AXIS P13 Series oers xed network cameras suitable for a range of video surveillance applications, including
government and industrial buildings, retail environments, airports, railway stations and schools.
High-performance indoor/outdoor cameras
Easy installation with focus assistant,
remote focus and pixel counter
Setting the focus on all AXIS P13 cameras is made easy with the focus
assistant, which indicates with a ashing green LED when an image
is in focus after manually adjusting the lens. Additionally, the SVGA
and megapixel/HDTV models oer remote back focus, which allows the
focus to be ne-tuned from a computer. The pixel counter further helps
the installer verify that the pixel resolution of an object fullls regula-
tory or customer requirements, for example, for facial identication.
Outdoor-ready models
AXIS P13-E Network Cameras save
installation time and costs since
they are ready out of the box for
mounting outdoors. The IP66-rated
cameras have protection against
dust, rain, snow and sunlight, and
can operate in temperatures as low
as -40 ºC (-40 ºF). The cameras are
powered by Power over Ethernet,
which makes installation easy since
there is no need for a separate power cable. An integrated dehumidifying
membrane eliminates any humidity caught in the camera enclosure during
installation. The cameras enable easy mounting of an infrared illuminator
under the enclosure. They come with a wall mount bracket, sunshield and
an Ethernet cable with a pre-mounted gasket.
Digital PTZ and multi-view streaming
The SVGA and megapixel camera models support digital pan/tilt/zoom,
which allows a selected area of interest to be cropped from the full
view for viewing or recording, thereby minimizing the bit rate and
storage needs. The 3-megapixel AXIS P1346/-E cameras also support
multi-view streaming, which allows several cropped view areas to be
streamed simultaneously, simulating up to eight virtual cameras.

P-Iris control
AXIS P1346/-E cameras feature a new and advanced precise iris
control, P-Iris, that sets new image quality standards for xed cam-
eras. It comprises a special P-Iris lens together with specialized soft-
ware in the camera to enable the camera to set the best iris posi-
tion for optimal image contrast, clarity, resolution, and depth of eld.
Having good depth of eld—where objects at dierent distances from
the camera are in focus simultaneously—allows more of a scene to be
clearly visible.
P-Iris is especially benecial for megapixel/HDTV cameras as it can help
the cameras maintain the delivery of crisp, high-resolution images, even
in dicult lighting situations. P-Iris uses the same type of connector
and cable as the traditional DC-iris control, which is also supported by
AXIS P1346/-E for backward compatibility.
