Field of view and DORI distances
The angles come from the manufacturer’s documentation for this model. A level’s distance is how deep along the camera axis the required pixel density holds; in practice the result also depends on light, viewing angle and video compression. The values may differ from the DORI in the datasheet: manufacturers calculate it by their own method, here it strictly follows the IEC 62676-4 density thresholds.

The angles were cross-checked against the manufacturer’s model page and datasheet.

Hikvision DS-2CD2543G2-I is a fourth-generation dome IP camera with 2688×1520 resolution and a built-in microphone for audio recording of events. IR illumination up to 30 meters and ultra-low light sensitivity of 0.005 lux allow surveillance in almost complete darkness. The camera is designed for sites where not only video but also audio recording is important: meeting rooms, reception areas, retail floors.
Advantages
- Built-in microphone: recording sound without additional equipment simplifies the system and reduces installation cost
- IR illumination up to 30 m: an extended night-shooting radius covers large rooms and courtyard areas
- 0.005 lux sensitivity: the camera sees in minimal lighting — at the level of a candle
- 4 MP resolution: a detailed picture with margin for digital zoom during viewing
- H.265+: intelligent compression saves up to 50% of archive disk space
- PoE power: fast and economical installation without laying separate power cables
Applications
- Meeting rooms and conference halls: video and audio recording of meetings
- Retail floors and checkout points: comprehensive monitoring with sound recording
- Office waiting areas and reception desks: monitoring visitors with audio
- Entrances and elevator lobbies of residential complexes: security of common areas
- Small production areas: monitoring personnel and processes
