Dahua DH-XVR5216AN-4KL-I3 — 16-Channel Penta-brid Digital Video Recorder
The Dahua DH-XVR5216AN-4KL-I3 is a 16-channel Penta-brid WizSense recorder in a compact 1U, 2-bay chassis. It accepts HDCVI, AHD, TVI and older CVBS analogue cameras on its 16 analog inputs, and adds up to 32 IP channels for genuine hybrid analogue/IP systems on one box.
Who is it for?
DVR/XVR recorders accept HD-over-coax (HDCVI/AHD/TVI), older analogue (CVBS) AND IP cameras on the same box — ideal for upgrading an existing coax-cabled system camera by camera without a full re-cable. With 16 analog channels plus up to 32 IP channels, the DH-XVR5216AN-4KL-I3 suits a mid-to-larger site — a busy retail unit, warehouse, or multi-room commercial premises — that wants to keep its existing coax cameras running today while adding IP cameras channel by channel as budget allows.

What you will need

- An HDMI or VGA monitor for local live view and setup
Frequently asked questions
Can I mix HDCVI, AHD, TVI and CVBS cameras on the same recorder?
Yes. Each of the 16 analog channels auto-detects the signal type, so HDCVI, AHD, TVI and standard CVBS cameras can be mixed freely across the inputs.
Is there a monthly fee to use this recorder?
No. Recording is entirely local to the fitted hard drive(s); there is no subscription or monthly fee for storage or the AI functions built into the unit.
Can I add IP cameras later?
Yes. Up to 32 IP channels (up to 8MP each) are available alongside the 16 analog inputs, so IP cameras can be added progressively without replacing the recorder.
What resolution can I record at?
The DH-XVR5216AN-4KL-I3 supports up to 4K-N at 15fps or 5MP at 25fps per analog channel, depending on the frame rate you need.
