IP security camera Hikvision DS-2CD2726G2-IZS 1920 x 1080

The Hikvision DS-2CD2726G2-IZS is an outdoor IP security camera with a 1920 x 1080 resolution that combines a dome form factor with flexible mounting options. Designed for wired network deployment, the camera accepts ceiling or wall installation and provides a wide horizontal field of view supported by a 2.8–12 mm varifocal lens. A CMOS image sensor and a low minimum illumination of 0.002 lx enable clear image capture in low-light conditions, while a 355° rotation capability delivers broad scene coverage for perimeter and area surveillance.

Advantages

This model offers full HD resolution at up to 30 fps, ensuring smooth video capture for common security monitoring tasks. The varifocal lens with a 113° horizontal viewing angle at the wide end and long focal range allows tailored framing and zooming without changing optics. Outdoor-rated placement and a wired Ethernet interface provide stable network connectivity and continuous power options where PoE is available. Motion detection functionality supports event-driven recording and integration with network video recorders or security management systems.

Suitable for

• Perimeter surveillance of residential or small commercial properties
