A-DOMECAM 5MP/ 8MP 2.8MM (B&W)

AJAX – DOMECAM 5MP/8MP 2.8MM Black and White Dome Camera

AJAX DOMECAM 5MP/8MP 2.8MM Black and White Dome Camera

The AJAX DOMECAM is a black and white dome camera for CCTV surveillance. It is designed to watch over a room, entrance, corridor or yard from a fixed position, and its rounded dome housing gives it a discreet look that suits both commercial and residential premises.

This model is listed with a 2.8 mm lens, a fixed focal length that gives a wide field of view for covering a broad area from a single mounting point. The supplier lists the camera at 5MP and 8MP, so the image sharpness is suited to recording faces, number plates and details across the scene.

Because the camera is black and white, it records in monochrome. This is useful for general monitoring and for scenes where a clear grey-scale image is enough to identify movement and people. It is a practical choice for a security system that needs dependable coverage without the cost of a full colour setup.

The DOMECAM fits into a standard CCTV installation as one part of a wider system. It can be combined with other cameras and a recorder so that footage from several points is stored and reviewed from one place. Mounting it on a ceiling or wall is the usual approach, and the dome shape helps keep the lens protected from dust and knocks.

Choose this camera when you need a compact, black and white dome for general surveillance, with a fixed 2.8 mm view and a resolution of 5MP or 8MP.

AJAX DOMECAM 5MP/8MP 2.8MM Black and White Dome Camera

The AJAX DOMECAM 5MP/8MP 2.8MM (B&W) is a dome-style CCTV camera that records in black and white. It is part of the CCTV dome camera range from AJAX and is intended for fixed surveillance of indoor and outdoor areas where a monochrome image is sufficient. The dome housing is a common format for security cameras, as it blends into ceilings and walls and makes it less obvious which direction the lens is pointing.

Key specifications

  • Brand: AJAX
  • Product type: dome camera
  • Image type: black and white (B&W)
  • Resolution: listed as 5MP and 8MP
  • Lens: 2.8 mm fixed focal length
  • Category: CCTV, dome cameras

Lens and field of view

A 2.8 mm lens is a wide-angle choice. It takes in a broad area from a single position, which means fewer cameras are needed to cover a room, a corridor or a small yard. The trade-off is that objects far from the camera appear smaller, so for long distances a narrower lens may be better. Check the mounting height and distance to the area you want to watch before installation.

Image quality

The camera is listed at 5 megapixels and 8 megapixels. Higher resolution gives more detail in the recorded image, which helps when footage needs to show faces, clothing, vehicle details or small objects. Actual image detail also depends on the lighting, the distance to the subject and the recorder settings used with the system.

Black and white recording

Black and white recording suits general monitoring. It shows movement, shapes and outlines clearly and works well in environments where colour is not needed to identify what is happening. Colour detail, such as the colour of a vehicle or clothing, will not be captured by this model.

Installation and use

The DOMECAM is designed to be fixed in place, typically to a ceiling or wall. Plan the cable route and power connection before mounting, and position the camera so that the entrance, desk area or other target zone is in view. The dome cover helps protect the lens from dust and minor impacts, but it is still good practice to keep the lens clean and free of obstructions.

Typical uses

  • Monitoring entrances, lobbies and reception areas
  • Covering corridors, stairwells and storerooms
  • General surveillance of offices, shops and warehouses
  • Adding a discreet camera point to an existing CCTV system
  • Residential security where a monochrome image is enough

Working with a CCTV system

The camera is intended to be used as part of a wider surveillance setup. Connect it to a compatible recorder or network video system so that footage is stored and can be reviewed. When planning a system, consider how many cameras you need, how long footage should be kept and where the recorder will be placed. Choosing a single camera type across the system can make maintenance and spare parts simpler.

Before you buy

Confirm that the recorder or software you plan to use supports the resolution and connection type of this camera. Check the power requirements and cable length for your site. If you need colour images at night or in low light, a different camera model may be more suitable.
