Dahua Network Video Recorders — 8CH to 64CH PoE Systems

Dahua Network Video Recorder (NVR) is the brain of your IP surveillance system — it receives video streams from your PoE cameras, records them 24/7 to internal hard drives, and provides the interface for live viewing, playback, and AI-powered search. Choose from 8-channel, 16-channel, 32-channel and 64-channel Dahua NVRs to match the scale of your deployment.
Not set on the Dahua brand itself? Our Valucam NVRs work natively with Dahua cameras and support the same AI features, giving you a like-for-like alternative when a bid calls for it.

Why choose a Dahua NVR over a generic recorder?

• Native Dahua camera integration — plug-and-play recognition of Dahua IP cameras with automatic configuration, no manual IP addressing or ONVIF setup required (though ONVIF is fully supported for third-party cameras)
• H.265+ smart codec support — Dahua's compression extends hard drive life by up to 70% compared to standard H.264, meaning you store more days of footage on the same disk capacity
• Built-in PoE ports — most Dahua NVR models include integrated Power-over-Ethernet ports, so cameras connect directly to the recorder with a single cable each; no separate PoE switch needed
• AI search — WizSense-enabled NVRs let you search recorded footage by "human" or "vehicle" instead of scrubbing through hours of video; find the critical clip in seconds
• Remote access — the DMSS mobile app and SmartPSS desktop client provide live view and playback from anywhere with an internet connection, at no monthly fee
