What is a Security DVR?
A Security DVR (Digital Video Recorder) is a device that records and stores video footage from security cameras, allowing users to monitor and review the footage for security purposes. It is a crucial component of a security camera system, enabling users to record and store video footage from multiple cameras to a hard drive in the DVR. This provides a reliable and efficient way to monitor and secure their property. With a Security DVR, you can ensure that all activities within the surveillance area are captured and stored for future reference, enhancing the overall security of your premises.
Definition and Explanation
Analog DVRs
Analog DVRs are traditional DVRs that support older analog security cameras using composite video (CVBS) These DVRs were widely used in security camera systems 15 years ago, before the advent of higher definition coax security camera formats like HD-TVI, AHD, and HD-CVI
. Analog DVRs were much more reliability and easy of use compared to the VHS video tape recorders that they replaced. This made them a popular choice and a more efficient security solution. However, analog CCTV DVRs do not offer the same level of resolution and advanced features as newer hybrid DVRs and IP DVRs, which can be a consideration for those looking for higher-quality video footage.
Hybrid DVRs
Hybrid DVRs offer a flexible solution for users who want to upgrade their existing analog camera system to higher resolution coaxial cable / BNC cameras. In addition to the new higher resolution BNC camera formats (HD-CVI, HD-TVI, and AHD)
, some hybrid DVRs such as the Viewtron DVRs on this page also support network IP cameras. Viewtron hybrid DVRs allow you to record video footage from all three types of cameras simultaneously (legacy analog CCTV, HD BNC cameras, and IP cameras). This makes Hybrid DVRs a cost-effective option for those looking to transition from analog CCTV to HD BNC cameras without replacing the existing coaxial cable that they have in place. Users can also transition to IP cameras.
IP DVRs (IP Camera NVRs)
IP DVRs, also known as Network Video Recorders (NVRs), support IP cameras and record video footage over a network.
IP camera NVRs also typically have built-in PoE ports which simplifies installation. Viewtron IP camera NVRs are integrated with the AI software built into these Viewtron AI cameras. This allows users to use features such as human detection, vehicle detection, facial recognition, and automatic license plate recognition. IP DVRs are widely used in modern security camera systems due to their scalability, flexibility, and ease of use. They are ideal for users who require high-quality video footage and advanced features such as AI detection.
