Access live video at anytime, from anywhere
You can access real-time video at any time from any computer anywhere. Axis network video products provide an easy way to capture and distribute high quality video over any kind of IP network or the Internet. The video can be stored at remote locations for convenience and security, and the information can be transported over the LAN or Internet. This means that even companies with several offices across the world can make effective use of a network video solution for security surveillance and remote monitoring purposes.

Put the cameras wherever you want, integrate applications, and leverage your investments
There are almost no limitations as to where you can place Axis network video products. They are not tied to physical inputs or frame grabbers and you can connect the product to a LAN, xDSL, modem, wireless adapter or cell phone. Basically wherever you can receive a phone call on your cell phone, you can receive images from an Axis network video solution.  In addition, Axis network video has the capacity to provide a high level of integration with other equipment and functions, making it a continually developing system:

• Migrating your analog CCTV system into a network video solution
  With an Axis network video solution, you can integrate your existing analog system with products that bring it up to speed with the latest IP technology. The solution enables you to take advantage of numerous functionalities such as remote pan/tilt/zoom, Power over Ethernet, wireless, megapixel, audio, motion detection and many more, while meeting your requirements for image quality, recording capabilities and reliability.



• Integrating applications
  A fully integrated Axis network video system can be used for a multitude of applications simultaneously: for instance, access control, building management, point-of-sales systems, ATMs, as well as fire, intruder and visitor management, and so forth. 

A system that grows with your needs
An Axis network video system can be expanded by adding more network cameras. This is just as easily done regardless of whether the new cameras are to be placed at the same site, or at a new location communicating over the Internet. You can choose exactly what you need today, and scale the system at any time to meet your growing needs. New technologies, additional cameras, and extra storage capacity are all easily added as required, thanks to strict adherence to industry standards.

Save money and lower total cost of ownership thanks to strict adherence to industry standards
Based on open standards, Axis’ professional network video products run on Ethernet networking. Using standard PC server hardware for video recording and storage rather than proprietary equipment such as DVRs radically reduces management and equipment costs, particularly for larger systems where storage and servers are a significant portion of the total solution cost. Additional cost savings come from the infrastructure used. IP-based networks such as the Internet, LANs and various connection methods such as wireless can be leveraged for other applications across the organization.

Axis network video products also support a number of advanced technologies such as Power over Ethernet, which provides power to the network camera using the same cable as that used for network connection.

Put the system's intelligence wherever you need it
In today’s network video systems, intelligence has been brought into the camera itself. Advanced network cameras can have built-in motion detection and alarm management so the camera decides when to send video, at what frame rate and resolution, and when to alert a specific operator for monitoring and/or response. More intelligent algorithms - number plate recognition, people counting, face recognition - are also being integrated into network cameras. You obtain data in more manageable forms and with higher levels of accuracy. Intelligence at the camera level implies a far more effective means of surveillance than is possible with a DVR or other centralized system.
