AXIS P3905-R Mk III 2 Megapixel Full HD Network Camera for Rail Surveillance

The AXIS P3905-R Mk III is a purpose-built 2 Megapixel Full HD network camera designed to elevate onboard surveillance on railway vehicles. Engineered for trains and trams, this robust dome camera delivers crisp, dependable video in motion, even under demanding environmental and operational conditions. Built with Axis’ renowned imaging technology and a rugged form factor, the P3905-R Mk III combines precise video capture, reliable performance, and seamless integration with modern security ecosystems to help operators protect passengers, assets, and operations across rolling stock fleets.

• 2 MP Full HD video for clear, actionable footage: The camera provides high-resolution 2 Megapixel imagery that supports detailed playback and accurate incident analysis. Its Full HD output enables effective identification of individuals, objects, and events from moving trains and trams, with consistent performance across varying lighting conditions found inside vehicles and in tunnels or stations.
• Specialized for onboard railway monitoring: Designed specifically for onboard use on railway vehicles, including trains and trams, the AXIS P3905-R Mk III prioritizes stability, reliability, and ease of integration within constrained vehicle environments. It supports the unique challenges of rolling stock surveillance, such as vibration, limited space, and the need for rapid fleet-wide deployment and management.
• Rugged, durable dome camera for harsh conditions: Built to withstand tough operating environments, the dome camera features a robust enclosure and engineering that tolerates vibrations and temperature variations typical of rail networks. This resilience helps ensure continued imaging performance during service, maintenance cycles, and any adverse weather experiences near rail facilities.
• Flexible integration with security ecosystems: The P3905-R Mk III is designed to integrate with standard network video management systems and Axis security technologies. It supports centralized configuration, secure access, and streamlined firmware updates, enabling operators to manage multiple cameras across fleets from a single, coherent platform.
• Compact dome design for space-constrained rail installations: Its unobtrusive dome form factor fits neatly into the limited spaces inside passenger cars and control areas. The compact design supports easy installation in curved ceilings or shadowed corners, while maintaining effective field coverage for doorways, aisles, and operator consoles.

How to install AXIS P3905-R Mk III

• Plan the installation location on the rolling stock, prioritizing visibility for entry/exit points, aisles, doors, and operator workstations while considering vibrations and travel routes.
• Mount the dome housing securely using appropriate hardware capable of withstanding rail-induced vibrations and dynamic loads. Ensure the mounting surface is clean, level, and capable of supporting the camera’s weight.
• Run network cabling to the camera’s network interface and connect power where applicable, following the vehicle’s electrical standards and safety procedures. Verify cable integrity and strain relief to prevent disconnections during operation.
• Configure the camera in your network video management system (VMS): assign a unique IP address, set user permissions, establish secure access, and configure video streams, frame rates, and resolution to balance bandwidth with surveillance needs.
• Calibrate the field of view and alignment to cover critical zones (doors, seating areas, and corridors). Test video quality under typical lighting conditions, including transitions from bright exterior light to dim interior spaces and during night operations if applicable.
• Perform a functional check during normal vehicle operations to ensure stable image capture, reliable network connectivity, and consistent performance across multiple rolling stock units in the fleet. Document the installation for future maintenance and firmware updates.
