Product Description

The AXIS COMMUNICATIONS 01813-001 is an M12-mount fixed-focal lens with a 6mm focal length and an F2.0 aperture. It is designed for use with compatible Axis network cameras and PTZ camera systems, providing a wide field of view suitable for general surveillance and monitoring applications. Licensed security integrators and camera technicians install this lens when swapping or upgrading optics on supported camera heads. The M12 thread mount allows for direct installation without adapters on compatible Axis camera bodies. Note that this part has been discontinued by the manufacturer; availability is limited to remaining inventory.

This lens is intended for professional camera installations where a 6mm focal length is required. The F2.0 aperture supports adequate light intake for standard indoor and outdoor surveillance scenarios. It is most commonly found in commercial and light industrial deployments where the supported camera models are already in service and an optical replacement or spare is needed.

Installation Notes
