Ajax TurretCam 8MP 4mm Black Wired AI Security IP Camera

Ajax TurretCam 8MP 4mm Black Wired AI Security IP Camera

The Ajax TurretCam (8MP/4mm) in black is a wired IP turret camera built for professional video surveillance of homes and businesses. It pairs sharp Ultra HD imaging with onboard AI object recognition, and connects natively into the wider Ajax security ecosystem so cameras can be triggered automatically whenever a detector senses an intrusion. With a rugged metal enclosure and IP65 weather sealing, it is equally at home covering an entryway, yard, warehouse dock or retail floor.

Key Features

• 8MP CMOS sensor delivering resolution up to 3840 × 2160 px for crisp detail on faces, vehicles and licence plates.
• 4mm fixed lens with a viewing angle from 75° to 85°, suited to focused coverage of doorways, gates and narrow approaches.
• Smooth video capture at frame rate up to 20 FPS using efficient H.264/H.265 encoding.
• Runs on the Ajax-developed JetSparrow protocol, a fast and encrypted peer-to-peer video protocol developed by Ajax Systems, for near-instant live viewing and archive access.
• An IP camera with a smart infrared (IR) backlight and an object recognition function, giving clear detail after dark within its rated IR range.
• AI-powered detection distinguishes moving objects, distinguishing between humans, animals, or vehicles, cutting down on false alerts.
• Flexible storage: supports storage options, including NVR and microSD cards, with capacity for extensive local or centralised archiving.
• Has an IP65 protection class, making it suitable for outdoor installation, with a robust metal enclosure that protects the device against sabotage.
• Can be triggered automatically as part of an Ajax scenario, since the system allows you to configure a scenario according to which Ajax detectors trigger selected cameras to start recording, with the recorded event immediately delivered to the mobile or desktop monitoring app.

Reliable Surveillance for Homes and Businesses

This camera suits installers and end users who want dependable, high-resolution footage tied directly into an existing or new Ajax alarm system. Typical placements include front doors, driveways, loading bays, perimeter fencing and internal corridors, where its AI filtering helps operators focus on real events rather than false triggers from leaves, shadows or small animals. Because it can be wired via PoE or a standard 12V DC supply, it also works well in retrofit projects replacing older analogue cameras with a smarter, network-based solution.
