The complete 4MP commercial dome
For commercial premises that need everything in one camera (full-colour night vision, active deterrent on intrusion, audio capture for context, and identification-grade resolution) the Hikvision DS-2CD2147G3-LIS2UY 2.8mm delivers the complete package in a discreet dome housing. Latest-generation G3 ColorVu sensor for full-colour footage even with poor interior lighting after hours. Built-in white-light strobe and siren for active intrusion response. Two-way audio for verbal warning or visitor communication. AcuSense AI for accurate event classification. All in the standard ceiling-friendly dome form factor.
This is the camera we install in retail shopfronts that need real after-hours response, in pharmacies and small commercial sites where intrusion resistance matters, and in premium hospitality interiors where the dome aesthetic suits the architecture but compromise on capability is not an option.
What this camera is actually good at
- Latest-generation G3 ColorVu. Full-colour footage at night even in poor interior lighting. The biggest single improvement over the G2H generation.
- Built-in white-light strobe. Activates on AcuSense human classification within configured detection zones during armed schedules.
- Built-in siren. Audible alarm at the camera position itself.
- Two-way audio. Microphone and speaker for verbal challenge or visitor communication.
- 4MP AcuSense classification. Refined human and vehicle detection for accurate strobe triggering.
- Wide 2.8mm lens. 102° horizontal view from one ceiling mount.
- 120 dB WDR. Refined contrast handling.
- IP67 and IK10. Indoor or under-eave use, vandal-resistant.
- Compact dome form factor.
Where this camera belongs
- Retail shopfronts as the primary after-hours active deterrent dome
- Pharmacies and dispensing environments with stock-room intrusion resistance
- Restaurant and hospitality interiors needing both customer-hours coverage and after-hours active deterrent
- Premium office reception areas where dome aesthetic and full capability both matter
- Body corporate communal areas where active deterrent helps reduce loitering and unauthorised access
- Healthcare reception areas with after-hours intrusion concerns
If you want to step up to higher resolution
- The DS-2CD2187G3-LIS2UY 2.8mm is the 8MP version of this exact camera. The flagship of the indoor dome range.
If you want simpler features at lower cost
- The DS-2CD2146G2H-ISU 2.8mm is the previous-generation G2H 4MP with audio but without active strobe and ColorVu. The right call when active deterrent is not the priority.
- The DS-2CD2146G2H-I 2.8mm is the same previous-generation dome without audio.
Pairs cleanly with the DS-7616NXI-K2 16-channel NVR. Our installation guide covers commercial system design.
Active deterrent configuration matters most on commercial sites
The strobe and siren on commercial interiors carry real consequences: false-firing during business hours from a customer reaching across a counter is a customer-relations problem; true-firing on a real intrusion is a reputation-saving response. Configuration is the difference. We do detection zones, sensitivity calibration, schedule rules, and trigger logic as standard, with live testing for both real-intrusion response and false-positive resistance, across Pretoria East, Centurion, Midrand, and Johannesburg.

How Hikvision active-deterrent cameras work
