The HikVision DS-2CE18D0T-LFS is a 2MP Smart Hybrid Light audio fixed bullet camera designed for clear day and night monitoring in homes, shops, offices, warehouses, and other compatible surveillance installations. Its CMOS image sensor records Full HD 1920 × 1080 video. The fixed 3.6 mm lens uses an M12 mount and provides a listed horizontal field of view of 78 degrees, with vertical and diagonal fields of view of 42 and 92 degrees. This lens configuration suits focused monitoring of entrances, lanes, rooms, and other areas where the scene can be planned around a fixed camera position. Smart Hybrid Light supports Smart, infrared, and white-light modes. The specified supplemental-light range reaches up to 60 metres for both infrared and white light, giving installers options for night-time scenes and visible colour illumination. A built-in microphone supports audio capture over compatible coaxial cabling, reducing the need for a separate audio cable when the recorder supports the feature. Video output is switchable among TVI, AHD, CVI, and CVBS, so the camera can be matched to a compatible analog DVR and existing cabling. The ICR day/night mechanism helps transition between lighting conditions, while 3D DNR helps reduce image noise. The camera uses a 12 VDC supply with a tolerance of ±25 percent and has a maximum power consumption of 9.8 W. Its listed dimensions are approximately 192.6 × 178.3 × 71 mm, and the weight is about 738 g. The housing is rated IP67 for dust and water resistance, and the specified operating conditions extend from −40 °C to 60 °C with humidity up to 90 percent, non-condensing. A one-year warranty is listed by the source. For a suitable installation, confirm that the DVR supports the selected video format and audio over coax, use an adequately rated 12 VDC power adapter, and position the camera so its fixed lens frames the required area. Illumination performance and usable viewing distance depend on the scene and installation conditions. Positive IT Solution provides this HikVision model with its core resolution, lens, lighting, audio, power, and compatibility details so customers can compare it with other CC camera options and plan a compatible security system.
