Dome IP security camera AXIS M4228-LVE Outdoor 4K 3840×2160, Wall mount, 1/2.8 inch CMOS, 100° HFOV

AXIS M4228-LVE is a compact dome IP security camera designed for outdoor wall mounting and 4K (3840×2160) video capture. It features a 1/2.8" CMOS sensor and a varifocal lens with a 100° horizontal field of view (wide) that can be adjusted remotely for closer details or wider overviews. The camera integrates Lightfinder 2.0 and Forensic WDR for improved performance in challenging lighting, OptimizedIR for surveillance in darkness, and Axis Zipstream with H.264/H.265 support to reduce bandwidth and storage needs while keeping image quality.

Advantages

The camera delivers consistent high-resolution images up to 8 MP with remote zoom and focus capabilities, enabling flexible scene adaptation without on-site manual adjustments. Built-in analytics include AXIS Object Analytics and AXIS Audio Analytics for on-edge detection, classification and counting of humans, vehicles and specific sounds. A deep learning processing unit (DLPU) allows advanced features to run locally, and Axis Edge Vault provides hardware-based cybersecurity with strong cryptographic key protection. The dome form factor is weather- and impact-resistant (IP66, IK10) and the unit operates across a wide temperature range for reliable outdoor use.

How to use

Install the AXIS M4228-LVE on a suitable outdoor wall mounting point with access to a wired Ethernet connection and power according to local installation practices. Configure the camera using Axis configuration tools or compatible VMS to set resolution, bitrate and Axis Zipstream preferences. Use the remote zoom and focus controls to frame the scene and adjust exposure and Forensic WDR settings for challenging lighting. Enable preinstalled analytics such as AXIS Object Analytics and AXIS Audio Analytics to run on the camera’s DLPU and adjust detection zones, sensitivity and event rules through the management interface.

Recommendations

For best long-term performance, mount the camera at a height and angle that balance overview and identification; use the varifocal lens to fine-tune field of view remotely. Ensure proper network security practices and firmware updates to maintain Axis Edge Vault protections. In very wide scenes where detail at a distance is critical, adjust the lens toward telephoto and increase image bitrate if storage and bandwidth allow.
