Dome Cameras

Dome cameras are a popular choice for ceilings, soffits and walls where a discreet, tidy appearance matters. The housing is compact and the lens sits under a transparent cover, so it is harder to see where the camera is pointing than with a bullet camera. This range covers fixed-lens and varifocal IP domes, mini domes and multi-sensor models from brands including Axis and Ajax.

What to look for in a dome camera

• Vandal resistance: check the IK rating on the datasheet. IK08 and above suits locations where the camera can be reached, such as stairwells, car parks and shared entrances.
• Weather protection: an IP66 or IP67 rating is intended for outdoor mounting; IP42 models are for indoor use.
• Lens: fixed lenses such as 2.8mm give a wide view. Varifocal lenses let you adjust the field of view on site.
• Night vision: many domes include built-in infrared. Models marked with an L in the part number usually have IR LEDs, but always confirm on the datasheet.
• Resolution: choose from 2MP up to 8MP (4K) depending on how much detail the scene needs.

Most domes here are PoE IP cameras, so they work with a PoE NVR or DVR recorder or a PoE switch. For other housing styles see the full CCTV cameras range.

Every product is listed with its manufacturer part number so you can match the specification to your design.
