Technical Specifications

Sensor and Optics: The 5MP 1/2.8" CMOS sensor captures images at 2592 × 1944 pixels. Three fixed lens options provide flexibility: 2.8mm (102.4° HFOV), 4.0mm (51.9° HFOV), or 6.0mm (82.3° HFOV) focal lengths, accommodating various deployment scenarios from wide-area coverage to focused monitoring.

Low-Light Performance: Exceptional night vision is achieved through Smart IR™ with an 80-foot illumination range and variable shutter speeds (8 to 1/50000). Minimum scene illumination reaches 0.0 lux in black and white and 0.13 lux in color, ensuring visibility in virtually any lighting condition. Smart DNR™ 3D noise reduction and adjustable slow shutter modes further enhance low-light clarity.

Video Compression and Streaming: Multi-format support includes H.264, H.265, and MJPEG compression with dual-stream capability at different rates and resolutions. Bitrate control ranges from 32Kbps to 20Mbps, enabling bandwidth optimization. The camera streams up to 30fps at all resolutions.

Network and Integration: IPv4 connectivity supports industry-standard protocols including RTSP, HTTP/HTTPS, DHCP, DNS, NTP, and SNMP. Compatible with DW Spectrum® IPVMS, ExacqVision, and Milestone Systems VMS platforms. Security features include 802.1x, TLS encryption, MAC filtering, and multi-user authority.

Durability and Installation: Aluminum die-cast construction with IK10 vandal rating and IP67 weatherproof sealing withstands harsh outdoor environments from -20°C to 50°C (-4°F to 122°F). Low power consumption (6.0W DC12V, 7.2W PoE) and flexible PoE support simplify deployment. Optional mounting accessories are available separately.

Applications

• Parking lot and perimeter surveillance
• Industrial facility monitoring
• Building entrance and exit protection
• Transportation hubs and access control
• Retail and commercial property security

Perspective based on aggregated IP Security Depot and affiliated engineering team experience.

The DWC-MPV75Wi28TW stands out as a versatile mid-range outdoor dome built for integration-focused deployments. The combination of 5MP resolution, robust 120dB WDR, and advanced Smart IR™ addresses the most common outdoor surveillance challenges—backlighting, low-light gaps, and detail preservation. The availability of three fixed focal lengths accommodates both wide-area and targeted monitoring without requiring expensive PTZ mechanisms.

IVA analytics support is comprehensive, covering intrusion, line crossing, loitering, and tamper detection natively, with optional IVA+ licensing for advanced logical rules and object tracking. Dual-streaming with H.265 codec support ensures efficient bandwidth utilization in bandwidth-constrained environments. The 5-year warranty and compact 0.70 lb design further enhance value for facility managers balancing performance with installation simplicity. Best suited for outdoor applications where mid-range resolution, durability, and proven ecosystem integration are priorities.
