Extra Info
See Clearly – Even When Others Can't
The Q8752-E Mk II is equipped with two fully integrated camera sensors: one thermal and one optical. Thermal imaging helps spot intruders, fires, or vehicles regardless of fog, smoke, darkness, or camouflage. The visual sensor provides high-quality identification and situational detail.
Built for Harsh Environments
Designed for perimeter and area monitoring in rugged conditions, this camera is housed in a corrosion-resistant casing and can withstand extreme temperatures, wind, and moisture. The IP66/67 and NEMA 4X ratings, combined with MIL-STD-810G certification, ensure reliable operation from deserts to coastal zones.
Unmatched Detection Range
Choose from thermal lenses with focal lengths of 35mm, 60mm, or 100mm, depending on your application. Paired with a 32x optical zoom lens on the visual sensor, this setup enables real-time tracking and verification of moving targets over long distances—perfect for airports, substations, and border security.
Stable and Secure Imagery
High-mounted or exposed installations often suffer from wind vibration. The Q8752-E Mk II uses electronic image stabilization (EIS) to reduce blur and jitter, providing stable, usable footage even in tough conditions.
Forensics and Real-Time Response
Axis Lightfinder 2.0 captures true-to-life color images in very low light, giving investigators and security teams better footage for real-time decisions and post-event analysis. You can also define thermal palettes for clearer heat contrast, enabling faster identification of people or vehicles.

Q&A
Q: Can this camera operate at night without lighting?
A: Yes. The thermal imaging sensor detects heat signatures without the need for visible light, making it ideal for complete darkness.
Q: Is this camera suitable for high-security or critical infrastructure?
A: Absolutely. It’s designed for demanding applications like airports, power plants, and military perimeters, with rugged certifications and advanced analytics compatibility.
Q: What does “bispectral” mean in this camera?
A: It means the camera has both a thermal sensor and a visual (optical) sensor, letting you view both image types separately or side by side.
Q: Can I use this camera in coastal or extreme weather locations?
A: Yes. With IP66/67, NEMA 4X, and military-grade (MIL-STD-810G) protection, it performs in rain, dust, high winds, and salty air.
Q: How far can the camera see?
A: Detection range depends on the lens used. The 100mm thermal lens provides very long-range detection, while the 32x zoom on the optical lens ensures close-up detail of distant subjects.
Q: Does this support video analytics for intrusion detection?
A: Yes, it supports Axis Perimeter Defender and third-party analytics for intelligent motion detection and real-time alerts.
