Cisco Meraki MV12W-HW 256GB Wide Angle Mini Dome Camera

The Cisco Meraki MV12W-HW is an indoor mini dome smart camera with a wide field of view and 256GB of storage. A 1/3-inch 4MP CMOS sensor sits behind a 2.8mm f/1.8 lens with a 114-degree horizontal view, and the camera records 1080p video in H.264 at up to 20 frames per second. Built-in infrared reaches 15 meters (49 feet), and a microphone records audio.

Video is stored on the camera itself, on 256GB of high-endurance solid-state storage, which Meraki rates at up to 40 days of continuous recording depending on settings. There is no separate recorder to buy, and footage is viewed and searched through the Meraki Dashboard.

The wide lens covers a whole room, lobby, or classroom from a corner. It connects through one Gigabit RJ-45 port and runs on 802.3af PoE at up to 12.95W. The dome is 4.2 inches across and 2.9 inches high, weighs 0.6 lb, and comes with a wall mounting kit. The camera is sold unclaimed; a Meraki MV license is required, purchased separately.

For the 128GB version, see the MV12WE-HW. For hallways and doors, the MV12N-HW narrow-angle camera fits better. The MA-MNT-CLG-1 T-rail kit hangs it from a drop ceiling.

This seller refurbished Cisco Meraki MV12W-HW camera is tested, working, and covered by the NetworkTigers one-year warranty.
