The iDVR-PRO4M is an SD / HD hybrid DVR that works with analog CCTV, AHD, and HD-TVI cameras. This means that traditional analog CCTV cameras and the latest high definition security cameras can be used. All video surveillance resolutions up to full 1080p are supported.
Here is how it works.
- Originally, CCTV cameras supported CIF (352 x 240 pixels) and D1 resolution (704 x 480 pixels).
- Then, 960H resolutions introduced to move towards the widescreen format of the latest monitors and TVs (16:9 aspect ratio). 960H is 960 x 480 pixel resolution.
- In 2014, AHD cameras (analog high definition), also known as analog HD / HD CCTV, were introduced which supported HD 720p (1280 x 720) resolution.
- In 2015, full HD 1080p resolution AHD cameras were introduced (1920 x 1080).
- HD-TVI is another high definition CCTV technology that was introduced and evolved around the same time as AHD.
- HD-TVI cameras are also available in 720p and 1080p resolutions.
- All of these video formats (analog CCTV, AHD, TVI) work using the same RG59 coax cable to run video from the camera to the DVR. However, the video encoding is different between them.
- Hybrid iDVR-PRO model DVRs works with all of these camera types. Users can also mix standard definition CCTV and high definition (AHD and TVI) on the same recorder (hybrid).
- Each channel can be configured for a different camera type.
