Video and Audio

Simplex - Network Camera microphone only - Audio captured by the microphone connected to the Axis product is transmitted from the product to one or more clients.

For more information about these settings, please see the online help .

Audio Input

An external microphone or a line source can be connected to the product’s Audio-in connector. Configure the audio input settings under Video & Audio > Audio Settings.

Source - Select Microphone for an external microphone or Line for a Line in device, e.g. an audio mixer for multiple microphones or a microphone with a built-in amplifier.

Microphone power - The Enable microphone power option provides DC power for an external microphone. Microphone power should only be used with microphones that have no battery and when using the internal microphone. This setting should not be enabled when using a dynamic or battery powered microphone. Microphone power will not harm the microphone; if you are uncertain, try switching it off and on. To use a professional microphone requiring 48V phantom power, you need an external power supply and a balanced-unbalanced converter (audio transformer) in between.

Input gain - Control the volume (dB Full Scale) of the audio input. If the sound is too low, choose a higher dB, to amplify the sound. If the sound is too high, choose a lower dB. The Level bar gives a visual representation of the audio signal level in dB relative to the full-scale input level.

•Green — the signal is at a good level.

•Yellow — the signal is becoming distorted.

•Red — the signal is distorted.

Encoding - Select digital audio encoding format.

•AAC requires a license for both encoding and decoding. AAC is the least complicated and most widely used codec. If achieving the best possible audio quality is a priority, AAC is the recommended codec to use. An AAC license is included in the Axis product.

•G711

•G726

Sample rate - The number of times per second the sound is sampled. A higher sample rate will provide better audio quality, but also requires a greater bandwidth.

Bit rate - Set the required bit rate depending on the selected encoding. A higher bit rate will give better audio quality. A lower bit rate may have latency or delay, but will require less bandwidth.

For more information about these settings, please see the online help .

Audio Output

An external speaker can be connected to the product’s Audio-out connector. The output can be used with high impedance headphones or connected to another amplifier with speakers.

Configure the audio output settings under Video & Audio > Audio Settings.

Output gain - Control the volume (dB Full Scale) of the line audio output. If the sound is too low, choose a higher dB. If the sound is too high, choose a lower dB.

Axis Communications, a leading manufacturer of IP surveillance solutions, has developed the P3344 series of network cameras, designed to meet the growing demand for advanced security applications across various environments. The P3344 series is known for its high-performance capabilities, exceptional video quality, and a range of features that cater to both indoor and outdoor surveillance needs.

One of the standout features of the Axis P3344 cameras is their impressive video resolution capabilities, offering high-definition image quality that ensures clear and detailed footage. With resolutions reaching up to 1.3 megapixels, these cameras provide crystal-clear images even in challenging lighting conditions, thanks to the incorporation of advanced day/night functionality. The automatic switching between color mode during the day and monochrome mode at night enhances visibility, making them ideal for 24/7 monitoring in various settings.

The P3344 series utilizes progressive scan technology, which is essential for capturing fast-moving subjects without motion blur, ensuring smooth and clear video playback. This feature is particularly crucial in environments like retail spaces or public areas where swift actions need to be accurately recorded. Furthermore, Axis's proprietary Lightfinder technology allows these cameras to deliver color images in low-light situations, further expanding their range of operational capabilities.

Another key characteristic of the P3344 series is its flexibility in installation. The cameras come with a user-friendly design, allowing for easy mounting and integration into existing security systems. They support Power over Ethernet (PoE), which simplifies installation by requiring only one cable for power and data transmission, reducing the complexity of cabling during setup.

Moreover, Axis Communications emphasizes advanced security features in the P3344 series, including Motion Detection, Audio Detection, and built-in tampering alarms. These features not only enhance the camera's effectiveness in monitoring suspicious activities but also provide operational alerts to security personnel. The cameras are equipped with Axis's Zipstream technology, a smart compression technology that optimizes bandwidth and storage usage, allowing for high-quality video streaming while minimizing data consumption.

In summary, the Axis P3344 series exemplifies the perfect blend of quality, performance, and versatility in surveillance technology.
