Frequently Asked Questions
What is an 8 channel NVR and how does it work?
An 8 channel NVR (network video recorder) is a surveillance system that records video from up to 8 IP cameras simultaneously. The InVid Tech VN2A-8X8 uses PoE (Power over Ethernet) technology to deliver both power and data through a single cable, simplifying installation and reducing infrastructure costs compared to traditional analog systems.
How much video storage does the 8TB model provide?
The VN2A-8X8/8TB includes 8TB of built-in hard drive storage, which provides extended video retention depending on resolution and frame rate settings. For typical 1080p-4K surveillance, this capacity supports weeks to months of continuous recording from all 8 channels, with exact retention varying by bitrate configuration.
Can I upgrade the NVR to cloud storage later?
Yes, the InVid Tech VN2A-8X8 supports cloud upgrade capability, allowing you to expand your surveillance infrastructure with cloud backup and remote access features without replacing the hardware. This future-proof design protects your investment as your security needs evolve.
Is the VN2A-8X8 suitable for 4K camera systems?
The VN2A-8X8 supports up to 8 megapixel resolution recording with 4K output capability, making it compatible with modern high-resolution IP cameras. The 160 Mbps bit rate input ensures smooth multi-camera streaming even with premium resolution feeds.
