Product Information

Axis Q1971-E

The Axis Q1972-E Thermal Camera (SKU: AXIS-Q1972-E) delivers dependable 24/7 detection and verification using advanced thermal imaging technology—regardless of lighting, weather, or environmental conditions. Ideal for perimeter protection and critical infrastructure surveillance, it excels even in low-contrast scenes, helping reduce false alarms and ensuring operational efficiency. With four available lens options (10 mm, 19 mm, 25 mm, and 35 mm), it offers flexible installation to suit both wide-area coverage and longer-range applications.

Thermal palettes enhance visual interpretation by distinguishing heat sources more clearly, while Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) ensures smooth and stable video in environments prone to movement or vibration. Since thermal cameras do not capture identifiable features, the Q1972-E naturally supports privacy compliance, making it a smart choice for sensitive locations where security and discretion are paramount.
