"The Axis M1145-L and Axis M1145 with full HDTV 1080p resolution provide an affordable solution for efficient 24/7 monitoring with clear identification," says Erik Frännlid, Axis' Director of Product Management. "The Axis M1145-L features built-in IR LED illumination invisible to the human eye and ideal for discovering people and objects in a range of up to 15 metres (50ft.), even in complete darkness."

With their slim and compact design, the cameras enable quick and easy installation, simple setup and a trouble-free video surveillance solution for applications where monitoring is required round-the-clock. To minimize environmental impact, the plastic parts in Axis M1145-L and Axis M1145 contain 39% respectively 42% recycled plastic.

The Axis M1145-L and AXIS M1145 fixed network cameras provide HDTV 1080p resolution video at full frame rate and offer multiple H.264 and Motion JPEG streams which can be individually optimized for bandwidth and storage efficiency. Additional features include support for edge storage with a built-in microSD/SDHC memory card slot, pixel counter, Axis Corridor Format, Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) and I/O port for PIR sensor options.

Further features of the AXIS M1145-L and AXIS M1145 include optimisedIR, a power-efficient LED technology that provides an adaptable angle of IR illumination; a P-Iris lens for optimal depth of field, resolution, image contrast and clarity; remote 3.5x optical zoom ensures that the camera's angle of view is optimised for the area to be monitored.
