NVR Recorders

NVRs - Network Video Recorders

The Network Video Recorder, or (NVR) stores digital video signals retrieved from your network of CCTV security cameras utilizing a software program. It records video images in digital format to a disk drive, USB flash drive, or mass storage device. A network video recorder in itself contains no dedicated video capture hardware.

Network video recorder software is generally run on a dedicated device with an embedded operating system. They are usually deployed in an IP video surveillance system. Contrary to digital video, or DVR recorders, network video recorders derive their information from a network rather than through a direct connection to a video device. A network video recorder can be stored anywhere, unlike a DVR which must be hard wired into the CCTV network.
