Dahua DH-XVR5216AN-I3 — 16-Channel Penta-brid DVR
The DH-XVR5216AN-I3 is a 16-channel Penta-brid recorder — its BNC inputs auto-detect HDCVI, AHD, TVI or CVBS analog cameras, and it accepts up to 24 additional IP channels (up to 6MP), across 2 SATA HDD bays (up to 16TB each).
Who is it for?
The 16-channel, dual-bay design with Penta-brid flexibility suits larger mixed analog/IP installs — warehouses, retail chains, upgrading multi-camera sites — without forcing a full switch to IP-only infrastructure.

Frequently asked questions
What does "Penta-brid" mean?
The recorder auto-detects and accepts HDCVI, AHD, TVI, CVBS analog and IP cameras on the same box.
Can I mix analog and IP cameras?

Why two HDD bays?
More storage headroom for 16+ cameras than a single-bay recorder.
