AXIS M3205-LVE Dome Camera – 2 MP (1080p) Outdoor Wide-Angle Dome with IR

The AXIS M3205-LVE is a robust, IK10-rated 2 MP outdoor fixed dome with a wide-angle 3.1 mm lens (100° horizontal), built-in IR and an included weathershield and mounting bracket. WDR and power-efficient 850 nm IR LEDs (20 m (65 ft) or more) deliver clear video in challenging light or complete darkness, supervised I/O triggers alarms and actions, and an HDMI port can feed a public-view monitor. Zipstream with H.264 or H.265 significantly lowers bandwidth and storage.

Clear Video Day and Night

WDR (up to 115 dB depending on scene) and fine tuning of low-light behavior keep detail in challenging light, with color down to 0.2 lux. Power-efficient, long-life 850 nm IR LEDs with adjustable intensity reach 20 m (65 ft) or more, and the camera works down to 0 lux with IR on.

Wide-Angle Coverage

The 3.1 mm, F2.0 fixed lens gives a 100° horizontal and 54° vertical field of view at 1920x1080 (HDTV 1080p), with Corridor Format rotation and digital PTZ for tall or narrow scenes.

I/O, Audio and HDMI

A terminal block provides one supervised digital input and one digital output to trigger alarms or actions. Two-way audio and extra I/O can be added with AXIS T61 Audio and I/O Interfaces via portcast technology, and an HDMI type D output can drive a public view monitor.

Robust Outdoor Installation

The IP66- and NEMA 4X-rated, IK10 impact-resistant casing has a hard-coated dome, dehumidifying membrane and encapsulated electronics. The included weathershield and mounting bracket fit double-gang, single-gang and 4” octagon junction boxes for wall or ceiling mounting, and the camera operates from -40 °C to 50 °C (-40 °F to 122 °F).

Typical Applications

Building entrances and exits
Walkways and building perimeters
Schools, retail stores and offices
