Axis expands successful PTZ dome offering with advanced features for entry-level surveillance

AXIS P5514/-E and AXIS P5515/-E Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) Dome Network Cameras offer HDTV image quality, improved light sensitivity and increased video analytics performance.

Axis Communications, the global leader in network video, strengthens its successful family of AXIS P55 PTZ Dome Network Cameras with the launch of four new entry-level HDTV models. "Our PTZ portfolio continues to expand, addressing a variety of end user needs, including mission-critical, mid-range, live streaming and now entry-level applications," said Fredrik Nilsson, general manager, Axis Communications, Inc. "AXIS P55 Series has been one of the most popular camera families because it is cost-effective and dependable. The addition of two new indoor and two outdoor models provides users with even more options and increased performance."

AXIS P5514 is ideal for indoor video surveillance applications, such as small industries, shopping malls and hotel receptions, with HDTV 720p resolution, 12x optical zoom and IP51 protection against dust. The AXIS P5515 model offers the same zoom performance and dust protection with HDTV 1080p resolution for even greater image detail.

AXIS P5514-E is an IP66-protected outdoor camera that is resistant to water, wind and snow. Its HDTV 720p resolution and 12x zoom makes it perfect for monitoring small outdoor areas such as playgrounds, parking lots, car dealerships and more. With HDTV 1080p version, AXIS P5515-E offers a higher resolution as well as 12x zoom and IP66 protection, making it resilient in tough outdoor environments.

Compared to previous generations of the cameras, the new AXIS P55 network camera models provide increased analytics performance. Built-in intelligent functionalities include audio detection and Advanced Gatekeeper, allowing the cameras to detect an object in a specified area and zoom in on it. With support for AXIS Camera Application Platform, other video analytics applications can be easily downloaded to the cameras.
