Prime 16 Channel 2MP Pentabrid CVI/TVI/CCTV/AHD/IP 1U

Our latest Prime DVR is a step up from our Tribrids and now includes the ability to record using HD-CVI and AHD in addition to HD-TVI, Analog and IP. That means that you can use five different cameras with this Pentabrid recorder and on top of that, this DVR allows you to add 2 IP Network cameras up to 4MP each and that now you have an 18 channel recorder! You can record 2 IP cameras making this capable of 18 channels! If you’re going to utilize the 2 IP cameras, you’ll need to make sure that you have some CAT5/6 network cable available but if not . . . all you’ll need is coaxial cable and a standard 12V DC power source since all of the other technologies use that for data and power. When using HD-TVI, you can use 3MP, 2MP and 1MP cameras and if you choose HD-CVI and AHD, you can use 2MP and 1MP cameras. Let’s not forget analog since you can still use them if you have them and you can replace them as you need to.

You’ll have space for two hard drives up to 6TB each giving you 12TB of storage space to work with. You can manage your settings and adjust things like motion detection, frames per second, compression encoding, and even the use of 1080p lite to make your storage more efficient. Using the latest H.265 and H.265+ encoding, you’ll be able to store more data on your drives, thereby reducing your storage costs. There are always plenty of options available that will make your security system more customized to what you need. There’s audio in and out that gives you the ability to see and hear what’s going on and to even communicate with someone remotely. You can even pick your option for video output and use a VGA monitor or even HDMI up to 4K.

This DVR supports various VCA (Video Content Analytics) that include 2 channel line crossing detection, intrusion detection, and 1 channel of sudden scene change detection as a part of the smart function. There are also other smart features like VQD or Video Quality Diagnostics that monitors your video for quality issues like blurred images, excessive brightness, and color cast which can be common with fluorescent lights. These instances can trigger an alarm that will send an email or activate another type of response that is configured. One of the most important features is the ability to monitor your cameras remotely. With our free software, you’ll be able to control and view your network connected DVR from anywhere in the world that you have an internet connection.

Our Prime products all include a 3 year warranty, FREE US based tech support and FREE remote monitoring apps.
