AXIS P1518-LE Box Camera
Two sensors for wide-angle and close-up views
Excellent image quality in any light
AI-powered analytics
Low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
Built-in cybersecurity with Axis Edge Vault
Ideal for building and perimeter protection, this dual-sensor, AI-powered box camera offers both wide-angle and close-up views of the same scene. It delivers excellent image quality under any light conditions.
Excellent wide-angle and close-up images 24/7
AXIS P1518-LE lets you see it all. With two sensors, you get two different views in one camera. One 1/1.2” image sensor offers exceptional low-light sensitivity and 8 MP at 30 fps for excellent wide-angle images in all light conditions. The other 1/2.8” sensor delivers 2 MP at 60 fps for close-up images without motion blur. Ideal at entrances and property fences, you can monitor the wide-angle overview and get a close-up view of anyone approaching. Lightfinder 2.0 and Forensic WDR ensure true colors and great forensic detail in challenging light or near darkness. And OptimizedIR enables surveillance in total darkness.

Smart investment: cost-efficient and robust
AXIS P1518-LE offers easy installation with low total cost of ownership. That’s because there’s only one camera to install, one cable to draw, one IP address, one VMS license, and one license for any analytics you choose to install. Plus, you only need to maintain one camera. And the tele lens offers fast and accurate installation thanks to its remote zoom and focus capabilities, combined with remote pan and tilt settings for minor adjustments. Robust and outdoor-ready, it can be installed, for instance, at intersections to monitor traffic flow and capture vehicle details. Furthermore, this IP66-, IP67-, IK10- and NEMA 4X-rated camera can withstand hurricane winds up to 60 m/s (134 mph).

AI-powered analytics with strong security
This high-performance camera includes a deep learning processing unit (DLPU). This enables improved processing and storage capabilities allowing you to collect and analyze even more data than before - on the edge. Plus, it delivers valuable metadata facilitating fast, easy, and efficient forensic search capabilities in live or recorded video. With AXIS Object Analytics preinstalled, it can detect and classify humans, vehicles, and types of vehicles - all tailored to your specific needs. Furthermore, Axis Edge Vault, a hardware-based cyber-security platform, safeguards the device and offers FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certified secure key storage and operations.
