Axis AXIS F2137-RE 5MP Fisheye Sensor Unit

Axis Communications F2137-RE Overview

The AXIS F2137-RE is a 5MP fisheye rugged outdoor sensor unit designed for integration with the Axis F91 modular camera platform. This panoramic sensor unit is engineered for harsh outdoor environments requiring IP66 and IP6K9K protection ratings. The F2137-RE delivers ultra-wide 185° horizontal field of view through its 1.98mm focal length fisheye lens, making it ideal for perimeter surveillance, parking areas, and wide-area monitoring installations where a single sensor can capture expansive scenes.

Axis F2137-RE Key Features

• 5MP Resolution (2592x1944) — High-definition panoramic capture providing detailed forensic-grade imagery across wide horizontal coverage areas
• Extreme Wide-Angle Fisheye Optics — 185° horizontal field of view with 1.98mm focal length enables single-unit perimeter coverage, reducing overall camera deployment footprint
• IP66 and IP6K9K Rugged Certification — Meets dust ingress prevention and high-pressure water jet standards, delivering reliable outdoor performance in car wash, high-pressure cleaning, and coastal salt-spray environments
• Modular F91 Platform Integration — Sensor-only design compatible with all AXIS F91 main units, enabling flexible architecture where processing, networking, and frame rate are decoupled from optics
• Frame Rate Flexibility — Supports variable capture rates (10–60 fps) depending on selected F91 main unit and resolution mode (5MP or QuadHD 2560x1440), with or without WDR
• Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) Support — Available through compatible F91 main units; WDR operation at 20–30 fps enables clear imaging in high-contrast outdoor lighting
• Compact, Lightweight Design — Dimensions 58mm (2.28 in) length, ø29.8mm (1.2 in) diameter; weight 54g (0.1 lb) reduces mounting load and installation complexity
• Accessory Ecosystem — Full compatibility with F2135-RE accessory lineup, including right-angle SMA adapter (TU6002) and site design/device management tools
• Industrial-Grade Materials — PVC-free, BFR/CFR-free, RoHS and REACH compliant construction ensures environmental responsibility and long-term reliability
• 5-Year Manufacturer Warranty — Comprehensive coverage supports long-term deployment confidence in critical surveillance infrastructure

Axis F2137-RE Integration and Compatibility

The F2137-RE sensor unit connects to any AXIS F91 main unit via required AXIS TU6004-E, TU6005, or TU6007-E cables (sold separately). This modular architecture decouples sensor optics from processing and network functions, allowing integrators to pair the fisheye sensor with main units optimized for specific frame rate, codec, or analytics requirements. System tools including AXIS SiteDesigner, AXIS DeviceManager, product selector, and accessory selector simplify design and deployment planning. The sensor operates across multiple languages (English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Polish, Dutch, Czech, Swedish, Finnish, Turkish, Thai, Vietnamese) supporting global deployment scenarios.
