Axis offers a wide range of high quality network cameras
for securing people and property, remotely monitoring equipment and
facilities, and for sending live images and sounds for remote learning,
troubleshooting or Web broadcasting.
What is a network
camera?

An Axis network camera can be described as a camera and
computer combined in one intelligent unit. It captures and sends live video
directly over an IP network such as a LAN, intranet or the Internet and
enables users to view and/or manage the camera using a standard Web
browser or video management software on any local or remote computer on a
network. It allows authorized viewers from different locations to
simultaneously access images from the same network camera.
Superior image
quality
Image quality is clearly one of the most important
features of any camera, if not the most important. This is particularly so
in surveillance and monitoring applications, where lives and property may
be at stake.

Axis has ever since the development of network cameras
first began, introduced a stream of image enhancing technologies and
patents. One of our key goals is to continue to innovate and focus on our
image quality market leadership. The best way to experience Axis'
superior image quality is to try our cameras and see for yourself.
A world of
endless possibilities

Flexible and powerful, Axis network video solutions enable
you to remotely and cost-effectively monitor and secure people, property
and industrial processes. You can use it to conduct remote education or
troubleshooting, or broadcast sights and sounds on a Web site. How to
design a network video system depends on your application need and level
of complexity.
True IP network
cameras
With a built-in Web server, Axis network cameras do not
need a direct connection to a PC or any other hardware or software to capture
and transfer images. They operate as stand-alone units and require only a
connection to an IP network by wired or wireless means.

Images can be
stored either on the hard disks connected to a PC or a dedicated storage
server on the network. With Power over Ethernet, you have the option of
using the same Ethernet cable both for data communications as well as
power. This feature makes it easier to install products since an
electrician is not required and the network video product is able to
operate even when there is a power failure.
