IP security camera Hikvision Pro Series 4 MP Smart Hybrid Light ColorVu fixed bullet, 1/1.8 inch CMOS, 111.1° H, 30 fps, wired, indoor/outdoor

Hikvision Pro Series 4 MP Smart Hybrid Light with ColorVu fixed bullet network camera combines daytime-style colour imaging with configurable IR and white-light illumination for round-the-clock monitoring. Designed for indoor and outdoor use, the camera offers a 4 MP (2688 × 1520) CMOS sensor, wired Ethernet connectivity and a bullet form factor with wall or pole mounting. Its corrosion-resistant housing (NEMA4X-like) and IP67 rating make it suitable for exposed installations.

Advantages

The camera uses HikAI-ISP processing for improved noise reduction and scene-adaptive WDR to retain detail in mixed lighting. ColorVu provides colourful images at night while the Smart Hybrid Light integrates IR and white lights with three supplemental lighting modes. Built-in two-way audio and an arrayed dual-microphone allow real-time audio monitoring, and AcuSense-based person and vehicle classification reduces false alarms. Active strobe and audio alarm functions offer visual and audible deterrence.

Suitable for

• Perimeter and entrance surveillance at commercial or residential properties
• Outdoor monitoring where continuous colour detail is required, such as parking areas or loading bays
• Indoor areas requiring vandal-resistant, weatherproof cameras with audio capability

When it may not be suitable

This wired camera requires Ethernet connectivity and is not intended for Wi‑Fi deployments. It is a fixed bullet device with a set field of view, so applications needing frequent pan/tilt/zoom control or very long-range recognition beyond the specified distances may require a PTZ or higher-resolution camera.

Key specifications

• Frame rate: up to 30 fps
• Lens horizontal view angle: 111.1°, vertical: 57.6°
• Detection/observation/recognition ranges: detect ~61 m, observe ~24 m, recognize ~12 m
• Illumination: Smart Hybrid Light (IR + white light), ColorVu for full‑colour night imaging, night vision up to 60 m with IR/white support
• Audio: built-in arrayed dual-microphone and two-way audio
• Connectivity: wired Ethernet LAN
• Ingress protection: IP67; corrosion-resistant housing (NEMA4X-style)
• Mounting: wall or pole
• Colour: black
• Weight: 1.25 kg

How to use

Mount the camera on a wall or pole using compatible brackets, aim the fixed lens to cover the intended area and connect it to a PoE-capable Ethernet switch or injector for power and network. Configure basic settings via the camera web interface or management software: set exposure, WDR and ColorVu modes, enable person/vehicle classification and adjust supplemental lighting modes. Test two-way audio and alarm outputs and calibrate detection zones to match the monitored scene.

What to consider before purchase

• Requires wired Ethernet (PoE recommended) — not suitable for wireless-only sites
• Fixed lens — confirm the horizontal/vertical viewing angles meet coverage needs
• Check required night-range and recognition distances against site layout
• Ensure mounting surface and environment are compatible with an IP67-rated bullet camera

Recommendations

For reliable daytime-style colour at night, position the camera so the Smart Hybrid Light does not illuminate reflective surfaces directly. Use person/vehicle classification and adjusted detection zones to reduce false alerts, and connect via PoE to simplify installation and ensure stable power and network connectivity.
