Axis 2400 Video Server [FULL – 2024]

If you lose access, press and hold the Control button while reconnecting power. Keep it held until the Status indicator flashes amber.

For advanced users, you can use the Command Prompt to map the device's MAC address to a specific IP address using the arp -s command, followed by a ping to initiate the change.

As technology advanced, the Axis 2400 was eventually discontinued. Axis Communications ended hardware support and RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) service for the device on . This means Axis no longer provides official technical support, maintains its self-help resources, or processes hardware replacements. The company strongly advises owners of the 2400 to replace their product. As a legacy device, users may also encounter security vulnerabilities, such as CVE-2003-1386, which affected certain firmware versions. It should never be deployed on a modern, internet-facing network without being fully isolated.

Unlike single-channel units, the Axis 2400 can handle four simultaneous video streams, which it delivers at a frame rate of up to 30 frames per second (NTSC) or 25 fps (PAL).

The hardware architecture relies on proprietary Axis integrated circuits, specifically the ETRAX chip for network processing and the ARTPEC chip for dedicated video compression. This combination allows the device to process incoming analog signals and convert them into digital streams in real time. The server connects directly to an Ethernet network via a standard RJ-45 port, assigning an IP address to each connected camera feed. This effectively transforms independent analog cameras into addressable network devices. Key Technical Specifications Features an 8MB pre/post-alarm buffer to store video

Connects up to four traditional analog security cameras simultaneously.

If the IP address is unknown, use the Axis IP Utility tool or inspect local DHCP leases. Legacy units default to static IPs if a DHCP server is not found during boot.
