Ubiquiti UVC-G6-Edge-Dome 4K PoE+ AI Camera

4K monitoring with recording built into the camera

The Ubiquiti G6 Edge Dome combines 4K imaging, optical zoom and integrated AI search with the option to operate without a separate network video recorder. Its pre-installed 128GB microSD card provides local storage, while an existing UniFi Protect console can provide centralised management and recording. An IP66 enclosure and IK10 impact rating suit outdoor and public-facing installations where both image detail and a robust housing matter.

Highlights

Detailed adjustable imaging

• Large 1/1.2-inch 8MP sensor and 4K recording up to 30fps.
• 2.36× optical zoom with a 5.9–13.8 mm lens.
• Adaptive IR illumination for night viewing up to 40M.

Flexible recording and review

• Standalone operation using local microSD storage.
• Pre-installed 128GB card included; mobile-app setup required.
• AI search, face recognition and licence plate recognition.

Outdoor installation

• IP66 weather protection and IK10 impact resistance.
• PoE+ power through a Gigabit Ethernet connection.
• Standard wall and ceiling mounting included.

Key Features

Choose local recording or a central system

Standalone operation lets a small site record directly to the included microSD card without adding an NVR. Setup uses a supported UniFi or Protect mobile app. For a multi-camera deployment, adopt the camera to a compatible Cloud Gateway or NVR to manage and record centrally. Storage retention depends on recording settings and available capacity, so plan it around the site's requirements.

Adjust the scene with optical zoom

The 2.36× optical zoom provides a wide horizontal view of 113.8° or a narrower 45.5° view at the telephoto end. Use the wide setting for general coverage and the narrower setting when the camera must concentrate on a particular entrance or approach. This changes the captured framing optically, rather than simply enlarging recorded pixels.

Capture detail through day and night

A large 1/1.2-inch sensor supplies 8MP 4K footage at up to 30fps. HDR and exposure controls help balance demanding scenes, while adaptive IR illumination and an IR cut filter support night viewing out to 40M under suitable conditions. The lens aperture varies from f/1.5 to f/2.9 as the zoom changes.

Built-in intelligence for event review

The camera supports people, vehicle and animal detections alongside face and licence plate recognition. Integrated AI-powered search and re-identification help locate related activity during review. Position the camera for clear subjects and sensible viewing distances; recognition depends on the actual scene rather than a guaranteed identification range.

A durable dome for exposed locations

The IP66 enclosure resists dust and strong water jets, and the IK10 rating addresses impact resistance. The aluminium-alloy and polycarbonate housing uses a stainless-steel mount. Optional weather-shield, flush-mount, arm, dual-mount and gang-box accessories can adapt the installation, but are separate purchases and must match this camera.

Provide PoE+ and the right setup app

The camera uses PoE+ and draws up to 15W through its Gigabit Ethernet port. A suitable PoE+ switch or injector and Ethernet cabling are required separately. Bluetooth is provided for setup. The published mobile minimums are UniFi 10.38.1 or Protect 3.11.1 on iOS, and UniFi 11.0.1 or Protect 3.8.3 on Android; use a current supported version. The built-in microphone captures audio.

Summary

The G6 Edge Dome suits sites that want outdoor 4K monitoring with optical framing, built-in detection and flexible recording. It can start with local microSD storage and a mobile app, or join an existing Protect system when central management and recording are preferred.
