Axis’ Zipstream technology is compatible with H.264 compression standard and it has been developed specifically for video surveillance applications and lowers bandwidth and storage requirements by an average 50% or more, a statement said.

The Zipstream technology will be made available in existing network cameras AXIS Q1615, AXIS Q1635 and in the AXIS Q35 Series, via firmware updates. It would be also installed in upcoming AXIS M1124/-E, AXIS M1125/-E and AXIS P1365/-E fixed network cameras, and AXIS P3224-LV/-LVE and AXIS P3225-LV/-LVE fixed dome network cameras.

“Significant progress towards better image quality with higher HDTV resolutions and increased low-light performance has also increased the requirements on the network and storage infrastructure. With Axis’ Zipstream technology we enable our customers to drastically reduce bandwidth and storage needs without compromising on important image details,” a release said.

Axis’ Zipstream technology analyzes and optimizes the network camera’s video stream in real time. Scenes containing interesting details are recorded in full image quality and resolution while other areas are filtered out, to optimally use available bandwidth and storage.

AXIS M1124/-E, AXIS M1125/-E network cameras are planned to be available in Q2, 2015 at a MSRP at USD $449/$549 respectively.

AXIS P1365 and AXIS P1365-E are scheduled for launch on April 9, 2015, at a MSRP at USD $ 749 and USD $ 999, respectively, while AXIS P3224-LV/-LVE and AXIS P3225-LV/-LVE are planned to be available in Q2, 2015 at a MSRP starting from USD $599.
