Axis 02547-001 TP3906 Camera Microphone Kit
Overview
The Axis TP3906 microphone kit (model 02547-001) adds audio input capability to compatible Axis P32-series network cameras. Deployed in environments where synchronized audio is critical—retail floors, reception areas, entry vestibules, parking structures—the kit captures clear sound to pair with Forensic WDR video, turning video-only recordings into forensically complete evidence. No separate audio encoder or external recorder needed when your camera already supports audio input; audio streams alongside video in the same RTSP session, simplifying playback and archival.
Compatibility
The TP3906 kit is engineered for Axis P32-series network cameras. Verify your specific model supports audio input before ordering—not all P32 variants are audio-enabled. Consult the camera's datasheet or contact pre-sales engineering to confirm audio input is present on your target models. Once confirmed compatible, the microphone connects via the camera's built-in audio input connector; no firmware updates or additional drivers are required beyond standard ONVIF or proprietary VMS integration.
Installation Notes
The microphone capsule mounts inside or adjacent to the camera dome or turret housing, depending on your P32 form factor. Cable routing must avoid pinching or sharp bends; most installations secure the cable with the supplied clips or tie-downs along the camera's mounting arm. Ensure the microphone is positioned to minimize wind noise if mounted near exterior air handling units or in open-air loading areas. Audio gain is configured in the camera's web interface or VMS—set conservatively to avoid clipping when loud events (alarm horns, equipment start-up) occur near the microphone. Test audio levels during commissioning before finalizing the installation.
