Overview of the AXIS D2123-VE network radar detector
- Detects and classifies moving objects with AI-powered analytics for accurate identification and reduced false alarms
- 270° wide field of coverage, capable of monitoring large outdoor areas effectively
- Operates 24/7 in all weather and lighting conditions, including darkness, rain and fog
- Enables radar-video fusion with selected ARTPEC-9 PTZ cameras, allowing automated tracking and enhanced visual verification
- Box-shaped surveillance zones for efficient, optimised coverage and easy system configuration
The AXIS D2123-VE network radar delivers reliable, AI-powered detection and classification of humans and vehicles across wide areas. Its 270° horizontal coverage and long-range detection enable 24/7 operation in all weather and lighting conditions, with low power consumption supporting efficient, continuous use. Designed for flexibility, it can operate as a standalone device or be paired with selected ARTPEC-9 PTZ cameras for advanced radar-video fusion, automated tracking, and enhanced visual verification. When integrated through radar pairing, the radar and camera share a single IP address and VMS licence, helping reduce system complexity. Installation is simple and secure using the AXIS T91G61 wall mount, with PoE support and compatibility with existing Axis PTZ mounting systems, making it well suited to large-scale outdoor deployments.
Video Analytics
Built on ARTPEC-9, this advanced radar uses AI-powered radar analytics to detect and classify people and vehicles at long range, enabling early detection well before objects are clearly visible to cameras. Box-shaped detection and recognition zones allow precise coverage, helping to focus analytics on critical areas while reducing unnecessary triggers. When paired with selected ARTPEC-9 PTZ cameras, the radar supports AXIS Radar Autotracking for PTZ and radar-video fusion, enabling automated PTZ tracking and reliable visual verification. Configurable virtual zones for line crossing, object-in-area, and occupancy detection further enhance situational awareness while minimising false alarms.
This camera also supports other Axis and third-party applications, enabling greater functionality for the camera to meet more specialist demands.

Example Use Cases
- Perimeter protection for open land - Monitor large, open perimeters such as business parks, campuses, or fenced land, using radar to identify activity well before it reaches buildings or restricted zones.
- Solar and renewable energy sites - Detect movement early across large solar farms or wind facilities, where long-range radar enables reliable coverage of expansive, unmanned areas in all weather conditions.
- Ports and maritime environments - Maintain awareness across docks, quaysides, and container yards where radar performs reliably in poor visibility and wide-area coverage supports early incident response.
- Airfields and transport yards - Secure airfields, rail yards, and freight terminals with long-range detection across open spaces, enabling PTZ cameras to track and verify movement automatically.
