HIKVISION DS‑TCG406‑E (12V PoE) – ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) Camera

The HIKVISION DS‑TCG406‑E (12V PoE) is a dedicated ANPR camera built to capture and recognize vehicle license plates with clarity and precision. Its high‑resolution sensor delivers detailed video, even at distance and under challenging lighting, so license plate characters are legible. The camera’s ANPR analytics identifies and reads plates and supports integration with access control, parking systems, and vehicle tracking applications.

Equipped with night vision and optimized illumination, the camera records clear video in low‑light conditions and at night. 12V PoE power support allows both power and data to use a single network cable, simplifying installation. The rugged, weather‑resistant housing protects the unit from dust and rain, enabling strong outdoor performance. With smart plate recognition and reliable imaging, this camera enhances vehicle access, security monitoring, and automated entry systems.

Key Features

• High-Resolution Imaging: Equipped with a 1/1.8″ progressive scan CMOS sensor, the camera delivers a maximum resolution of 2688 × 1520 pixels for clear and detailed image capture.
• Advanced Illumination: It has 4 built-in high-performance LEDs that provide both white light and IR illumination for effective 24/7 operation in diverse lighting conditions, including low-light and nighttime scenarios.
• Motorized Varifocal Lens: The 2.8–12 mm motorized varifocal lens allows remote adjustment of zoom and focus, providing flexibility in installation and optimal field of view coverage.
• Intelligent Recognition: The camera supports a high-accuracy ANPR algorithm, including recognition of dirty license plates, vehicle type (car, van, bus, truck, etc.), color, and brand.
• System Integration: It can control vehicle barrier gates directly via its relay output and is connectable with access control systems using the Wiegand interface.
• Triggering Modes: Multiple LPR triggering modes are supported, including loop, radar, and video triggering, for versatile application.
• Durability: The device is IP67-rated for protection against dust and water and IK10-rated for vandal resistance, making it suitable for harsh outdoor environments.
• Storage: An integrated TF card slot supports up to 1 TB of onboard storage for allowlist/blocklist data (up to 100,000 entries) and video/image storage.
• Power Options: It supports both Power over Ethernet (PoE) and 12-24V DC power input, offering flexible deployment options.
