DECISION GUIDE

Plan the system around the property and the required outcome

A CCTV recorder must match camera technology, resolution, encoding, channel count and storage demand. Recorder replacement should preserve required footage settings while avoiding unsupported camera combinations.

A recorder must support the connected cameras, required recording duration and remote-access workflow. Configuration includes time, users, recording schedules and playback tests.

Common questions

Direct answers to practical questions customers ask before booking this service.

What is the difference between an NVR and DVR?

An NVR records network-camera streams; a DVR records supported analogue camera signals. Hybrid models vary, so the existing camera format must be confirmed.

How much CCTV storage do I need?

Storage depends on camera count, resolution, frame rate, codec, scene activity, recording mode and required retention. It should be calculated from the final settings.

Can I keep my existing cameras with a new recorder?

Possibly. Camera signal format, resolution, protocol and feature support must match the recorder.
