Axis 212 IP Network PTZ Security Camera is a unique, yet high perfromance Pan-tilt-zoom IP security camera which utilizes a 3.1 megapixel Images sensor instead of moving parts to create a whole new definition of Pan Tilt Zoom (PTZ). THe Axis 212 IP PTZ security camera provides a full 140° field of vision and allows the Axis 212 Network PTZ camera to monitor an entire area while conventional PTZ security cameras can only view part of a given area at one time. The Axis 212 performs flawlessly with instant pan tilt zoom functions and always delivers crisp, clear images. AXIS 212 PTZ is perfect for indoor IP video surveillance of premises up to 150 m2/500ft2, such as retail shops, reception areas, banks, server rooms and other places where you need to see the whole area and have the possibility to zoom in for detailed inspection and monitoring.
  The Axis 212 IP Network PTZ security Camera combines a high resolutiom image sensor and advanced windowing techniques to allow the Axis 212 IP camera to produce Full over-view of the Surveillance area in perfect clarity and then zoom in three steps all in VGA high resolution. The Axis 212 is easy to operate with simple clicks on any given part of the screen allowing the user to instantly zoom in on suspicious behavior and just as easly follow the visitor or return to full over-view all with simple clicks of the mouse. The Axis 212 IP PTZ security camera  and its Oversampling technology that uses the advantages of a high-resolution sensor (2048x1536 pixels) in its full format. This means that, whether in full overview mode or when zooming in, full 1:1 VGA resolution of 640x480 pixels is maintained - resulting in a brighter image, more detail and higher contrast.
Another obvious advantage of VGA resolution combined with enhanced image quality is lower requirements on bandwidth and storage capacity. AXIS 212 PTZ Security Camera is able to efficiently "window" a specific portion of the 3 megapixel sensor grid. In doing so, the camera filters out unnecessary information that offloads your network and storage capacity, and lets you capture a well-defined "image concentrate". The No Moving Parts due to the oversampling and Windowing techniques gives the Axis 212 PTZ IP security camera a far higher degree of durability, reliablility and in short a longer life span. The no moving parts further make for more discreet and silent PTZ camera while also giving no hint to the Cameras actual perception.
  AXIS 212 Network IP PTZ Security Camera 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 212 PTZ can be accessed from any computer, anywhere, at any time.
Support for IPv4 and IPv6 ensures that the camera can operate on existing and future networks. IPv6, the successor to IPv4, increases the number of available 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 video surveillance in a QoS-aware network.
 You can access live and recorded video at any time from any computer anywhere. AXIS 212 PTZ IP Security Camera supports AXIS Camera Station video management software, offering all the advanced capabilities you need: remote video monitoring, recording and playback. It also lets you perform scheduled event management, using its embedded features: video motion detection, audio detection, inputs/output for connecting additional devices such as external relays and sensors to activate light or open/close doors. The pre- and post-image alarm buffer further contributes to powerful event management, by securing images just before and after an alarm.
AXIS 212 IP Network PTZ Security Cameras include the Axis Application Programming Interface, AXIS VAPIXTM API, facilitating the development of customized applications. It also ensures you benefit from the widest available range of third party applications, available via Axis Application Development Partners.
  The Axis 212 IP PTZ security camera also incorporates a number of other features that it shares with many other Axis network cameras with the following; built-in PoE (Power over Ethernet), simultaneous motion JPEG and MPEG-4, two-way audio, COMPREHENSIVE SET OF NETWORK SECURITY FEATURES, tamper-resistant DESIGN, powerful API, and more. The Axis 212 IP PTZ Camera further includes a specialized mounting bracket allowing the cameras position to be adjusted to the perfect position weather mounted on the wall or ceiling. THe Security benefits of the Axis 212 IP PTZ Network security camera are countless and overall the Axis 212 PTZ is highly recommended by A1 Security Cameras!
