Axis 02413-001 4MP PTZ Camera 30x Optical Zoom
The Axis Communications 02413-001 is a professional-grade PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) network camera engineered for large-area outdoor surveillance in demanding security environments. Delivering 4MP QHD resolution at 50fps or 60fps with 30x optical zoom and continuous 360° pan rotation, this camera combines exceptional optical reach with robust weatherproofing (IP66, IK10, NEMA 4X) to serve perimeter defense, critical infrastructure monitoring, and wide-area surveillance applications. Extended IR illumination to 200 meters, integrated analytics, and H.265 compression enable both forensic detail capture and bandwidth-efficient operation.
Key Features
- 4MP QHD Resolution: 2560×1440 capture at 50fps or 60fps for smooth motion tracking and forensically useful detail in fast-moving scenes
- 30x Optical Zoom with Autofocus: Delivers optical magnification enabling operators to identify and zoom to distant subjects while maintaining image sharpness across the entire zoom range
- Continuous 360° Pan Rotation: Unlimited panoramic coverage with motorized pan, enabling seamless tour recording and perimeter scanning without mechanical repositioning
- Extended IR Illumination: 200-meter (660-foot) IR range with day/night capability for round-the-clock surveillance in low-light and no-light conditions
- Rugged Environmental Rating: IP66 (dust/water ingress protection) and IK10 (impact resistance) rated for harsh outdoor deployments
- Advanced Video Compression: H.265 encoding for significant bandwidth and storage savings without compromising image quality
- Integrated Analytics Suite: Fence Guard, Loitering Guard, Audio Detection, Advanced Gatekeeper, Shock Detection, and Autotracker 2 for proactive threat detection and automated response
Technical Highlights
- Connectivity: PoE-powered for simplified installation and reduced cabling
- Audio Support: Integrated audio detection for multi-sensory threat identification
- Frame Rate: Selectable 50fps (PAL) or 60fps (NTSC) operation
- VMS Compatibility: Works with ONVIF, Milestone, Genetec, Axis Camera Station, and AXIS Companion platforms for flexible system integration
Ideal Applications
The 02413-001 is suited for perimeter monitoring of large facilities, transportation hubs, critical infrastructure protection, campus surveillance, and any deployment requiring extended focal range, robust environmental resistance, and intelligent video analytics. The combination of optical zoom range, 360° pan capability, and extended IR reach makes it ideal for scenarios where operators need to monitor expansive areas while maintaining the ability to zoom in on distant points of interest.

The 02413-001 represents a well-balanced outdoor PTZ offering. The 30x optical zoom and continuous 360° rotation provide exceptional coverage flexibility, while the 4MP resolution at 50/60fps ensures smooth panning without motion blur. The 200-meter IR range is particularly valuable for perimeter defense, though operators should note that effective recognition distances depend heavily on target size and ambient light conditions.
H.265 compression is a significant advantage for bandwidth-constrained networks or large-scale deployments. The built-in analytics—particularly Autotracker 2, Fence Guard, and Loitering Guard—reduce the operational burden of monitoring large areas. IP66 and IK10 ratings ensure durability in harsh weather and high-impact environments.
For integrators, native ONVIF compatibility combined with support for Milestone, Genetec, and Axis proprietary platforms offers deployment flexibility across different VMS ecosystems.
