Accessing the Product

Access from the Internet

Once connected, the Axis product is accessible on your local network (LAN). To access the product from the Internet you must configure your network router to allow incoming data traffic to the product. To do this, enable the NAT-traversal feature, which will attempt to automatically configure the router to allow access to the product. This is enabled from Setup > System Options >

Network > TCP/IP Advanced.

For more information, see NAT traversal (port mapping) for IPv4, on page 47. See also AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service at www.axiscam.net

Set the Root Password

To access the Axis product, you must set the password for the default administrator user root. This is done in the Configure Root Password dialog, which appears when the product is accessed for the first time.

To prevent network eavesdropping, the root password can be set via an encrypted HTTPS connection, which requires an HTTPS certificate. HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt traffic between web browsers and servers. The HTTPS certificate ensures encrypted exchange of information. See HTTPS, on page 42.

The default administrator user name root is permanent and cannot be deleted. If the password for root is lost, the product must be reset to the factory default settings. See Reset to Factory Default Settings, on page 53.

To set the password via a standard HTTP connection, enter it directly in the dialog.

To set the password via an encrypted HTTPS connection, follow these steps:

1.Click Use HTTPS.

A temporary certificate (valid for one year) is created, enabling encryption of all traffic to and from the product, and the password can now be set securely.

2.Enter a password and then re-enter it to confirm the spelling.

3.Click OK. The password has now been configured.

P5414E specifications

The Axis Communications P5414E is a high-performance pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) network camera designed for versatile surveillance applications. Ideal for outdoor environments, this camera combines advanced imaging technology with sophisticated features, catering to the needs of security professionals looking for reliable performance.

One of the standout features of the P5414E is its 720p resolution capability, providing clear and sharp images for effective monitoring. The camera is equipped with a powerful 18x optical zoom, enabling users to zoom in on specific areas without losing image quality. This is particularly useful in scenarios where detailed surveillance is crucial, such as monitoring large open spaces or capturing high-definition images of distant subjects.

The P5414E employs Axis’ streaming technology, allowing for smooth and efficient video transmission over the network. It supports multiple H.264 and Motion JPEG streams, enabling users to customize the stream quality depending on their networking conditions and storage needs. This flexibility is essential for optimizing bandwidth usage while maintaining image fidelity.

For nighttime surveillance, the P5414E incorporates advanced infrared (IR) technology, allowing it to capture high-quality images even in low-light conditions. With a built-in IR illuminator, the camera can provide visibility in complete darkness, ensuring continuous monitoring around the clock.

The camera's rugged design is specifically built to withstand harsh weather conditions. It includes an IP66-rated housing, making it resistant to dust and water ingress, while also operating effectively in a temperature range of -40°C to 50°C (-40°F to 122°F). This durability makes the P5414E suitable for a variety of challenging environments.

In addition to its robust features, the P5414E includes Axis’ advanced analytic functionalities, such as digital auto tracking and motion detection. These features enhance the camera's capability to alert users of suspicious activities in real time, significantly improving the effectiveness of security operations.

Moreover, the camera is equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying installation and reducing the need for multiple cables. This integration of power and data transmission through a single cable not only streamlines setup but also ensures a more efficient and reliable operation.

The Axis Communications P5414E represents the pinnacle of surveillance technology, combining high-resolution video, robust features, and practical design to meet the demands of modern security environments. Its cutting-edge technologies provide users with the tools needed for comprehensive monitoring and effective response to security threats.
