Hikvision DS-2DF8442IXG1-ELWY 4MP 42X DarkFighter IR Network Speed Dome With Wiper (DF8 Series)

Hikvision 4MP 42X DarkFighter PTZ Camera

The Hikvision DS-2DF8442IXG1-ELWY is a high-performance 4MP network speed dome camera designed for professional outdoor surveillance. With 42x optical zoom, DarkFighter technology and up to 400m infrared illumination, this PTZ camera can monitor large areas while providing detailed images in both daylight and low-light conditions.

Its powerful zoom capability allows security operators to view distant objects without losing important details. This makes it suitable for applications where wide-area coverage and long-distance identification are important, including industrial sites, large properties, transport areas and critical infrastructure.

Advanced 4MP Imaging and 42x Optical Zoom

The 4MP sensor provides detailed surveillance footage for monitoring and investigation. The impressive 42x optical zoom gives operators the flexibility to move from a wide overview to a much closer view of distant subjects. This makes the camera particularly useful for monitoring expansive outdoor environments from a strategic mounting position.

DarkFighter Technology for Low-Light Surveillance

Hikvision DarkFighter technology is designed to deliver improved image performance in challenging lighting conditions. Combined with powerful infrared illumination, the camera can continue monitoring areas where normal lighting is limited or unavailable.

400m Infrared Night Vision

With an IR illumination distance of up to 400 metres, the DS-2DF8442IXG1-ELWY is built for long-range night surveillance. This extended infrared capability helps security teams monitor large perimeters, access points and outdoor areas after dark.

Intelligent Security Monitoring

The camera supports deep-learning-based intelligent analytics to help identify relevant security events and reduce unnecessary monitoring. PTZ functionality also allows operators to control the viewing direction and zoom level when investigating activity.

Built for Demanding Outdoor Environments

The rugged housing provides IP67 weather protection and IK10 vandal resistance, helping the camera withstand dust, water and physical impact. A built-in windshield wiper helps maintain a clearer view during wet or adverse weather conditions.
