Axis M3126‑LVE 4 MP Turret Dome Camera | AI‑powered Outdoor Surveillance

Overview

The AXIS M3126‑LVE Dome Camera delivers high-resolution 4 MP imaging through a 1/2.7″ CMOS sensor and a wide 130° field of view, ideal for broad surveillance zones. Equipped with Axis Lightfinder and WDR technology, it captures crisp, color-rich video even in challenging light conditions. Built-in OptimizedIR provides automatic, intelligent infrared illumination for clear black‑and‑white imaging in complete darkness up to 20 m or more.

Powered by a deep learning processing unit (DLPU), the camera comes preinstalled with AXIS Object Analytics to detect, classify, track, and count humans and vehicles. The dataset facilitates fast and efficient forensic search using edge-based metadata. Cybersecurity is hardened with Axis Edge Vault hardware (FIPS 140‑3 Level 3 secure keystore, secure boot, signed OS), offering strong device identity and protection.

Compact and discreet, the unit is available in black or white, supports flexible indoor/outdoor mounting via pendant, conduit, or recessed kits, and withstands environmental stress with an IP66 weatherproof and IK08 vandal-resistant design, operating from –30 °C to 50 °C.

Supports H.264, H.265, and Motion JPEG, Axis Zipstream technology for optimized bandwidth/storage, corridor formats, privacy masks, overlays, dual-region streaming, and local storage via microSD or NAS.
