AXIS P4707-PLVE Panoramic Camera Dual-sensor with 360° IR and deep learning

Product SKU: AXIS P4707-PLVE

Product Overview

The AXIS P4707-PLVE is a dual-sensor 5MP multidirectional panoramic camera designed to deliver flexible wide-area surveillance from a single compact device. It combines two 5MP camera channels with one IP address, 360° IR illumination, 2.5x zoom, Axis Lightfinder, Forensic WDR, H.264/H.265 Zipstream, and support for analytics with deep learning on both sensors. With its outdoor-ready design, rugged construction, and ability to monitor two directions simultaneously, this camera is ideal for car parks, corridors, entrances, schools, retail sites, warehouses, building corners, transport areas, and large commercial environments.

Why Choose the AXIS P4707-PLVE

The AXIS P4707-PLVE is ideal for customers who need flexible dual-direction monitoring without installing multiple separate cameras. Its two 5MP sensors can capture both wide overviews and zoomed-in detailed views, while 360° IR illumination supports clear footage in low light and complete darkness. Built on Axis’ ARTPEC-8 platform, it supports advanced analytics based on deep learning directly on the edge. This helps improve detection accuracy, reduce irrelevant alerts, and make recorded footage easier to search, while still simplifying installation with one device, one network connection, and one IP address.

Key Capabilities

Key Features

• 2 x 5MP Imaging: The AXIS P4707-PLVE provides two 5MP camera channels in one compact multidirectional unit. This allows installers to monitor two separate directions or combine a wider overview with a more focused view, making it useful for corners, corridors, entrances, outdoor approaches, and commercial spaces.

• One IP Address: Because both sensors operate through one camera and one IP address, the AXIS P4707-PLVE can reduce system complexity. It may help lower installation effort, network configuration time, switch port usage, and VMS licensing compared with deploying multiple separate cameras for similar coverage.

• 360° IR Illumination: Integrated 360° IR illumination supports clear images in low light and complete darkness. This helps the camera provide reliable night-time coverage across both viewing directions, supporting applications such as car parks, loading zones, walkways, building corners, entrances, and public areas.

• 2.5x Zoom: The 2.5x zoom gives installers flexibility to adjust the view for each scene, balancing wider situational awareness with more targeted detail. This makes the camera suitable for locations where the viewing direction and field of view need to be tailored during setup.

• Deep Learning Analytics: The camera supports analytics based on deep learning on both sensors, enabling more intelligent event detection and classification directly on the edge. This helps improve alert relevance, supports more efficient forensic searches, and assists operators in focusing on meaningful activity.

• Lightfinder and Forensic WDR: Lightfinder helps retain useful colour detail in low-light scenes, while Forensic WDR improves visibility in high-contrast conditions. Together, these technologies help produce more usable footage in real-world environments affected by mixed lighting, shadows, sunlight, and bright entrances.

• Zipstream with H.264 and H.265: Axis Zipstream works with H.264 and H.265 compression to reduce bandwidth and storage requirements while preserving important image detail. This is especially valuable for multi-sensor cameras, where multiple video streams can increase storage and network load.

• Professional Outdoor-Ready Design: The AXIS P4707-PLVE is built for demanding surveillance environments and is suitable for outdoor or indoor use. Its compact multidirectional design allows effective dual-view coverage while keeping installation neat and reducing the visual and physical footprint compared with multiple separate cameras.

Specifications Summary

Ideal Use Cases

• Building Corners – Suitable for monitoring two directions from one corner-mounted device, reducing the need for separate cameras on each wall or approach path.
• Car Parks and Driveways – Useful for vehicle entries, pedestrian movement, car park lanes, driveways, and outdoor areas where dual-direction views and night visibility are important.
• Retail and Shopping Areas – Ideal for entrances, store fronts, aisles, corridors, service areas, and shared spaces where wide coverage and intelligent analytics can improve monitoring.
• Schools and Campuses – A practical option for hallways, courtyards, building entries, covered outdoor areas, and common zones requiring dual-view surveillance from a compact camera.
• Warehouses and Industrial Sites – Suitable for loading docks, internal intersections, yards, stock areas, and access points where two directions need to be monitored from one installation point.

Understanding the Dual-Sensor Multidirectional Camera System

The AXIS P4707-PLVE uses two individually adjustable sensors instead of one fixed-view lens. This allows the camera to monitor two separate directions from one physical device, making it useful for building corners, corridors, entrances, car parks, loading zones, and outdoor approaches. The 2.5x zoom helps installers fine-tune each view to suit the scene, while the dual-sensor design can reduce the need for multiple separate cameras.

Tip:
Use the two sensors to cover different directions when overall situational awareness is the priority. Aim one sensor toward a wide overview and the other toward a more important point of interest when the site needs both context and detail, such as at a gate, doorway, service counter, vehicle entry, or corridor intersection.

FAQs

1. What is the AXIS P4707-PLVE best suited for?
   The AXIS P4707-PLVE is best suited for locations where two directions need to be monitored from one compact device. It is ideal for building corners, corridors, entrances, car parks, loading areas, schools, retail sites, warehouses, and commercial environments where installing two separate cameras would increase cabling, hardware, switch ports, configuration, and maintenance.
2. How many sensors does the AXIS P4707-PLVE have?
   The AXIS P4707-PLVE includes two 5MP sensors in one multidirectional camera. This allows the camera to capture two separate views while using one IP address and one network connection. The design is useful when one installation point needs to cover two directions or provide both an overview and a more focused scene.
3. Does the AXIS P4707-PLVE have built-in IR?
   Yes, the AXIS P4707-PLVE includes 360° IR illumination, allowing it to capture usable black-and-white footage in low light or complete darkness. This supports around-the-clock monitoring across both camera views and is valuable for outdoor entrances, car parks, walkways, loading zones, corridors, and areas with inconsistent lighting.
4. Does this camera support deep learning analytics?
   Yes, the AXIS P4707-PLVE supports analytics with deep learning on both sensors. This allows compatible analytics to process events directly on the camera, helping detect and classify relevant activity more effectively. It can reduce unnecessary alerts and make recorded footage easier to search during investigations.
5. What is the benefit of using one dual-sensor camera instead of two separate cameras?
   A dual-sensor camera can reduce installation complexity because it provides two camera views from one device, one network cable, and one IP address. This can reduce cabling, network ports, mounting hardware, setup time, and VMS licensing needs compared with installing two individual cameras in similar positions.
6. Is the AXIS P4707-PLVE suitable for challenging lighting?
   Yes, the AXIS P4707-PLVE includes Axis Lightfinder and Forensic WDR. Lightfinder helps maintain useful colour images in low-light conditions, while Forensic WDR improves visibility in high-contrast scenes. Together with 360° IR illumination, these technologies help support dependable imaging during the day, at night, and in mixed lighting conditions.
