Axis P3905-R MK III M12 Dome Camera

Axis Communications P3905-R Mk III M12 Overview

The AXIS P3905-R Mk III M12 is a fixed compact dome camera designed for indoor surveillance deployments requiring industrial-grade M12 connectivity. This model ships in bulk quantities (10 pcs per order, part number 02671-021) and delivers 1920×1080 HD video with dual codec support (H.264 and H.265) and Axis Zipstream technology for efficient bandwidth utilization. The camera is ideal for security integrators and system installers needing standardized, field-deployable dome units with M12 mount connectors for harsh or industrial environments.

Axis P3905-R Mk III M12 Key Features

• Dual-Lens Options with 3.6mm Fixed Lens (3.6mm F2.0): Delivers 88° horizontal and 47° vertical field of view with 0.3 m minimum focus distance. Fixed iris, M12 mount, optimized for typical indoor and mid-range perimeter surveillance applications.
• 1080p HD Resolution (1920×1080): 1/2.9" progressive-scan RGB CMOS sensor with 2.8 µm pixel size. Supports multiple output formats including 16:9, 16:10, and 4:3 aspect ratios down to QVGA (320×240).
• Advanced Video Compression: Native support for H.264 (Main and High Profiles) and H.265 (Main Profile) codec at 25/30 fps. Motion JPEG also available at 15 fps. Axis Zipstream technology enables intelligent bandwidth and storage reduction without sacrificing image quality.
• Up to 4 Configurable Video Streams: Deploy multiple individually configured streams in H.264, H.265, and Motion JPEG simultaneously. Supports controllable frame rate and bandwidth with VBR, ABR, and MBR modes for optimized network performance.
• Low-Light Performance with WDR: Minimum illumination 0.04 lux (30 IREF) in color mode at F2.0. Forensic WDR provides up to 120 dB dynamic range depending on scene complexity, ideal for mixed lighting conditions. Spatial (2D) and temporal (3D) noise reduction filters included.
• Comprehensive Image Control: Full adjustment of compression, brightness, sharpness, contrast, white balance, and exposure control. 32 individual polygonal privacy masks, scene profiles (forensic, vivid, traffic overview), and dynamic overlay support for metadata insertion.
• Digital Pan/Tilt/Zoom with Presets: Supports ±30° pan, 15–90° tilt, and ±175° rotation. Digital PTZ with preset positions, guard tour functionality, and control queue for automated surveillance workflows.
• M12 Industrial Connectivity: Rugged M12 connector for reliable, field-deployable installations in industrial control networks and harsh environments. Bulk 10-pack format (02671-021) reduces per-unit cost and simplifies fleet deployments.
• S6LM55 System-on-Chip Architecture: Integrated image processor with Axis Zipstream, Forensic WDR, and Lightfinder technologies. 1024 MB RAM and 512 MB flash memory for smooth multi-stream operation and onboard storage of firmware and configurations.
• Flexible Shutter and Exposure: Shutter speed from 1/17000 s to 1/5 s (WDR) or 1/19000 s to 1/5 s (no WDR). Exposure adjustment zones and fine-tuning for low-light performance ensure consistent image quality across dynamic lighting conditions.

Axis P3905-R Mk III M12 Integration & Compatibility

The P3905-R Mk III M12 integrates via ONVIF-compliant protocols, supporting standard network video management systems and third-party surveillance platforms. M12 connector enables direct integration into industrial IP networks and fieldbus environments. Axis Zipstream compression reduces bandwidth demands on edge and cloud storage, making this camera suitable for distributed surveillance architectures. The camera's support for multiple simultaneous video streams allows independent configuration for live monitoring, recording, and analytics pipelines without codec re-encoding penalties.
