The AXIS P1388-LE is a robust network camera in a box design, developed for outdoor use under extreme environmental conditions. With a resolution of 8 megapixels (4K), it delivers high-detail image quality suitable for surveillance tasks in critical areas. The camera is designed for operating temperatures from -40 °C to +60 °C and features front heating to protect the lens from ice and fog at low temperatures. This ensures continuous visibility even in winter conditions.

Applications

The camera is designed for use in industrial, infrastructure, and security-critical applications where high reliability and resistance to weather influences are required. It is suitable for monitoring production facilities, warehouses, traffic junctions, or border areas where continuous video surveillance under harsh conditions is necessary.

Features and Equipment in Detail

The AXIS P1388-LE features Lightfinder 2.0 technology, which ensures clear, colour-accurate imaging in low light. Forensic WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) enables simultaneous display of bright and dark areas in the image, which is particularly advantageous in situations with high contrast, such as daylight and shadows. OptimizedIR provides even infrared illumination, ensuring clear visibility in darkness. The camera supports scene profiles that can be automatically adapted to specific surveillance situations to optimize image quality.

Technology Explained Simply

The camera is equipped with a Deep Learning Processing Unit (DLPU), enabling intelligent analysis functions to be executed directly at the camera (Deep Learning on the Edge). This reduces latency and network load, as data does not necessarily need to be transmitted to a central server. The integrated cybersecurity function Axis Edge Vault protects the camera from unauthorized access and secures confidential data. The camera supports PoE (Power over Ethernet), allowing power and data to be transmitted over a single network cable. Additionally, redundant DC power supply is possible, which increases installation flexibility and availability.

Compatibility and Accessories

The camera is compatible with various accessories that support its use in different environments. These include, for example, the DIN power supply 12 V DC 25 W, the TQ1601-E Conduit Back Box for mounting, the T8508 Managed PoE+ Switch with 8 ports, the T98A16-VE Surveillance Cabinet for camera protection, the TU8001 Ethernet Surge Protector for surge protection, the T8129 PoE Extender, the T90D40 IR illuminator with a range up to 500 m, the T90D35 white light illuminator with a range up to 180 m, the T94R01B Corner Mount, the T91B47 Pole Mount, and the T8645 Compact Kit for PoE over Coax. The camera is also combinable with the P13 IR Illumination Kit 50 m and the P13 Weather Protection Extension A.

Installation and Mounting

The camera can be installed at various mounting points, including walls, poles, or corners, with mounting aids such as the T94R01B Corner Mount or the T91B47 Pole Mount facilitating installation. PoE technology enables simple installation, as power and data are transmitted over a single cable. The redundant DC power supply provides additional security, especially in critical applications.

The camera offers high availability and reliability in operation. The integrated front heating ensures continuous visibility, even at low temperatures. The deep learning functions enable intelligent video analysis directly at the camera, reducing response time and network load. The cybersecurity function Axis Edge Vault protects the camera from unauthorized access and secures sensitive data. The camera is designed for use in harsh environments and offers high resistance to weather influences.
