The new AXIS M1025 Network Camera meets the needs of small stores, boutiques, offices and residential users looking for an easy-to-install and affordable network camera solution.

Axis Communications, the market leader in network video, announces AXIS M1025, an indoor, network camera with a compact design that delivers excellent video quality in full HDTV 1080p or 2 megapixel resolution, in full frame rate. The camera includes smart features like support for HDMI output (Micro) for live streaming onto a monitor at HDTV 720p; support for memory card to store videos; Corridor Format that optimizes the surveillance of narrow corridors and aisles, and support for Power over Ethernet in addition to DC power.

“AXIS M1025 is the first full HDTV 1080p / 2 megapixel camera in the successful AXIS M10 Series. With this camera we have added support for HDMI output (Micro) and also Power over Ethernet,” says Erik Frännlid, Axis’ Director of Product Management. “The HDMI output (Micro) will be useful for those retail stores where a public view monitor is required, and Power over Ethernet simplifies installation and saves time and cost. Small system surveillance users, security managers of small offices and home users will enjoy the flexibility of this stylish and affordable camera.”

AXIS M1025 Network Camera also features support for AXIS Video Hosting System with one-click camera connection, making the camera ideal for a hosted video solution.
