Axis P5415-E: PTZ dome for citizen and perimeter video surveillance that integrates aesthetically into the facade

The Axis P5415-E PTZ Dome Network camera is the latest release of the new line of outdoor fixed video surveillance systems, aesthetically designed to integrate with the facades of buildings and its application in citizen and perimeter video surveillance in locations such as car parks or patios.

Axis Communications has presented the second camera of its P54 series, composed of PTZ systems adherable directly to the wall without the need to use a mounting arm, allowing for easy installation and aesthetic adaptation (can even be painted) with the façade of the building, maintenance-free, to facilitate citizen and perimeter video surveillance.

The new model P5415-E, a PTZ dome that integrates an 18x optical zoom, It has an automatic rotation and inclination system of 270º (horizontal/vertical) very resistant and without mechanical parts, since there are no mechanical parts, but the camera is connected to a drive shaft with two motors: one for panning (horizontal) and another for tilting (vertical).

To this adds a very sensitive image sensor to light, larger than other HDTV 1,080p PTZ cameras, for crisp, noise-free image quality in low-light conditions.

Just like the recently introduced Model Axis P5414-E with HDTV 720p, the P5415-E model has an integrated sunshade, designed to make it easy to remove if the user needs to paint the camera to match the color of the wall on which it is installed. In addition, the inclined shape of the parasol is, at the same time, protection against vandalism, although it has IP66 and Nema 4X protection.

As Roberto de los Santos explains, Axis Sales Engineer at Iberia, "due to its aesthetic design, easy installation and performance and price, P54 cameras are the ideal choice for wide-coverage wall-mounted surveillance, with innovative hardware designs that, in addition to interesting architects and designers, they also ensure a cost-effective and durable installation".

Axis P5415-E has a hidden junction box with two-way audio, four configurable inputs/outputs for external devices, a memory card slot, and the option to use 24 V DC or Power Ethernet Plus (IEEE 802.3af)

Thanks to its rotation capacity of up to 270º, it can also be installed in the corners of a building using the specific support for those types of locations. P5415-E camera supports Advanced Gatekeeper, which facilitates its movement vertically automatically, as well as zooming in if motion is detected in a predefined area.

This new model also has Main Profile H.264 support, which provides efficient video compression to maintain image quality, while minimizing bandwidth and storage space usage. To this are added the intelligent video functions (motion detection, Advanced Gatekeeper and Audio Detection), as well as supporting additional applications through Axis Camera Application Platform.
