Product Description
The DS-2CE78U1T-IT3F is Hikvision's 8MP 4K HD-TVI turret, spec'd for jobs where an analogue-cabled site needs a resolution upgrade without touching the coax runs.
Key specs
- Resolution: 8MP, max 3840 × 2160
- Signal support: 4-in-1 switchable — HD-TVI / AHD / CVI / CVBS
- IR: EXIR 2.0, up to 60 m distance, uniform illumination across the scene (reduces the hotspot/overexposure typical of standard IR arrays)
- Housing: IP67-rated turret, ceiling or wall mount
- Lens: fixed, stable FOV for continuous monitoring
Why it matters on a job
The 4-in-1 switchable signal output is the practical win here: it drops onto existing HD-TVI, AHD, CVI or CVBS DVRs, so an 8MP upgrade doesn't force a recorder swap or a re-pull of coax. That's the difference between a half-day job and a full rewire on older analogue estates.
At 8MP / 3840×2160, this sits at the top end of the analogue-over-coax range, useful where identification detail matters — car park ANPR-adjacent coverage, entrance monitoring, warehouse aisles — rather than general wide-area overview.
Compatibility note
Listed against MPN DS-2CE78U1T-IT3F-2.8MM-W and cross-referenced part numbers DS-2CE78U7T-IT3F-2.8MM-W and DS-2CE78U1T-IT3F(2.8mm) — check the exact MPN suffix against your quote/BOM before ordering, as fixed-lens focal length variants are sold under related part numbers.
IP67 housing rating covers dust and water ingress for external mounting positions such as entrances and loading bays.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this work with my existing analogue DVR?
It supports four switchable signal formats — HD-TVI, AHD, CVI and CVBS — so it's designed to work over existing coaxial cabling on compatible DVR systems without rewiring.
How far does the night vision reach?
The EXIR 2.0 IR system is rated to 60 metres, with uniform illumination across the scene rather than a single hotspot.
Is it suitable for outdoor mounting?
Yes — the housing is IP67-rated, giving protection against dust and water ingress for external positions such as entrances or loading bays.
Does the MPN suffix matter when ordering?
Yes — this model is listed under related part numbers including DS-2CE78U7T-IT3F-2.8MM-W and DS-2CE78U1T-IT3F(2.8mm), so check the exact MPN against your BOM before ordering.
