Drinfeld center of a Deligne tensor product

Let $\mathcal{C}$ and $\mathcal{D}$ be two tensor categories (if necessary, assume they are fusion categories). Is the canonical braided monoidal functor $$\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{C})\boxtimes\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{D})\rightarrow\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{C}\boxtimes\mathcal{D})$$ an equivalence?

NB: The two monoidal categories $\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{C})\boxtimes\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{D})$ and $\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{C}\boxtimes\mathcal{D})$ have the same Frobenius-Perron dimension so it would be enough to show that the above functor is either injective or surjective in the sense of EGNO.
