Hikvision 180 - ColorVu 3K Panoramic Bullet Camera with 40m Hybrid Light and Built-in Microphone

The Hikvision DS-2CE12KF3TP-DLS 180 is a high-resolution 3K panoramic bullet camera delivering 180-degree wide-angle coverage from a single unit. Powered by ColorVu technology with 40m hybrid light illumination and a built-in microphone, it replaces multiple cameras in open areas, wide entrances, and large outdoor spaces - requires a Hikvision HQHI or XT series DVR for full 3K panoramic functionality.

Why This Camera Stands Out

• 180-Degree Panoramic Coverage - A single camera eliminates the gaps that standard cameras leave in open spaces and wide entrances, replacing two or three conventional cameras from one mounting point.
• 3K ColorVu Resolution - High-resolution colour night vision via white light illumination delivers detailed imagery across the full 180-degree field after dark.
• Built-in Microphone - Captures on-site audio across the full panoramic coverage zone for a more complete record of any incident.

Key Features

• 3K resolution (approximately 5MP) with ColorVu colour night vision
• 180-degree panoramic wide-angle lens
• 40m hybrid light illumination (IR + white light)
• Built-in microphone for audio recording
• Requires Hikvision HQHI or XT series DVR
• Supports AHD, TVI, CVI, and CVBS output
• IP67 weatherproof rating
• 12VDC power supply

Why You'll Love It

Wide entrances, open yards, shop floors, and parking areas all share the same problem - no single standard camera covers them without leaving blind spots. The DS-2CE12KF3TP-DLS 180 solves it with a single panoramic unit that sees everything in 3K colour. Fewer cameras, no gaps, full-colour night vision - the simplest way to eliminate blind spots from your security plan.

FAQ

Why does this camera require an HQHI or XT series DVR?
The 3K panoramic resolution requires a DVR capable of processing the higher bandwidth. Standard entry-level DVRs may not support the full 3K panoramic output. Contact us at support@apextradedynamics.co.za to confirm DVR compatibility.

How does 180-degree panoramic coverage compare to a standard wide-angle camera?
A standard 2.8mm lens covers approximately 95-100 degrees horizontally. This panoramic lens covers 180 degrees - nearly double - in a single frame, effectively replacing two side-by-side cameras with no gap between them.

What is the recommended mounting position for a 180-degree camera?
Mount directly above the area to cover - above a doorway, gate, or entrance - angled downward at approximately 45-60 degrees to maximise the panoramic spread across the scene. View all FAQs.
