    Verdict

    Hikvision DS-2TD2637T-7/QY captures more pixel detail (0.1 MP vs 0 MP), useful for license-plate or face identification at distance. Hikvision DS-2TD2637T-7/QY reaches further (380 m vs 300 m) — better for perimeter and parking-lot wide shots. Hikvision DS-2TD2637T-7/QY has stronger IR illumination (50 m vs 0 m) — better for unlit corridors and night perimeter.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is Hikvision DS-2TD2628T-7(B)/QA better than Hikvision DS-2TD2637T-7/QY?

    Hikvision DS-2TD2637T-7/QY captures more pixel detail (0.1 MP vs 0 MP), useful for license-plate or face identification at distance. Hikvision DS-2TD2637T-7/QY reaches further (380 m vs 300 m) — better for perimeter and parking-lot wide shots. Hikvision DS-2TD2637T-7/QY has stronger IR illumination (50 m vs 0 m) — better for unlit corridors and night perimeter. For installation-specific advice — mounting height, tilt, obstacle shadowing, BOM and PoE budget — drop both cameras into CCTVplanner and the FOV cones, DORI rings (per EN 62676-4) and cable schedule render in real time on a satellite map or imported floor plan.

    What is the field of view of Hikvision DS-2TD2628T-7(B)/QA vs Hikvision DS-2TD2637T-7/QY?

    Hikvision DS-2TD2628T-7(B)/QA has a 32° horizontal FOV at 6.9mm. Hikvision DS-2TD2637T-7/QY has a 50° horizontal FOV at 6.5mm. Hikvision covers a wider scene at the same distance; the FOV calculator on CCTVplanner converts these into linear meters of coverage at any chosen target distance.

    Which camera has stronger IR illumination?

    Hikvision DS-2TD2637T-7/QY reaches 50 m of IR illumination versus no IR for Hikvision DS-2TD2628T-7(B)/QA. The further-reaching IR camera is the better fit for unlit yards, parking perimeters and warehouses without permanent lighting.

    Can I plan a project mixing Hikvision and Hikvision cameras?

    Yes. CCTVplanner is multi-vendor by design — drop Hikvision and Hikvision cameras on the same canvas, share the same EN 62676-4 lens math and DORI ring overlays, and consolidate them into one BOM with cable schedule and PoE budget. Vendor design tools (Axis Site Designer, Hikvision HiTools, Dahua Project Design Tool, i-PRO SDT) cannot do this because each speaks only its own catalog.
