AI-powered long-range dome for demanding outdoor surveillance

AXIS Q3556-LVE 51 mm Dome Camera is a robust 4 MP, AI-powered outdoor dome designed to deliver outstanding image quality in the harshest environments. Built on the ARTPEC-9 system-on-chip with a deep learning processing unit, it combines high-resolution imaging, powerful on-board analytics, and long-range telephoto optics to secure wide areas and distant targets with precision.

With its 13–51 mm varifocal telephoto lens, OptimizedIR up to 70 m, Forensic WDR, and Lightfinder 2.0, this dome captures sharp, detailed video in challenging lighting and complete darkness. AXIS Audio Analytics, AXIS Object Analytics, and Axis Edge Vault cybersecurity make it a smart, hardened edge device that enhances both situational awareness and protection of sensitive data.
