This makes integration into existing security infrastructures seamless and hassle-free. Furthermore, the camera has built-in analytics capabilities, such as motion detection and tampering alarm, which bolster its functionality and provide additional layers of security.

Durability is another hallmark of the Axis P3304. The camera is designed to operate in various environmental conditions, with an IP51 rating for ingress protection against dust and moisture. This makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.
