Digital Video Recorders (DVR) are analog while Network Video Recorders (NVR) are digital. For the most part, DVRs and NVRs provide you with the same functions, such as recording, motion detection, data storage, and remote connectivity. But there are fundamental differences, as well. For instance, the way that security cameras are connected and how the recorders receive incoming video. DVRs, for example, receive footage from analog security cameras over RG59 siamese BNC cables. The DVR then encodes the footage and stores it to the hard drive. NVRs, on the other hand, receive footage that is already encoded and compressed by Digital IP security cameras over Cat5e Ethernet cables.

The amount of cameras you can connect to your DVR or NVR depends on the number of available channels. A 16 channel DVR can connect up to 16 cameras, for example. DVR models typically come in 4, 8, and 16 channel models, while NVR's typically come in 8, 16, and 32 channel models.

Yes. All of our DVRs and NVRs come with both VGA and HDMI video outputs. This allows you to connect your system to your HD TV or virtually any other type of monitor. You can also use both of these outputs simultaneously to view your cameras on two different monitors or TVs. And if you connect your DVR/NVR through the Ethernet then you can view cameras from your phone anywhere in the world.
