    About the Ajax Ajax DomeCam Mini HL (5 Mp/4 mm) Ivory

    The Ajax Ajax DomeCam Mini HL (5 Mp/4 mm) Ivory is a low-profile dome enclosure that blends into ceilings, vandal-resistant by design and harder to tamper with than bullet cameras. At 5-to-6MP the sensor sits between 1080p economy and 4K forensic detail: enough pixels-per-metre for evidence-grade faces at typical entrance and driveway distances, while keeping recording bitrate materially lighter than an 8MP camera. A short-range IR illuminator (≤20 m) handles entrance vestibules, indoor corridors, and small enclosed spaces. Beyond 20 meters the IR fall-off causes faces to lose detail in pure darkness. A standard 50–80° horizontal FOV mimics how a person sees a scene and works well for general-purpose monitoring of rooms, parking spaces, and perimeter walls without distortion. The Super Low Light sensor is the feature most installers care about for residential and parking-lot use — it preserves identification detail when older cameras lose all color and most contour.

    Best use cases for this camera

    Entrance, lobby & vestibule

    Low-light sensitivity preserves face detail even when interior lighting is dimmed for energy savings. Useful for capturing visitors as they enter and leave.

    Retail & office interior

    Dome form factor and 4.7MP (2880×1620) resolution make this a clean retail/office choice — the housing blends into ceilings and the sensor delivers enough detail for POS-area monitoring and incident review.

    Strengths

    • 4.7MP sensor preserves detail under digital zoom on recorded footage
    • Super Low Light sensor maintains color detail in near-darkness
    • Vandal-resistant dome housing harder to tamper with than bullet form factor

    Considerations

    • Short IR range limits night usability to indoor or close-proximity scenarios

    Installation tips for the Ajax DomeCam Mini HL (5 Mp/4 mm) Ivory

    1

    Ceiling-mount at 2.5–3.5 m for indoor use; for vandal-prone outdoor locations use a wall mount with the lens facing outward and downward.

    2

    Pair with low-cost ambient lighting (motion-triggered LED floods) to extend usable identification distance beyond the IR limit.

    3

    Plan storage at roughly 19 GB per camera per day for continuous H.265 recording at 15fps — verify NVR has sufficient HDD bay capacity.

    Coverage geometry & DORI distances

    At a 5-metre standoff the Ajax Ajax DomeCam Mini HL (5 Mp/4 mm) Ivory covers about 7.7 m of scene width; at 10 m that grows to 15.3 m, and at 20 m to 30.7 m. Translating those numbers through EN 62676-4 pixel-density thresholds, the camera can detect a person up to 75 m, observe up to 30 m, recognise up to 15 m, and produce identification-grade detail (the ≥250 px/m bar used by Polish and EU courts as evidentiary) up to 8 m. Effective range above the identify threshold relies on supplementary lighting or a longer-focal-length optic — the geometry above assumes the 4mm lens declared by the manufacturer.

    Power & cabling

    The Ajax Ajax DomeCam Mini HL (5 Mp/4 mm) Ivory draws an estimated 7.5 W under typical load (with the IR illuminator engaged where applicable), placing it in the 802.3af (Class 3, ≤15.4 W) budget. A single switch port supplies enough power without an injector. Cabling: stick to Cat6 STP for runs up to 100 m end-to-end — beyond that, add an inline PoE extender or move to fibre with a media converter at the camera end. On outdoor runs, route through ø25 PVC or PE conduit to keep the cable shielded from UV and rodents.

    Privacy & legal (GDPR / RODO)

    Any camera operating in a publicly accessible area falls under GDPR (RODO in Poland) — Art. 13 obliges the data controller to post an information sign at every entry point with controller name, DPO contact, lawful basis (typically Art. 6(1)(f) legitimate interest for property protection), purpose, and retention period. Even a narrowly-aimed dome camera can incidentally record passers-by, so the Art. 13 sign at the entry point applies regardless of how tightly the lens is framed.

    Installer time & cost (rough estimate)

    A typical EU installer quotes 3–4 h of labour per dome camera of this class (approximately €135–€185 excluding hardware), broken down as bracket mounting, cable termination at both ends, on-site commissioning, and a brief operator handover. Allow extra time for high mounts (>4 m), exterior installations requiring scaffolding, or sites where cable routing demands wall penetrations or conduit work.

    Indicative EU 2024-2025 pricing — actual quotes vary by region, mounting height, and site conditions. Excludes hardware, transport, permits, and VAT.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is the Ajax Ajax DomeCam Mini HL (5 Mp/4 mm) Ivory suitable for outdoor installation?

    Yes for the IP66/IP67-rated variant of this model. Bullet and dome bodies in the Ajax range survive direct rain, snow and UV; check the IP / IK rating against your environment (IP66 for rain/dust, IK10 for vandal-prone locations).

    What PoE class powers the Ajax Ajax DomeCam Mini HL (5 Mp/4 mm) Ivory?

    The camera draws roughly 7.5 W in steady-state operation, requiring a 802.3af (Class 3, ≤15.4 W) switch port. A single Cat6 STP cable carries both data and power up to 100 m — beyond that, add an inline extender or convert to fibre near the camera.

    How much storage does the Ajax Ajax DomeCam Mini HL (5 Mp/4 mm) Ivory consume per day?

    At 4.7MP (2880×1620) resolution, 15 fps H.265 continuous recording, the Ajax DomeCam Mini HL (5 Mp/4 mm) Ivory produces approximately 19 GB per day — about 570 GB per month. Motion-only or event-triggered recording typically cuts that by 40–70 % depending on scene activity. Plan NVR HDD capacity for the longest retention period required by your privacy policy or insurance contract.

    Up to what distance can the Ajax Ajax DomeCam Mini HL (5 Mp/4 mm) Ivory identify a person?

    Per EN 62676-4:2025 pixel-density thresholds, this camera identifies (≥ 250 px/m on the target) up to about 8 m, recognises a person up to 15 m, observes general activity up to 30 m, and detects motion up to 75 m. Identification distance assumes daylight or full IR illumination on the target — at the limits of the IR cone the effective identify distance shrinks roughly 30 %.

    What network bandwidth does Ajax Ajax DomeCam Mini HL (5 Mp/4 mm) Ivory use?

    Typical ingest is 7 Mbps for the main stream (H.265, medium scene complexity, 15 fps) plus ~0.5 Mbps for a low-resolution sub-stream used by mobile clients. For a 16-camera installation of this class, plan a 50–100 Mbps NVR uplink and a dedicated VLAN for camera traffic.
