Overview

ISP and Modem - The Point to Point Protocol (PPP) support allows you to use your AXIS 2100 remotely over a serial link, just as if it were located on your local network. Initially setting up the unit using a computer connected by the supplied Null Modem cable, you can quickly configure the unit for remote use using an external modem; whereby your video images can even be uploaded to your preferred Internet Service Provider (ISP) to allow global access to your live images from any browser on the Internet. Select any of the supported ISPs in the Web-based Wizards, or use your own ISP as storage for your live images.

Security - The AXIS 2100 includes a self-contained Web server, which means that digital images can be secured like any other Internet host. Data protection is normally implemented by your Network Administrator using the unit’s security settings in combination with an organization’s Internet firewall. The Administrator can decide whether individuals, groups, the whole company or the whole world may access your camera. The AXIS 2100 supports multi-user password protection.

Network Camera Servers Developer's Pages - The Camera Division at Axis maintains a specialist site for network camera developers. New ideas and tools for software developers are often added. Follow the camera links and check it out at: www.axis.com

AXIS Technology - Axis renowned chipset technology is built upon an open architechture that is streamlined to provide device connectivity independent of any file server. The AXIS 2100 is driven by a powerful AXIS ETRAX 32-bit RISC processor and includes the industry's first dedicated digital video remote monitoring compression chip - the AXIS ARTPEC-1.

Compression and Performance - With an adaptive frame rate dependent on the prevailing lighting conditions, the AXIS 2100 delivers Motion-JPEG images at up to 10 images per second, as well as single JPEG images that feature user-defined compression levels.
