DATASHEET
AXIS Q7411 Video Encoder is a high-performance single channel solution that enables exible  
migration of analog cameras into an IP-based video surveillance system. The video encoder is ideal 
for both existing and new analog surveillance installations in areas such as casinos, manufacturing 
and law enforcement.
AXIS Q7411 is a powerful, full-featured video encoder 
solution oering 60/50 (NTSC/PAL) frames per second. 
The support for 60/50 fps provides smooth video in high 
motion scenes. This also enables the user to more 
closely follow details and changes in the monitored 
area, which is of major importance in forensic work.
The video encoder oers the highly ecient H.264 
video compression format both in Base and Main prole, 
with signicant savings in bandwidth and storage. 
Motion JPEG is also supported for increased exibility. 
For signicant installation savings, AXIS Q7411 allows 
PTZ control over the coaxial cable*. In addition, the 
video encoder also provides standard support for PTZ 
cameras using the serial ports. Other features include 
two-way audio, congurable I/O ports and microSD/ 
microSDHC memory.
AXIS Q7411 provides outstanding performance and 
intelligent video capabilities, such as tampering alarm, 
motion detection and audio detection, in addition to 
AXIS Camera Application Platform applications.
> Edge storage
> Power over Ethernet
AXIS Q7411 can deliver multiple, individually 
congurable video streams simultaneously at full frame 
rate in all resolutions up to D1 (720x480 in NTSC, 
720x576 in PAL).
