The Hikvision DS-2CD2T46G1-4I/SL is a professional-grade 4 MP AcuSense fixed bullet network camera, purpose-built for proactive surveillance with its integrated strobe light and audible warning system. Though now discontinued, it remains a powerful choice for legacy installations and replacements where high performance in low light, deep learning analytics, and durable construction are essential.
Built with Hikvision’s DarkFighter technology, this camera delivers excellent image quality in low-light environments and uses 120 dB true WDR to manage challenging lighting scenarios. Human and vehicle target classification via deep learning significantly reduces false alarms, ensuring smarter detection and response.
The rugged full-metal IP66-rated housing makes this model ideal for demanding outdoor environments, while an 80 m IR range ensures long-distance visibility at night. Whether securing perimeters, car parks, or building exteriors, the DS-2CD2T46G1-4I/SL is a reliable and feature-rich surveillance solution.
