AXIS Q1961-TE 7mm Thermal Network Camera (02174-001) - 30fps Thermometric Camera with Fire Detection & IP66/IK10 Protection
Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more". See below to give you some idea on angles of Megapixel HD Cameras:
| Lens in mm | Approx Viewing Angle (degrees) | Ideal Distance (metres) | Typical usage/notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.8 | 106 | <6 | For seeing as much of the immediate area as possible such as above a doorway/low down/garage soffits (edges can appear slightly warped/distorted) - clearly "zoomed out" |
| 3.6/4 | 83-90 | <12 | A great general purpose option giving great coverage still in the corner of a room or higher up on second floor soffits with less distortion - more of a natural "zoom" |
| 6 | 56 | 6-20 | Narrows down the angle and zooms in to look past the immediate area a little to gain more detail - down a driveway for example from higher up |
| 12 | 24 | 20+ | Zooms in significantly more to look at a gate, entrance or adjascent building |
| 16 | 19 | 24+ | As above but more so |
The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution, frame rate settings, and whether you have H.265 encoding enabled or not to save space (We advise turning it on to double the capacity shown below with ease).
Finally, you can often make your storage space last a lot longer by enabling motion-detected recording rather than continuous, especially if there are long periods of no activity (to perhaps double or more these figures again).

Days of storage provided by 1TB per camera (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (50% motion- 15 frames per second) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 44 | 11 | 36 |
| 2 | 22 | 5 | 18 |
| 3 | 17 | 4 | 14 |
| 4 | 11 | 3 | 9 |
| 5 | 9 | 2 | 8 |
| 6 | 8 | 2 | 6 |
| 8 (4K) | 5 | 1 | 4 |
| 12 | 4 | 0.5 | 3 |
As a rule of thumb, we recommend 2 Terabytes for a 4 x 4/5MP HD camera setup, as this should give you approx 2 weeks using H.265 @ 20fps and that is on continuous, not motion-detected recording.
(You may only require the full 25 frames per second on certain cameras if things are fast-moving - ie above a till)

AXIS Q1961-TE 7mm Thermal Network Camera (02174-001) – 30fps Thermometric Camera with Fire Detection & IP66/IK10 Protection
The AXIS Q1961-TE 7mm (02174-001) is a thermometric surveillance camera built for critical infrastructure and industrial monitoring. It detects heat signatures rather than visible light, allowing operation in total darkness, fog, smoke, or challenging visibility conditions. It supports temperature measurement from -40°C to 350°C, with configurable detection zones for monitoring hotspots and early fire risks. The 7 mm lens provides a wide field of view, making it suitable for area monitoring rather than long-distance identification. With 30 fps thermal video, IP66/IP67 weather protection, and IK10 impact resistance, it is designed for harsh outdoor environments. It also includes Axis cybersecurity features and edge analytics for automated alerts and event triggers.
Key Features:
- Thermal imaging camera (no visible-light sensor)
- 384 × 288 thermal resolution
- 7 mm lens with wide-angle coverage (~55° HFOV)
- 30 fps real-time thermal video output
- Temperature monitoring from -40°C to 350°C
- Early fire detection analytics
- Up to 10 configurable temperature zones
- Spot temperature measurement capability
- Works in complete darkness, smoke, and fog
- Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS)
- Edge-based analytics & alarm triggers
- IP66 / IP67 weather protection
- IK10 impact resistance
- PoE powered (Class 3)
- Edge storage support (microSD slot)
- Cybersecurity features (signed OS, secure boot)
