Black Hikvision DS-2CD2346G2H-IU Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-2CD2346G2H-IU(2.8mm)(eF) in black is a 4MP AcuSense Powered-by-DarkFighter fixed turret network camera with a built-in microphone. Its 1/3-inch progressive-scan CMOS sensor records at up to 2688 × 1520, while the fixed 2.8mm F1.0 lens provides a wide 100.2° horizontal field of view.
The camera combines a manufacturer-rated minimum colour illumination of 0.001 lux, infrared illumination up to 30 metres and 120dB WDR. Deep-learning analytics support human and vehicle classification for compatible motion and perimeter events. It also provides face capture, scene-change detection and local memory-card support up to 512GB. Hikvision does not state a built-in speaker, external audio input/output or alarm input/output for this exact IU model.

Detection, Audio and Compatibility
AcuSense can classify human and vehicle targets for supported motion and perimeter events. The built-in microphone records audio, but no speaker or audio output is stated, so this listing does not claim two-way audio.
Confirm NVR 4MP decoding, AcuSense and audio-recording support, PoE capacity, storage-card compatibility and mounting accessories before ordering. Third-party integration might not expose every Hikvision feature.
