Product Features
Technical Overview
At the core of the Q6078-E is an 8-megapixel RGB CMOS image sensor capable of capturing 3840 x 2160 resolution video at up to 60 frames per second. This high frame rate ensures smooth motion rendition critical for monitoring fast-moving subjects or events. The camera supports modern compression standards including H.265 (HEVC) and H.264 (AVC) alongside Motion JPEG, providing flexibility for bandwidth management and storage optimization in various network environments.
The integrated 20x optical zoom varifocal lens offers focal lengths from 4.4 mm (wide) to 88.4 mm (telephoto), delivering both broad area coverage and detailed close-up capability without digital interpolation. This optical zoom is complemented by electronic image stabilization, defog, and wide dynamic range processing to maintain image quality across challenging lighting conditions and camera movements.

Deployment / Use Cases
The AXIS Q6078-E is designed for perimeter security, critical infrastructure monitoring, transportation hubs, and commercial facilities where high-resolution coverage of large areas is required. Its 20x optical zoom allows operators to digitally pan, tilt, and zoom to investigate incidents without physically repositioning the camera, making it ideal for applications where detailed identification at distance is necessary.
The camera's extensive mounting options—including ceiling, wall, corner, pole, parapet, pendant, bracket, and recessed mounts—provide installation flexibility for both new construction and retrofit projects. The PoE power capability simplifies deployment by carrying both data and power over a single Ethernet cable, reducing installation complexity and cost in outdoor environments where power outlets may be limited or expensive to provision.
Perimeter and Border Security
The long zoom range and high-resolution imaging enable detailed monitoring of fence lines, entry points, and restricted areas from centralized positions, reducing the number of cameras required for comprehensive coverage.
Critical Infrastructure Protection
Industrial facilities, utilities, and transportation hubs benefit from the camera's environmental toughness and advanced analytics for monitoring equipment, detecting unauthorized access, and ensuring operational security in challenging conditions.
Physical Profile
Housed in a white dome enclosure measuring 10.60" in height and 9.13" in diameter, the Q6078-E presents a discreet profile suitable for both visible and covert surveillance applications. The dome form factor helps protect the lens from weather elements and makes the camera's viewing direction less obvious to subjects. Despite its robust construction, the camera maintains a manageable weight of 8.27 pounds for installation on various mounting surfaces without requiring excessive structural support.

FAQ
What is the maximum resolution and frame rate of the AXIS Q6078-E camera?
The AXIS Q6078-E captures 8-megapixel video at 3840 x 2160 resolution (4K Ultra HD) with a maximum frame rate of 60 frames per second. This high frame rate ensures smooth motion rendition for monitoring fast-moving subjects and provides exceptional detail for both real-time viewing and forensic analysis.
What type of zoom capability does this camera offer?
This camera features a 20x optical zoom varifocal lens with focal lengths ranging from 4.4 mm (wide angle) to 88.4 mm (telephoto). Optical zoom maintains full image quality throughout the zoom range, unlike digital zoom which simply crops the image. The varifocal design allows adjustment of the field of view during installation to optimize coverage for specific surveillance needs.
Is the Q6078-E suitable for outdoor installation in harsh environments?
Yes, the Q6078-E is specifically designed for demanding outdoor applications. It carries IP66 and IP67 ingress protection ratings against dust and water immersion, plus an IK10 impact resistance rating. The camera operates reliably in temperatures from -58°F to 122°F (-50°C to 50°C) and tolerates up to 100% humidity, making it suitable for installation in extreme weather conditions.
How is the camera powered and connected to the network?
The camera supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) using the included Axis High PoE 60 W SFP midspan injector, which delivers both data and power over a single Ethernet cable. This simplifies installation by eliminating the need for separate power wiring at the camera location. The camera connects via a standard RJ-45 network interface for wired connectivity.
What video compression formats does the camera support?
The Q6078-E supports H.265 (HEVC), H.264 (AVC), and Motion JPEG compression formats. H.265 provides approximately 50% better compression efficiency than H.264, reducing bandwidth and storage requirements for 4K video. The camera also supports Axis Zipstream technology, which further optimizes bandwidth by reducing data in less critical areas of the image while maintaining detail where it matters most.
What mounting options are available for this dome camera?
The camera supports eight different mounting configurations: corner mount, bracket mount, ceiling mount, pole mount, parapet mount, wall mount, pendant mount, and recessed mount. This flexibility allows installation on various surfaces and structures to achieve optimal viewing angles for different surveillance scenarios, from building perimeters to parking facilities.
What storage is included?
The system includes Memory Card of storage for applications, files, and everyday business data.
