FAQ

What is the maximum storage capacity of this NVR, and does it support RAID data protection?

The NVR features 8 SATA interfaces that each support up to 20 TB hard drives, allowing a maximum raw storage capacity of 160 TB. It provides enterprise hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10 configurations and supports hard drive hot-swapping without powering down the unit. Hard drives are sold separately.

What is the difference between AI by Recorder and AI by Camera on this model?

AI by Recorder utilizes the NVR’s internal processor to run advanced analytics (such as 32-ch perimeter protection, 32-ch SMD Plus, 8-ch AcuPick, and face recognition) on standard IP video streams. AI by Camera offloads analytics to supported smart IP cameras, enabling all 32 channels to perform concurrent AI functions at maximum decoding throughput.

Can this NVR output video to multiple 4K and 8K monitors independently?

Yes. The unit includes 4 HDMI and 2 VGA video outputs. In heterogeneous display mode, HDMI1, HDMI2, and HDMI3 can output independent 4K video streams (with HDMI3 supporting up to 8K in simultaneous mode), allowing customized multi-screen monitoring across control room displays.

Are third-party ONVIF cameras compatible with this recorder?

Yes. In addition to native protocol integration, the NVR conforms to ONVIF (Profile S, Profile T, Profile G), CGI, and SDK standards
