• 80-foot Smart IR™ night vision with 0.09 lux color sensitivity for low-light performance
• True WDR at 120dB for balanced imaging in high-contrast lighting conditions
• IK10 vandal-resistant dome housing with IP67 environmental protection
• PoE power with low consumption (5.5W max) for simplified installation
• Dual codec support: H.264, H.265, and MJPEG for flexible streaming
• Smart DNR™ 3D digital noise reduction for cleaner video in poor lighting
• Micro SD/SDHC/SDXC card slot (up to 1TB) for local recording and backup
• 16 programmable privacy masks for customizable coverage zones
• Auto day/night switching with manual, anti-flicker, and slow shutter modes

Technical Highlights

Low-Light Imaging: Operating down to 0.09 lux in color mode, the camera maintains visibility in near-darkness. Smart IR delivers 80 feet of infrared illumination with automatic gain control to prevent washout.

Advanced Video Processing: True WDR at 120dB compensates for extreme lighting variations, while Smart DNR™ reduces noise without sacrificing detail. Anti-flicker and slow shutter modes adapt to diverse outdoor conditions and fluorescent environments.

Network Integration: ONVIF-conformant architecture supports any standards-based CMS including DW Spectrum® IPVMS, Milestone Systems, and ExacqVision. Dual streaming with multi-bitrate control (32Kbps–20Mbps) optimizes bandwidth for varied network conditions.

Operational Flexibility: Motion detection with email, FTP, and SD card notifications keeps your team informed. Bonjour, DDNS, and Zeroconf support simplify network deployment without complex configuration.

Security & Compliance: 802.1x authentication, HTTPS/TLS encryption, MAC filtering, and multi-user access control protect against unauthorized viewing.

Applications

Ideal for retail storefronts, parking facilities, industrial sites, and building perimeters where vandal resistance and outdoor durability are critical. The narrow 30° vertical field of view suits focused entry/exit monitoring and restricted-area surveillance. Local SD recording provides failsafe backup for mission-critical locations.

The DWC-MPV72Wi6TW balances compact form factor with robust performance. Its IK10/IP67 ratings and aluminum die-cast housing withstand impact and weathering, while the 6.0mm lens provides the narrow coverage needed for targeted perimeter or entrance monitoring. The 120dB WDR and Smart IR combination ensures reliable identification in challenging outdoor lighting—critical for post-incident investigation.

Dual H.264/H.265 codec support maximizes storage efficiency without vendor lock-in. PoE power delivery at 5.5W maximum simplifies deployment in locations lacking dedicated power infrastructure. The micro SD slot and ONVIF compliance add resilience through local backup and multi-platform CMS compatibility, making this camera a practical choice for facilities requiring long-term outdoor surveillance without complexity.
