olsenblane 0 Posted June 11, 2016 I have a Hikvision 2135F-IS camera that has the green Audio pigtails. I thought it had a built-in Mic, but apparently not. What do I need to buy to add audio recording on this camera? An Amazon search for Hikvision Microphones are coming up with nothing. The cameras is connected via POE directly to my Hikvision NVR, so I am hoping I can add a Mic that will use the existing POE power, since there are not other power sources close. Any help is much appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeromephone 6 Posted June 11, 2016 Try the ETS website they have several solutions for microphone for NVRs/DVRs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
olsenblane 0 Posted June 12, 2016 Do I just need to find a mix that fits the green pigtail connection found on most Hikvision based cameras, or do I need to run another cable or do something with the NVR? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well you need what we call a pick up device. A normal mic without 12V Supply may not be an ideal solution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hardwired 0 Posted August 16, 2016 As jeromephone noted above, you'll need a way to get power for the microphone from PoE. I've also ordered from ETS, and found them easy to work with. PoE power interface would be http://www.etsnm.com/interface.html#smea-1 , and they have lots of different microphone styles on the same site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
