A universal port recorder like the PD1B-32N supports multiple camera formats (TVI, AHD, CVI, analog, and IP) on a single device.

The PD1B-32N features 4 hard drive bays for surveillance storage, allowing you to install multiple drives for extended recording retention. Storage capacity depends on drive size and resolution; 5 MP Lite recording optimizes storage efficiency for longer retention periods.
