> overview

The Illumivue 16-Channel Standard DVR is a scalable, high-performance recording solution designed for professional surveillance deployments. Built to support multi-camera systems, this DVR delivers reliable video management, efficient storage handling, and flexible integration for a wide range of commercial and residential applications. Supporting up to 16 channels, this DVR enables centralized monitoring and recording across multiple cameras, making it ideal for expanding systems or multi-zone installations. Advanced video compression technologies, including H.264 and H.265, optimize bandwidth usage and reduce storage requirements without compromising video quality. With 4K output capability, users can view high-resolution footage with enhanced clarity for improved identification and analysis. Dual SATA interfaces support up to 16TB per bay, allowing for large-scale storage capacity and extended recording retention. Alarm I/O integration enables connection with external devices for event-based recording and system automation. Simultaneous HDMI (4K) and VGA outputs provide flexible display options for control rooms or multi-monitor setups. Designed for easy installation, the included rack ears support standard rack mounting, making this DVR suitable for structured deployments. As a non-PoE unit, it allows integrators to pair with dedicated PoE switches for greater flexibility in system design and power management.
