The P1357-E 5MP Outdoor Box Camera from AXIS Communications uses a 1/3.2" progressive-scan CMOS sensor for 2592 x 1944 resolution at 12 fps, and it features a 2.8-8mm varifocal lens for a 80° to 32° horizontal field of view. Wide dynamic range, white balance, and backlight compensation features offer high-quality images in ambient lighting, and an external line input and output provides 2-way audio capability. The camera also comes with built-in analytics, such as motion detection, audio detection, active tampering alarm, autotracking, and line crossing. When any of these events occur, the camera will send you an email notification or store video recordings of the event to your edge storage.
The camera compresses footage using H.264 and MJPEG formatting, maximizing your bandwidth and storage. Additionally, video can be streamed in multiple individual streams, and frame rates and bandwidth are controllable for further customizing your network. A microSD slot supports on-site recording, however, the camera can also record remotely to a dedicated NAS. The network is secured with a number of safety features, including password protection, IP address filtering, and HTTPs encryption. PoE technology allows you to transfer both data and power over the same Ethernet cable, minimizing the amount of cables needed during installation, and the camera is IP66- and NEMA 4X-rated weatherproof and IK10-rated impact-resistant for use outdoors and in high-risk areas.
