Telecamera di sicurezza IP dome AXIS P3278-LV — 3840×2160, interno/esterno, montaggio a soffitto/parete, 103° HFOV, CMOS 1/1,8 inch

AXIS P3278-LV is an IP dome security camera designed for indoor and outdoor surveillance with ceiling or wall mounting. It captures up to 3840×2160 (8 MP) using a 1/1.8" CMOS sensor and a 103° horizontal field of view. Built on the ARTPEC‑9 platform, the camera supports AV1, H.264 and H.265 codecs and incorporates Lightfinder 2.0, Forensic WDR and OptimizedIR to deliver clear color and detail in a wide range of lighting conditions, including near darkness. The unit provides panoramic capability with 190° rotation, a minimum illumination of 0.03 lx, and a 55 dB signal‑to‑noise ratio for reliable image quality. Wired Ethernet connectivity and onboard audio I/O extend integration options.

Advantages

AXIS P3278-LV combines high-resolution 8 MP imaging with edge-based AI processing powered by ARTPEC‑9 and a deep learning processing unit (DLPU). This enables advanced analytics such as object detection, classification, tracking and counting without constant cloud processing. Zipstream support including AV1 significantly reduces bandwidth and storage needs while maintaining image fidelity. The camera is designed to withstand vandalism and harsh environments (IK10, NEMA 4X, IP54) and includes hardware-based security through Axis Edge Vault for protected key storage and secure cryptographic operations.

Suitable for

• Perimeter and entrance monitoring for commercial buildings
• Indoor surveillance in retail, banking and public spaces
• Outdoor coverage where vandal resistance and weather protection are required
• Sites requiring edge analytics for people detection, counting and tracking

How to use

Install the AXIS P3278-LV on a ceiling or wall using appropriate mounting hardware and routing for the Ethernet cable. Configure network settings and video stream parameters through the camera web interface or compatible VMS, selecting desired codec (AV1/H.265/H.264) and Zipstream options to balance image quality with bandwidth. Enable on‑device analytics such as AXIS Object Analytics and AXIS Image Health Analytics according to the monitoring requirements. Connect an external microphone to the audio jack if audio capture is needed and configure I/O for alarms or external devices.

Recommendations

Position the camera to take advantage of its 103° HFOV and panoramic rotation for wide coverage without excessive optical distortion. For best low‑light performance, enable Lightfinder 2.0 and Forensic WDR; use OptimizedIR for pitch‑dark areas. Use AV1 or H.265 with Axis Zipstream to reduce storage and bandwidth costs. Ensure the device is mounted securely and that intrusion detection is active to receive tamper alerts; keep firmware and security certificates up to date to maintain Axis Edge Vault protections.
