NVR recorders are surveillance camera recorders for IP surveillance cameras that use a RJ45 port to transmit video, data, and power. The 8 channel NVRs below support recording of up to 8 network cameras simultaneously, with resolutions up to 5 megapixels.

What is the difference between 8 channel and 16 channel?

Each port corresponds to a channel. Thus, a 16-channel DVR can handle 16 security cameras, an 8-channel can handle 8 security cameras, and so on. The number of cameras cannot really be separated from the number of channels the device can handle.

Do I need a NVR for IP cameras?

If you’re familiar with a traditional analog CCTV set up, you know that your cameras need to be linked to a Digital Video Recorder (DVR) that records, processes, and stores all the data. IP cameras require a Network Video Recorder (NVR) that serves much the same purpose.
