Forensic WDR up to 120 dB, defogging and electronic image stabilization keep details usable in harsh light, haze and wind.
AI Analytics at the Edge
AXIS Object Analytics detects and classifies humans and vehicles with line crossing, object in area, crossline counting and time in area scenarios, and AXIS Scene Metadata, AXIS Video Motion Detection, autotracking and gatekeeper are included. AXIS Perimeter Defender and AXIS License Plate Verifier are supported, and privacy masks include mosaic and chameleon masking.
Heavy-Duty Design
The urban-grey aluminum casing meets MIL-STD-810G, ICC-ES AC156 and ISO 12944-6 C5 (High) corrosion requirements, with IP66/IP68, NEMA 4X and IK10 ratings. It operates from -50 °C to 55 °C (-58 °F to 131 °F) at full power, is NEMA TS 2 tested to 74 °C (165 °F) and withstands sustained winds of 68 m/s (245 km/h, 150 mph). A silicone wiper is included.
Advanced Cybersecurity
Axis Edge Vault combines a TPM 2.0 (CC EAL4+, FIPS 140-2 Level 2) and a secure element (CC EAL 6+) with Axis device ID, secure keystore, signed video and secure boot. IEEE 802.1X, IEEE 802.1AE (MACsec), IEEE 802.1AR, HTTPS/HSTS, TLS 1.2/1.3 and a host-based firewall protect the network connection.
Power Profiles and Audio
The camera runs on High PoE (IEEE 802.3bt Type 4, max 90 W) through the included midspan. Power profiles let you choose full power (max 71 W) or low power (max 32 W, or 53 W with IR) where the site allows. Two-way, full-duplex audio works through speaker pairing or portcast technology.
Typical Applications
- Perimeters and fence lines
