Videoszerver Axis 02036-003

AXIS M7116 (model 02036-003) is a 16-channel video encoder designed to integrate analog camera systems into IP-based surveillance. The unit supports standard-resolution analog cameras with up to 720 x 576 pixels at 30 fps, PTZ control over RS-485 and offers on-device edge storage via MicroSD/MicroSDHC/MicroSDXC card slots. The metal rack-mount housing and AxIS networking features provide a durable solution for secure video streaming using H.264, H.265, M-JPEG and MPEG4 compression.

Advantages

This video server reduces bandwidth and storage needs through Zipstream-compatible H.264/H.265 encoding while retaining image quality. It supports intelligent analytics including motion detection and active tampering alarm, and includes security features such as signed firmware and secure boot. The device provides 16-channel input, one Ethernet (RJ-45) port and a compact 2.05 kg metal housing suitable for rack installation.

Suitable for

• Upgrading multi-channel analog CCTV systems to IP surveillance
• Sites requiring PTZ control of analog cameras via RS-485
• Installations needing edge storage and reduced bandwidth usage
• Environments where secure, certified hardware is required
