Introducing the AXIS Q1656-BLE, a pinnacle of industrial security cameras, tailored for outdoor applications with a barebone design featuring a 4 MP resolution and an impressive 1/1.8” sensor. This camera excels in challenging light conditions, delivering exceptional video quality at 60 fps, thanks to Lightfinder 2.0 and premium Q-line functionality. What sets it apart is its deep learning capabilities powered by the latest Axis system-on-chip (SoC) with a dedicated deep learning processing unit (DLPU). This eliminates the need for expensive servers and enhances scalability for edge analytics.
Customization is at your fingertips, as the camera comes without a lens and mounting, allowing you to tailor it to meet your specific needs. The inclusion of a built-in wiper ensures reliable performance even in adverse weather conditions. With support for ACAP version 4, the AXIS Q1656-BLE opens avenues for tailored applications based on deep learning at the edge, including detection and classification of humans and vehicles.
Designed with reliability and security in mind, this camera boasts an impact-resistant IK10-rated casing, IP66, IP67, NEMA 4X, and NEMA TS2 ratings, making it resilient against harsh environments. It supports PoE and redundant DC power, ensuring flexible installation, while cybersecurity features safeguard against unauthorized access, making it a reliable choice for industrial and machine vision applications.
