Who is it for?

Frequently asked questions
How many cameras can the built-in PoE power?
Up to 16, directly from the recorder — no separate switch needed.
Why two HDD bays instead of one?
16 cameras generate more footage than a single-bay recorder can comfortably retain long-term; two bays let you split load or mirror for redundancy.
Do I need AI-enabled cameras for face detection?
No — it runs on the recorder itself.
