HDMI up to 3840 × 2160 and VGA up to 1920 × 1080, two of each. Alarm terminals take 16 inputs and 6 outputs. RS-232, RS-485, one RCA audio input and two RCA outputs.

How it goes in

From the rack to the first camera.

Rack the 1.5U

440 mm wide and 415 mm deep. 100–240 VAC. Connect one or both Gigabit ports to your network switch.

Fit the drives

Up to four SATA drives of up to 16TB each, 64TB in total. eSATA on the back for backup.

Power the cameras elsewhere

Use a PoE switch, not this chassis. Stay inside 384 Mbps, or 200 Mbps with AI on.

Turn on the AI you will use

Face detection and recognition run on 2 channels of the NVR, IVS on 4 and SMD on 8. Cameras can run their own AI on more.

Common questions

Does this NVR power the cameras?

No. It has two Gigabit LAN ports and no PoE. The cameras need a separate PoE switch.

Are the hard drives included?

No. Four empty SATA bays take up to 16TB each, 64TB in total, plus eSATA on the rear.

What resolution can it record?

Up to 32MP (6528 × 4896) per camera, within 384 Mbps in total.

What changes when AI is switched on?

Bandwidth drops from 384 Mbps to 200 Mbps, and decoding drops from 32 channels at 1080p to 24.

What AI does the recorder run itself?

Face detection and recognition on 2 channels, AI tripwire and intrusion (IVS) on 4 channels with 10 rules each, and AI motion detection (SMD) on 8 channels.

Can it recognise faces from more channels?

Yes, 16 channels when face capture cameras detect the face and the NVR does the recognition. The library holds 20 databases and 20,000 images.

Does it support number plate recognition?

Yes, on the cameras. The spec table lists 8 channels and the feature list says 4, so confirm with us if you need more than 4. It stores up to 20,000 plates.

How many screens can I connect?

Two HDMI and two VGA. Live view is up to 36-way on the main screen and 16-way on the second. Playback is up to 16 channels.

What size is the chassis?

440 × 415 × 70 mm, 1.5U, 4.74 kg without drives. The 64-channel model is 2U and 458 mm deep.

Will it work with other camera brands?

Yes, ONVIF cameras (Profile T, S and G). AI features depend on the camera; VIP Vision Professional AI cameras support them all.

What is the warranty in Australia?

4 years from VIP Vision, supported by InFront Technologies. The datasheet is on the Attachments tab.

Who can install the camera cabling?

Concealed cabling between the cameras and the PoE switch is customer cabling under AS/CA S009 and needs an ACMA-registered cabler. Plugging this recorder into an existing outlet is normal use.

Supported by InFront Technologies.

Installation and safety

Mains recorder. 100–240 VAC into an existing outlet is normal use. A new circuit or any switchboard work needs a licensed electrician. Power off before fitting or removing a drive.

Camera cabling. Concealed cabling between the cameras and the PoE switch is customer cabling under AS/CA S009 and needs an ACMA-registered cabler. This recorder does not supply PoE.

Privacy and audio. Recording people and conversations is covered by state and territory surveillance laws. Point cameras at your own property and check the rules before you record audio.

What it does not do. No PoE, no analogue (coax) inputs and no RAID; each drive records on its own.
