AXIS P33 Network Cameras constitute a series of indoor and outdoor-ready xed domes designed
for ecient installation. Oering high performance video, including HDTV image quality and multiple
H.264 streams, these cameras are ideal for unobtrusive video surveillance in exposed areas such as
airports, subways, retail stores, schools and university campuses.
AXIS P33 Series delivers superb video quality in 30
frames per second in full resolution. AXIS P3343
Network Cameras provide SVGA resolution, whereas
the AXIS P3344 models oer 1MP, or HDTV 720p in
compliance with the SMPTE standard in resolution,
color representation and frame rate.
AXIS P33 Network Cameras support automatic day and
night functionality with removable infrared-cut lter
for increased light sensitivity.
AXIS P33 Series provides multiple, individually congurable video streams in H.264 compression, which
greatly optimizes bandwidth and storage without
compromising image quality. Motion JPEG is also
supported for increased exibility.
The remote focus feature allows for convenient installation eliminating the need for hands-on focusing at the
camera, and the remote zoom and pixel counter
features ensure that the camera’s viewing angle is
optimized for the scene and pixel resolution.
AXIS P33 Network Cameras range from standard
indoor models to vandal-resistant outdoor models,
perfectly adapted for harsh environments. All models in
AXIS P33 Series have low, environment friendly power
consumption, supplied by standard Power over Ethernet
(IEEE 802.3af). This is the case even for the weatherproof models that operate in extreme temperatures
from -40° to 55° C (-40° to 131 °F).

ensures that the viewing angle is optimized for the
area to be monitored.
Unique pixel counter feature
The unique pixel counter oered in AXIS P33 Series
allows the installer to easily verify that the camera
installation fullls any regulatory or specic customer
requirements, for example calculating the pixel resolution of the face of a person passing a doorway monitored by the camera.
