Megapixel resolution
Thanks to its 1.3 megapixel resolution, AXIS 211M delivers crisp and clear images, perfect for the identification of objects and persons.
Progressive scan
Progressive scan technology provides full resolution images of moving objects, with no distortion.
Simultaneous Motion JPEG and MPEG-4
Simultaneous Motion JPEG and MPEG-4 video streams in full megapixel resolution allow for optimization both on image quality and bandwidth efficiency.
Power over Ethernet
Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) supplies power to the camera via the network, which eliminates the need for power cables and reduces installation costs.
Two-way audio support
The two-way audio support allows remote users to listen in on an area and communicate with visitors or intruders.
Exceptional Image Detail
AXIS 211M Network Camera is a high-performance megapixel camera, designed for professional video surveillance. It features a 1.3 megapixel sensor that delivers crisp and clear images, perfect for the identification of objects and persons. The highquality lens uses DC-iris control for improving the depth of field and protecting the sensor at intensely illuminated scenes. AXIS 211M is ideal for video surveillance in locations such as retail stores, schools, banks or governmental buildings. The megapixel resolution allows important areas like entrances or checkouts to be monitored in great detail.The increased resolution can also be used to provide a significantly larger overview. The inner rectangle below shows the area covered by an analog high-resolution camera. With the same number of pixels per area, the full 1280x1024 resolution provided by AXIS 211M - the outer rectangle below - covers a three times larger scene.
Superior image quality
Progresive Scan
With traditional interlaced scanning NTSC/PAL techniques,
every image consists of two frames that are captured after
each other and merged together. This results in degraded
quality when freezing the image. AXIS 211M instead uses
progressive scan, capturing the full image at the same moment,
which provides non-distorted, superior quality images with
drastically reduced motion blur.
Simultaneous Motion JPEG and MPEG-4
AXIS 211M offers simultaneous Motion JPEG and MPEG-4 video
streams in full 1.3 megapixel resolution. These streams can
be optimized for image quality and bandwidth efficiency, by configuring the frame rate, resolution, compression level and
format offering up to 12 frames per second in full 1280x1024
resolution and 30 frames per second in 800x600 resolution
(partial scan).
Power Over Ethernet
Equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, AXIS 211M is capable of using the same cable for both power and video, making installation quick and easy. The consolidation of power enables the use of a central Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), adding resilience to the video surveillance system. Two-way audio support The two-way audio support includes the options of using the built-in microphone or an external audio capturing device, and connecting external speakers. This enables remote users to listen in on an area and to communicate with visitors or intruders. Axis audio enabled video products are capable of sending an alarm at a configurable audio detection level. Audio can be disabled when inappropriate.
Advanced security
and network management
AXIS 211M offers the highest degree of security by using
multiple, password-protected user access levels, IP address
filtering, HTTPS encryption and IEEE 802.1X network access
control. With the appropriate access rights, video from
AXIS 211M can be accessed from any computer, anywhere, at
any time.
IPv6 is supported in addition to IPv4, as insurance against
the growing shortage of IP addresses, eliminating the need
for network address translation and simplifying configuration.
Network utilization is optimized with the support for Quality of
Service (QoS), which enables reservation of network capacity
and prioritization of mission-critical surveillance in a QoSaware
network.
Powerful event management
AXIS 211M allows for powerful event management with multiwindow
motion detection, audio detection and I/O (input/output) for connecting devices such as sensors and external
relays to activate lights or open/close doors. Pre/post-image
alarm buffering secures images just before and after an alarm.
AXIS 211M is supported by AXIS Camera Station video
management software, which offers remote video monitoring,
recording and playback.
OPEN PROGRAMMING INTERFACE FOR
CUSTOMIZED APPLICATIONS
AXIS 211M supports the industry standard Axis Application
Programming Interface, AXIS VAPIX API, which facilitates the
development of customized software solutions. The API ensures
compatibility with the markets widest range of third-party
video management software, available from Axis Application
Development Partners.
