Frequently Asked Questions
What is a universal port recorder and why do I need one?
A universal port recorder supports multiple camera protocols (TVI, AHD, CVI, Analog, IP) on a single device. This eliminates costly hardware duplication when managing mixed-camera environments, reduces integration complexity, and provides future-proof flexibility as your surveillance infrastructure evolves.
How much video can 40TB of storage hold?
The 40TB storage capacity depends on recording resolution and frame rate. At 5MP Lite resolution with continuous 24/7 recording, expect retention periods ranging from 30-90 days depending on compression settings and camera count. This extended retention is ideal for incident investigation and compliance requirements.
Can I mix different camera types on the PD1C-32N?
Yes. This 32 channel universal port recorder simultaneously supports TVI, AHD, CVI, Analog, and IP cameras without protocol conflicts. You can deploy 32 analog cameras, 32 IP cameras, or any combination across all five protocols on a single system.
What are the eight HD bays used for?
The eight HD bays provide flexible storage expansion and redundancy. You can configure them for RAID protection, hot-swap capability, or additional capacity beyond the standard 40TB configuration, ensuring business continuity and data protection for mission-critical surveillance.
