Ajax DomeCam Mini HL 5MP 2.8mm Black IP Dome Camera with Hybrid Illumination

Ajax DomeCam Mini HL 5MP 2.8mm Black Dome Camera

The Ajax DomeCam Mini HL is a wired AI-powered IP dome camera built for reliable day-and-night surveillance across homes, offices, and small commercial sites. Finished in black and fitted with a fixed 2.8mm lens, this 5MP model pairs a wide field of view with hybrid IR/white-light illumination, giving installers a compact, discreet camera that delivers detailed colour footage even after dark.

Key Features

• 5MP resolution for sharp 2880 × 1620px footage with plenty of detail for identification.
• 2.8mm fixed lens offering an approximately 110° wide horizontal field of view, ideal for covering entrances, driveways, and open areas.
• Hybrid illumination that automatically switches between infrared and white LED light depending on scene conditions and detected motion.
• AI-based object recognition that distinguishes people, pets, and vehicles to cut down on false motion alerts.
• True WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) to balance exposure in high-contrast scenes such as bright backgrounds or shadowed doorways.
• Built-in microphone for capturing audio alongside video footage.
• Flexible power options via PoE (802.3af/at) or a 12V DC supply, simplifying cabling choices on site.
• Local and networked storage support, including a microSD card slot and compatibility with Ajax NVRs.
• Seamless Ajax ecosystem integration, allowing the camera to work alongside intrusion, fire, and automation devices in one connected system.

Where It Fits Best

This dome camera suits residential entryways, retail storefronts, offices, and perimeter monitoring where a discreet, weather-ready design is needed alongside clear night-time colour imaging. Because the hybrid illumination triggers white light on detected motion, it also works well as a visible deterrent for driveways, courtyards, and building perimeters, while the AI filtering helps installers avoid a flood of irrelevant motion alerts from wildlife or passing traffic.
