Extra Info
Flexible Wide-Area Monitoring
The P3715-PLVE features two independently adjustable camera heads, each equipped with a 2.5–6.0 mm varifocal lens. This allows installers to tailor coverage across two directions from a single mounting point, drastically cutting installation time and costs. It's particularly useful in settings where you’d typically need two separate cameras.
Smart Surveillance in Any Lighting
With Forensic Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) and Axis Lightfinder, the camera handles complex lighting conditions like shadows, bright entrances, or headlights without losing detail. These technologies ensure that critical evidence — like license plates or facial features — stays visible and useful, regardless of the time of day.
Infrared Night Vision with Smart Adjustment
Smart IR LEDs automatically adjust their intensity based on the scene, preventing overexposure in close-up objects and maintaining clarity up to 20 meters in total darkness. This makes it ideal for 24-hour perimeter protection or dimly lit entrances.
Durable Outdoor Protection
Certified to IP66 (weatherproof) and IK10 (vandal-resistant) standards, the P3715-PLVE can withstand harsh weather and impact, making it suitable for exposed public areas, transit stations, or high-crime zones.
Smarter Security with Edge Analytics
With AXIS Object Analytics pre-installed, users can deploy real-time detection for humans, vehicles, or motion events without extra servers or licenses. It’s easy to configure in the Axis interface and adds actionable intelligence to routine surveillance.
