HiLook PTZ-N2C400I-W(2.8mm)(W) 4MP Wi-Fi PT Network Camera
The HiLook PTZ-N2C400I-W(2.8mm)(W) is a 4MP outdoor Wi-Fi pan-tilt network camera designed to provide wider surveillance coverage than a traditional fixed camera while reducing installation complexity. It delivers 2560 × 1440 video, supports human and vehicle detection, Auto-Tracking Lite, built-in audio, local memory card recording and weather-resistant protection for everyday residential and business CCTV applications.
This model is particularly suitable for users who want the flexibility of pan and tilt movement without installing a full-size professional PTZ speed dome. The camera can monitor wider outdoor spaces, driveways, gardens, entrances, small warehouses, workshops and retail premises where a standard fixed bullet or turret camera may leave blind spots.
4MP Surveillance with Pan and Tilt Coverage
The PTZ-N2C400I-W(2.8mm)(W) uses a 1/2.9" progressive scan CMOS sensor and records at up to 2560 × 1440 resolution. Compared with conventional Full HD cameras, the 4MP image provides improved detail that can help identify people, vehicles and activity more clearly.
Unlike a fixed-position camera, the pan and tilt mechanism allows the camera to move across a larger viewing area. HiLook specifies pan movement from 0° to 345° and tilt movement from 0° to 80°, helping users monitor more of their property using a single camera.
Human and Vehicle Detection
The camera supports target filtering that distinguishes between people and vehicles for selected events. This helps reduce unnecessary alerts caused by animals, rain, shadows or general environmental movement.
HiLook also specifies perimeter functions including:
Line crossing detection
Intrusion detection
Region entrance detection
Region exiting detection
These features can provide more useful event notifications for users who want better alarm accuracy than basic motion detection alone.
Auto-Tracking Lite
One of the key advantages of this model is Auto-Tracking Lite. When a person or vehicle triggers an event, the camera can automatically pan and tilt to keep the moving subject within the monitored scene.
Auto-Tracking Lite offers an affordable way to gain some of the benefits associated with larger PTZ cameras while maintaining a compact form factor suitable for domestic and small commercial installations.
EXIR 2.0 Night Vision
The PTZ-N2C400I-W(2.8mm)(W) uses EXIR 2.0 infrared technology with IR illumination up to 30 metres.
This provides dependable night monitoring for:
Driveways
Garden areas
Small yards
Side access routes
Retail entrances
Office perimeters
Garages
The camera also supports 0 Lux operation when infrared illumination is active.
Built-In Audio for Two-Way Communication
Unlike many entry-level CCTV cameras, this model includes:
1 built-in microphone
1 built-in speaker
Environment noise filtering
Audible warning capability
These features can allow users to listen to events, communicate with visitors or use event-based audible alerts depending on system configuration.
Flexible Wi-Fi Installation
One of the biggest benefits of this camera is wireless connectivity.
HiLook specifies support for:
IEEE802.11b
IEEE802.11g
IEEE802.11n
WPA/WPA2 security
Wireless range up to 50m under suitable conditions.
The camera can also connect via the integrated RJ45 Ethernet port when a wired connection is preferred.
Remote access is available through Hik-Connect, allowing users to view live footage, receive notifications and manage recordings remotely.
Local Storage Support
HiLook confirms an integrated memory card slot supporting:
microSD
microSDHC
microSDXC
Up to 512GB capacity
Local storage can be useful for users who prefer edge recording without purchasing a dedicated recorder.
Outdoor Protection
The PTZ-N2C400I-W(2.8mm)(W) is built for outdoor installations and carries an IP66 weather resistance rating.
It is suitable for operating temperatures from:
-30°C to 50°C
Humidity levels up to 95%
The lightweight plastic housing helps simplify installation while maintaining protection against rain and dust.
