Axis F9114-B Mk II 4-Channel Modular Main Unit
The AXIS F9114-B Mk II is a 4-channel barebone main unit engineered as the central processing hub for modular F-series network surveillance systems. Designed for integrators deploying scalable, multi-sensor architectures, this mainframe accepts up to four interchangeable F21, F72, or F41 sensor units, enabling flexible configurations tailored to specific deployment requirements. The modular design reduces installation complexity while maintaining centralized signal management, audio synchronization, and I/O control across distributed sensor nodes.
Key Features

The F9114-B Mk II represents Axis's modular surveillance philosophy, allowing integrators to build custom multi-sensor systems without purchasing monolithic fixed-channel hardware. The barebone design keeps initial costs competitive while the support for multiple sensor types (F21, F72, F41) provides flexibility across resolution, framerate, and field-of-view requirements. Dual audio input channels enable synchronized sound capture across multiple vantage points—critical for incident investigation.
PoE Class 4 efficiency (25.5W max) ensures compatibility with standard enterprise switches, reducing infrastructure overhead. The auxiliary 10–48V DC input provides fallback power redundancy for mission-critical deployments. This unit is ideal for system integrators who need to deliver scalable, future-proof surveillance without architectural lock-in.
