Hikvision DS-2CD2726G2-IZS Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-2CD2726G2-IZS(2.8-12mm)(D) is a 2MP AcuSense motorised varifocal dome network camera designed for installations that require Full HD video, adjustable scene coverage and intelligent target classification. Its 1/2.8-inch progressive-scan CMOS sensor records at up to 1920 × 1080, while the 2.8–12mm motorised lens allows the viewing angle to be adjusted remotely during commissioning.
Powered-by-DarkFighter technology supports low-light imaging, and the built-in infrared illumination provides a manufacturer-rated range of up to 40 metres. The camera includes 120dB true WDR, human and vehicle classification for supported events, separate audio input and output, alarm input and output, and local memory-card support up to 256GB. Its metal housing is rated IP66 and IK10.

Detection and Low-Light Imaging
AcuSense deep-learning technology can classify human and vehicle targets for supported motion and perimeter-protection events. This can help focus event notifications on selected target types, but performance depends on correct installation, target size, scene conditions and configuration.
Powered-by-DarkFighter technology supports low-light operation, while the infrared illuminator provides monochrome imaging in darkness. The manufacturer specifies an IR range of up to 40 metres; actual usable distance varies with the lens position, mounting, environment and reflective surfaces.
Audio, Alarm and Storage
The camera provides one external audio input and one external audio output through 3.5mm connectors. It does not have a manufacturer-stated built-in microphone or speaker, so compatible external audio equipment is required where audio capture or playback is needed. One alarm input and one alarm output are also provided.
The internal memory-card slot supports compatible microSD, microSDHC and microSDXC cards up to 256GB. A card is normally supplied separately, and recording capacity depends on bitrate, frame rate, compression, scene activity and retention settings.
Installation and Compatibility
The motorised 2.8–12mm lens can be adjusted through compatible Hikvision software or a supported recorder. The physical dome can be positioned through its specified pan, tilt and rotation range during installation. Power can be supplied through IEEE 802.3af PoE or a correctly rated 12V DC supply.
Confirm NVR resolution support, PoE availability, AcuSense event compatibility, external audio and alarm requirements, memory-card support and mounting accessories before ordering. ONVIF Profiles S, G and T can support third-party integration, but not every Hikvision analytics function is guaranteed to be available through every recorder.
