AXIS 128GB microSDXC Surveillance Card 10 Pack | 01678-001

Model: AXIS 128GB microSDXC Surveillance Card 10 Pack | 01678-001

Who This Is For

For installers and integrators deploying multiple AXIS cameras across a single site or across several projects, the AXIS 128GB microSDXC Surveillance Card 10 Pack is a practical bulk-buy solution designed to match the demands of continuous recording environments. Surveillance-grade microSD cards are engineered differently from consumer cards - they are built to handle the constant read/write cycles that edge storage and failover recording require. Buying in a 10-pack means consistent card specification across every camera on a job, fewer procurement steps between projects, and the confidence that every card carries AXIS compatibility. This pack suits system integrators fitting out medium to large AXIS camera deployments, IT teams standardising edge storage across a network of IP cameras, and security contractors who prefer to stock tested, brand-matched media rather than sourcing generic alternatives that may affect warranty or camera performance.

What This Product Actually Does

Who Buys This Model

• Security Integrators: Contractors fitting out sites with multiple AXIS cameras who want a single card specification stocked in bulk to cover full installations without sourcing piecemeal.
• IT and Facilities Managers: Teams managing AXIS camera networks across multiple buildings or campuses who standardise on AXIS-branded media to maintain consistent edge storage performance and simplify spares inventory.
• Remote Site Operators: Mining, agricultural, or infrastructure operators running AXIS cameras in locations where network connectivity is unreliable and local edge recording serves as the primary or backup recording method.
• Distributors and Resellers: Businesses that supply and install AXIS camera systems and want to bundle tested, compatible storage media as part of a complete camera package for their clients.

Honest Assessment

The AXIS 128GB microSDXC Surveillance Card 10 Pack does one thing well - it gives integrators a bulk supply of surveillance-rated, AXIS-compatible edge storage at a consistent specification. The surveillance-grade endurance rating means these cards are suited to the constant write cycles of IP camera recording in a way that general-purpose microSD cards are not. For multi-camera AXIS deployments, buying in a 10-pack is straightforward: one procurement line item, one specification, reliable compatibility. What this pack will not do is replace a centralised NVR or NAS for long-term, high-resolution archive storage - 128GB per camera is a useful buffer or failover layer, not a substitute for a properly sized recording system. This pack is also specific to AXIS cameras with a microSDXC slot; it is not a general-purpose storage solution for non-AXIS systems. Available through Security Australia, this pack suits contractors who want AXIS-matched media on hand for every job.

Before You Buy

Quick Fit Check

• Good match if: You are installing 5 or more AXIS cameras with microSDXC slots and want surveillance-rated, AXIS-compatible edge storage stocked in a single bulk-pack.
• Good match if: Your site uses AXIS cameras in a location with intermittent network connectivity and you need local card-based failover recording as a redundancy layer alongside your NVR.
• You may need a different model if: Your primary storage requirement is long-term centralised recording at high resolution across many channels - a dedicated NVR or NAS solution with multiple terabytes of HDD storage will be more appropriate than edge SD cards for that use case.

Real-World Scenarios

How It Compares

• Choose this if: You are deploying multiple AXIS cameras with microSDXC slots and want AXIS-validated surveillance-grade storage in a bulk-pack format at a consistent 128GB capacity per camera.
• You may need a different model if: Your site requires days or weeks of continuous high-resolution recording - a multi-bay NVR with large-capacity HDDs is the appropriate solution for long-term centralised storage at that scale.
• Pairs well with: AXIS network cameras with onboard microSDXC storage slots, used alongside a centralised NVR for primary recording with SD card configured as the failover or edge recording layer.

Common Questions

1. Will this card work in any AXIS camera with a microSD slot?

   It is compatible with AXIS cameras that support the microSDXC format, but you should verify your specific camera model's maximum supported card capacity before installing. Some older AXIS camera models have slot limitations and may not recognise cards above a certain capacity. Check your camera's product page or datasheet for the confirmed maximum card size.

2. Why buy a surveillance-rated card instead of a standard microSD card?

   Surveillance cards are built for continuous write workloads that would degrade a consumer card quickly. A standard microSD card is designed for intermittent use - photos, short video clips, file transfers. An IP camera recording continuously writes data to the card around the clock, which is a fundamentally different and more demanding workload. Surveillance-grade cards are engineered to handle that duty cycle reliably over extended periods.

3. Does this card replace the need for an NVR?

   No. The SD card is a local storage buffer, not a substitute for a centralised recording system. At 128GB per camera, the card is well suited to edge recording, failover when the NVR is unreachable, or short-term local buffering. For multi-channel, long-term, searchable recording across many cameras, an NVR with dedicated hard drives is the appropriate solution.

4. How many days of footage will 128GB store?

   It depends entirely on your camera settings. Resolution, frame rate, compression format (H.264 vs H.265), and whether you are recording continuously or only on motion events all affect how quickly the card fills. A single 4MP camera recording continuously in H.264 at standard quality will use storage very differently from the same camera recording in H.265 on motion triggers only. Use an online CCTV storage calculator with your specific camera's settings to get an accurate estimate.

5. Can I buy a single card rather than the full 10-pack?

   This listing is for the 10-pack format, which is the part number 01678-001. If you only need 1 or 2 cards, check the Security Australia product range for individual AXIS microSD card listings at lower quantities, as AXIS offers their surveillance cards in multiple pack sizes.

6. Does using an AXIS-branded card affect the camera's warranty?

   Using the manufacturer's own branded storage media is the safest approach for warranty purposes. Third-party or consumer-grade cards may not be covered under AXIS camera warranties if a storage-related fault arises. Using the AXIS 128GB microSDXC Surveillance Card ensures the storage component is matched to the camera manufacturer's own tested specification.
