With its advanced features and cutting-edge technology, the P1214 is ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, making it a versatile choice for security monitoring.

One of the standout features of the P1214 is its high-resolution video capability, providing crisp 720p HD video quality that allows for detailed image capture in a variety of lighting conditions.

The camera also boasts a wide dynamic range (WDR) technology which enhances image quality in challenging lighting situations, allowing for clear details in both bright and dark areas of the scene.

The P1214 is equipped with a built-in infrared (IR) illuminator, which enables night vision capabilities.

The Axis P1214 utilizes Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, simplifying installation by allowing the camera to receive power and transmit data through a single Ethernet cable. This reduces cable clutter and the need for separate power sources, making installation quicker and more efficient.

Additionally, the camera supports Axis’ unique Zipstream technology, which optimizes bandwidth and storage efficiency without compromising image quality. This intelligent compression technique significantly reduces the amount of data transferred and stored while ensuring high-quality video remains accessible when needed.
