Hikvision DS-2CD2T87G3-LIS2UY/SL(2.8mm) Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-2CD2T87G3-LIS2UY/SL(2.8mm) is an 8MP ColorVu 3.0 Smart Hybrid Light fixed bullet network camera with integrated two-way audio and active deterrence. Its 1/1.8-inch progressive-scan CMOS sensor records at up to 3840 × 2160, while the fixed 2.8mm F1.0 lens provides a wide 108.8° horizontal field of view.
HikAI-ISP image processing and scene-adaptive 130dB WDR support colour-focused low-light monitoring and challenging high-contrast scenes. Infrared and white-light illumination are rated up to 60 metres. The `/SL` hardware includes an arrayed dual microphone, a 2W built-in speaker, one line audio input and output, two alarm inputs and two alarm outputs, a white warning strobe and audible-warning capability. Compatible memory cards up to 512GB are supported.
Key Benefits
-
4K 8MP detail: records at up to 3840 × 2160 at 25fps in 50Hz mode or 30fps in 60Hz mode.
-
Wide 2.8mm coverage: the 108.8° horizontal field of view suits entrances, yards, car parks, building perimeters and broad surveillance scenes.
-
ColorVu 3.0 imaging: the 1/1.8-inch sensor, F1.0 aperture and HikAI-ISP processing support colour-focused detail where ambient illumination is limited.
-
60m Smart Hybrid Light: provides configurable infrared and white-light operation for supported night-monitoring modes.
-
Person and vehicle classification: supported events can focus on relevant target types and reduce unrelated notifications.
-
130dB scene-adaptive WDR: helps retain detail where bright and shaded areas appear together.
-
Integrated two-way audio: arrayed dual microphones and a 2W speaker support compatible live communication and warning playback.
-
Active deterrence: the white flashing warning light and audible warning can be linked to supported events.
-
External integration: line audio plus two alarm inputs and outputs support compatible external equipment.
-
Protected metal housing: IP67 and NEMA 4X provide weather resistance and moderate anti-corrosion protection.

Night Imaging and Detection
Smart Hybrid Light can use infrared, white light or an intelligently controlled combination according to configuration. ColorVu 3.0 and HikAI-ISP support colour-focused imaging, while practical results depend on available ambient light, mounting height, reflective surfaces, weather and camera settings. Hikvision rates both infrared and white-light supplement up to 60 metres under manufacturer test conditions.
Person and vehicle classification can be applied to supported motion, line-crossing, intrusion, region-entry and region-exit events. Face capture and scene-change detection are also supported. Detection performance depends on target size, distance, camera angle, lighting, obstruction and correct configuration; no analytics system should be treated as a guarantee that every event will be detected.
Two-Way Audio and Active Deterrence
The arrayed dual microphones and built-in 2W speaker support compatible two-way communication. The white flashing warning light and audible warning can be linked to supported events. The warning strobe is a deterrence signal rather than a general long-range scene illuminator.
One external line audio input and output plus two alarm inputs and outputs are available for compatible equipment. Event linkage, warning volume, custom audio and specialised controls can depend on camera firmware, recorder and management software.
Storage and Compatibility
The internal card slot supports compatible microSD-family cards up to 512GB. A memory card is normally sold separately. Confirm that the selected card is suitable for surveillance recording and configure recording schedules, overwrite behaviour and retention requirements correctly.
Confirm NVR support for 3840 × 2160 video, required frame rate, person-and-vehicle analytics, two-way audio, alarm and deterrence controls, Smart Hybrid Light, PoE+ capacity, storage-card support and mounting accessories before ordering. ONVIF integration can assist third-party compatibility but does not guarantee access to every Hikvision-specific feature.
Installation Considerations
The 2.8mm lens is fixed and cannot provide optical zoom or remote focal adjustment. Confirm the required scene width, target distance and identification requirement before installation. Mount the camera on a structurally suitable surface, protect all connections from moisture and follow Hikvision installation guidance.
