Specifications
About the Bosch FLEXIDOME IP outdoor 4000i NDE-4502-A-GOV
The Bosch FLEXIDOME IP outdoor 4000i NDE-4502-A-GOV is a discreet dome housing well-suited to indoor retail, office, lobby, and educational environments where aesthetics matter. At 1080p the camera produces detail dense enough to identify faces inside ~10 meters and read European license plates inside 8 meters under daylight conditions. Medium IR range (20–40 m) is appropriate for typical residential driveways, small commercial perimeters, and back-of-house loading bays where reach beyond ~30 m is rarely needed at night. A wide 80–120° angle covers a large room or open area from a single mounting position, making it ideal for retail floors, conference rooms, and small parking lots.
Best use cases for this camera
Entrance, lobby & vestibule
The 100° field of view captures the entire entrance and surrounding waiting area from a single ceiling mount. Useful for capturing visitors as they enter and leave.
Retail & office interior
Dome form factor and 2.1MP (1920×1080) 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.

- •Vandal-resistant dome housing harder to tamper with than bullet form factor
- •30m effective range supports outdoor perimeter and parking-lot deployments
Considerations
- •No notable limitations for the intended class of installations

Installation tips for the FLEXIDOME IP outdoor 4000i NDE-4502-A-GOV
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.
Position so the most important subject (entrance, cash register, gate) is in the center third of the frame — peripheral pixel density drops with wide angles.
