What resolution does the DS-2CD2T87G2-L record?

It captures at 3840 x 2160 maximum on a 1/1.2 inch progressive scan CMOS sensor. We size recorder storage and network bandwidth around that resolution, the frame rate and how long you keep footage.

Does the DS-2CD2T87G2-L work at night?

Yes. Night coverage comes from White light up to 60 m. We aim it during commissioning so the useful range lands on the area you need lit rather than a near wall or the sky.

What recorder does the DS-2CD2T87G2-L need?

It is a network camera, so it records to an NVR over a single network cable, and most of our NVRs also power the camera over that cable with PoE. We match the NVR channels, PoE budget and storage to your full camera list.

Can the DS-2CD2T87G2-L be installed outdoors in the UAE?

The manufacturer rates it IP67, with an operating range of -30 to 60 C, up to 95% RH. We still specify a shade hood on elevations that take direct midday sun, which extends the housing and sensor life.

Do you install and support the DS-2CD2T87G2-L across the UAE?

Yes. We supply, install, configure, train your team and support it across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain. Call +971 54 707 9900 for a fixed written quote.
