Ajax DOME HL 8-2.8 (B) dome CCTV black 8MP 2.8mm

Optics and image sensor

The 2.8mm fixed lens combined with a 1/2.7" CMOS sensor provides a wide field of view, suitable for covering large areas with minimal exposure points. The 8 MP resolution allows for the capture of detailed images, suitable for the precise identification of people and objects. The 110° horizontal, 56° vertical and 126° diagonal field of view ensures balanced coverage, limiting blind spots while maintaining good readability of the scene.

Video performance and image processing

The camera supports a frame rate of up to 20 fps, ensuring smooth scene reproduction for most video surveillance applications. Compatibility with the H.265 and H.264 codecs optimizes bandwidth and storage space, while maintaining high image quality. True WDR effectively handles scenes with high dynamic ranges, compensating for backlighting and abrupt lighting variations to deliver an actionable image in complex environments.

Lighting and night vision

The camera incorporates a lighting system combining white and infrared LEDs, each with a range of up to 15 meters. IR LEDs provide discreet monitoring in complete darkness, while white LEDs can be used for color identification in low-light conditions. This dual lighting solution improves the quality of nighttime images and increases the camera's versatility in different lighting scenarios.

Power and energy consumption

The main power supply is via the 802.3at/af PoE standard, simplifying installation with a single cable for data and power. The maximum PoE power consumption is 8.2 W, making it easy to size PoE switches and injectors. The camera can also be powered by an external 12V DC ± 20%, 1A power supply, with a maximum consumption of 7.1W. This dual power option provides increased flexibility for integration into different grid and power infrastructures.

Network connectivity and local storage

The camera has a 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 Ethernet port, ensuring a stable network connection and compatible with most switching equipment. Local storage is supported via a microSD card up to 256GB, allowing for standalone video recording or redundant archiving compared to a centralized recorder. This on-board storage capability secures data retention in the event of a network outage or failure of the primary recording system.

Audio and smart features

A built-in digital microphone enables sound capture, making it easy to analyze events and enrich video evidence. Intelligent video analytics includes motion detection and AI object detection, improving alert relevance and reducing false detections. These features enable proactive monitoring, with the ability to trigger actions or notifications based on configured scenarios.

IT security and tamper protection

The camera incorporates several advanced anti-tamper protection and IT security mechanisms, including mTLS for encryption and mutual authentication, as well as authentication via Ajax Cloud for secure remote access control. Secure Boot ensures that only authentic, untampered firmware can be run, while OTA signature verification secures over-the-air software updates. All of these measures strengthen the camera's resilience against compromise and manipulation attempts.

Environmental resistance and conditions of use

The housing has an IP65 rating, ensuring effective resistance to dust and splashing water, making the camera suitable for both outdoor and indoor use. The operating temperature range of -30 °C to 60 °C allows for reliable use in environments subject to extreme climatic conditions. These characteristics make it a robust equipment for installations in facades, car parks, industrial areas or any other exposed site.

Dimensions, weight and installation

With dimensions of 11.4 cm x 11.4 cm x 6.7 cm and a weight of 430 g, the camera has a compact size that facilitates its architectural integration and discretion on site. The image rotation can be set to 0° or 180° simplifies installation in different orientations, without compromising the readability of the videos. This format and configuration options provide flexibility for wall, ceiling, or specific structure mounting, while simplifying maintenance and subsequent adjustments.
