Product SKU: 01765-001
Product Overview
In environments where people need to know when they are being monitored, the AXIS I/O Indication LED provides a clear, configurable visual signal that a connected Axis camera is active, recording, or responding to a triggered event. Supplied as a pack of 4 units under part number 01765-001, this compact accessory connects to the I/O port of a compatible Axis camera and can be configured through the camera’s own settings. When triggered, it displays a red LED, giving a direct and unambiguous indication of surveillance activity. It supports event-based activation, including motion detection and audio detection, so the LED can light up only when a specific condition is met rather than continuously. Installation is straightforward using an adhesive strip and a single cable, making it practical for retrofitting into existing Axis deployments without additional infrastructure. It is well suited to healthcare rooms, retail spaces, public corridors, transport hubs, and any location where visible recording status is a legal, ethical, or operational requirement.
Key Capabilities
I/O Port Integration
Connects directly to the I/O port of a compatible Axis camera via a single cable. No separate power supply or controller is required, keeping installation clean and contained within the existing camera setup.
Event-Triggered Activation
The LED can be configured to activate in response to camera events including motion detection and audio detection. This allows the indicator to alert bystanders only when surveillance is actively triggered, rather than signalling continuously throughout the day.
Privacy Compliance Signalling
A clearly visible red LED signal helps organisations meet obligations around notifying individuals when surveillance is in operation. This is particularly relevant in healthcare, interview, and treatment settings where consent and transparency are required.
Adhesive-Strip Mounting
Quick to position using an adhesive strip, with no drilling or bracket hardware required. The compact form factor allows discreet surface mounting near the camera in locations where wall or ceiling modification is not practical.
Best For
- Healthcare and Treatment Rooms: Provides visible confirmation of when a patient or client is being monitored, supporting privacy transparency in clinical and care environments.
- Retail and Commercial Areas: Acts as a deterrent indicator in stores, rear exits, and staff-only zones by making the recording status immediately visible to anyone in the space.
- Transport Hubs and Public Corridors: Supports visible surveillance signage obligations in high-traffic public areas where individuals should be informed of active monitoring.
- Existing Axis Camera Deployments: Designed as a retrofit accessory for compatible Axis cameras with I/O ports, allowing installers to add recording status indication without replacing cameras or adding separate hardware.
Why Choose the AXIS I/O Indication LED (01765-001)
The 01765-001 is a purpose-built accessory from Axis Communications, engineered to integrate directly with compatible Axis cameras rather than relying on generic third-party indicators. Because it connects through the camera’s I/O port and is configured within the camera’s own settings, the LED behaviour is tied directly to camera events rather than operating independently. This means the visual signal is accurate and responsive, whether the camera is continuously recording, triggered by motion, or activated by audio. The pack-of-4 format makes it cost-effective for multi-room deployments such as clinic suites, retail chains, or transport facilities where consistent signalling across multiple cameras is needed. The adhesive-strip mounting and single-cable connection reduce installation time significantly on sites where multiple units are being fitted. Available through Security Wholesalers, the 01765-001 carries the Axis 3-year manufacturer warranty. Note that a 30-day lead time applies, so plan procurement accordingly for time-sensitive projects.
Buyer Decision Tips
Compatibility Check Before Ordering: The AXIS I/O Indication LED requires the connected Axis camera to have a functioning I/O port. Not every Axis camera model supports this connection. Before purchasing, confirm that your specific Axis camera model has an available I/O port and is listed as compatible with this accessory. Also factor in the 30-day lead time when planning installations with a fixed completion date.

Ideal Use Cases
Healthcare Facilities
Hospitals, clinics, and aged care facilities benefit from the LED’s ability to show patients and residents exactly when monitoring is active, supporting duty-of-care obligations and privacy transparency requirements.
Retail and Loss Prevention
A clearly lit recording indicator near a camera in a retail environment acts as a visible deterrent. The event-triggered activation means the LED draws attention at the moment motion or audio is detected in the monitored area.
Transport and Public Spaces
Airports, train stations, bus depots, and public corridors where signage obligations apply can use this accessory to provide a clear, live indication that surveillance is operating, without relying on static signage alone.
Interview and Consultation Rooms
Legal, medical, and HR interview environments where it must be demonstrably clear to all parties that recording is taking place can use the 01765-001 as a live status indicator connected directly to the room’s Axis camera.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You are working with compatible Axis cameras that have available I/O ports and need a pack of 4 recording status indicators that integrate directly with the camera’s event configuration, particularly in healthcare, retail, or public-facing environments.
- Choose a different approach if: Your cameras do not have I/O ports, or you are working with non-Axis cameras. In those cases, a standalone recording indicator light or a separate signage-based solution would be more appropriate, as the 01765-001 requires direct I/O port connectivity to an Axis device.
FAQs
- Is the AXIS I/O Indication LED a camera?
No. The 01765-001 is a standalone LED indicator accessory only. It does not capture, record, or transmit video. It is designed to connect to a compatible Axis camera or I/O-capable Axis device and visually signal when that camera is active, recording, or responding to a configured event. - How many units are included in this purchase?
This listing supplies a pack of 4 AXIS I/O Indication LED units under part number 01765-001. This makes it well suited to multi-room or multi-camera installations where consistent recording status indication is needed across several locations. - What does the LED actually display?
When triggered, the indicator displays a red LED. The activation condition is configured through the connected Axis camera’s own settings, so the LED can be set to show continuously during recording, or only when a specific event such as motion detection or audio detection occurs. - Does every Axis camera work with this accessory?
No. The 01765-001 requires the camera to have a compatible I/O port. Not all Axis camera models include this port. Always verify compatibility with your specific Axis camera model before ordering. Contact Security Wholesalers if you need assistance confirming whether your camera model is supported. - How is the LED physically mounted?
Installation uses an adhesive strip to fix the LED to a surface, combined with a single cable connection to the camera’s I/O port. No drilling or mounting brackets are required, which makes it straightforward to position near the camera in a range of indoor locations. - Is there a lead time for this product?
Yes. A 30-day lead time applies to the 01765-001. This should be factored into project timelines, particularly for installations with a fixed completion date such as healthcare fit-outs, retail refurbishments, or staged transport infrastructure upgrades.
