The AXIS C8310 Volume Controller is an easy-to-use network audio control panel designed to give local staff quick access to volume adjustment, mute control and audio source selection within Axis audio zones. It features touch-style tactile buttons for volume up, volume down, mute and three preconfigured audio sources, with backlit visual feedback showing selected source and mute status. Connected through the I/O port of a compatible Axis network audio product, the AXIS C8310 is ideal for schools, retail stores, cafés, hospitality venues, offices, warehouses, public facilities and commercial spaces where staff need simple local audio control without logging into software.
Why Choose the AXIS C8310 Volume Controller
The AXIS C8310 is ideal for organisations that need convenient local control over an Axis audio zone. It allows authorised on-site staff to adjust volume, mute audio and switch between up to three preconfigured sources without needing access to AXIS Audio Manager software. This is useful in areas where noise levels, occupancy or audio needs change throughout the day, such as retail stores, classrooms, cafés, waiting rooms and public areas. Tactile feedback confirms button presses, while backlit buttons make source and mute status easy to see. Because volume range and source availability are controlled in AXIS Audio Manager Edge, the system remains manageable while still giving staff practical local control.
Key Capabilities
Local Volume Adjustment
The AXIS C8310 allows staff to raise, lower or mute the volume in an assigned audio zone directly from the wall controller. This is useful where ambient noise changes during the day or where local teams need quick control without accessing audio management software.
Three Audio Source Buttons
Three numbered source buttons allow users to switch between preconfigured audio sources such as background music, TV audio, laptop audio or scheduled content. The allowed sources are managed through AXIS Audio Manager Edge, helping maintain system control while allowing simple local selection.
Tactile and Visual Feedback
Tactile button feedback confirms a key press, while backlit indicators show the selected audio source and active mute status. This makes the controller easy to use in daily operations and helps staff confirm settings at a glance without needing a separate display or software interface.
I/O Port Connection
The controller connects to a compatible Axis network audio product through an I/O connector. This makes it a practical accessory for Axis network speakers, network audio amplifiers and audio bridges where local wall control is needed for a specific audio zone.
Wall or Recessed Mounting
The AXIS C8310 supports wall-mounted installation or recessed installation in a gangbox or compatible I/O connection box. This allows installers to create a neat, professional control point in classrooms, retail counters, reception areas, staff zones and public audio spaces.
Key Features
Easy Network Volume Control: The AXIS C8310 gives local staff a simple way to adjust volume in an assigned Axis audio zone. This removes the need to log into software for everyday adjustments and helps match audio levels to occupancy, background noise or operational requirements.
Mute Button: A dedicated mute button allows users to quickly silence the assigned audio zone when required. This is useful for meetings, announcements, quiet periods, customer conversations, classroom activities or temporary situations where background audio needs to be paused immediately.
Three Preconfigured Source Buttons: The controller includes three source selection buttons for switching between approved audio sources. This makes it practical for spaces that move between background music, announcement feeds, TV sound, laptop content or other preconfigured audio sources during the day.
Backlit Visual Status: Backlit buttons provide visual confirmation of the selected source and mute status. This helps users understand the current audio state at a glance and reduces confusion when multiple staff members use the same local controller across different shifts.
Tactile Selection Feedback: Tactile feedback confirms when a button has been pressed, making the controller easier to operate confidently. This is valuable in busy environments where staff may need to make quick adjustments without focusing on a software interface.
AXIS Audio Manager Edge Control: The controller is assigned to music zones in AXIS Audio Manager Edge, where allowed sources and volume range are defined. This gives administrators central control while still allowing local users to make approved day-to-day adjustments.
Compatible with Axis Network Audio Products: The unit can connect to compatible Axis network audio products with an I/O connector and firmware 11.6 or later. This makes it suitable for selected Axis network speakers, audio bridges and network audio amplifiers within the Axis audio ecosystem.
I/O Port Connection: The AXIS C8310 connects using a 4-pin terminal block to the host Axis network audio device. Power is supplied from the connected device, helping keep the controller simple and avoiding the need for a separate power supply at the wall control point.
Flexible Mounting Options: The controller can be wall mounted or recessed into a single gangbox or I/O connection box, depending on the installation requirement. This allows a clean finish in commercial, education, hospitality and public-space environments.
Practical for Local Staff Control: By offering straightforward local control without software access, the AXIS C8310 helps everyday users manage audio safely and consistently. This is especially useful where staff need limited control while administrators maintain full system settings centrally.

Understanding Local Audio Zone Control
The AXIS C8310 is used when staff need simple local control over an Axis audio zone without being given access to the full audio management system. Administrators define the allowed sources and volume range in AXIS Audio Manager Edge, then users can adjust volume, mute audio or select from the available source buttons at the wall controller. This creates a balance between central system control and practical everyday operation for local teams.
