They are all specially designed for onboard video surveillance in or on buses, trams, subway cars and other rugged environment vehicles. The IP6K9K-compliant Axis P3905-RE network camera is designed to be mounted on the exterior of a vehicle for rear view surveillance alongside the vehicle outer surface, down-mounted over a door or as a forward-facing camera. It is able to withstand tough conditions such as vibrations, shocks, bumps and temperature fluctuations as well as normal vehicle maintenance.

The camera comes with a 6mm lens that provides a 55-degree horizontal field of view optimised for the typical use of surveillance alongside a vehicle.  If a wider field of view is required, the housing also allows customer to change to a 3.6mm lens offering an 87-degree horizontal field of view.
