Werkt deze NVR met mijn bestaande IP-camera’s?

De 4 kanaals NVR recorder – PoE / UTP SMART is geoptimaliseerd voor Sitcon IP-camera’s, maar dankzij ONVIF-ondersteuning werkt hij in veel gevallen ook met andere merken IP-camera’s. Zolang de camera’s ONVIF ondersteunen en binnen de maximale resolutie van 5MP blijven, is de kans groot dat ze probleemloos kunnen worden gekoppeld.

Is deze NVR geschikt voor 5MP camera’s?

Ja, de 4 kanaals NVR recorder – PoE / UTP SMART ondersteunt IP-camera’s tot 5MP resolutie. In de praktijk wordt hij vaak gebruikt met Full HD en 4MP camera’s, maar ook 5MP camera’s kunnen worden aangesloten zolang de totale bandbreedte binnen de specificaties blijft.

Moet ik een aparte voeding gebruiken voor de camera’s?

Nee, de recorder heeft ingebouwde PoE-poorten. De camera’s krijgen via dezelfde netwerkkabel zowel stroom als netwerk. Alleen wanneer een camera buiten de PoE-aansluitingen of via een ander netwerksegment wordt gebruikt, kan een losse voeding of PoE-injector nodig zijn.

Kan ik de recorder gebruiken zonder internetverbinding?

Ja, de 4 kanaals NVR recorder – PoE / UTP SMART kan volledig stand-alone werken. U kunt lokaal opnemen en via een aangesloten monitor livebeelden en opnames bekijken. Een internetverbinding is alleen nodig als u de NVR op afstand via een app of PC wilt benaderen.

Ontvang ik meldingen op mijn smartphone bij beweging?

Via de gratis app kunt u pushmeldingen inschakelen. Bij bewegingsdetectie ontvangt u een melding en kunt u direct de bijbehorende beelden bekijken. De gevoeligheid en opname-instellingen zijn per kanaal aan te passen.

Wordt de 1 TB harde schijf al ingebouwd geleverd?

Ja, de recorder wordt geleverd met een voorgemonteerde en geteste 1 TB harde schijf. U hoeft zelf geen schijf te plaatsen en kunt de NVR direct gebruiken nadat de camera’s zijn aangesloten.

Kan ik de beelden ook op een TV bekijken?

Ja, via de HDMI-uitgang kan de NVR direct op een TV of monitor worden aangesloten. Er is daarnaast een VGA-uitgang voor oudere beeldschermen. Via het menu kan de gewenste weergave van de camera’s worden gekozen.

Limited to a maximum of 4 IP cameras

The 4-channel NVR recorder – PoE/UTP SMART is a user-friendly IP recorder for those who want to record their network cameras easily and reliably. Thanks to the built-in PoE ports, you can connect IP cameras directly with a single network cable for both power and data. This SMART NVR supports resolutions up to 5MP, making it ideal for Full HD, 4MP, and 5MP Sitcon IP cameras. With the standard built-in 1TB hard drive, you can record multiple cameras for days to weeks, depending on the selected settings.

Operation of the 4-channel NVR recorder – PoE / UTP SMART

The recorder is designed for easy installation without requiring in-depth networking knowledge. You connect the NVR to your router with the included network cable and connect the IP cameras directly to the PoE ports on the recorder. The NVR automatically recognizes Sitcon IP cameras, and thanks to ONVIF support, other brands of IP cameras can often be connected as well. The recorder provides power and network connectivity via the same cable, eliminating the need for separate power supplies or PoE injectors.

Motion detection and 1TB hard drive

The 4-channel NVR recorder – PoE/UTP SMART comes with a built-in 1TB hard drive. By default, the recorder is set to record on motion, ensuring efficient storage usage. The recorder can also record a few seconds before motion, ensuring you always have the full event in view. When the hard drive is full, the oldest footage is automatically overwritten. For most situations with 2 to 4 cameras at Full HD or 4MP, this means several days, sometimes even weeks, of video footage is available.

Snapshots to the cloud (Dropbox)

An additional layer of security is the ability to automatically send snapshots to a Dropbox account when motion is detected. Should the recorder be accidentally taken or damaged, footage or images are still stored externally. A Dropbox account is free to create and serves as a personal online storage location.

Watch live via app and computer

The NVR supports P2P cloud access, allowing you to easily connect to the free app via a QR code. Without complicated port settings, you can watch live and review recordings from your smartphone, tablet, or computer. This works both within your own network and remotely, for example, from your work or vacation address. Push notifications in the app immediately alert you to any motion, allowing you to view the corresponding recording or live footage.

View images on TV or monitor

For local playback, simply connect the recorder to a TV or monitor using the HDMI output. A VGA output is also available for older monitors. The user-friendly menu allows you to view cameras in full screen, quad view, or other formats, and quickly search for recordings by date, time, or event.

Use with Sitcon IP cameras and ONVIF cameras

The 4-channel NVR recorder – PoE/UTP SMART is compatible with Sitcon IP cameras from the SMART and EASY lines with resolutions up to 5MP. It's ideally suited for Full HD and 4MP cameras, but 5MP models are also supported. Thanks to ONVIF compatibility, you can often connect existing IP cameras from other brands, as long as they support ONVIF. This makes the recorder suitable for both new installations and upgrading existing systems.

Optional: working via the mains with powerline adapters

If running network cables is difficult, you can optionally use powerline adapters. These send network traffic via existing electrical wiring. You place one adapter near the NVR and a second adapter near the camera, then connect them with a short network cable. As long as all adapters are connected behind the same electrical panel, this can be a practical solution for installing cameras without long cable runs.
