The AXIS Surveillance Card 128 GB is a memory card specifically developed for video surveillance systems by the manufacturer Axis. It serves as a decentralized storage solution for network cameras and enables local video recording directly at the camera, without requiring an additional server, DVR, or NVR on-site. This Edge-Storage solution is particularly suitable for applications with limited or no network bandwidth, as live video can be transmitted in lower resolution while recording occurs locally in HDTV quality. The card is optimized for use with Axis cameras and supports the Axis Zipstream technology, which enables efficient storage of high-resolution video, even over extended recording periods.

Applications
The AXIS Surveillance Card 128 GB is designed for decentralized video surveillance systems where a central recording unit is unavailable or not economically viable. It is especially suitable for locations with limited network infrastructure, such as rural areas, mobile applications, or temporary installations. Local storage ensures that video recordings are retained even in the event of a connection loss, which is important for fail-safe surveillance. The card thus provides a redundant recording solution and supports continuous data protection.

Features and Equipment in Detail
The card is a microSDXC card with a capacity of 128 GB and was specifically developed for the requirements of video surveillance. It enables a flexible and scalable storage solution that can be adapted to the specific needs of the surveillance system. The integrated health monitoring allows the status of the card to be monitored via the connected Axis camera, providing early warnings of potential errors or wear. This supports maintenance and system availability. The delivery includes an SD card adapter, enabling the use of the microSDXC card in standard SD slots.

Technology Explained Simply
The AXIS Surveillance Card 128 GB uses the Zipstream technology from Axis, which enables intelligent video processing. Only relevant parts of the video are recorded, allowing for more efficient use of storage capacity. This is particularly advantageous when high resolutions or long recording times are required. The card is designed for use in surveillance cameras that create continuous or interval-based video recordings and offers high write and read performance, which is necessary for constant data transfer. Storage occurs locally at the camera, reducing bandwidth usage and increasing independence from the network.

Compatibility and Accessories
The card is specifically developed and optimized for use with Axis network cameras. Compatibility with specific models is typically ensured if the cameras support Edge-Storage and health monitoring functions. The accessories included in the delivery consist of the SD card adapter, which enables the physical use of the microSDXC card in standard SD slots.

Installation and Mounting
The installation of the AXIS Surveillance Card 128 GB is performed by inserting it into the SD card slot of the compatible Axis camera. The card is inserted directly into the slot, ensuring correct orientation (with the contact point facing downward). The camera automatically recognizes the card, and recording begins once the camera is configured. Configuration is done via the camera’s software or web interface, where settings for recording, storage space management, and health monitoring can be adjusted.

Operational Advantages
The use of the AXIS Surveillance Card 128 GB offers several operational advantages: decentralized storage reduces dependence on central recording systems and reduces network load. Local recording ensures data security even during network outages. The integrated health monitoring enables proactive maintenance and minimizes downtime. The card comes with a 5-year warranty from Axis, emphasizing its reliability and longevity. The combination of high capacity, efficient storage technology, and integrated monitoring makes the card a robust solution for professional video surveillance systems.
