Uniarch PoE Network Video Recorder for Small CCTV Systems
The Uniarch NVR-104B-P4 and NVR-108B-P8 are easy-to-use PoE Network Video Recorders designed for reliable IP camera recording in homes, small businesses, offices, cafés, warehouses, and light commercial sites.
With built-in PoE ports, these NVRs allow compatible IP cameras to be connected directly to the recorder using a single network cable for both power and data. This makes installation cleaner and simpler compared with using separate PoE switches or power supplies.
Available Models
- NVR-104B-P4: 4-channel NVR with 4 built-in PoE ports
- NVR-108B-P8: 8-channel NVR with 8 built-in PoE ports
Ultra 265, H.265 and H.264 Video Compression
The NVR supports Ultra 265, H.265 and H.264 video formats, helping reduce storage usage while maintaining high-quality video recording. This is especially useful for systems recording multiple cameras continuously or over long retention periods.
Up to 16MP Recording Resolution
These Uniarch NVRs support recording resolutions up to 16 megapixels, making them suitable for high-resolution IP camera systems. They can also record common resolutions including 12MP, 8MP, 6MP, 5MP, 4MP, 3MP, 1080p and lower resolutions.
Plug-and-Play PoE Camera Ports
The built-in PoE ports make installation straightforward. Simply connect compatible IP cameras to the rear PoE ports and the NVR can provide both power and network connectivity through the same Ethernet cable.
- 4CH model: 4 independent PoE ports
- 8CH model: 8 independent PoE ports
- PoE standard: IEEE 802.3af / IEEE 802.3at
- Maximum single-port PoE output: 30W
- Total PoE budget: 50W for NVR-104B-P4, 75W for NVR-108B-P8
ONVIF and RTSP Compatibility
The NVR supports mainstream cameras using ONVIF Profile S, Profile G and Profile T, as well as RTSP. This gives installers more flexibility when working with compatible third-party IP cameras.
HDMI and VGA Output
Both models support simultaneous HDMI and VGA display output, allowing connection to a monitor or TV for live view, playback, configuration, and local operation.
- HDMI output: Up to 4K / 30Hz
- VGA output: Up to 1920 × 1080 / 60Hz
Smart Event Support by Compatible Cameras
When paired with compatible smart IP cameras, the NVR supports intelligent event functions such as face detection, intrusion detection, cross line detection, enter area, leave area, Ultra Motion Detection, people counting, vehicle search, human body search, heat map and other smart search functions.
Please note that smart analytics depend on the connected camera model and camera-side capabilities.
Reliable Recording with ANR Technology
ANR technology helps improve storage reliability when the network connection is interrupted. This is useful in systems where recording continuity is important.
Storage Support
The NVR includes 1 SATA HDD interface and supports up to 16TB hard drive capacity, making it suitable for typical small CCTV recording applications.
Compact 1U Desktop Design
With compact dimensions of 260mm × 222mm × 47mm, the recorder is suitable for desks, shelves, cabinets, cupboards, small comms areas, or rack installations when used with the optional rack mount accessory.
