Frequently Asked Questions - Hikvision DS-2CD2132F-I(W)(S)
What is the difference between the -I, -IW and -IS variants?
The DS-2CD2132F-I is the base IR fixed dome IP camera. The -W variant adds 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi (2.4-2.4835 GHz, WPA / WPA2 security, ~50m wireless range). The -S variant adds 1-channel audio input/output and 1 alarm I/O. The Wi-Fi variant does not support 802.1X.
What is the maximum resolution and frame rate?
The camera delivers 3MP video at up to 2048 x 1536 @ 20fps, 1920 x 1080 @ 25/30fps, or 1280 x 720 @ 25/30fps. Dual stream is supported so a low-bitrate sub-stream can be sent in parallel for remote viewing.
Does the camera support on-board storage and NAS?
Yes. The DS-2CD2132F has a built-in microSD/SDHC/SDXC slot supporting cards up to 128 GB for on-edge recording, and it can also write to NAS over NFS or SMB/CIFS - useful for distributed sites and reliable failover when the NVR is offline.
What smart features does this camera offer?
Built-in alarm triggers include Line Crossing detection, Intrusion detection, motion detection, dynamic analysis, tampering alarm, network disconnect, IP address conflict and storage exception - all configurable per channel. The camera is ONVIF Profile S/G, PSIA, CGI and ISAPI compatible for easy integration with third-party VMS.
How is the camera powered?
The DS-2CD2132F supports 12 VDC (+/-10%) or PoE 802.3af, with a maximum power consumption of 5W. PoE simplifies installation considerably - one Cat6 cable carries both video and power up to about 100m.
Where can I buy the Hikvision DS-2CD2132F in India?
Cybernetics Software Pvt. Ltd., Pune supplies the Hikvision DS-2CD2132F-I, -IW and -IS variants along with compatible NVRs and accessories across India, including site survey, installation, network configuration, VMS integration and after-sales support.
