The AXIS Q1800-LE License Plate Camera (03107-001) is a purpose-tuned, high-performance license plate camera designed for accurate plate capture around the clock. With a 7–137 mm varifocal lens, Forensic WDR, Lightfinder 2.0, and OptimizedIR, it delivers clear, readable plates across a wide range of distances and lighting conditions, including complete darkness.
Built on the ARTPEC-8 system-on-chip with deep learning processing, this camera is fully compatible with third-party LPR software and integrates seamlessly with leading video management systems. Its rugged, IP66- and NEMA 4X-rated aluminum enclosure with IK10 body protection ensures reliable operation in harsh weather, while extensive cybersecurity features help safeguard your system end to end.
High-speed, long-range license plate capture with robust protection
- Accurate plate capture at speed: Capture vehicle plates at speeds up to 250 km/h (155 mph) and distances up to 100 m (328 ft), supporting demanding traffic and monitoring scenarios.
- Optimized for day and night: Automatic IR-cut filter, IR-pass night filter, and OptimizedIR provide reliable plate visibility from 20–100 m by day and 20–50 m by night, with extended range using optional IR illuminators.
- Powerful image quality tools: Forensic WDR up to 120 dB, Lightfinder 2.0, local contrast, tone mapping, and advanced noise reduction maintain forensic detail in challenging light and weather.
- Deep learning-enabled platform: ARTPEC-8 with DLPU and AXIS Object Analytics enables rich metadata, advanced object classification, and flexible rule-based event handling.
- Rugged outdoor design: IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings, IK10 body and IK08 glass, wide operating temperature range, and extensive environmental testing ensure dependable operation in tough conditions.
- Flexible power and connectivity: Multiple PoE classes, DC/AC power options, and PoE output for a second device simplify deployment and system design.
- Hardened cybersecurity: Axis Edge Vault, signed OS and video, secure boot, encrypted filesystem, and comprehensive network security protocols help protect devices and data.
Ideal use cases
- High-speed vehicle monitoring where accurate license plate capture is required at up to 250 km/h and long detection distances.
- Single-lane or two-lane monitoring scenarios using optional edge analytics or server-based analytics for flexible coverage.
- Outdoor installations exposed to harsh weather, vibration, and temperature extremes requiring IP66, NEMA 4X, and IK10-rated equipment.
- Sites needing deep integration with third-party LPR and VMS platforms via open APIs and ONVIF Profiles G, M, S, and T.
- Deployments with strict cybersecurity and compliance requirements, leveraging Axis Edge Vault and certified security features.
