DS-2CD6425G1-20 (3.7MM)

The split-body specialist mini-camera

Most cameras combine the lens, sensor, processor, and connectors in one housing. Some installations need them separated. The Hikvision DS-2CD6425G1-20 is the split-body specialist mini-camera with a 2-metre extension cable between the camera head (lens and sensor) and the body (processor, network connection, power). The 20 in the model designation indicates the 2-metre cable length.

That separation enables installations that would otherwise be impossible: the camera lens passing through a wall with the body inside a cabinet, the lens hidden in a display fixture with the body in a server room, or any application where the operating environment for the lens is different from where the electronics need to live.

What this camera is actually good at

• Split-body design with 2-metre cable between camera head and electronics.
• Compact lens-and-sensor head for ultra-tight installation positions.
• 2MP resolution.
• 3.7mm narrow lens for tight-quarter close-up identification.
• Standard motion detection.
• Hik-Connect mobile app integration.

Where this camera belongs

• Through-wall installations where the lens passes through a wall but the body cannot
• Display fixture installations with the lens hidden in retail displays and the body in the server room
• Specialist security installations where the operating environment differs from where the electronics live
• Built-in furniture installations in high-end retail and hospitality
• Custom enclosure projects requiring lens placement at a distance from the recorder connection
• Vehicle and equipment installations with specific physical separation requirements

If you want standard mini-camera options

• The DS-2CD2D25G1-D/NF is the standard mini-dome without split-body design.

If you want standard panoramic alternatives

• The DS-2CD2T46G2P-ISU/SL 2.8mm is the 4MP panoramic bullet with active strobe.
• The DS-2CD2T87G2P-LSU/SL is the 8MP panoramic flagship.

Pairs cleanly with the DS-7616NXI-K2 16-channel NVR. Contact us for specialist split-body installation consultations.

Specialist split-body installation

Split-body installations involve careful planning: where the camera head goes versus where the body lives, how the cable is routed and protected, and how the installation is concealed. We do that planning and installation work as commercial projects across Pretoria East, Centurion, Midrand, and Johannesburg.
