Overview
The Meraki MV73, part of the third generation of MV smart cameras, combines physical security and advanced analytics in a powerful varifocal lens dome form factor. With an edge architecture that minimizes physical infrastructure and software requirements, MV73 enables faster, easier deployments and greater scalability.
Security in high definition
The ultra-high-performance MV73 series camera supports up to 4K resolution for high-definition video, delivering the level of detail needed to stay on top of what matters. With IK10+ and IP67 ratings, plus IR illumination, the MV73 extends visibility and safety to outdoor and demanding environments.
Compact and easy to install, MV73 series cameras are compatible with a variety of mounting accessories, delivering the right viewing angle wherever they are placed. MV73 series cameras are ideal for monitoring entrances and exits, as well as the general perimeter, from walls, ceilings, or even corner-mount locations.
Using machine-learning-based computer vision, MV73 cameras can perform real-time object detection, classification, and tracking of people and vehicles to increase safety and provide useful insights into activity. These smart cameras deliver powerful business intelligence without compromising physical security.
