Advanced Imaging Technology
The AXIS P3265‑LVE features a 1/2.8″ progressive‑scan RGB CMOS sensor delivering Full HD 1080p video at up to 60 fps. It combines Lightfinder 2.0 for vivid low-light color imaging, Forensic WDR (up to 120 dB) for shadow/glare handling, and Optimized IR illumination for sharp black-and-white video in total darkness.
Lens Options & Flexibility
Available with either a 3.4–8.9 mm varifocal lens (approximately 100°–36° horizontal field of view) or a 9–22 mm telephoto lens (approximately 35°–15° horizontal field of view), both IR‑corrected and featuring P‑Iris control. Remote zoom, focus, pan, tilt, and rotation capabilities simplify installation and allow optimal framing after mounting.
Deep Learning on the Edge
Powered by an ARTPEC‑8 SoC with an integrated deep learning processing unit (DLPU), this camera runs AXIS Object Analytics to detect, classify, count, and track humans and vehicles in real time—directly on-device.
Audio & I/O Integration
Includes support for audio capture and detection via built-in terminal input and output ports. Allows integration with external devices or triggers like gates, speakers, and alarms.
Compression & Storage Efficiency
Supports H.264, H.265, and Motion JPEG streaming, with Zipstream to reduce bandwidth and storage consumption while maintaining image detail. Capable of up to 20 configurable streams, with adjustable bitrate settings (VBR, ABR, MBR), and onboard microSD storage for edge recording.
Security & Build Resilience
Designed for demanding outdoor environments, the camera is IP66-, IK10-, and NEMA 4X-rated, operating reliably from −40 °C to 50 °C. Axis Edge Vault ensures secure boot, signed firmware, and a FIPS-level secure keystore to protect against tampering and cyber threats.
Day/Night & Installation Features
Auto IR-cut filter enables seamless transition between day and night. Adjustable shutter (1/66500 s to 2 s), exposure control, defog, WDR tone mapping, barrel distortion correction, corridor mode, privacy masks, pixel counter, and digital PTZ features support detailed forensic use and flexible mounting.
Open Platform & Integration Tools
Supports Axis’ open API (VAPIX), ONVIF Profiles G, M, S, T, and the AXIS Camera Application Platform (ACAP) for custom computer vision apps. Compatible with major video management systems (VMS) and Axis tools like Device Manager and Site Designer.
