Technical Specifications

Applications & Use Cases

Warehouse and Factory: In industrial zones like Jurong, this camera is ideal for monitoring loading docks and sensitive inventory areas. Its high resolution ensures that items being moved can be identified, while the smart motion detection alerts staff to unauthorized entry without generating noise from swaying curtains or machinery.

Retail Stores: For shop owners, this camera helps prevent shoplifting and monitor employee conduct. The wide dynamic range allows for clear footage even when bright sunlight streams through the front door, preventing the “blackout” effect often seen in lower-end security cameras.

HDB and Condo: Many Homeowners Association (HOA) committees in Singapore utilize this camera for lobby and car park coverage. Its sleek dome design blends well with modern aesthetics, and its weatherproofing ensures it survives the heavy monsoon rains common in local high-rises.

Office Buildings: Corporate security teams use this unit to monitor building entrances and perimeter fencing. The two-way audio feature allows receptionists to screen visitors before they are granted access, enhancing the overall security posture of a commercial estate.

Car Parks: Installation in multi-story car parks is highly effective. The camera can track vehicles entering and exiting, providing clear visual evidence in case of parking disputes or theft incidents. The infrared night vision ensures that the car park remains secured even after sunset.

Why Choose the DS-2CD2163G2-LI-S–2U- for Singapore

Choosing this camera for your Singapore property means choosing reliability in a harsh environment. The tropical climate brings high humidity and sudden heavy rainstorms, which can cause damage to inferior electronics. This unit is rated IP67, a critical specification for outdoor use in Singapore where dust and water are constant factors. Furthermore, the camera operates on 12V DC or PoE, which is standard for Singaporean electrical infrastructure, ensuring compatibility with local power grids. We also ensure that all our systems are designed to comply with the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA), ensuring that the footage you capture is handled responsibly and legally. For businesses in Singapore, downtime is costly; this camera is built for 24/7 reliability, minimizing the risk of failure that could compromise your safety network.

Installation Guide

Installing the Hikvision DS-2CD2163G2-LI-S–2U- is straightforward, provided you have the correct tools and power source. You can power the camera either via Power over Ethernet (PoE) using a compatible switch or injector, or by connecting a 12V DC adapter to the barrel jack. If you choose PoE, ensure your switch supports the 802.3af standard to deliver sufficient wattage. Connect the Ethernet cable from the camera to your NVR or network switch, ensuring the cable is rated for outdoor use if running through walls or conduits. Once powered on, the camera will boot up. You will need to add the camera to your Hikvision NVR using the serial number or IP configuration tools. For remote monitoring, download the Hik-Connect app or DMSS app on your smartphone. Create an account and scan the camera’s QR code to link it instantly to your personal dashboard.

Repair and Maintenance

Maintaining your Hikvision camera ensures it continues to provide clear footage for years. A key part of maintenance is cleaning the lens cover. Dust or fingerprints on the glass can obscure the image, reducing the effectiveness of the infrared light at night. We recommend wiping the lens gently with a microfiber cloth every two weeks. Another common issue is a frozen lens heater. In Singapore, this is less common due to the lack of freezing temperatures, but if you have a unit used in a cold storage facility, ensure the heater is functional. If the camera fails to connect to the network, check the Ethernet cable and switch port. Regularly check the firmware version through the Hik-Connect app or web interface, as Hikvision frequently releases updates that improve smart detection algorithms and security patches.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the exact resolution of this camera?

The Hikvision DS-2CD2163G2-LI-S–2U- features a 6-megapixel resolution. This is significantly higher than standard 2MP cameras, allowing for much greater detail in every frame. This means you can digitally zoom in on the footage to identify license plates or faces without losing clarity. It is the industry standard for high-security zones in Singapore.

Can I use this camera indoors and outdoors?

Yes, the camera is rated IP67, which means it is dust-tight and protected against the entry of water. This makes it fully suitable for outdoor installation on facades or under eaves, as well as indoor use in lobbies or corridors. It is designed to handle the tropical weather conditions found throughout Singapore year-round.

How far can the night vision reach?

The integrated infrared illuminator provides a clear night vision range of up to 30 meters. This ensures that security personnel can monitor the perimeter effectively even in complete darkness. It is an excellent feature for long driveways, warehouse perimeters, and large open spaces common in industrial areas.

Does the camera support two-way audio?

Absolutely, the camera is equipped with a built-in microphone and speaker. This allows you to speak through the camera, for example, to warn an intruder or to greet visitors remotely. The audio is recorded alongside the video stream, providing a complete record of the event for your security files.

What kind of cable do I need for installation?

You will need a standard Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable for data transmission. It is highly recommended to use outdoor-rated cables (often called outdoor Ethernet or CAT6e) if the cable is running outside, to prevent signal degradation from moisture or sunlight. These cables are readily available locally in Singapore.

Is the camera compatible with Hikvision NVRs?

Yes, this camera is natively compatible with all Hikvision Digital Video Recorders (NVRs) that support H.265 compression. It offers seamless integration, allowing you to utilize features like smart analytics and alarm inputs without needing third-party software. It also works with non-Hikvision NVRs using ONVIF protocol.

What is the warranty period?

The unit typically comes with a standard warranty provided by Hikvision, though the exact duration may vary by local distributor policies. At SGCCTV, we ensure we honor the manufacturer’s warranty and often provide extended support packages. Always check the specific warranty card that comes with the unit upon delivery.

How does the Acusense technology work?

Acusense uses advanced computer vision algorithms to distinguish between humans, animals, and other objects. It filters out noise from rain, shadows, or leaves. This reduces false alarms significantly, meaning your security guards only receive alerts when there is a genuine person or vehicle detected, optimizing their time and efficiency.

Can I view the camera on my phone?

Yes, you can view live feeds and playback on your smartphone using the Hik-Connect app or the newer DMSS app. These apps are free to download for both Android and iOS. You can set up alerts so you are notified immediately when motion is detected at your property.

How do I update the camera firmware?

Firmware updates are usually performed via the Hikvision NVR or the Hik-Connect app. However, you can also update it via the web interface by entering the camera’s IP address into a browser. You download the firmware file from the Hikvision website and follow the upload prompts. Always read the release notes to ensure new features or bug fixes are included.
