Verkada CD43-F Government-Grade Indoor Dome Camera
Reliable 5MP Coverage for Extensive Visibility in Indoor Government Spaces
Overview
The CD43-F FIPS-validated dome camera provides reliable 5MP coverage in a variety of indoor environments. It features a 1/2.8" progressive CMOS image sensor and a 20 meters / 66 feet IR range, ensuring clear and consistent image quality across diverse lighting conditions. Key compliance features include FIPS 140-validated encryption, FedRAMP Ready status at the Moderate impact level, and TAA and FY2019 NDAA compliance, making it suitable for government-grade deployments. The CD43-F is compatible with the standard Verkada Command platform and Command hosted in AWS GovCloud.
Equipped with an onboard CV75S Ambarella processor, the CD43-F supports advanced analytics such as AI-powered search, line crossing, loitering, and Person of Interest (POI) alerts. It is ideal for covering common areas like hallways and building lobbies, offering detailed face and vehicle capture.
Installation is designed to be straightforward and efficient, with a three-LED status indicator for easy monitoring. The included mount plate features captive screws and a built-in bubble level for precise wall or ceiling installations. With hardware features that expedite installation and an IK08 impact rating, the CD43-F combines enterprise-grade durability with modern aesthetics.

Footnotes:
- 1. All cameras record in "adaptive quality," capturing both standard (SQ) and high quality (HQ) streams. SQ video is stored up to the amount of retention specified by the customer. The amount of HQ video stored on the camera will depend on the amount of motion detected by the camera over time. For more information, visit: https://docs.verkada.com/docs/adaptive-quality-recording-whitepaper.pdf
- 2. Lens Distortion Correction (LDC) crops the sensor field of view to deliver a rectified, undistorted output image.
- 3. Frame rate can be adjusted by support.
- 4. Extended temperature range includes operating temperatures below -10°C / 14°F and assumes IR will be enabled.
