Ajax DomeCam Mini 5MP 2.8mm Black PoE IP Dome Camera

Ajax DomeCam Mini 5MP 2.8mm Black PoE IP Dome Camera

The Ajax DomeCam Mini is a compact wired dome camera built to work seamlessly with an Ajax security system while also standing on its own as a capable PoE surveillance camera. With a 5MP sensor, a 2.8mm fixed lens, and onboard AI-based object recognition, it delivers sharp footage and smarter alerts for homes, offices, and small commercial sites. The black metal housing is IP65-rated, so it copes well with both indoor installs and covered outdoor locations.

Designed to Work With Your Ajax Alarm System

Where this camera really shines is inside an Ajax security ecosystem. It can be configured so that Ajax motion detectors or door/window sensors trigger the camera to start recording automatically, giving installers and monitoring operators instant visual verification of an alarm event. Footage and live views are accessible through the Ajax mobile and desktop apps, including a video wall view for keeping an eye on multiple cameras at once. It also works as a standalone PoE IP camera integrated into third-party VMS software for sites that don't require a full alarm system.
