AXIS Edge: compact OT edge hardware.

Compact operating-room hardware for supported CSM OR Console application functions.

AXIS Edge is a compact operating-room hardware platform for hosting supported CSM OR Console application functions near the surgical video source. It is designed for secure local capture, recording, controlled transfer and live connectivity in configurations that do not require a full interactive OR Console workstation.

Availability:Request Demo
Type:OT hardware
For:Hospitals & medical colleges

Overview

Problems it addresses

  • Not every room needs a full workstation. Some operating rooms need recording and live connectivity without an interactive console.
  • Space is limited. Large carts compete for floor space next to existing equipment.
  • Scaling room by room is slow. Standardized compact hardware makes multi-OT rollout simpler to plan.

Who it is for

  • Hospitals scaling AXIS CSM across many operating rooms
  • Biomedical engineering and IT teams
  • Rooms with limited floor space

AXIS Edge capabilities
CapabilityDescription
CSM OR Console application hostRuns supported CSM OR Console application functions close to the video source.
Compact/headless deploymentDesigned for installations that do not need a full interactive workstation in the room.
Compatible video captureCaptures from compatible surgical video sources. Source count, resolution and I/O depend on configuration.
Local recording and transferRecords locally and transfers under configured policy.
CSM Command Center connectivityManaged and configured centrally from the CSM Command Center.

How AXIS Edge works

  1. Connect: AXIS Edge connects to compatible video sources in the operating room.
  2. Run: Supported CSM OR Console application functions run on the device.
  3. Manage: Configuration and sessions are managed from the CSM Command Center.
  4. Share: Recordings and live sessions reach authorized users through AXIS CSM.

Applications

  • Multi-OT scaling: Extend AXIS CSM to more rooms with a smaller footprint.
  • Existing equipment integration: Connect compatible equipment already in the room.
  • Local recording: Record procedures locally with controlled transfer.

Integration with the AXIS ecosystem

AXIS Edge is part of an AXIS CSM deployment. Choose AxisEdge+ instead where GPU-accelerated local video or AI workloads are needed.
