Axis Communications has introduced new and improved camera products in response to demand from some customers for discreet multi-view surveillance and detailed surveillance of large areas.
The AXIS FA series is designed with modular cameras for highly discreet video surveillance that is also cost-effective, because one camera system provides coverage of several areas.
The company has also expanded its P13 series with three new additions that offer 4K resolution in full frame rate. The cameras can cover large areas and reproduce images in high quality detail. Axis will demonstrate the new cameras at ISC West 2017 in Las Vegas in April.
The AXIS FA series and the additions to the P13 series will be available through distributors from May.

AXIS FA series features
AXIS FA series enables discreet, multi-view indoor surveillance of four closely situated areas using a single camera system. The main unit can stream at full frame rate HDTV 1080p videos from four connected sensor units at the same time, using one IP address.
The AXIS FA series is modular, made up of the following separately sold units:
- AXIS FA54 main unit
- AXIS FA1105 sensor unit with a standard lens
- AXIS FA1125 sensor unit with a pinhole lens
- AXIS FA4115 dome sensor unit with a varifocal lens.
AXIS FA captures video with forensic wide dynamic range (WDR) even in low light and in motion. The AXIS FA54 also has the capacity to support advanced video analytics, and has an HDMI output for connection to a surveillance or public view monitor, ideal for retail applications.
The sensor units can be hidden in surfaces, structures or devices. Installed at eye level the can provide video monitoring at building entrances without drawing attention. The sensor units come with an 8-m (26 ft.) cable for connection to an AXIS FA54.
Axis Communications says
“By separating the sensor unit from the camera body, the sensor units can fit into tight spaces and blend in with the environment for unobtrusive surveillance. The pinhole sensor unit is especially useful at entrances for capturing people’s faces at eye level,” says Erik Mårtensson, global product manager for modular cameras at Axis Communications.
AXIS P13 series features
The indoor AXIS P1367 and outdoor AXIS P1367-E and AXIS P1368-E network cameras are additions to the highly-respected AXIS P13 fixed-box series. With improved light sensitivity, better image quality and higher frame rate, these cameras can provide up to 4K resolution images in large open areas with challenging light conditions, such as arrival halls at train stations, crowded city areas or car parks.
The system comprises:
- AXIS P1367/-E support CS and i-CS lenses
- 4K AXIS P1368-E is delivered with i-CS lens as standard
- AXIS P1367-E and AXIS P1368-E have specifically been designed for outdoor use, deploying a mechanical platform that allows for easier access to connectors and cabling and free up space for optional lenses
- Built-in camera rails increase the flexibility of the camera, allowing larger zoom lenses to be installed, delivering greater detail as required
Axis Communications says
“The lightweight AXIS P1367-E and AXIS P1368-E are examples of real outdoor cameras. It’s not just a camera put inside a housing, but for the first time we have developed an outdoor-ready CS-mount camera from scratch. This has enabled a highly flexible camera system that can use zoom lenses or even Axis Corridor Format when customers want to view a vertical image and not waste precious screen real estate and bandwidth,” explains Andres Vigren, global product manager for fixed box cameras at Axis Communications.
