lars_4 0 Posted December 16, 2014 Hi! I am new to the forum and new to the NVR area. I am looking for a brand spanking new NVR to record from my 4x 1080 full hd hikvision camera's. Want a 8ch one because i may want to expand in the future. There are a lott of them on the market, i looked at the Xvision mini nvr, but i cannot find any pictures on how the web interface looks? I am not going to look at the video from the monitor connected to the NVR, but remotely via Web, what would be my best solution? The NVR will be in an dedicated serverroom. A little under $100 is my price range. Any help is appriciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abdelm01 0 Posted December 16, 2014 If you want the full compatibility and usage to those cameras, you would deff want to go with a hikvision NVR, maybe a DS-7608NI. Or you can just buy you a NAS and point those cameras to it to record. But you will still be spending 200+ for the right amount of storage. so might as well buy you a hikvision NVR and save your self a headache in the long run.

lars_4 0 Posted December 17, 2014 Storage is no problem, have several harddisks and such. On another note, what type of POE does Hikvision have? I know it's 802.3af, but do they use Mode-A (endspan) or Mode-B (midspan) ? I cannot find any information about this anywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssnapier 0 Posted December 17, 2014 Yeah $100 is just far too low of a budget to get what you need here. I would be in the mid 200's to about 400 if it were me. Depends on the options. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
