How many IP cameras can you run from a 16 channel GV 800

Recommended Posts


A question with a lot of particulars. In affect you can run up to 32 cameras total.

 

How many analog cameras are you using? If it's 16 you can add up to 8 Geovision IP cameras license free and 8 more with a license using Ver 8.3.3. If you upgrade to Ver 8.4 NVR, you can run 32 Geovision IP cams, license free and yank out your GV800.

 

If you want to add non-Geovision IP's to your GV800, you can go up to 32 (16 analog with 16 IP's) but you have to purchase the license/dongle for the number of cameras you're getting. Existing ones can be upgraded for a fee.

 

One note. Make sure your computer is up to the task as far as processor and storage

I have been told 4 cameras per hard drive. The read write of the HD seems to be the bottle neck.

Better have an I7 processor if your going to run more than 6.

 

Also depends on the camera.

IF it was a 2mp or higher those rules could change.
