  • Excellent 4K image quality with 31x optical zoom
  • Analytics to detect smoke, fire, and PPE violations
  • Robust and durable in extreme environments
  • Built-in cybersecurity with Axis Edge Vault

Made from marine-grade stainless steel (316L), this robust, durable, and weather-resistant camera can handle extreme temperatures from -60°C to 60 °C (-76 to 140°F). It supports Ethernet and fiber (SFP) connections and 110–230V power. Furthermore, Axis Edge Vault, a hardware-based cybersecurity platform, safeguards the device and offers FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certified secure key storage and operations.
