Monitor an indoor or outdoor area with the Q1656-LE 4MP Network Box Camera from Axis Communications. This unit uses a 1/1.8" progressive scan RGB CMOS sensor to capture 2688 x 1512 resolution video at up to 60 fps. IR LEDs provide up to 164' of night vision. The camera's 3.9-10mm varifocal lens delivers a 113 to 47° horizontal field of view. Two-way audio with noise reduction is possible thanks to an audio input and output. A memory card slot accepts microSD/SDHC/SDXC cards (available separately). Integrated PoE technology simplifies connectivity by transferring data and power over one cable.
This box camera complies with ONVIF profiles G, M, S, and T, making it compatible with a wide range of surveillance devices. It is housed in an IP67-, NEMA 4X, and IK10-rated aluminum enclosure (IK08-rated glass front window) for safe outdoor use in areas at risk of vandalism. A built-in heater enables the camera to be operational at temperatures as low as -40° F, while a wiper ensures that the camera's front glass is free of water and debris.
