4K Deep-Learning Dome for Discreet Indoor Surveillance

The AXIS M4218-V Dome Camera delivers superior 4K image quality in a compact, IK08 vandal-resistant housing that blends seamlessly into modern interiors. Featuring a varifocal lens with remote zoom and focus, WDR up to 110 dB, and advanced noise reduction, it captures clear detail in challenging light conditions while maintaining efficient bandwidth thanks to Axis Zipstream. A powerful, built-in Deep Learning Processing Unit (DLPU) powers edge-based analytics, such as AXIS Object Analytics, so you can act on events in real time with smart classification of humans and vehicles.

Key Benefits & Features

  • Superior 4K Imaging: 8 MP 1/2.8" CMOS sensor, WDR, and 2D/3D noise reduction provide sharp, detailed video for evidence, even in difficult light.
  • Flexible Varifocal Lens: The 3.5-6.6 mm varifocal lens with remote zoom and focus lets you tune coverage from wide 93° overviews to tighter 47° views without manual intervention.
  • Deep-Learning Analytics on the Edge: The integrated DLPU enables AXIS Object Analytics to detect and classify humans and vehicles (cars, buses, trucks, bikes) for smarter, faster alarms and reduced false positives.
  • Secure by Design: Axis Edge Vault provides a hardware-based cybersecurity platform with secure boot, signed video, and encrypted storage (AES-XTS-Plain64 256bit) to protect device identity, configuration, and video integrity.
  • HDMI and PoE Simplicity: The HDMI type D output supports public viewing monitors (for example 1080p @30 Hz) while PoE (IEEE 802.3af/at Class 2) power and microSD edge storage simplify installation and deployment.

Ideal Use Cases

  • Indoor surveillance where discreet, vandal-resistant (IK08) 4K coverage is required.
  • Retail, office, or education sites needing analytics-driven detection and classification of people and vehicles.
  • Locations that stream live video to public displays via HDMI while simultaneously recording to VMS or edge storage.
  • Secure environments that expect hardened cybersecurity and signed video for audit-ready evidence (Axis Edge Vault).

Technical Specifications
