The NVR-EL8M-8EP is an eight channel NVR with a built in POE switch. This POE switch allows you to simply connect IP cameras to the back of the NVR and they will receive power in this manner. This also creates a private network for the cameras to send the video back to the recorder while keeping that bandwidth separated from your main network.

All PoE ports built into this recorder support the new ePoE technology. Until recently, the longest distance you could transmit video and power was 328 feet. With ePoE, these signals can now be transmitted 2,624 feet as long as the cameras and PoE ports support this technology.

Smart H.265+ and H.265 are the latest in video compression technology and this recorder can implement them as long as the cameras supports this. The powerful processor in this NVR is potent enough to be able to run 12MP cameras smoothly. It also has a smart fan in it which adjusts its speed to cut down on noise and extend the life of the NVR.

You can also get full functionality out of fisheye cameras when using them with this NVR. Not only will this NVR allow you to dewarp the fisheye view (returning it to a more standard video ratio) but, there are separate modes that offer different ways to adjust each scene from the live footage and recorded playback.

This NVR has a lot of upgraded features with regards to AI. In order to properly utilize these features, you must pair this recorder with special AI cams. Heat mapping is now supported with the IPVD-EL12FW and cameras with people counting and with Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) will being coming soon as our AI camera lines expands.
