AXIS 210/211

Network Cameras

Superior video quality for professional
indoor and outdoor applications

AXIS 210 and AXIS 211 Network Cameras from the market
leader in network video, are ideal for indoor and outdoor
surveillance and remote monitoring.

The network cameras provide the best image quality in their
class, using a progressive scan CCD sensor and powerful real­time image processing hardware to guarantee full frame rate,
even at VGA resolution. Connecting directly to IP networks,
the built-in Web server, open application interface, and
sophisticated networking functions based on open industry
standards greatly simplify systems integration.

AXIS 211, with built-in Power over Ethernet – which enables
power to be delivered to the camera via the network – reduces
cabling requirements and installation costs, and consolidates
power for higher reliability.

AXIS 210 and AXIS 211 provide the perfect solution for securing
offices, shops, schools and other facilities over the local area
network or across the Internet.

 Superior image quality using progressive

scan CCD and advanced video processing

 Up to 30 frames per second in VGA

640 x 480 resolution

 Simultaneous Motion JPEG and MPEG-4

streams optimize for quality and bandwidth

 Built-in motion detection with pre- and post-

alarm image buffering

 Power over Ethernet support (IEEE 802.3af)

simplifies installation (AXIS 211)

Interlaced, 20 ms difference
between odd and even lines

Progressive scan is used instead of the interlaced method found in analog CCTV
(PAL/NTSC) cameras. With progressive scan all pixels (lines) are captured at the
same time, enabling moving images to be presented without distortion.

Progressive Scan, all lines are
captured at the same time
