Axis Communications 02977-004 4K Ptz Ip Camera Ir Ai

Product Description

The AXIS COMMUNICATIONS 02977-004 is a 4K pan-tilt-zoom IP security camera designed for demanding outdoor surveillance applications. Built around the Q6358-LE platform, it delivers high-resolution 4K imaging with 31x optical zoom and integrated infrared illumination for low-light and nighttime coverage. AI-powered auto-tracking allows the camera to follow moving subjects automatically, reducing the need for manual operator control. The IP66-rated enclosure protects internal components against dust ingress and high-pressure water jets, making it suitable for exposed exterior mounting. Licensed security integrators and IP video technicians are the primary installers.

This camera is suited for large-scale perimeter protection, parking structures, transit hubs, and commercial or institutional campuses where wide-area coverage and subject tracking are required. The 31x optical zoom supports detailed identification at extended distances without the image degradation associated with digital zoom. Infrared illumination enables effective monitoring in complete darkness. AI auto-tracking reduces operator workload in environments where continuous manual pan-tilt control is not practical.

Key Features

• 4K resolution for high-detail imaging across wide surveillance zones
• 31x optical zoom for long-range subject identification
• Integrated IR illumination for nighttime and low-light operation
• AI-based auto-tracking reduces reliance on manual PTZ control
• IP66-rated enclosure for outdoor and all-weather deployment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM PTZ network camera for use with ONVIF-compatible video management systems and network video recorders supporting 4K IP camera streams.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed security or low-voltage technician familiar with IP camera commissioning and network configuration. Power down the network switch port or PoE injector before making cable connections. The camera requires a network cable run rated for outdoor use if exposed, and all conduit penetrations should be sealed to maintain enclosure integrity. Refer to local electrical and building codes for mounting hardware and conduit requirements.
