
