High Performance

The AXIS 221 Day & Night Network Camera is a high performance camera for round-the-clock surveillance over IP networks. The camera provides high quality images under all lighting conditions, which makes it an ideal solution for indoor/outdoor applications, e.g. surveillance of buildings, roads, parking areas, garages, railway stations and airports.

Day Night Functionality

Day & Night functionality

The AXIS 221 features an automatic, removable infrared-cut filter, which enables the camera to provide color video when there is sufficient light, and black/white video in dark conditions. It uses a high performance Pentax lens and a progressive scan CCD image sensor that enables moving objects to be presented without distortion.

Advanced event management

The AXIS 221 also supports a number of advanced features that give the camera increased flexibility and capabilities, including Power over Ethernet, video motion detection, pre- and post-alarm buffer, and inputs/outputs for connecting external devices such as door sensors and relays to activate light or close doors.
