AXIS 262
Network Video Recorder
Prevent shoplifting, reduce false alarms, increase personnel
safety or view your premises remotely – by using a comprehensive
Axis surveillance solution.
The AXIS 262 Network Video Recorder is a complete recording
solution which is easy to use and install. It is ideal for storing
video with up to megapixel resolution with no quality
degradation; it will always give you the same image quality as
the original image from the camera or video server. The 160 GB
hard disk allows you to store e.g. 10 days of VGA resolution at
one frame per second, eight channels. View, record and playback
video from up to eight Axis network cameras simultaneously,
via remote access. Scheduled and triggered recordings can be
performed at a recording speed of up to 240 frames per second.
Connecting directly to your network, the open application
protocol interface (API) and sophisticated networking functions
based on open industry standards greatly simplify systems
integration. Together with Axis network cameras and video
servers, the AXIS 262 Network Video Recorder offers the
complete surveillance solution.

Video Recorder
The AXIS 292 Network
Video Decoder is used
to display video from
one camera on an
analog monitor
Use a standard IP network to install your complete surveillance system. In the illustration above, a dedicated video
surveillance network is formed when an AXIS 262 Network Video Recorder and four cameras are connected to a switch.
This design minimizes its impact on the office network traffic since no traffic will occur between the camera switch and
the office switch unless an authorized viewer on the office network wants access to live and recorded video.
