Hikvision DS-2CD2327G1-LU 2MP ColorVu Fixed Turret IP Camera

Advanced Color Imaging in All Light Conditions

The DS-2CD2327G1-LU represents Hikvision’s innovative approach to surveillance technology with its ColorVu capabilities. This fixed turret IP camera delivers full-color imaging even in extremely low-light environments. Unlike conventional cameras that switch to black and white mode in darkness, the DS-2CD2327G1-LU maintains vibrant color reproduction around the clock.

Superior Optics and Imaging Performance

The DS-2CD2327G1-LU features a premium 2 megapixel progressive scan CMOS sensor paired with an F1.0 large aperture lens. This combination allows for:

• Exceptional light gathering capability
• Crisp 1920 × 1080 resolution at 30fps
• Wide 106° diagonal field of view
• Minimum illumination of 0.0005 Lux in color mode

Additionally, the camera incorporates supplemental lighting through a built-in warm light that activates automatically in extreme darkness. This ensures the DS-2CD2327G1-LU can capture detailed color footage regardless of ambient lighting conditions.

Enhanced Network Security

The DS-2CD2327G1-LU incorporates Hikvision’s comprehensive security measures to protect your surveillance system:

• Password protection with security level indication
• HTTPS encryption for secure data transmission
• IP address filtering to prevent unauthorized access
• IEEE 802.1x network authentication
• User authentication through secure credentials

These protections ensure the DS-2CD2327G1-LU remains secure against potential cyber threats while maintaining system integrity.

Intelligent Video Content Analysis

The DS-2CD2327G1-LU comes equipped with smart event detection capabilities including:

• Line crossing detection for virtual perimeter protection
• Intrusion detection covering pre-defined areas
• Motion detection with adjustable sensitivity
• Dynamic video analysis to reduce false alarms
• Region of interest encoding for bandwidth efficiency

Furthermore, the DS-2CD2327G1-LU supports two-way audio communication through its built-in microphone and audio output interface, enhancing situational awareness.

Robust Environmental Adaptability

Built to withstand challenging conditions, the DS-2CD2327G1-LU features:

• IP67 weatherproof rating for outdoor installation
• IK10 vandal-resistant housing for physical protection
• Operating temperature range from -30°C to 60°C (-22°F to 140°F)
• Built-in heater for cold weather operation
• Corrosion-resistant metal construction

Ideal Users for the DS-2CD2327G1-LU

• Property managers overseeing outdoor spaces – The IP67 weatherproofing and IK10 vandal resistance make the DS-2CD2327G1-LU perfect for monitoring exterior locations in any climate.
• Retail business owners requiring 24-hour surveillance – With ColorVu technology providing full-color imaging even at night, the DS-2CD2327G1-LU delivers identifiable footage regardless of time.
• Security professionals monitoring low-light areas – The F1.0 large aperture and 0.0005 Lux color sensitivity offer superior performance in dimly lit environments without requiring additional lighting.
• Homeowners seeking reliable perimeter protection – Intelligent line crossing and intrusion detection features of the DS-2CD2327G1-LU provide automated alerts when boundaries are breached.
• Small business owners with limited bandwidth – H.265+ compression technology in the DS-2CD2327G1-LU reduces storage requirements by up to 80% compared to standard H.264 encoding.
