Swift and smooth

AXIS Q86 PTZ Network Cameras let operators choose between really slow or super-fast pan (from 0.05 to 120 degrees per second) and tilt movement (from 0.05 to 65 degrees per second). So they get smooth and jerk-free panoramic viewing when they need it and can respond quickly to events. The cameras can be column-mounted, on poles or walls for a 360° panoramic view and a ground-to-sky view of 135°. They can withstand high winds when it’s in motion.

Fast and easy

AXIS Q86’ slim design and many available accessories let you install it anywhere you want. It has an SFP slot, so it supports cost-effective, long-distance fiber-optic connection. A 22 meter (72 feet) long, heavy-duty power cable is available as optional accessory. Designed for outdoor use, the cable has 3-wire, 12AWG and a jacket diameter of 10 mm (0.4 in).

Outdoor ready

AXIS Q86 Series is made with material that are certified for IP66 and NEMA 4 ratings.  Furthermore, the cameras operate in temperatures from -40 ºC to 60 ºC (-40 ºF to 140 ºF). An optional washer can spray cleaner fluid to maintain the window in a neat condition even after, i.e a storm.
