Sharp Video in Demanding Light

Lightfinder 2.0 delivers more life-like color and sharper images of moving objects in low light, and Forensic WDR (up to 120 dB depending on scene) keeps detail when bright and dark areas share the frame. Minimum illumination is 0.1 lux in color and 0.02 lux in black and white, and OptimizedIR with 850 nm LEDs lights the scene up to 40 m (130 ft) or more in complete darkness, with adjustable intensity.

Flexible Coverage

The 1/2.8" sensor streams HDTV 1080p at up to 50/60 fps without WDR, and the varifocal 3.4–8.9 mm lens covers 100° to 36° horizontally. Remote zoom and focus let you switch between overviews and close-ups without touching the camera, and Corridor Format suits tall, narrow scenes such as hallways.

Analytics on the Edge

The ARTPEC-7 machine learning processing unit runs AXIS Object Analytics to detect and classify humans and vehicles, with line crossing, object in area and crossline counting scenarios. AXIS Scene Metadata, AXIS Motion Guard, AXIS Fence Guard, AXIS Loitering Guard, AXIS Video Motion Detection and active tampering alarm are also included, along with audio detection.

Built-In Cybersecurity

Signed OS and secure boot ensure only authorized AXIS OS is installed, and SD card encryption (AES-XTS-Plain64 256-bit) protects local recordings. Network security includes IEEE 802.1X, IEEE 802.1AE (MACsec), HTTPS/HSTS, TLS v1.2/v1.3 and a host-based firewall.

Easy, Robust Installation

The IP66- and NEMA 4X-rated, IK10 impact-resistant outdoor casing with a weathershield has encapsulated electronics and captive screws, and the mounting bracket fits double-gang, single-gang and 4" octagon junction boxes or mounts directly to a wall or ceiling. A pixel counter and remote focus speed up commissioning.
