Extra Info
Reliable in Harsh Environments
The Axis M3125-LVE is built for outdoor use, with an IP66 weatherproof rating and IK08 vandal resistance. Whether installed in a school parking lot or a residential entryway, it’s engineered to handle rain, snow, dust, and impact — making it ideal for exposed locations.
Consistent Video, Even in Low Light
Thanks to WDR and IR night vision, this camera maintains detail in both bright and dark areas. This means faces and license plates remain visible even when the sun sets behind your subject or you're monitoring a dark alleyway.
Efficient Storage and Bandwidth Usage
With Axis Zipstream and support for H.264/H.265 compression, the M3125-LVE lowers your data usage significantly — reducing costs without missing important details in recordings.
Flexible Placement and Coverage
The wide 115° horizontal view angle makes this model ideal for covering open areas like lobbies, waiting rooms, or shop aisles. Plus, the small size allows for discrete installation in locations where aesthetics or discretion matter.
