Product Overview
Managing body worn cameras between shifts demands a reliable, fast, and secure docking solution. The AXIS W702 1-Bay Docking Station is designed to handle both fast charging and high-speed data offload for Axis body worn cameras from a single compact unit. Featuring 100 Mbit/s throughput and a pogo pin connection interface, it allows recorded footage to transfer quickly and securely as soon as the camera is docked. The unit connects to the network via a shielded RJ45 port and is compatible with the separately available AXIS W800 System Controller, enabling centralised fleet management. Splash-proof construction and a PVC-free plastic casing make it suited to everyday administrative environments such as police stations, security guard rooms, and corporate control rooms. Weighing just 125 g, the W702 sits neatly on a desk or shelf without taking up significant workspace, making it a practical single-officer docking point within a broader body worn camera deployment.
Key Capabilities
Fast Charging
Powered at 5 V DC with a maximum draw of 15 W, the W702 charges a docked body worn camera quickly so officers can return to duty without long downtime between shifts. The pogo pin pad connection ensures a clean, tool-free dock every time.
100 Mbit/s Data Offload
With 100 Mbit/s throughput over a shielded RJ45 connection, recorded footage is transferred from the camera to the network quickly and securely as soon as docking occurs. This reduces the administrative burden of manual footage handling at the end of each shift.
AXIS W800 System Controller Compatibility
The W702 integrates with the separately available AXIS W800 System Controller, allowing IT administrators to manage camera firmware, configurations, and footage offload centrally across a body worn camera fleet rather than handling each device individually.
Splash-Proof Construction
The docking station is built to withstand incidental moisture exposure, making it appropriate for environments where equipment may encounter light splashing. Its PVC-free plastic casing meets environmental material standards and operates reliably between 0 and 40 degrees Celsius.
Best For
- Single-Officer Docking Points: The 1-bay capacity makes the W702 suited to individual officer workstations or lockers where each user has a dedicated docking location rather than a shared multi-bay unit.
- Shift-Based Deployments: Fast charging and automatic 100 Mbit/s data offload mean cameras are ready and footage is secured within the shift changeover window, reducing manual handling by supervisors.
- Distributed or Multi-Site Fleets: Where body worn cameras are deployed across several locations, individual W702 units placed at each site allow local docking without requiring all officers to return footage to a central hub.
Why Choose the AXIS W702 1-Bay Docking Station
The AXIS W702 addresses a specific operational gap in body worn camera deployments: the need for a compact, single-bay docking point that handles both charging and data offload automatically. Unlike basic charging cradles, the W702 connects to the network via a shielded RJ45 port and delivers 100 Mbit/s throughput, ensuring footage is transferred to the system as soon as the camera is placed in the dock. Its compatibility with the AXIS W800 System Controller gives administrators centralised control over firmware updates and camera configuration without touching each unit manually. The PVC-free casing, splash-proof rating, and compact 47 x 76 x 95 mm footprint make it easy to integrate into existing desk setups, guard rooms, or locker areas. Available at Security Wholesalers, the W702 is backed by a 3-year warranty and is supplied as the Australian region variant under SKU 02645-006.
Buyer Tip: The W702 is a single-bay unit. If your deployment requires multiple officers to dock cameras simultaneously at the same location, you will need one W702 per officer or investigate whether a multi-bay option is more practical for your site. For centralised fleet management and configuration pushes, pair the W702 with the separately available AXIS W800 System Controller rather than relying on per-device manual setup.

Ideal Use Cases
Police and Law Enforcement
Officers returning from patrol can dock their body worn camera at an individual W702 station. Fast charging and automatic 100 Mbit/s data offload mean footage is secured and the camera is ready for the next shift without manual intervention from supervisors.
Security Guard Rooms
In facilities where security officers rotate through assignments, a W702 placed at each guard station or locker allows individual docking without requiring guards to travel to a central charging room, reducing shift handover time.
Healthcare and Aged Care Facilities
Staff working in environments where de-escalation incidents are documented benefit from a compact desk-mounted docking point. The splash-proof construction and 0 to 40 degree Celsius operating range suit indoor clinical and administrative spaces.
Multi-Site Corporate Deployments
Organisations running body worn cameras across several branches can place individual W702 units at each site. Combined with the AXIS W800 System Controller, administrators can manage all docked cameras and push firmware updates centrally rather than visiting each location.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You need a compact, individual docking point for a single body worn camera that handles both fast charging and automatic data offload over a wired network connection, particularly where desk space is limited or officers have assigned docking locations.
- Choose a different model if: Your deployment requires multiple cameras to dock simultaneously at the same physical location. In that scenario, deploying multiple W702 units or a multi-bay docking solution would be more practical than a single 1-bay station.
FAQs
- What does the AXIS W702 actually do when a camera is docked?
When an Axis body worn camera is placed into the W702, the docking station simultaneously charges the camera and initiates a data offload over the network at up to 100 Mbit/s. This means footage recorded during the shift is transferred to the system automatically without requiring staff to manually copy files or connect any cables beyond the initial dock connection.
- What network connection does the W702 require?
The W702 connects to the network via a shielded RJ45 port supporting 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX. It is designed to sit on a desk or shelf with a standard Ethernet cable running to a network switch. The docking station uses standard protocols including IPv4, IPv6, HTTPS, DHCP, DNS, and NTP, and is compatible with NIST SP500-267 throughput standards.
- Can I use the W702 without the AXIS W800 System Controller?
The W702 can function as a standalone charging and data offload dock without the AXIS W800 System Controller. However, adding the W800 enables centralised fleet management, allowing administrators to push firmware updates and manage camera configurations across all docked units from a single interface rather than handling each camera individually.
- Is the W702 suitable for placement in an outdoor area or wet environment?
The W702 is rated as splash proof and is designed for indoor administrative environments. Its operating temperature range is 0 to 40 degrees Celsius. It is not intended for outdoor mounting or exposure to sustained moisture. Suitable locations include guard rooms, locker areas, office desks, and control rooms.
- How is the W702 powered and what does it draw?
The W702 is powered via a DC input at 5 V DC with a maximum draw of 15 W. It is not a PoE-powered device and requires its own DC power supply. Available through Security Wholesalers, the Australian region variant carries SKU 02645-006 and is covered by Axis’s 3-year warranty.
