Lorex N3 4K (8 MP) IP Wired Turret Security Camera — 4× Motorized Varifocal
This N3 turret pairs professional 4K recording at real-time 30 frames per second with a motorized varifocal lens: up to 4× optical zoom you adjust remotely, so you can reframe coverage or pull in on a gate, register, or entry point long after the camera is mounted. Smart motion detection keeps alerts focused on people and vehicles, Color Night Vision™ holds full color in low light, and infrared reaches roughly 150 ft (46 m) in total darkness.
The rugged aluminum housing carries an IP67 weatherproof rating and an operating range of −40 °F to 140 °F — genuine all-climate hardware. A built-in microphone provides listen-in audio where permitted, and Power-over-Ethernet (802.3af) delivers power and video over one cable to a compatible Lorex NVR. Available in black (LNE9282B) or white (LNE9292B).

Is the N3 varifocal turret right for you?
The flexible N3 — professional 4K with remote 4× optical zoom, for coverage you may want to refine after mounting.
Buy the N3 varifocal if:
- You want to fine-tune framing or zoom to a choke point — gate, till, doorway — from the NVR, without a ladder.
- The camera position is high or hard to reach, so lens adjustments must happen remotely.
- You need true all-climate hardware: IP67 aluminum, rated to −40 °F.
Consider another model if:
- Your framing is fixed and zoom would go unused — the N3 fixed-lens turret covers a set zone.
- You're running long cable distances or want people counting and heat mapping — the N4 ePoE turret reaches 2,000 ft with advanced analytics.
- You don't own an NVR yet — the Nocturnal 3 complete NVR system ships ready to run.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need an NVR to use this camera?
Yes — a compatible Lorex NVR records and plays back the full 4K stream. The camera connects over a single Ethernet cable.
How does the motorized zoom work?
The lens motor adjusts optical zoom (up to 4×) and refocuses on command from your NVR interface or the Lorex app — no physical access to the camera needed. Because it's optical rather than digital zoom, detail is preserved as you zoom in.
How far does night vision reach?
Infrared reaches approximately 150 ft (46 m) in total darkness. With ambient light present, Color Night Vision™ keeps footage in full color instead.
Can it really survive extreme weather?
Yes — the aluminum housing is IP67-rated against dust and water and operates from −40 °F to 140 °F, covering essentially any US climate year-round.
Does it record audio?
A built-in microphone captures listen-in audio for context. Audio recording laws vary by state and use case — enable it only where legally permitted.
How is it shipped?
Ships free and insured, typically arriving in 7–10 days with tracking.
