Product SKU: AXIS T90D30
Product Overview
Installers working on long-range Axis network camera deployments will find the AXIS T90D30 PoE IR-LED a purpose-built solution for scenes where camera-integrated IR falls short in either distance or spread. Powered entirely over a single Ethernet cable using High Power over Ethernet, the T90D30 delivers 850nm semi-covert infrared illumination without requiring a separate mains power run at the mounting point. Featuring a pre-mounted 10° lens with 3 additional diverging lenses included at 35°, 60°, and 80°, the beam angle can be matched to the camera’s confirmed field of view, with IR coverage ranging from 70m using the 80° lens up to 350m using the pre-mounted 10° lens. Rated to IP66, NEMA 4X, and IK09, and built to operate across -50°C to 50°C, the T90D30 is engineered for long-term outdoor use across exposed perimeter, industrial, and commercial environments. Post-installation adjustment of power level, photocell sensitivity, and timer settings is available via integrated push buttons or remote control.
Key Capabilities
850nm Semi-Covert IR at Up to 350m
The T90D30 uses 850nm infrared LEDs to illuminate scenes up to 350m with the pre-mounted 10° lens fitted. This wavelength provides strong IR output for compatible Axis cameras while remaining less conspicuous than visible white light, making it practical for perimeter fence lines, access roads, and gated entries where drawing attention to the illuminator is undesirable.
Interchangeable Lens System for Precise Beam Matching
Four lenses ship with the unit at 10°, 35°, 60°, and 80°, covering IR distances from 70m to 350m. Matching the beam angle to the camera’s actual field of view reduces wasted IR output and limits foreground overexposure, which directly affects how usable the recorded footage is after dark across different scene widths and distances.
High Power PoE Operation Up to 60W
The T90D30 draws up to 60W from a compatible Axis High Power over Ethernet midspan or switch, with maximum light power consumption of 49W and standby draw of 2.2W. Single-cable power and data delivery removes the need for a mains connection at the illuminator, which simplifies pole, fence, and wall bracket installations away from power outlets.
IP66, NEMA 4X, and IK09 Outdoor Protection
Full dust and water ingress protection, corrosion resistance, and IK09 impact resistance allow the T90D30 to operate in exposed industrial yards, transport depots, car parks, and building exteriors without requiring an additional protective housing. The -50°C to 50°C operating range covers extreme temperature conditions across Australian climate zones.
Post-Installation Output Control
Power level, photocell sensitivity, and timer settings are adjustable via integrated push buttons or remote control after the unit is mounted. This allows an installer or site manager to fine-tune illumination output to match seasonal daylight changes, camera sensitivity adjustments, or site lighting conditions without removing the unit from its bracket.
Best For
- Long-Range Perimeter and Fence Line Surveillance: The pre-mounted 10° lens delivers up to 350m of IR coverage along narrow fence lines, restricted boundaries, and gate approaches where camera-integrated IR cannot reach the required distance.
- Exposed Industrial and Transport Sites: IP66, NEMA 4X, and IK09 ratings combined with the -50°C to 50°C operating range suit the T90D30 to industrial yards, loading docks, rail depots, and roadside infrastructure where durability under variable conditions is essential.
- Axis PoE Network Deployments Without Nearby Power: Sites using compatible Axis High Power over Ethernet infrastructure can install the T90D30 at pole, fence, or wall bracket locations where a mains power outlet is not accessible, using only the existing Ethernet cable run.
- Multi-Zone Installations Requiring Variable Beam Angles: The interchangeable lens system allows a single illuminator model to serve both narrow long-range scenes and wider short-range areas across the same site, reducing the number of different illuminator products needed across a multi-zone Axis deployment.
Why Choose the AXIS T90D30 PoE IR-LED
The AXIS T90D30 PoE IR-LED is a purpose-engineered infrared illuminator for professional Axis camera installations where built-in IR coverage is insufficient in either reach or angle. Unlike fixed-beam illuminators with no adjustment, the T90D30 ships with 4 interchangeable diverging lenses covering 10° to 80°, and allows post-mount control of power level, photocell sensitivity, and timer via push button or remote. The 850nm output delivers confirmed illumination from 70m at 80° up to 350m at 10°, giving the installer precise control over both beam spread and IR distance. IP66, NEMA 4X, and IK09 ratings confirm long-term suitability in demanding outdoor environments, and the High Power PoE input eliminates the need for separate mains cabling at exposed mounting positions. Backed by a 5-year Axis warranty and available at Security Wholesalers, the T90D30 is built exclusively for Axis network cameras fitted with an infrared-cut filter.
Buyer Decision Tips
Match the Lens to the Camera’s Field of View Before Installation: Confirm the paired camera’s actual field of view before selecting which lens to fit. A narrow-angle camera benefits from the 10° or 35° lens to maximise IR reach, while a wide-angle camera requires the 60° or 80° lens to spread illumination evenly across the full scene. Fitting a lens that is too narrow for the camera’s view results in overexposed foregrounds and underlit edges, regardless of the illuminator’s power output.
