ACTi Z95 4MP Outdoor Mini Dome Camera
Overview
The ACTi Z95 is a compact 4MP outdoor mini dome engineered for professional surveillance where you need weather-sealed performance in a discreet footprint. The Z95 combines 4MP native resolution with WDR to handle mixed lighting—direct sun on a building facade paired with shadow detail on the same subject—without halo artifacts that confuse analytics. H.265 and H.264 compression codecs allow you to stretch storage budgets 40–60% depending on scene complexity. Integrated IR night vision extends surveillance into complete darkness without requiring auxiliary lighting, critical for perimeter monitoring and access points running 24/7. IP67 rating means no water ingress from jets or dust storms; IK10 impact rating handles intentional or accidental blows without optical distortion. Powered by standard 802.3af PoE (drawing well under 13W), the Z95 integrates into existing IP camera networks without dedicated power runs—a real time and cost saver in retrofit or multi-camera deployments.
Compatibility
The Z95 works within any professional surveillance platform supporting ONVIF-compliant IP cameras and standard H.265/H.264 streams. It integrates with enterprise VMS systems (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha SmartVMS, etc.) and integrator-grade NVR solutions that accept PoE-powered IP cameras. No proprietary controllers or closed ecosystems—the Z95 is a standalone streaming device compatible with any standards-based management layer. If your facility already runs multiple camera brands via a central VMS, the Z95 plugs in without protocol translation or gateway hardware.
Installation Notes
Mount the Z95 on ceiling, wall, or soffit using standard dome camera brackets—the compact form factor fits tight soffits and corner installations where larger housings won't work. Fixed 2.8mm lens (104.4° horizontal) means field of view is predetermined; plan mounting height and angle before installation. PoE injector or PoE switch port supplies power; no separate 12V supply required. Environmental operating range is typical for outdoor dome cameras; confirm your installation location stays within the Z95's temperature and humidity limits before final mounting.
