Axis offers fixed dome network camera with megapixel in MPEG-4
Lund, Sweden
Axis 216MFD network cameras are high-performance, megapixel fixed dome solutions delivering more than 3 times higher resolution compared to analog CCTV cameras, perfect for the identification of objects and persons. In addition, the 1.3 megapixel sensor uses progressive scan, which reduces motion blur in comparison with a traditional PAL/NTSC camera providing interlaced video. Axis 216MFD network cameras uniquely offer MPEG-4 and motion JPEG video streams in full megapixel resolution, allowing for optimized image quality and bandwidth efficiency.
"Axis 216MFD network cameras, with their unique, compact design and power over ethernet support, meet the market's strong demand for discreet and easy-to-install fixed dome solutions" says Anders Laurin, executive vice president, corporate strategy, of Axis Communications "They also fulfill the market's need for megapixel resolution providing exceptional image detail, not achievable with analog CCTV cameras"
The standard Axis 216MFD version offers a tamper-resistant plastic cover, suitable for indoor video surveillance, whereas Axis 216MFD-V features a rugged, vandal-resistant casing with a metal base specifically adapted for indoor environments subject to vandalism. The versatile lens suspension allows for smooth installation and precise adjustment of the cameras' viewing angle. Other features include two-way audio with the capability to detect and trigger an alarm if the sound is above or below a configurable level.
Axis network cameras offer the market's most comprehensive set of network capabilities, optimizing the network video solution for security, efficiency and manageability. An example is the IPv6 support, which insures against the growing shortage of IPv4 addresses. Axis 216MFD network cameras are supported by the industry's largest base of application software through the Axis application development partner program, as well as the Axis camera Station video management software. Axis 216MFD network cameras will be available in Q2 through Axis' distribution channels.
