Extra Info
Precision Monitoring with Pan-Tilt-Zoom
The P5654-E is designed to secure wide, open areas with a single device. Its 360° endless pan and 21x optical zoom allow operators to zoom into license plates, faces, or suspicious movements—without distortion or pixel loss. It's perfect for parking structures, campuses, or industrial sites that demand flexibility and detail.
Clarity in Any Light
With Axis Lightfinder and WDR technology, this camera delivers crisp, detailed color footage—even in near-dark conditions or complex lighting environments. Whether you're recording at dusk, under streetlights, or against sunlight, image integrity remains intact.
Smarter Surveillance with Autotracking 2
The integrated Autotracking 2 software automatically detects and tracks moving objects, freeing up security staff and ensuring no critical movement goes unnoticed. This is particularly useful in remote monitoring centers or unmanned surveillance zones.
Rugged, Outdoor-Ready Build
The P5654-E can handle tough environments with ease. It carries both IP66/67 and NEMA 4X ratings, meaning it's dust-tight, waterproof, and resistant to corrosion and high-impact shocks. It also features defog and electronic image stabilization for consistent performance in changing weather.
Efficient Storage & Privacy Control
With support for H.264 and H.265 compression and Axis’ Zipstream technology, it reduces bandwidth usage by up to 50% while preserving key forensic details. The camera also includes built-in privacy masking zones to help comply with legal requirements or customer privacy needs.
