Selection notes

• Manufacturer family reference for the explicitly listed complete models only; confirm the supplied lens, colour, hardware and firmware.
• DS-2CD2143G2-LIS2U (-S interfaces and -2U audio only). These suffix-specific references do not apply to the base family member.
• Select the lens and colour explicitly; a Black ordering entry does not confirm the supplied colour. DORI distances are references, not identification guarantees.
• Third-stream operation depends on settings. External audio and alarm equipment require compatibility and load checks.
• Enclosure ratings do not establish coastal or chemical-corrosion suitability. Mounting parts and package contents require confirmation.
• ISD supplies products only. Confirm availability, price, lead time and local warranty separately.
