optical zoom, the latest in wide dynamic range technology, image stabilisation,

Axis
Communications, the global leader in network video, today launched AXIS P56
Series, which consists of outdoor-ready AXIS P5635-E and AXIS P5624-E PTZ Dome
Network Cameras for wide area video surveillance in indoor and outdoor
environments.
“The introduction
of AXIS P56 Series changes the price point and performance level of mid-range
PTZ dome cameras in the security market,” says Erik Frännlid, Axis’ director of
product management. “AXIS P56 Series delivers all the major requirements for a
PTZ camera at price levels that will be highly attractive for the majority of
PTZ camera installations.”
AXIS P5635-E is
ideal for demanding indoor and outdoor video surveillance applications such as
city surveillance. It is an HDTV 1080p camera with 30x optical zoom, enabling

Dynamic Range – Forensic Capture (120 dB) enables details in both very
bright and dark areas of a scene to be visible. The camera also offers Axis’
Electronic Image Stabilisation for better video and bandwidth savings in
vibrating conditions.
AXIS P5635-E’s
built-in intelligent functionalities include audio detection and Advanced
Gatekeeper, which allows the camera to detect an object in a specified area and
zoom in on it. Support for AXIS Camera Application Platform enables other
intelligent video functionalities to be downloaded to the camera. The camera
also supports shock detection, which enables it to send an alarm when it has
been hit. Other features in AXIS P5635-E include two-way audio, four
configurable inputs/outputs for connection to external devices, Power over
Ethernet Plus (PoE+), 24 V AC/DC and an SD card slot for local storage of
recordings.
AXIS P5624-E is
ideal for retail surveillance in both indoor and outdoor environments. It is an
HDTV 720p camera with 18x optical zoom. Like AXIS P5635-E, it features a
continuous 360° pan, day/night functionality for superb low light performance,
120 dB Wide Dynamic Range – Forensic Capture, Advanced Gatekeeper, shock
detection, PoE+, and an SD card slot.
AXIS P56 Series cameras are compatible with AXIS T91B
Mounts for ease of installation. The cameras are supported by the industry’s
largest base of video management software through the Axis Application Development
Partner Program, AXIS Camera Station
and the complimentary AXIS
Camera Companion. The cameras also include support for AXIS Video Hosting
System and ONVIF for easy camera
system integration.
AXIS P56 Series is available through Axis distribution channels on April 14 at the suggested retail price of ?1679 for AXIS P5635-E and ?1343 for AXIS P5624-E.
