AXIS 223M
Network Camera
AXIS 223M Network Camera is a high performance camera,
designed for demanding security installations. It delivers crisp and
clear images disclosing every detail, thanks to its top quality 2.0
Megapixel progressive scan CCD sensor, Megapixel varifocal lens
and advanced image processing. This camera delivers more than 4
times better resolution compared to a high-resolution analog
camera.
AXIS 223M features true day/night functionality with its
automatically removable infrared cut filter, which enables color
video in high and low light conditions as well as IR sensitive, black/
white video at night.
Built-in support for Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) enables
the camera to be powered via the network, consolidating power
and reducing installation costs by eliminating the need for a power
outlet.
AXIS 223M offers the most comprehensive set of network security
and management capabilities in the network video market. Support
for IEEE802.1X allows the camera to connect to a network secured
with port-based control, and HTTPS encryption provides a secure
channel to the camera and enables authentication of the video
source. Installation and supervision of Axis video products is
efficiently handled with the powerful AXIS Camera Management
and AXIS Installation Monitor tools. AXIS 223M supports Internet
Protocol version 6 (IPv6) in addition to version 4, as insurance
against the growing shortage of IPv4 addresses.
Supported by the industry’s largest base of video management
software, AXIS 223M provides the perfect solution for securing
bank offices, airports and other facilities, as well as for city and
traffic surveillance, over IP based networks.

Light as perceived by the human eye
ranges between wavelengths of ~400-700
nm. Infrared light exists in nature at higher
wavelengths, which can not be perceived
by the human eye. IR light is filtered away
in the camera by an IR cut filter in order
to render a ”human image”, AXIS 223M
can thus produce high quality b/w pictures
by removing the IR cut filter when light
conditions are too dark to render colors.
