Dahua DH-XVR5232AN-I3 — 32-Channel Penta-brid AI Digital Video Recorder
The Dahua DH-XVR5232AN-I3 is a 32-channel Penta-brid recorder from Dahua's AI series, accepting HDCVI/AHD/TVI/CVBS analogue cameras and up to 48 IP camera channels on the same box.

Who is it for?
A Penta-brid DVR/XVR suits sites upgrading an existing coax-cabled analogue system camera by camera, or mixing analogue and IP cameras on one recorder. With 32 analog channels plus IP capacity, this model suits larger commercial sites needing both legacy and new camera support on a single recorder.
