AXIS Q2802-E VGA Thermal 4K Bispectral Camera, 31° 8.3 fps, 03601-001

AXIS Q2802-E 31° HFoV 8.3 fps Bispectral Camera – VGA Thermal Detection and 4K Visual Verification

The AXIS Q2802-E 31° HFoV 8.3 fps (03601-001) puts a 640x480 thermal camera with a 19 mm lens (31° horizontal view) and a 4K visual camera in one outdoor housing, with the thermal channel streaming at up to 8.3 fps. The thermal stream detects intruders by their heat with NETD under 20 mK, while the 4K visual stream and thermal visual image fusion help operators verify what triggered an alarm. AXIS Object Analytics runs on a deep learning processing unit, and the IP66/IP67, NEMA 4X and IK10-rated casing suits perimeters, fence lines and critical sites that must be watched in total darkness.

High-Sensitivity VGA Thermal Detection

The uncooled 640x480 microbolometer (17 μm pixels, 8–14 μm spectral range) reaches NETD under 20 mK, so it picks up heat with a low false alarm rate in darkness and bad weather. This version uses an athermalized 19 mm, f1.0 lens with a 31° horizontal and 24° vertical view and streams thermal video at up to 8.3 fps. Axis rates detection at up to 559 m (1834 ft) for a person and 1596 m (5235 ft) for a vehicle (Johnson’s criteria).

4K Visual Verification and Image Fusion

A 1/1.2″ progressive scan RGB CMOS sensor with a fixed, 13.8 mm, f2.9 lens (46° horizontal view) delivers up to 3840x2160 at 25/30 fps, with Lightfinder 2.0, Forensic WDR up to 120 dB and color down to 0.05 lux. Thermal visual image fusion blends the two images into one view for faster scene understanding, and both channels stream in H.264, H.265 or Motion JPEG with Axis Zipstream.

AI Analytics on the Edge

The ARTPEC-8 system-on-chip with a deep learning processing unit runs AXIS Object Analytics on the visual stream to detect, classify, track and count humans and vehicles in up to 10 scenarios, plus AXIS Image Health Analytics, AXIS Scene Metadata, AXIS Video Motion Detection and audio detection. AXIS Perimeter Defender is supported on the thermal stream for long-range detection and classification of intruders.

Cybersecurity with Axis Edge Vault

Axis Edge Vault protects the device with a secure element (CC EAL 6+, FIPS 140-3 Level 3), Axis device ID, signed video, secure boot and an encrypted filesystem. Signed OS, IEEE 802.1X, IEEE 802.1AE MACsec, HTTPS/HSTS and TLS 1.2/1.3 secure the network side, and the camera is TAA compliant.

Rugged, Flexible Installation

The aluminum and plastic casing is IP66/IP67, NEMA 4X and IK10 rated (excluding front window), runs from -40 °C to 60 °C at full power and has been wind-tunnel tested at 60 m/s (134 mph) sustained. It runs on PoE Class 4 or 10–28 VDC and ships with a weathershield. No mount is included: install it on a wall or pole mount, or on an AXIS TQ1818-E positioning unit for pan/tilt coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions About AXIS Q2802-E 31° HFoV 8.3 fps

What thermal resolution does the AXIS Q2802-E 31° HFoV 8.3 fps have?

640x480 pixels from an uncooled microbolometer with 17 μm pixels and NETD under 20 mK; the thermal image can be scaled up to 768x578.

What is the visual resolution?

A 1/1.2″ RGB CMOS sensor gives up to 3840x2160 (4K) at 25/30 fps.

Which thermal lens does the 31° HFoV version use?

An athermalized 19 mm, f1.0 lens with a 31° horizontal and 24° vertical field of view and a minimum focus distance of 8.5 m (28 ft).

How far can it detect a person or vehicle?

With 1.5 pixels on target, Axis rates theoretical detection at up to 559 m (1834 ft) for a person and 1596 m (5235 ft) for a vehicle, calculated with Johnson’s criteria. Actual range depends on weather and the scene; AXIS Site Designer helps plan it.

What is the thermal frame rate of this version?

Up to 8.3 fps for the thermal stream on this version (03601-001); the visual stream runs at up to 25/30 fps. The same 31° lens is also made in a 30 fps version (03602-001).

What is thermal visual image fusion?

A mode that fuses the thermal and visual images into one image, so operators see heat signatures and visual detail in the same view.

How is it powered?

By PoE (IEEE 802.3af/802.3at Type 1 Class 4, max 25.5 W) or 10–28 VDC.

Does it come with a mount?

No. Mounting accessories are sold separately, such as the AXIS TQ1003-E Wall Mount or the AXIS TQ1818-E positioning unit.
