The AXIS M4338-PLVE (Part #03131-001) is a professional 12 MP panoramic network camera designed to provide comprehensive 180° or 360° video coverage with exceptional image detail and minimal blind spots. Featuring a 1/1.6" sensor, 3536 x 3536 maximum resolution, and an ultra-wide 185° horizontal and vertical field of view, the M4338-PLVE delivers detailed surveillance coverage for demanding commercial and outdoor security applications.

Built with Axis' latest sensor technology, the AXIS M4338-PLVE combines Lightfinder, Forensic WDR, built-in OptimizedIR, and advanced AI-powered analytics to provide clear, reliable surveillance around the clock. Built-in infrared illumination enables reflection-free monitoring in low-light conditions and complete darkness.

12MP 360° Panoramic Coverage

The AXIS M4338-PLVE uses a stereographic lens and Sharpdome 360 technology to provide excellent image sharpness across the entire panoramic image, including the edges and corners. The camera can deliver 180° or 360° coverage without blind spots, making it possible to monitor large areas with a single camera.

Multiple viewing modes are supported, including panoramic, quad, corner, corridor, and camera-side dewarped views. Up to four digital PTZ views can also be used simultaneously, providing additional flexibility for monitoring specific areas of interest.

Advanced AI-Powered Video Analytics

The AXIS M4338-PLVE is equipped with next-generation AI-powered analytics designed to improve surveillance and situational awareness. Camera-side dewarping provides clear, natural-looking views while improving usability and analytics accuracy.

Axis analytics can help identify and monitor objects and activity within the camera's extensive field of view, making the M4338-PLVE an excellent solution for retail stores, commercial buildings, schools, warehouses, transportation facilities, parking areas, and other large spaces.

Excellent Low-Light Performance

With Axis Lightfinder and Forensic WDR, the M4338-PLVE provides high-quality images in challenging lighting conditions. Forensic WDR helps preserve important details in scenes containing both very bright and very dark areas, while Lightfinder provides excellent color performance in low light.

Built-in OptimizedIR illumination with individual IR LEDs provides discreet, reflection-free infrared surveillance in complete darkness.

Efficient Video Streaming and Storage

Axis Zipstream technology significantly reduces bandwidth and storage requirements while retaining important forensic details. The camera supports modern AV1 video encoding along with H.264 and H.265, providing flexible compression options for a wide range of surveillance systems and network environments.

Local storage is supported through the camera's built-in memory card slot.

Outdoor-Ready and Vandal Resistant

The AXIS M4338-PLVE is designed for demanding indoor and outdoor installations. Its IP66 rating provides protection against dust and water, while IK10 impact protection helps protect the camera against vandalism and physical impact.

The camera operates in temperatures from -40°F to 122°F (-40°C to 50°C), making it suitable for year-round outdoor surveillance in harsh environments.

Built-In Cybersecurity

Axis Edge Vault provides hardware-based cybersecurity designed to protect the camera and sensitive information. The M4338-PLVE features a signed operating system and secure boot, helping protect against unauthorized firmware and software modifications.
