Axis Introduces 5-Megapixel Fixed Domes with Outstanding Light Sensitivity and Precise Iris Control

Vandal-resistant, indoor and outdoor-ready models leverage H.264, digital PTZ, and P-Iris to provide large area coverage with high image detail

CHELMSFORD, Mass. – May 17, 2011 – Axis Communications, the global leader in the network video market, today introduces 5-megapixel fixed dome network cameras with precise iris control for optimal image clarity. The indoor AXIS P3367-V and outdoor-ready AXIS P3367-VE Fixed Dome Network Cameras – both of which come in vandal-resistant housings – are suitable for any application that requires video surveillance coverage of a large area or extremely high image detail in a limited area, such as in airport halls, train stations, city surveillance installations, school buildings and campuses.

The day and night fixed domes deliver 5-megapixel resolution video at 12 frames per second and support HDTV 1080p video at 30 frames per second. To help minimize bandwidth and storage needs, AXIS P3367-V/-VE cameras feature H.264 video compression, powerful digital pan/tilt/zoom capabilities and multi-view streaming, which enables cropped areas of interest to be streamed simultaneously instead of the full view. 

AXIS P3367-V/-VE can be installed quickly and easily through a combination of modular product design and smart features such as remote zoom for adjusting the angle of view over the network, remote focus that eliminates the need for manual focusing and Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, which requires only one network cable to carry both power and data. 

“The AXIS P33 Series is very popular and widely used in all vertical market segments and, by bringing P-Iris control and Axis’ latest processing technology to the series, security end-users can experience exceptional 5-megapixel detail even in areas with poor lighting,” said Fredrik Nilsson, general manager, Axis Communications Inc. “The option to choose either megapixel or 1080p HDTV video in this fixed dome IP camera will make AXIS P3367 a very versatile product.” 

Two compact and discreetly designed variants will be available: the indoor vandal-resistant 
AXIS P3367-V and the outdoor-ready, vandal-resistant AXIS P3367-VE. The latter model, which offers an impact-resistant IK10-, IP66- and NEMA 4X-rated casing, requires no additional protection for installation outdoors. 

AXIS P3367-V/-VE Network Cameras are supported by the industry’s largest base of video management software through the Axis’ Application Development Partner Program, as well as by AXIS Camera Station. The cameras include support for AXIS Camera Application Platform, 
AXIS Video Hosting System and ONVIF for easy camera system integration and for application developers to provide the camera with intelligent capabilities. AXIS P3367-V/-VE IP cameras offer increased processing power, allowing for greatly enhanced performance in video analytics applications.

AXIS P3367-V/VE Network Cameras will be available in Q3 2011, and pricing will be communicated through Axis’ typical sales channels by the summer.
