Axis P3905-R Mk III M12 2.8mm Overview
The Axis P3905-R Mk III M12 2.8mm is a rugged 1080p fixed dome camera designed for onboard and mobile surveillance applications requiring industrial-grade durability. Supplied as a bulk pack of 10 units (MPN 03117-021), this camera combines a wide-angle 2.8mm F1.2 lens with IP66/IP67 environmental protection and M12 field-installable network connectivity. The M12 connector eliminates RJ45 bulk and enables flexible pigtail integration for mobile deployments, rail applications, and confined mounting spaces.
Axis P3905-R Mk III M12 2.8mm Key Features
- 1080p Full HD Resolution (2 MP) — Captures crisp 16:9 video at native 1920×1080 down to 640×360, with support for multiple aspect ratios (16:10 and 4:3 cropped modes) for flexible recording profiles.
- Fast F1.2 2.8mm Fixed Lens — Ultra-wide 107° horizontal field of view with superior low-light sensitivity and bright aperture ideal for interior vehicle and equipment monitoring. Fixed iris eliminates moving parts; minimum focus distance 0.3m.
- Forensic WDR Up to 120 dB — Advanced wide dynamic range processing handles extreme backlit and high-contrast scenes common in transit and industrial environments, with forensic scene profile for forensic-grade detail recovery.
- Exceptional Low-Light Performance — Achieves 0.02 lux @ 30 fps (IREF 1.2) and 0.07 lux @ 50 fps (IREF 1.2) with Lightfinder processing, enabling color video in near-dark conditions without IR supplementation.
- IP66/IP67 Sealed Enclosure — Rugged dome housing withstands dust ingress, high-pressure washdown, and submersion, certified for harsh mobile and outdoor environments including splash and spray from any direction.
- M12 Circular Connector on Pigtail — 10-pin M12 field-installable network connector enables quick disconnection, flexible cable routing, and simplified installation in mobile platforms and legacy harness systems; RJ45 variant available separately.
- H.264, H.265, and Motion JPEG Compression — Supports H.264 Main and High Profiles, H.265 Main Profile, and Motion JPEG with configurable bitrate control (VBR/ABR/MBR) and Axis Zipstream technology for bandwidth and storage optimization across up to 4 unique video streams.
- 25/30 fps at All Resolutions — Delivers frame rates for both 50 Hz and 60 Hz power systems; Motion JPEG capped at 15 fps for bandwidth-constrained links.
- Comprehensive Image Controls — Manual shutter speed (1/17000 to 1/5 s, extended to 1/19000 with WDR), digital PTZ with preset positions and guard tours, 32 polygonal privacy masks, rotation modes (0°, 90°, 180°, 270°), and corridor format support for vertical deployments.
- Spatial and Temporal Noise Reduction — 2D and 3D noise filtering optimizes video quality in low-light and high-motion scenes without sacrificing frame rate or dynamic range.
- S6LM55 System on Chip (SoC) — High-performance ARM-based processor with 1024 MB RAM and 512 MB Flash storage for on-camera processing, analytics, and firmware updates.
- Includes Lens Tool — Supplied with mechanical adjustment tool for field lens servicing and focus verification in confined mounting spaces.
Axis P3905-R Mk III M12 2.8mm Deployment Considerations
The P3905-R Mk III M12 variant is certified for rolling stock (rail transit) applications, making it ideal for train cars, buses, trams, and enclosed vehicle surveillance. The M12 connector integrates directly into vehicle power and network harnesses, eliminating external cable clutter. Fixed lens design ensures consistent coverage without motor failure risk—critical for mission-critical transit and industrial monitoring. The compact dome form factor allows discrete mounting on ceiling rails, walls, and bulkheads in confined spaces. ONVIF compliance enables integration with standard VMS platforms; consult your integrator for profile support and firmware compatibility with legacy systems.
