Sir Flannel 0 Posted August 7, 2005 Anyone ever seen a combonation DVR and Matrix switcher?Something capable of >64 cameras, maybe with expandable hard drive storage? I've got a matrix at this sight, and three DVR's so far, and the future holds at least 25 more cameras, and that rack is gettin crowded! Any ideas or info would be appreciated.

rory 0 Posted August 7, 2005 http://www.geindustrial.com/cwc/products/ge-interlogix?pnlid=9&famid=63&catid=1088&id=DVMRe_Matrix&lang=en_US The Network Software is capable of 64 way multi view from up to 16 DVRs. Then there is the old school matrix up to 32 channels. http://www.ge-consultantlink.com/Docs/ktd_348_prd.pdf 2 of those and 2 DSR-2000 single channel DVRs. and also check this out. http://www.geindustrial.com/cwc/products/ge-interlogix?pnlid=9&famid=63&catid=1090&id=DigiplexIV&lang=en_US But the all in ones are nicer and have more networking features. Other than that, would be something like a 32 channel PC DVR, hard ware compression, so you would rack mount 2 of them. Here is a lunux based PC: (108 channels?) http://www.webgateinc.com/wgi_htdocs/eng/product/view.php?id=wgi_eng&page=1&sn1=&divpage=1&category=1&sn=off&ss=on&sc=on&select_arrange=headnum&desc=asc&no=7 PC Based Hardware Compression 32 Channels: http://www.i-viewusa.com/dg-3200ase.htm Toshiba 64 channels (?) - dont know how good it is though. http://www.2mcctv.com/specs/EVR-1.pdf There is anothe company that sells 64 channel DVRs cant remember the name someone here may post it.

Sir Flannel 0 Posted August 9, 2005 Funny you should mention GE The site has a Digiplex IV in it, and three GE DVR's. I'm happy with the setup so far, but the Chief seems to think there was a DVR/Matrix all in one, and I can't really see a viable alternative. Thanks for the reply, I couldn't find anything else I'd want to jump ship over, myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
