New private cellular back box redefines secure, scalable deployments

The AXIS TP3604-E Private Cellular Back Box enables high-performance IP cameras to operate without traditional wired infrastructure, providing greater deployment flexibility. It connects compatible AXIS P14 and AXIS P32 cameras directly to an enterprise Private Cellular Network (PCN), eliminating the need for costly trenching and complex cabling. As a result, integrators can rapidly deploy cameras wherever PCN coverage and AC power are available, bypassing the limitations of Wi-Fi or public cellular networks while delivering fast, reliable connectivity through a dedicated private network.

This opens new possibilities for surveillance in remote or infrastructure-limited environments and provides a scalable foundation for expanding surveillance systems and integrating additional IoT devices. Depending on the cell configuration and deployment environment, coverage can range from a few hundred meters to several kilometers per base station.

Additionally, the security architecture of private cellular networks—including SIM-based device authentication, strong encryption and controlled device provisioning—helps to further protect data and communications.

The AXIS TP3604-E is expected to launch in the U.S. in August 2026, with availability in select EMEA countries.

Global shutter camera delivers unrivaled precision for high-speed environments

The AXIS P1486-LE Global Shutter Camera, the first of its kind in the video surveillance industry, sets a new standard for capturing critical detail in high-speed environments. Using advanced CMOS global shutter technology, it delivers distortion-free images of fast-moving objects, eliminating motion blur and rolling shutter artifacts to support accurate identification and forensic analysis. Its built-in continuous and strobing IR illumination ensures clear capture of vehicles and license plates even in challenging lighting conditions. Powered by the ARTPEC-9 system-on-chip, the camera supports advanced edge analytics for real-time processing and intelligent insights directly on the device, reducing server load. Engineered for continuous operation, it is purpose-built for demanding applications such as traffic monitoring, logistics hubs, manufacturing lines, and other high-speed environments where precision is critical.

The AXIS P1486-LE Global Shutter Camera will be available through Axis distribution channels June 2026.

Edge-based license plate recognition streamlines vehicle access

Complementing Axis’ new global shutter camera in high-speed environments and challenging traffic conditions is AXIS License Plate Verifier, an edge-based analytics application that provides license plate recognition for both vehicle access control and free-flow traffic scenarios. Running directly on compatible Axis cameras, the solution enables real-time vehicle identification without the need for dedicated servers. Developed by FF Group, whose advanced LPR analytics are now part of Axis, the Verifier leverages this technology to power automated allowlists and blocklists that can trigger actions such as opening gates or barriers, while logged events support efficient search and review.

The latest version of AXIS License Plate Verifier is currently available to license or for free 60-day trial ataxis.com

New thermal solutions drive advanced detection and proactive monitoring

Axis is expanding its thermal portfolio with two new offerings—the AXIS Q2802-E Bispectral Camera and the AXIS F2180-TE Thermal Sensor —designed to enhance situational awareness and enable proactive monitoring. By combining thermal and visual imaging in a single device, the Q2802-E enables operators to merge detection, verification, and environmental monitoring into one intelligent sensor platform.

The AXIS Q2802-E Bispectral Camera pairs a high-resolution 640x480 thermal sensor with a 4K visual sensor in a single device, enabling long-range detection and remote temperature monitoring. Its thermal-visual image fusion overlays critical thermal data onto the visual stream, improving scene interpretation and enabling precise alerts and temperature-based alarms. Built-in cybersecurity with Axis Edge Vault helps protect device integrity and sensitive data. The camera is well suited for applications such as perimeter protection, critical infrastructure monitoring, and operational efficiency.

For more discreet deployments, the AXIS F2180-TE Thermal Sensor provides spot temperature readings and deviation alerts when integrated with AXIS F91 main units, enabling precise monitoring in sensitive or space-constrained environments.

The AXIS Q2802-E Bispectral Camera and the AXIS F2180-TE Thermal Sensor will be available through Axis distribution channels Q2 2026.

Panoramic cameras for expansive, detailed views

New additions to the panoramic camera lineup, the M4337/38 PLVE and the AXIS M4347/48 PLVE Panoramic Cameras, redefine wide-area surveillance with unparalleled detail and versatility. Available in 6 MP and 12 MP models, these true 360° cameras feature built-in IR for clear images in total darkness, and the AXIS M4347/48 adds integrated microphones for audio streaming and analytics. Powered by the latest ARTPEC-9 chip, these cameras support advanced edge analytics and offer robust designs (IP66, IK10 ratings, -40C to +50C temperature range) suited for demanding indoor and outdoor installations. This series provides a single-camera solution for expansive coverage, reducing installation complexity and cost while maximizing situational awareness.

The new AXIS M43 Series will be available through Axis distribution channels Q2 2026.

NBA tipoff: Round 2 continues Sunday with Knicks-76ers and Spurs-Timberwolves

Oklahoma City is about to break a tie.

Before this year, there were 18 teams that started an NBA postseason with a 7-0 record. Of those, nine went on to win the championship, and nine didn't.

The Thunder are the 19th member of that club after beating the Los Angeles Lakers for a 3-0 lead in their Western Conference semifinal series on Saturday night.

