When it comes to securing your home or business, you shouldn't have to choose between professional-grade features and your budget. The new Montavue Nexus turrets, available in 8MP and 12MP, deliver exceptional clarity, smart AI detection, and proactive security features that stop threats before they escalate.
Designed to pair with our Montavue Nexus NVRs, both models feature Active Deterrence capabilities, utilizing customizable lights and built-in sirens to dissuade unwanted visitors the moment they step onto your property.
The Montavue MHT-8-101: 4K Clarity Meets Smart Security
The MHT-8-101 proves that high-end 4K security doesn't have to break the bank. It is an ideal solution for homeowners looking for crystal-clear footage and reliable AI detection.
-
Crisp 8MP Resolution: Shoots sharp 4K video at 18 frames per second (FPS), ensuring you capture critical details like faces and license plates.
-
Smart Full-Color Night Vision: Features 100 feet of standard infrared (IR) night vision for discreet monitoring. When an intruder is detected, the camera automatically activates warm visible lights, instantly switching to full-color night vision when it matters most.
-
Active Deterrence & Two-Way Audio: Built-in speakers function as a loud siren to scare off trespassers, or as a two-way communication system so you can speak directly to whoever is on your property.
-
AI Smart Motion Detection: Reduces false alerts by accurately distinguishing between humans, vehicles, and irrelevant movement like swaying trees or passing animals.
-
PoE Powered: A single Ethernet cable handles both power and data, ensuring a stable, high-bandwidth connection without the lag and dropouts of wireless systems.
The Montavue MHT-12-101: Ultra-High Resolution with Proactive Defense
For those who need maximum detail and advanced perimeter controls, the MHT-12-101 steps up the game. It captures a massive 12-megapixel image, providing significantly more detail than standard 4K cameras.
-
12MP at 20 FPS: Superior image clarity and fluid video playback, giving you the best possible evidence for investigations.
-
Customizable RGB Active Deterrence: Features 82 feet of IR night vision alongside motion-activated LED lights. You can customize the RGB light colors to create a powerful visual warning and trigger full-color night vision.
-
Advanced AI & Perimeter Protection: Goes beyond standard motion detection by allowing you to draw digital tripwires and virtual boundaries. If a human or vehicle crosses your defined perimeter, the camera instantly triggers an alert and activates the deterrence features.
-
PoE Powered: Like its 8MP variant, it relies on a hardwired PoE connection for unmatched 24/7 reliability.

Two-Way Audio: Hear what is happening and speak through the camera in real-time.
