It comes with an IP66 rating, ensuring that it is dust-tight and can withstand heavy rain, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The P3354 is also equipped with a tamper-resistant casing to deter vandalism and unauthorized access.

Axis’ application platform enables users to integrate the P3354 with various video management systems and smart analytics features. The camera supports features such as motion detection, audio detection, and tampering alarm, ensuring proactive security monitoring.

Installation and configuration are user-friendly, thanks to the camera's Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability, which simplifies wiring requirements. The P3354 can be easily mounted on walls or ceilings, providing flexible placement options to meet surveillance needs.

In summary, the Axis Communications P3354 is a versatile network camera that combines high-resolution imaging, advanced technologies like WDR and Lightfinder, along with a durable design suited for various environmental conditions.
