Axis remains the market leader in network video products since it introduced the world's first network camera in 1996. (See Frost & Sullivan research - opens in a new window).

Axis' award-winning network video products are designed with built-in computers so they do not require a direct connection to a PC or any additional software to stream live video and audio over networks. Simply connect the network video products to an IP network (such as a LAN, intranet or Internet) and view live images from any local or remote, networked computer with a standard Web browser.

Axis network video products can be used to remotely and cost-effectively monitor places, people, pets or manufacturing processes; secure sites with the help of alarm information and video motion detection; provide remote product demonstrations or consultations from anywhere in the world; or broadcast live images on Web sites for promotion purposes.

Why should I use Axis network video products?

The following benefits are unique to network video solutions:

• Reliability: Axis network video products are based on well-tested, in-house developed, networking technology. The technology has been embedded in more than 2 million Axis products sold.
• Ease of installation & use: Axis' network cameras, video servers and network DVR do not require a connection to a PC or any additional software to stream live video over networks. Everything needed is embedded in the products. Live viewing and administration can be done on any networked computer with a standard Web browser.
• Remote access: Users gain convenience and speed, saving both money and time, in being able to manage the network video products and access live images at any time from any networked computer in the world.
• Wide-ranging applications: Users can cost-effectively monitor places, people, pets and manufacturing processes, as well as provide product demonstrations or consultations from anywhere in the world. You can also broadcast live images on Web sites for promotion purposes.
• Numerous options available: e.g. audio-streaming, alarm input and alerts, motion detection, e-mail notification and remote pan/tilt/zoom capabilities. More features are also available from Axis' Application Development Partners (ADP).
• Digital quality images: Axis network video products provide sharp, digital quality images (as well as digital-quality audio with some products). Image quality is retained during transmission and storage. Hard disk storage means no image degradation and easier search capabilities.
• Future proof: Axis' use of open standard protocols and networks for communication means easy system integration with equipment from different manufacturers.

Viewing access to a network video product can be restricted to a limited number of authorized people, or alternatively, open to the entire Internet community via a Web site. If a building is equipped with a computer network, the necessary infrastructure is already in place to add network video products.
