Frequently Asked Questions
The TurretCam HL (126264) adds hybrid illumination — both IR and white-light LEDs reaching up to 50 metres — over the standard TurretCam 8MP (64928) which uses IR-only illumination up to 35 metres. Both models are 4K 8MP with True WDR, AI detection, and IP65/IK08 protection. Choose the HL if full-colour night footage is required.
Hybrid illumination combines IR LEDs (invisible infrared light) and white LEDs (visible white light) in the same camera. In night mode the camera uses infrared illumination and automatically activates white light when motion is detected, providing colour footage of important events.
The white-light LED illumination reaches up to 50 metres. The IR illumination also reaches up to 50 metres. Both are subject to intelligent automatic intensity adjustment based on scene conditions.
Yes. The camera supports PoE (802.3af/at) with a maximum power consumption of up to 7.5–8.5W depending on configuration. A single Ethernet cable carries both data and power. 12V DC (±20%) is also supported as an alternative power source.
The camera supports microSD cards up to 256GB. A V30 or faster card is recommended for 4K recording. The card is not included. For multi-camera centralised recording, an Ajax NVR is the recommended solution.
The 2.8mm model (126264) provides a wider ~110° horizontal field of view, better for broad-area coverage. The 4mm model (126266) provides a narrower field of view, better suited to focused monitoring of corridors, driveways, and specific zones. Both share the same 4K resolution, hybrid illumination, and IP65/IK08 protection.
Yes. The white version is AJAX TurretCam HL 8MP 2.8mm White — identical specifications in a white enclosure.
Yes. Professional installation ensures optimal camera placement, correct PoE cabling, NVR configuration, Ajax ecosystem integration, and correct configuration of hybrid illumination settings. Sipko Security provides full supply, installation, and commissioning across Melbourne.
