An 8-channel NVR (Network Video Recorder) from Tiandy is a digital system designed to record and manage video footage from up to 8 IP (network) cameras. IP Cameras connect to the network and stream video data.
• The NVR receives, processes, and records video streams from up to 8 IP cameras.
• Storage is handled internally on the NVR (usually with one or more hard drives installed).
• The NVR can display live footage and playback via HDMI/VGA output or remotely via app/software. Direct (with PoE):
• If your Tiandy NVR has built-in PoE ports, plug each IP camera directly into these ports using Ethernet cables (CAT5e/CAT6). This supplies power and data via one cable. Via Network Switch (Non-PoE NVR):
• Cameras and NVR connect to the same LAN network via a switch/router.
