The 8MP ColorVu panoramic active-deterrent dome
The Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL is the dome-form-factor sibling of the DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL bullet flagship. Same 8MP panoramic capability with two lenses combined into a stitched 180° wide-field image. Same ColorVu full-colour night vision throughout. Same built-in white-light strobe and audible siren. Same AcuSense AI driving classification across the panorama. In a dome housing for ceiling-mounted, overhang, and architectural positions where a dome form factor suits better than a bullet.
The right call for premium overhead positions: lobby ceilings, undercover entrances, large patio overhangs, and any architectural mount where the dome form factor matters and panoramic ColorVu coverage with active deterrent is the right level of capability.
What this camera is actually good at
- 8MP resolution across panoramic 180° field in dome housing.
- ColorVu full-colour night vision on both lens channels.
- Built-in white-light strobe and siren with AcuSense human-only triggering.
- AcuSense AI classification across the full panorama.
- Two-way audio with high-quality microphone and speaker.
- Built-in supplementary white light for maintaining ColorVu performance.
- 120 dB true WDR.
- IP67 weather-sealed and IK10 vandal-resistant dome housing.
- Alarm I/O terminals for electric fence and alarm panel integration.
Where this camera makes the most sense
- Premium lobby and reception ceiling positions with comprehensive panoramic coverage
- Undercover entrance positions covering both sides of the entry from one mount
- Large patio and entertainment overhangs with full-colour identification at night
- Hospitality venue overhangs requiring panoramic flagship-class coverage
- Body corporate communal entrances where panoramic dome flagship coverage is justified
If you want a bullet form or different feature sets
- The DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL is the bullet-form-factor 8MP panoramic flagship.
- The DS-2CD2T46G2P-ISU/SL is the 4MP panoramic bullet at a more accessible price point.
If you want IP-network panoramic without active deterrent
- For purely passive panoramic coverage without the strobe and siren, look at the standard 8MP ColorVu IP dome range. The DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL is the active-deterrent option specifically.
This camera deserves a recorder of comparable capability. The DS-7616NXI-K2 16-channel NVR handles smaller installations cleanly. Larger sites typically use commercial-grade DS-7732NXI-I4/16P/S.
