Hikvision DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) 4MP Network IR Speed Dome

The Hikvision DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) delivers professional-grade surveillance capabilities with its advanced 4MP imaging system and 25x optical zoom. This network IR speed dome combines precise positioning with exceptional image clarity, making it suitable for extensive coverage of large areas.

Crystal-Clear 4MP Imaging Technology

The DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) features a 1/1.8″ progressive scan CMOS sensor that captures 4MP resolution video (2560 × 1440). As a result, the camera delivers remarkably detailed footage even in challenging lighting conditions. Additionally, the camera supports H.265+ video compression technology, which significantly reduces bandwidth and storage requirements without compromising image quality.

Powerful 25× Optical Zoom Capability

Equipped with a 25× optical zoom lens, the DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) allows operators to focus on distant subjects with exceptional clarity. The focal length ranges from 4.8mm to 120mm, providing both wide-angle views and detailed close-ups of specific areas. Furthermore, the precise motor control enables smooth zooming transitions without loss of target tracking.

Intelligent Positioning System

The DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) features:

• 360° endless pan range with speeds up to 240°/s
• -15° to 90° tilt capability for comprehensive coverage
• 300 preset positions for rapid response to events
• 8 patrol scanning modes with configurable dwell times
• 4 pattern scans with automatic movement recording

This versatile positioning system enables the DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) to monitor expansive areas with minimal blind spots. Moreover, the preset position accuracy reaches ±0.1°, ensuring reliable surveillance of critical points.

Enhanced Low-Light Performance

The DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) excels in challenging lighting environments thanks to:

• Up to 150m IR range for night monitoring
• True WDR (120dB) to balance bright and dark areas simultaneously
• 3D DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) for cleaner low-light imagery
• Smart IR technology that adjusts intensity based on zoom level

Consequently, the camera maintains color images down to 0.005 Lux and can continue monitoring in complete darkness using its integrated IR illuminators.

Intelligent Video Analysis

The DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) incorporates advanced analytics to transform surveillance from passive recording to proactive detection:

• Intrusion detection identifies unauthorized entry into defined areas
• Line crossing detection triggers alerts when objects cross virtual boundaries
• Object removal/abandonment detection monitors for suspicious activities
• Face detection capabilities for additional security applications

These intelligent features enable the DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) to filter out irrelevant motion while alerting operators to genuine security concerns.

Robust Environmental Adaptability

Built for continuous operation in various environments, the DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) features:

• IP66 weatherproof rating for outdoor installation
• IK10 vandal-resistant housing
• Operating temperature range from -30°C to 65°C
• Built-in heater and fan for climate control
• TVS 6000V lightning protection and surge prevention

Therefore, the DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) remains reliable in harsh weather conditions without requiring additional protective enclosures.

Versatile Network Integration

The DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) supports:

• ONVIF compliance for third-party system integration
• Multiple simultaneous video streams
• Power over Ethernet (Hi-PoE) for simplified installation
• Audio input/output for two-way communication
• Alarm I/O connections for sensor integration

These integration capabilities make the DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) adaptable to existing security infrastructures while providing expansion options for future system growth.

Ideal Applications

The Hikvision DS-2DE5425IW-AE (C) is particularly suited for:

• Perimeter security professionals: The 25× zoom combined with 150m IR range enables monitoring of extensive property boundaries with fewer cameras
• Critical infrastructure managers: IP66/IK10 ratings and extreme temperature tolerance make it reliable for protecting essential facilities
• Urban surveillance operators: 4MP resolution provides the detail needed for identifying incidents in city-wide deployments
• Transportation security teams: Fast pan/tilt speeds (240°/s) allow tracking of rapidly moving objects across terminals or stations
• Retail and campus security directors: Smart features like intrusion detection reduce false alarms while improving threat recognition
