Axis Communications 5505-691 Wide Lens C-mount 120 Degree

Product Description

The AXIS COMMUNICATIONS 5505-691 is a wide-angle C-mount lens with a 120-degree field of view, designed for use with compatible security and surveillance cameras. This lens fits cameras equipped with a standard C-mount interface and is suited for installations where broad coverage of an area is required from a single camera position. Security integrators and surveillance system technicians are the primary installers of this component. The 120-degree angle of view makes it well suited for wide-area monitoring in confined or expansive spaces where standard lenses would leave coverage gaps.

This lens is typically used in commercial and residential surveillance installations. It is appropriate for indoor or outdoor camera housings that accept C-mount optics. Common applications include retail floor monitoring, lobby coverage, parking structures, and perimeter installations where wide field-of-view capture is the primary requirement. Each unit is sold individually.

Key Features

• 120-degree field of view for wide-area surveillance coverage
• Standard C-mount interface for broad camera compatibility
• Sold as a single unit (EA)

Compatibility

Designed as a C-mount replacement or upgrade lens for surveillance cameras that accept standard C-mount optics. Verify camera sensor size and C-mount thread compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified security or low-voltage technician. Power down the camera system before removing or installing any lens to protect the image sensor. Use appropriate lens mounting tools and avoid touching optical surfaces during installation. Follow local low-voltage wiring codes and manufacturer guidance for camera housing reassembly after lens replacement.