Confirm High Power PoE Availability at the Switch or Midspan: The T90D30 requires a High Power over Ethernet source delivering up to 60W. Standard PoE at 15.4W and PoE+ at 30W are both insufficient to operate this illuminator. Verify that the Axis PoE midspan or switch serving the installation point supports the required High Power over Ethernet class before running cable or ordering mounting hardware.

Ideal Use Cases
Perimeter Fence Lines and Restricted Boundaries
The pre-mounted 10° lens concentrates IR output along narrow approaches up to 350m, covering fence lines, outer site boundaries, and gated entry corridors where camera-mounted IR is unable to reach the required distance. IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings ensure the unit performs consistently in exposed perimeter environments over long deployment periods.
Industrial Yards and Loading Docks
The 35° or 60° lens options balance IR reach with scene width for industrial yard monitoring and loading dock coverage. IK09 impact resistance provides added durability at locations where the illuminator may be exposed to accidental contact from vehicles, forklifts, or moving equipment operating nearby.
Car Parks and Outdoor Vehicle Areas
Vehicle lanes, entry and exit points, and pedestrian routes within car parks suit the 60° or 80° lens depending on the paired camera’s field of view. Matching the lens angle to the camera avoids overexposed foreground areas and ensures usable footage across the full monitored zone throughout the night.
Transport and Infrastructure Sites
Rail depots, bus yards, service compounds, and roadside camera installations benefit from the T90D30’s -50°C to 50°C operating range alongside its IP66 and NEMA 4X weather resistance. The 10° or 35° lens suits roadway approaches and vehicle entry monitoring where distances exceed standard camera IR capability.
Commercial Building Exteriors Without Mains Access
External doors, roller shutters, delivery areas, and access paths on commercial building exteriors benefit from improved after-dark coverage when the T90D30 is wall or bracket mounted alongside a compatible Axis camera. High Power PoE delivery removes the need for a separate mains connection at the mounting point.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: Your Axis camera has an infrared-cut filter and its built-in IR cannot reach the required scene distance or spread evenly across the camera’s field of view, and your site uses Axis PoE infrastructure capable of supplying High Power over Ethernet at up to 60W.
- Choose a different model if: Your PoE switch or midspan cannot supply High Power over Ethernet at the required wattage. Standard PoE at 15.4W and PoE+ at 30W are both insufficient to operate the T90D30, and a lower-power illuminator matched to the available power class should be assessed instead.
- Choose a different model if: The camera being supported is not an Axis camera with an infrared-cut filter. This illuminator is designed for use within Axis network camera deployments, and compatibility outside that ecosystem is not confirmed.
FAQs
- What does the AXIS T90D30 do that a camera’s built-in IR cannot?
The T90D30 is a dedicated 850nm IR illuminator that extends night-time coverage well beyond what integrated camera IR can deliver. With the pre-mounted 10° lens, it illuminates up to 350m along narrow approaches such as fence lines, access roads, and gated entries. It also allows the beam angle to be matched precisely to the camera’s field of view using 4 included interchangeable lenses, which integrated IR systems cannot replicate.
- How much PoE power does the T90D30 require, and will a standard PoE or PoE+ switch be sufficient?
The T90D30 requires a High Power over Ethernet source capable of delivering up to 60W. Maximum light power consumption is 49W, with standby draw of 2.2W. Standard PoE at 15.4W and PoE+ at 30W are both insufficient. The unit must be connected to a compatible Axis PoE midspan or switch that supports the required High Power over Ethernet class before installation proceeds.
- Which lenses are included, and is the 120° lens part of the standard package?
The T90D30 ships with a pre-mounted 10° lens and includes 35°, 60°, and 80° diverging lenses at no additional cost. The 120° lens, which provides coverage up to 45m across very wide short-range scenes, is an optional accessory sold separately and is not included in the standard package.
- Can the T90D30’s output settings be adjusted once the unit is mounted on site?
Yes. The T90D30 includes integrated push buttons and supports remote control for adjusting power level, photocell sensitivity, and timer settings after installation. This allows fine-tuning to match seasonal daylight changes, site lighting adjustments, or camera sensitivity settings without removing the illuminator from its mounting bracket.
- Is the T90D30 suited to outdoor industrial environments, and what protection ratings does it carry?
Yes. The illuminator is rated IP66 for dust and water ingress protection, NEMA 4X for corrosion resistance, and IK09 for impact resistance. It operates across a temperature range of -50°C to 50°C, making it suited to exposed perimeter locations, industrial yards, transport sites, car parks, and building exteriors across variable Australian climate conditions without requiring a separate protective enclosure.
