The Hikvision DS-2CE72D8T-IT3SE is a professional 2MP Ultra Low Light analogue HD turret camera from the Turbo HD Pro Series. Featuring an exceptional F1.0 aperture and a minimum illumination of just 0.0005 Lux, this camera is engineered to produce clear, full-colour images in near-total darkness — making it ideal for poorly lit car parks, alleyways, building perimeters, retail back-of-house areas, and any environment where reliable low-light performance is critical.

A standout feature is its Power over Coaxial (PoC) support, allowing the camera to be powered directly over the existing coaxial cable — eliminating the need for a separate power supply run and significantly simplifying installation in retrofit or upgrade scenarios where analogue coaxial cable is already in place.

Key Highlights

• Ultra Low Light Performance — F1.0 aperture with 0.0005 Lux minimum illumination delivers exceptional clarity in near-darkness without relying on IR
• 2MP Full HD Resolution — 1920×1080 resolution at up to 30fps (TVI) for crisp, detailed imagery across the full scene
• Power over Coaxial (PoC) — Camera powered directly via coaxial cable from a compatible PoC DVR, eliminating separate power supply runs and simplifying installation
• 130dB True Wide Dynamic Range — Handles extreme contrast scenes including bright sunlight at entrances, headlights in car parks, and mixed indoor/outdoor lighting
• 40m Smart IR Night Vision — Built-in 850nm IR LEDs illuminate up to 40 metres for reliable night-time imaging when visible light is absent entirely
• Audio over Coaxial — Built-in microphone transmits audio signal back to a compatible DVR over the same coaxial cable — no separate audio cable required
• 3D Digital Noise Reduction — Produces clean, sharp images by reducing noise artefacts, particularly beneficial in low-light conditions
• 4 Programmable Privacy Masks — Block sensitive areas such as neighbouring windows or public footpaths
• 4 Programmable Motion Detection Zones — Trigger recordings and alerts based on movement in defined areas
• IP67 Weatherproof — Fully sealed for reliable outdoor and indoor installation in all UK weather conditions
• -40°C to +60°C Operating Range — Dependable performance in extreme cold and heat
• ICR Day/Night Switching — Infrared Cut Filter automatically switches for true colour by day and maximum sensitivity by night

Power over Coaxial (PoC) Explained

PoC technology allows a compatible Hikvision DVR (with PoC ports) to supply power to this camera through the coaxial cable used for video transmission. This means a single RG59 or RG6 cable run handles both video and power simultaneously — dramatically reducing installation time, labour costs, and cable management complexity. It is especially valuable for upgrading existing analogue CCTV systems where coaxial cabling is already installed throughout a building.
