Hikvision DS-2DE2C400IWG-K/4G/C05S10 4MP Pro Solar-Powered Security PT Camera

The Hikvision DS-2DE2C400IWG-K/4G/C05S10 is an advanced solar-powered PT (Pan-Tilt) security camera designed for reliable outdoor surveillance in areas with limited access to traditional power sources. Equipped with 4MP resolution, solar battery technology, and intelligent detection features, this camera provides high-quality monitoring, remote access, and long-lasting operation. It is ideal for locations such as farms, construction sites, parks, and remote facilities.

Image Sensor & Video Quality

The camera features a 1/2.7″ Progressive Scan CMOS sensor, delivering 2560 × 1440 (4MP) resolution for sharp, detailed video. It operates effectively in low-light conditions with a minimum illumination of 0.005 Lux in color at F1.6 and 0 Lux in black and white with IR.

The shutter time ranges from 1/3 s to 1/100,000 s, allowing precise exposure control under varying lighting. Its IR cut filter ensures accurate color reproduction during the day while seamlessly switching to night mode for infrared monitoring.

Lens & Field of View

The DS-2DE2C400IWG-K offers fixed focal lens options of 2.8 mm and 4 mm:

• 2.8 mm lens: Horizontal FOV: 94°, Vertical FOV: 49°, Diagonal FOV: 114°
• 4 mm lens: Horizontal FOV: 70°, Vertical FOV: 35°, Diagonal FOV: 85°

The M12 lens mount allows for easy installation and optional upgrades. The aperture is F1.6, and the iris type is fixed, ensuring consistent clarity across the field of view.

Pan-Tilt (PT) Features

This camera supports pan and tilt movement for broad coverage:

• Pan range: 0°–340° at speeds up to 25°/s
• Tilt range: 0°–80° at speeds up to 25°/s

These PT capabilities, combined with optional lens choices, allow flexible monitoring of large areas. The DORI (Detect, Observe, Recognize, Identify) distances are:

• 2.8 mm: D: 68 m, O: 27 m, R: 13 m, I: 6 m
• 4 mm: D: 100 m, O: 39 m, R: 20 m, I: 10 m

Illuminator & Night Vision

The camera features IR illumination up to 30 meters with smart IR adjustment, providing clear images at night while preventing overexposure. The IR wavelength is 850 nm, offering high-contrast night-time monitoring.

Video & Compression

The DS-2DE2C400IWG-K supports multiple streams:

• Main Stream: Up to 2560 × 1440 @ 12.5/15 fps (50/60 Hz)
• Sub-Stream: Up to 1280 × 720 or lower

It supports H.264 and H.265 compression, with CBR/VBR bit rate control, ensuring efficient storage and smooth transmission. Additional video features include Digital WDR, BLC, HLC, and 3D DNR for enhanced image quality in varying lighting.

Audio

This camera supports mono audio via a built-in microphone and speaker:

• Audio Compression: G.722.1, G.711, MP2L2, PCM, G.726, AAC-LC
• Noise filtering ensures clear communication
• Speaker: Max power 1.5 W, sound pressure 95 dB at 10 cm

These features enable two-way audio alerts and monitoring.

Network & Connectivity

The camera is compatible with ONVIF (Profile S/G/T), ISAPI, and SDK for seamless integration. It supports LTE-FDD, LTE-TDD, and UMTS mobile networks, with Nano SIM slot for cellular connectivity. Multiple client platforms are supported: Hik-Connect, HikCentral Professional, and web browsers.

Smart Detection & Event Management

Equipped with PIR + Radar transducers, the camera detects motion across 80° horizontal and 30° vertical angles, up to 12 meters. Events include:

• Motion detection (human/vehicle)
• Video tampering alarm
• Exception notifications

Linkage actions include uploading to memory cards, triggering recordings, audible warnings, and notifications to the monitoring center.

Power & Battery

This camera is powered by a solar panel system with a ternary lithium battery:

• Battery capacity: 50.76 Wh
• Battery voltage: 9–12.6 V
• Full charge runtime without solar input: 27 hours at 1.85 W
• Battery life: Over 800 cycles

The camera consumes 1.85 W typically, max 7 W, with solar panels rated at 10 W. Power supply uses four-core aviation connectors.

Construction & Environmental Performance

Constructed from plastic, the camera is durable yet lightweight (approx. 850 g). It is IP66-rated for protection against dust and water. Operational temperature: 0°C–50°C, with battery charging: 0°C–45°C and discharging: -20°C–55°C.

Storage & Interface

Supports microSD/microSDHC/microSDXC cards up to 512 GB. The Ethernet port is RJ45 10/100 M self-adaptive. The camera also includes reset key and on-board controls.

Conclusion

The Hikvision DS-2DE2C400IWG-K/4G/C05S10 offers a solar-powered, high-resolution PT camera solution ideal for remote locations. With 4MP imaging, PT capabilities, smart detection, two-way audio, and solar autonomy, it provides reliable, long-term surveillance without dependency on external power, making it perfect for security in off-grid and challenging environments.
