Full bandwidth for eight cameras.
With 128 Mbps coming in, eight high-resolution cameras can record at full quality, and the recorder powers each one on its own cable. Licence plate recognition is available with supported cameras.

The connections
Eight PoE+ ports on the back.
Eight PoE+ camera ports, one gigabit network port for your router, HDMI and VGA outputs, USB and the 48 V power input. IVSEC's photo also shows a sensor terminal block and a single audio out socket, which differ from the datasheet: confirm with us if you need them.

Power over Ethernet
One cable per camera.
Each camera runs on one network cable for power and video, up to 100 m. IVSEC X range cameras are found and added by themselves.
How it goes in
From the box to the app.
01
Place the recorder
Fit a 3.5" SATA surveillance drive inside (not included), then put the recorder near your router and a TV or monitor.
02
Plug in the cameras
Run one network cable from each camera to a PoE port on the back (eight PoE+ ports). The recorder powers the camera on the same cable, up to 100 m per run.
03
Run the wizard
Connect a TV or monitor with HDMI or VGA, plug in the mouse and power. Set the password, date and time; IVSEC X cameras appear by themselves.
04
Connect the app
Plug the recorder's network port into your router, scan its QR code with the free IVSEC mobile app, then set up your detection alerts.

Common questions
Does it come with a hard drive?
No. Fit one 3.5" SATA surveillance drive of up to 16TB. Call us on 1300 736 970 if you would like help choosing the size.
How many cameras can it record?
Eight IP cameras, each plugged into one of the eight built-in PoE+ ports.
Do I need a PoE switch?
No. The eight PoE+ ports power the cameras over the same network cable that carries the video.
What resolution cameras does it support?
Cameras up to 12MP, with 128 Mbps of incoming bandwidth across the eight channels.
Does it read number plates?
Yes, with cameras that support it. IVSEC lists licence plate detection and licence plate recognition among its smart features.
Does it work with other camera brands?
Yes, ONVIF Profile S, G and T cameras (firmware 21.12 or later). IVSEC X range cameras are plug and play; smart features depend on the camera.
Can I view the cameras on my phone?
Yes, with the free IVSEC X app. Scan the QR code on the recorder to connect. A PC client and web browser access are also available.
How many cameras can I see on the TV at once?
One, four, six, eight or nine, on HDMI up to 4K or on VGA.
Does it record sound?
Yes, from cameras with a microphone. The datasheet lists two-way audio with audio in and out; IVSEC's rear photo shows an audio out socket only, so confirm with us if you need a microphone input on the recorder itself.
How do I find footage quickly?
Search by time, by event with smart detection filters, by snapshot, by tags, or with the slice view of thumbnails for each hour.
What comes in the box?
The recorder, a 48 V power supply, a USB mouse, hard drive screws and a printed quick installation guide. No hard drive.
What warranty does it have?
Two years on parts from IVSEC. InFront Technologies handles warranty and technical support in Australia on 1300 736 970.

Installation and safety
Power. The recorder runs from its 48 V plug-in power supply. There is no mains wiring in the recorder; a new power point needs a licensed electrician.
Cabling. Network cable run inside walls or ceilings is customer cabling under AS/CA S009 and needs an ACMA-registered cabler.
Privacy and audio. Recording people and conversations is covered by state and territory surveillance laws. Point cameras at your own property, put up signage, and check the rules before you record audio.
What it does not do. It has no analogue (coax) inputs, one drive bay and no RAID. No hard drive is included.
Figures. From the IVSEC NR308XD and NR316XD datasheets (updated 4 November 2026). The NR308XD datasheet gives the operating range as 0 °C to 40 °C, with 41 °F (5 °C) in its Fahrenheit figure. It lists 2 × USB 2.0 and audio in and out, while IVSEC's rear photo shows a USB 3.0 port, one audio out socket and a sensor terminal block.
