Overview on Cisco Meraki MV Security Cameras

Cisco Meraki MV products are a line of indoor and outdoor networked cameras. They are easy to deploy, configure and use. This is because of their integration into the Meraki Dashboard, in addition to their use of cloud augmented edge storage. The MV products simplify use by elimination of unnecessary complex and expensive hardware that would be a requirement in traditional solutions. Therefore, these limitations, that are typical of conventional video surveillance deployments, are eliminated.

Some features and benefits of using Cisco Meraki MV security cameras are as follows:

1. Complete Inclusivity

Cisco Meraki MV products consist of both robust hardware as well as video storage options, which translates to freedom from NVR or additional analytics packages.

2. Safety & Security

The security cameras purchase publicly signed SSL certificates by default, in addition to default encryption of Meraki managed data.

3. Bandwidth Consciousness

The Meraki MV’s concept insists that the video storage is placed on the camera, and not the cloud, which ensures that critical network requirements receive appropriate bandwidth at any time. Therefore, the WAN bandwidth can be used as necessary - less than 50kbps of metadata per camera streams to the cloud when footage is not being viewed. This eliminates excessive WAN utilization.

4. Centralized Cloud Management

You can securely monitor your cameras from any location globally without any supplementary software requirements. This means that data can be streamed, either locally or remotely, with automatic network detection. Remote streaming video is proxied through the cloud, which allows it to be viewed at any location.

5. Wide Range of Features & Capabilities

The MV family products are equipped with high quality features, such as the capacity to adjust software and optical settings remotely, in addition to high-grade solid state storage integration. It also ensures high definition recording capacity and advanced processors on each camera. Cisco Meraki MV product line consists of a range of models best suited to a variety of deployments, depending on consumer-centric requirements.

6. Motion Heat Maps

Another interesting feature of the Meraki MV security camera range is the motion heat map capability. One can assess motion heat map data, which requires a small amount of metadata over bulky video files to provide powerful results.
