The DS-2SE7C425MW-AEB is a 4 MP 25× IR Network Speed Dome camera designed for wide-area surveillance. It uses a 1/2.8" progressive scan CMOS sensor and is intended for monitoring large environments such as roads, airports, parks, railways, and public venues. The speed dome design allows continuous pan, tilt, and zoom movement to actively track targets across expansive areas. This makes it suitable for applications that require both wide coverage and detailed close-up views

The camera delivers a maximum resolution of 2560 × 1440, which corresponds to 4 MP image quality. This resolution provides clear detail for identifying people, vehicles, and objects across large scenes. The camera also supports multiple image enhancement technologies such as 120 dB WDR, BLC, HLC, and 3D DNR to maintain image clarity in challenging lighting conditions. These features help ensure consistent image quality throughout the day and night.

The DS-2SE7C425MW-AEB supports long-range night surveillance with an infrared illumination distance of up to 200 meters on the PTZ channel. This allows the camera to monitor large outdoor areas even in complete darkness. The camera also supports smart supplement light technology to improve visibility when needed. This extended IR range makes it suitable for perimeter protection and large open spaces. 

This camera features a powerful 25× optical zoom combined with 16× digital zoom on the PTZ channel. The optical zoom range allows operators to zoom in on distant objects without sacrificing image quality. This is especially useful for identifying details such as faces or license plates from far distances. The zoom speed is approximately 3.6 seconds, enabling quick adjustments during live monitoring. 

Yes, the DS-2SE7C425MW-AEB includes active deterrence features such as a built-in strobe light and audible warning alarms. These features can be triggered during alarm events to warn intruders and draw attention to restricted areas. The camera supports alarm linkage actions, including white light flashing and audio alerts. This makes it suitable for proactive security applications where deterrence is as important as recording. 

The camera supports multiple smart features including auto tracking on the PTZ channel, intrusion detection, line crossing detection, region entrance and exit detection, and audio exception detection. It also supports face capture on the PTZ channel to assist with advanced monitoring needs. These intelligent functions help reduce manual monitoring by automatically responding to events. They are designed to improve situational awareness in complex surveillance environments.

The camera supports both 24 VAC and Hi-PoE power options, providing flexibility during installation. This allows it to be deployed in environments where standard PoE may not be sufficient due to power requirements. The maximum power consumption is 42 W, which includes heater and supplement light usage. These options make the camera adaptable to a wide range of infrastructure setups. 

Yes, the camera is built for demanding outdoor conditions and carries an IP66 weather protection rating. It also features IK10 impact resistance (excluding the glass window), along with 6000 V lightning protection and surge protection. The operating temperature range is from -30°C to 65°C, making it reliable in extreme climates. These protections help ensure long-term durability and stable operation outdoors. 

Does this camera support local storage?
The DS-2SE7C425MW-AEB includes a built-in memory card slot that supports microSD, microSDHC, and microSDXC cards up to 256 GB. This allows local recording directly on the camera as a backup or standalone storage solution. Local storage can be useful in case of network interruptions. It adds an extra layer of reliability for critical surveillance deployments.
