Network Video Recorders (NVR)

Network Video Recorders are used with IP cameras. NVR’s allow users to view IP cameras through a central platform along with the ability to view recorded footage. Some Network Video Recorders also have an integrated POE switch which allows a direct connection from each camera into the NVR for both power and video.

At Surveillance Technology, our NVR’s also have the ability to flatten a 360 degree IP camera into many images that can be viewed simultaneously with multiple options. Our Network Video Recorders also interface with IP cameras that utilize advanced analytics, in order to receive different types of alerts or detailed information about a particular area, such as number of people or vehicles that have passed through a specific area.

However, all NVR’s are not created equally and the differences will affect not only your investment, but it’s performance. When looking for a modem NVR, make sure that it utilizes H.265 compression, works with up to 4K resolutions, lists how many hard drives it can hold for video storage and, most importantly, clarifies bandwidth or throughput capabilities.

Network video recorders come in: 8, 16, 32 and 64 channels, but as a general rule we at Surveillance Technology do not recommend more than 16 channels per NVR. We believe that having 32 or even 64 IP cameras on one device offers a potential point of failure that is too great for peace of mind.

    Recognized as a Historic Landmark Resort in the St Petersburg downtown area, we were looking for the best in the surveillance camera and equipment system business. We talked with Luis from Surveillance Technology Inc, and seemed like the right choice for us. He was very professional, honest, promised us prompt response and even took the time to walk the entire property. I am so happy that we choose his company for our surveillance needs and professional advice. Luis has been with us since 2021 and has made several installations. The results have all been outstanding clear picture, easy viewing and storing.I would like to especially point out an installation done this week at our Marina. His wonderful techs led by Jaime, performed a cable installation where a "dinghy" had to be used. Fighting hightide and waves they managed to install approximately 1 mile of cable and deliver the best video viewing on all cameras. I will recommend Luis and his company to anyone looking for surveillance equipment hands down.

    Although very busy, this company sent out their technicians within a reasonable amount of time.. The technicians Jamie and Josh were very professional and friendly. Jaimie identified and rectified my problem I had with on line visualization of the camera views and playback. He also assisted with making sure our phones were able to bring up the same views. One hour later....done. PLUS I received a call the next morning to answer any questions I may have had. Thank you!!! BTW,, Louis is the person that answers the phone and is extremely helpful and phone friendly with curteous professional communication. KUDOS
