High-detail ColourVu camera with Smart Hybrid Light and intelligent analytics. The DS-2CD2047G2H-LI-4mm is a 4-megapixel fixed-lens mini bullet camera offering excellent low-light colour performance, smart IR/white-light hybrid illumination and efficient H.265+ compression — designed for professional perimeter and area surveillance.
Key benefits
-
4 MP resolution (2688 × 1520): Crisp detail for identification and evidence.
-
4 mm fixed focal lens — wide field of view: Horizontal FOV ≈ 89.2° (good for entrances, walkways and yard coverage).
-
Smart Hybrid Light (ColourVu): Hybrid IR + white-light ensures usable colour footage at night and clear mono/night images when needed. Up to 40 m effective illumination in typical conditions.
-
Excellent HDR/WDR & compression: 130 dB WDR handles strong backlight; H.265+ keeps storage and bandwidth efficient.
-
Rugged & network-ready: PoE support, 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, microSD storage support and IP67 ingress protection for outdoor use.

Where this camera works best
- Perimeter walls, driveways and compound entrances where wide field coverage and night-time colour are required.
- Retail forecourts, small car parks and building perimeters needing reliable detection with low false alarms.
- Sites where efficient storage and bandwidth are important — H.265+ and on-board SD support reduce NVR load and costs.
Installation & setup tips
- Mount at 2.5–4.5 m depending on the scene — for general entrances 3–3.5 m is a good start.
- Use PoE for a single-cable power+data run; set the camera to the correct exposure mode to avoid strong backlight issues (WDR ON).
- For colour at night, enable the white-light mode in low-light zones; otherwise leave in IR/auto-hybrid to minimise visible illumination.
- Enable H.265+ on the camera and compatible NVR for the best storage efficiency without losing quality.
Frequently asked questions
Is this description definitely for the 4mm model only?
Yes — all technical details above reference the DS-2CD2047G2H-LI with the 4 mm fixed lens specification and verified reseller datasheets. No LIU variant features are included.
Can I expect full-colour night shots with this camera?
Yes — the Smart Hybrid Light + ColourVu technology provides good colour imaging at night when the white-light is activated; otherwise the IR mode provides monochrome illumination. Actual results depend on scene lighting and installation distance.
