Axis Communications 01974-004 Ip Ptz Camera 720p

Product Description

The AXIS COMMUNICATIONS 01974-004 is an outdoor-rated IP PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) camera designed for professional surveillance installations. Operating at 720p resolution, this unit is built to handle demanding outdoor environments and delivers smooth motorized pan, tilt, and zoom control over a network connection. It is intended for installation by licensed security integrators, network video technicians, and facility maintenance professionals who work with IP-based camera systems. The IP67 environmental rating confirms full dust-tight construction and protection against water immersion, making it suitable for exterior mounting in exposed locations.

This camera is suited for commercial and institutional outdoor surveillance applications where remote PTZ control over an IP network is required. The 30x optical zoom range supports wide-area monitoring with the ability to close in on distant subjects without loss of image quality. Typical install scenarios include building perimeters, parking structures, campuses, and industrial yards where a fixed camera cannot cover the required field of view.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified security integrator or low-voltage technician familiar with IP camera systems and structured cabling. Power down or disconnect PoE switch ports before making cable connections to the camera. Follow local low-voltage and NEC wiring codes when running cable runs and terminating connections. Verify network settings, IP address assignment, and VMS compatibility before final commissioning.
