Hikvision Ultra Series 4MP PTZ, 25x optical zoom, 400m IR, 140dB WDR, Smart tracking, 24VAC/Hi-POE

★★★★★ "The 400m IR range and smart auto-tracking means we monitor the full estate perimeter from three cameras - it's incredible technology." - Gerhard V., Centurion

Hikvision Ultra Series 4MP PTZ Camera with 25x Optical Zoom, 400m IR and Smart Auto-Tracking

The Hikvision DS-2DF8425IXG1-ELW is an Ultra Series 4MP PTZ camera combining 25x optical zoom with 400m infrared illumination and intelligent auto-tracking. Designed for large-scale perimeter security, estate monitoring, and critical infrastructure protection, it detects, follows, and records threats automatically across very large areas - compatible with Hikvision NVR and VMS platforms. Requires 24VAC or Hi-PoE power.

Why This Camera Stands Out

• 400m IR Night Vision Range - Exceptional infrared illumination range delivers clear 4MP footage across vast open areas at night - four times the range of standard PTZ cameras.
• Intelligent Auto-Tracking - Deep learning auto-tracking detects and follows moving subjects across the PTZ's full field of motion automatically, keeping threats in frame without operator intervention.
• 25x Optical Zoom - Read licence plates and identify faces at extended distances with high-resolution 4MP optical zoom that maintains image quality throughout the zoom range.

Why You'll Love It

The DS-2DF8425IXG1-ELW is what serious perimeter security looks like. 400m of infrared reach, auto-tracking that follows threats without operator input, and 4MP optical zoom that captures detail across a full estate. It doesn't just watch - it responds. For large properties where every second counts, this is the PTZ that delivers.

FAQ

What does intelligent auto-tracking mean in practice?
When the camera detects a moving subject (human or vehicle) within its field of view, it automatically pans and tilts to keep that subject centred in the frame as it moves. This happens without any operator input - the camera follows the threat automatically until it leaves the field of view or the operator overrides manually.

Does this camera require Hi-PoE or can it use standard PoE?
This camera requires Hi-PoE (60W) or 24VAC power due to its high-performance motor and illumination systems. Standard PoE (15.4W) is insufficient. A Hi-PoE switch or injector, or a 24VAC power supply, is required.

How many PTZ cameras are needed to cover a typical large estate?
With 400m IR range and 360-degree rotation, a single DS-2DF8425IXG1-ELW can cover a very large area. For a typical residential estate, 2-4 units positioned at strategic vantage points can provide comprehensive perimeter coverage. Contact us for a site-specific assessment. View all FAQs.
