Installation Tip
Before replacing an existing DVR, confirm the current camera signal format, camera resolution, camera FPS, coax cable condition, power supply voltage, audio wiring, monitor output, HDD storage requirement, and remote viewing network setup. For mixed analog and IP systems, also confirm IP camera bandwidth, ONVIF compatibility, and network design.
Note: Specifications are subject to change without notice. Channel capacity, camera signal compatibility, analog resolution support, analog FPS support, live display behavior, IP camera compatibility, recording resolution, HDD support, storage performance, audio-over-coax behavior, video output behavior, remote viewing performance, coax transmission distance, decoding performance, smart detection features, and overall system performance may vary depending on firmware version, camera model, coax cable quality, power supply, hard drive model, network setup, bitrate settings, recording schedule, system configuration, and installation environment. Please always double-check the manufacturer’s official specifications for the most accurate and up-to-date product information before ordering.
