Meraki Indoor fixed lens mini dome camera w/512GB storage

Product Overview

The Cisco Meraki MV13-HW is a next-generation indoor smart camera that delivers powerful security, intuitive management, and advanced analytics all in a compact mini-dome form factor. The MV13 is ideal for offices, schools, retail stores, and other indoor environments.

With a fixed lens and a robust 512 GB of onboard storage, the MV13-HW offers full HD resolution at up to 30 FPS. It is built on the same smart architecture as other MV smart cameras, eliminating the need for NVRs, DVRs, or complex on-prem software.

Thanks to Meraki’s cloud-first approach, the MV13 camera is managed entirely through the Meraki dashboard. This simplifies deployment, maintenance, and configuration — making it easy for IT teams to monitor multiple sites from a single pane of glass.

The MV13 also includes intelligent features such as machine learning-based object detection, motion-based retention, and customizable video quality settings. This makes it not just a surveillance tool, but a data-rich security asset that improves operational insight and response.

MV13-HW Benefits to Your Business

The MV13-HW enhances physical security while reducing IT complexity. It supports enterprise-grade video quality without the cost and maintenance of traditional recording infrastructure. The camera’s 512GB of solid-state storage ensures high-resolution video is captured and retained locally, even during network outages, with seamless syncing once connectivity is restored.

Organizations benefit from Meraki’s zero-touch provisioning and remote management. IT teams can deploy and monitor cameras across sites with no local configuration. All firmware updates, security patches, and feature improvements are delivered automatically through the cloud, reducing administrative overhead and improving compliance posture.

Additionally, the MV13 supports intelligent video retention, allowing motion events to be prioritized and archived while conserving storage space. With built-in analytics such as motion heatmaps and object detection, businesses gain insights that go beyond security — including customer traffic patterns, occupancy trends, and behavioral data.

Integration with Other Meraki Products

The MV13-HW integrates seamlessly into the broader Cisco Meraki ecosystem. It works natively with Meraki MR access points, MS switches, and MX security appliances, enabling unified policy enforcement, role-based access control, and streamlined network segmentation.

Using the Meraki dashboard, administrators can correlate camera events with network activity, such as user logins, device MAC addresses, or access point associations. This deep integration improves incident response and troubleshooting, especially in distributed environments.

Additionally, Meraki’s APIs allow the MV13 to interface with third-party platforms, including VMS systems and alerting tools. Whether you’re managing a single site or a nationwide fleet of cameras, the MV13 scales efficiently within the Meraki cloud platform.

Licensing

To operate the MV13-HW, an active Cisco Meraki MV license is required. The license provides access to the Meraki dashboard, cloud archiving (optional), firmware updates, and advanced analytics. Licenses are available in 1, 3, 5, 7, or 10-year terms.
