Network Video Recorder (NVR)

A Network Video Recorder (NVR) includes a computer/server with video recording and management software.  Typically, an NVR is a complete system, that includes everything you need to record video from IP cameras on your network.

You can select an integrated NVR System (hardware & software bundle) or provide your own Windows computer and just buy software to create a Video Management Software System (VMS).

Some NVRs support both IP cameras and older “analog” cameras. (Hybrid solution)

Some NVRs provide enhanced functionality when used with cameras produced by the same manufacturer.  Many NVRs will support cameras made by other companies as long as they conform to the latest OnVIF standards.

NVRs come in many sizes and configurations.  They can support anywhere from 4 to 64 or even 128 IP-based cameras. Some NVRs have a maximum number of cameras that are supported, but require licensing for each camera installed.
