AXIS M3126-LVE 4MP AI Turret Camera with IR, White, 02918-001
Description
AXIS M3126-LVE Turret Camera – 4 MP Outdoor AI Turret with OptimizedIR (White)
The AXIS M3126-LVE is a wide-angle outdoor AI turret whose 130° view covers more ground with fewer cameras, built around a 2.4 mm fixed lens, built-in OptimizedIR and an onboard deep learning processing unit. It runs AXIS Object Analytics on the edge, protects itself with Axis Edge Vault, and comes in a compact, IP66/IK08-rated white casing that installs indoors or outdoors.

Clear Video Day and Night
Built-in OptimizedIR uses power-efficient, long-life 850 nm LEDs to light scenes in complete darkness up to 20 m (65 ft) or more, depending on the scene, so there is no need for extra lighting. WDR preserves detail when a scene has both bright and dark areas, and Axis Lightfinder adds light sensitivity and clearer color as light levels drop.
Wide Coverage From One Camera
A 2.4 mm lens gives the AXIS M3126-LVE a 130° horizontal field of view, so one camera takes in more of a parking area, entrance or courtyard than a narrower fixed lens would.
AI Analytics on the Edge
The onboard deep learning processing unit runs AXIS Object Analytics to detect, classify, track and count humans and vehicles, with scenarios such as line crossing, object in area, time in area and occupancy in area. AXIS Scene Metadata adds attributes such as vehicle and clothing color for fast forensic search in live or recorded video.
Built-In Cybersecurity
Axis Edge Vault, a hardware-based cybersecurity platform, safeguards the device with a secure element certified to FIPS 140-3 Level 3, plus signed firmware, secure boot, signed video and an encrypted filesystem.
Flexible, Outdoor-Ready Installation
The flat-faced design suppresses light reflections. The IP66-, NEMA 4X- and IK08-rated casing handles weather and impact from -30 °C to 50 °C (-22 °F to 122 °F), and it mounts on walls or ceilings with optional pendant kits, conduit back boxes and recessed mounts. Audio and I/O can be added through portcast accessories.
