Frequently Asked Questions
Can this dome camera sit in an uncovered outdoor position?
Ubiquiti specifies IPX4 protection while covered. Therefore, choose an indoor or sheltered location rather than direct weather exposure.
What is the difference between its IK08 and IPX4 ratings?
IK08 describes impact resistance. In contrast, IPX4 relates to water protection under the stated covered-installation condition.
Does person detection require facial recognition?
Person detection identifies a person’s presence without identifying who they are. Facial recognition is a separate feature requiring additional compatible hardware on G5 cameras.