The nine teams that started 7-0 and went on to win the title: Minneapolis in 1949 and 1950, the LA Lakers in 1982 and 2001, Philadelphia in 1983, Detroit in 1989, Chicago in 1993, Cleveland in 2016 and Golden State in 2017.

The nine that didn’t win it all: the Lakers in 1989, Indiana in 1999, Miami in 2005 and 2020, Detroit in 2007, Cleveland in 2009 and 2017, Orlando in 2010 and San Antonio in 2012.

On Sunday, there are two games but three outcomes to follow: New York will be in Philadelphia looking to finish off a sweep, San Antonio will look to take a 3-1 series lead at Minnesota and the NBA draft lottery is being held in Chicago.

— Game 4, New York at Philadelphia, 3:30 p.m. EDT (ABC)

Series: New York, 3-0.

Odds: New York by 1.5.

The Flyers got swept out of Round 2 of the Stanley Cup playoffs on Saturday. The 76ers will look to keep Philly fans from seeing it happen again on Sunday. For whatever it's worth, the 76ers and Flyers have never been swept in the same year.

— Game 4, San Antonio at Minnesota, 7:30 p.m. EDT (NBC, Peacock)

Series: San Antonio, 2-1.

Odds: San Antonio by 4.5.

Victor Wembanyama is averaging 21.9 points, 11.4 rebounds and 5.0 blocks per game in these playoffs. Nobody has ever done that over an entire postseason. It's not a must-win for Minnesota on Sunday ... but it feels like a must-win for Minnesota on Sunday.

— Game 4, Detroit at Cleveland, 8 p.m. EDT (NBC, Peacock)

Series: Detroit, 2-1.

Odds: Cleveland by 3.5.

Cleveland knows what's at stake in Game 4. The Cavaliers are 5-0 at home so far in these playoffs, and 0-5 on the road. Detroit put together yet another big run in Game 3 — this one being a 26-7 burst in the third quarter — to erase a 17-point deficit but couldn't find a way at the end.

— Game 4, Oklahoma City at LA Lakers, 10:30 p.m. EDT (Prime)

Series: Oklahoma City, 3-0.

Odds: Oklahoma City by 10.5.

The Lakers won the first half, again, in Game 3. The Thunder rolled through the second half, again, in Game 3. Such was the trend in Game 2 as well, and now the dreaded 0-3 deficit is staring LeBron James and the Lakers in the face. If OKC wins Monday, it'll get a week off before the Western Conference finals start.

— Cavaliers 116, Pistons 109 to cut series deficit to 2-1. Harden was the closer.

— Thunder 131, Lakers 108 for 3-0 series lead. Ajay Mitchell on a roll for OKC.

— Steve Kerr is coming back to the Warriors.

Cleveland's Donovan Mitchell had the fourth game of his career with at least 35 points and 10 rebounds in the Cavaliers' win over Detroit on Saturday.

All four of those games for Mitchell have come since he joined the Cavs, all of them were home games — and as might be expected, Cleveland is 4-0 in those contests.

A breakdown of this season's NBA awards:

— Twyman-Stokes Teammate of the Year: DeAndre Jordan, New Orleans.

— Hustle Award: Moussa Diabaté, Charlotte.

— Defensive Player of the Year: Victor Wembanyama, San Antonio.

— Clutch Player of the Year: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Oklahoma City.

— Sixth Man of the Year: Keldon Johnson, San Antonio.

— Sportsmanship Award: Derrick White, Boston.

— Most Improved Player: Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Atlanta.

— Rookie of the Year: Cooper Flagg, Dallas.

— Executive of the Year: Brad Stevens, Boston.

Among the announcements still to come:

— Most Valuable Player: Gilgeous-Alexander, Wembanyama or Denver's Nikola Jokic.

— Coach of the Year: Detroit's J.B. Bickerstaff, San Antonio's Mitch Johnson or Boston's Joe Mazzulla.

Defending champion Oklahoma City (-160) is favored to win the NBA title, according to oddsmakers.

The Thunder are followed by San Antonio (+300), New York (+700), Detroit (+1800), Cleveland (+6000), Minnesota (+8000), the Los Angeles Lakers (+40000) and Philadelphia (+40000).

— Sunday: NBA draft lottery.

— Monday through May 17: NBA draft combine.

— May 17 or 19: Eastern Conference finals begin on ESPN and ABC.

— May 18 or 20: Western Conference finals begin on NBC and Peacock.

— June 3: Game 1, NBA Finals on ABC. (Other finals dates: June 5, June 8, June 10, June 13, June 16 and June 19).

— June 23: Round 1, NBA draft.

— June 24: Round 2, NBA draft.

“They're pretty damn good from top to bottom, and they don't let their foot off the gas.” — Lakers star LeBron James, on the Thunder.

— The Thunder have won 76.2% of their regular season and playoff games over the last three seasons, the best three-year run in the NBA since Golden State won 79.5% of its games from 2015-16 through 2017-18.

— There have been four playoff triple-doubles in Pistons history — two by Isiah Thomas in 1989 and two by Cade Cunningham. He had one last season and had 27 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists against the Cavaliers on Saturday.
