Ajax NVR H2D8PAC (16-ch)
Product description
Ajax network video recorders integrate Ajax video devices and third-party IP cameras into a single ecosystem. NVR H2D series recorders support two hot-swappable hard drives, ideal for facilities that require deeper archiving and reliable data backup. Thanks to the PoE ports, the NVRs can directly connect to and power up to 16 IP cameras. The system adapts to specific surveillance needs: video can be managed remotely via Ajax apps or on-site with the built-in VMS.
More features
Always recording without service interruptions
All devices in the NVR H2D series offer continuous recording, even during maintenance. They support hot-swapping, so installed hard drives can be replaced at any time without turning off the recorder.
The full story is preserved with dual-drive recording
The NVR H2D series offers two recording modes designed to improve system resilience. Both minimize the risk of data loss if one drive fails, ensuring that sufficient context of recorded events is always retained.
Keeping track of critical events from your desk or on the go
Ajax NVRs easily adapt to any monitoring workflow. Ajax offers a complete suite of mobile and desktop apps for comprehensive video management. These secure, cloud-based tools allow users to view the video wall, manage the archive, and adjust settings from anywhere in the world. And with 4K HDMI and three USB ports for connecting a monitor and peripherals, a full-fledged monitoring station can be set up right from your desk. Regardless of the setup, relevant events always remain in view.
Easy integration via ONVIF and RTSP
Ajax video devices support ONVIF and RTSP protocols—no special tricks, no extra effort. This opens up countless possibilities to upgrade and modernize existing video installations with advanced security features. Ajax cameras and NVRs connect to third-party surveillance or video management systems (VMS) with just a few taps. A special wizard in Ajax apps simplifies the configuration process by automatically retrieving all necessary network data. Enjoy smooth streaming and flexible image configurations, whether you are building a new installation or expanding an existing one.
Customizable video wall for simultaneous monitoring
Streamline surveillance with a video wall that displays integrated video streams from all connected devices. Keep every corner of the building in view—whether on an HDMI-connected monitor or via Ajax apps on mobile devices and desktops. Change the layout as needed to keep the most important images in focus.
Smooth archive navigation
With Ajax apps, you can find recorded events faster than ever. Thanks to our patented JetSparrow technology, the system reacts instantly, ensuring smooth playback and effortless navigation through the event timeline. Users can tap on an event to jump directly to the relevant footage, filter recordings by date or object type, and export clips in seconds—all within one intuitive interface.
