What is a Network Video Recorder (NVR)?
A Network Video Recorder (NVR) is a device that plays an important role in modern security systems by recording and storing surveillance video footage in digital format. Unlike traditional Digital Video Recorders (DVRs), which rely on analogue cameras, NVRs are designed for IP video surveillance systems. They work by processing and storing video captured by IP or CCTV cameras, which is transferred to the NVR via an ethernet or Wi-Fi network.
