CHOOSE YOUR SIZE — THREE MODELS ON THIS PAGE

Rule of thumb: count your cameras, then leave room to grow — a shop with 3 cameras runs happily on the 04S3; pick the 08S3 or 16S3 if you may add cameras later. Highlighted rows in the spec table below show every difference between the three.

Is this the right recorder for you?

Plain-language guide for buyers and installers — based only on what this recorder actually does.

Small shops & homesThe 4-ch 04S3 plus four cameras is a complete kit — one disk, one screen, done.

Growing businessesBuy channels you don't use yet: the 08S3/16S3 lets you add cameras later without replacing the recorder.

Remote viewing on phoneP2P protocol built in — the owner checks the shop from a phone app without a fixed IP or network skills.

Local-language interface21 GUI languages including Spanish (Latin America), Portuguese (Brazil) and French — your customer operates it in their own language.

Longer video retentionUltra 265 roughly halves file size versus H.264 — the same 10 TB disk keeps weeks more footage.

Mixed-brand projectsONVIF certification means existing third-party IP cameras are more likely to keep working — no need to replace the whole site.

Quick incident lookupFace Snapshot Search and Behavior Search narrow hours of footage down to the exact clip — useful when someone needs to find "the person who came in around 3pm."

Not the right pick if you need…

PoE ports — cameras need a separate PoE switch (we bundle one at combo price)
A second hard disk or RAID — this series has a single SATA bay
Gigabit uplink — the network port is 10/100M (fine for 16 cameras at 64 Mbps total)
Alarm in/out wiring for sirens or sensors
Audio input — it has a 3.5mm audio output only (camera-side mics still record)

Saves your disk. Finds the moment.

Two real capabilities from the datasheet that matter every day: storage efficiency and fast retrieval.

ULTRA 265

Half the storage, same image

Ultra 265 compression cuts recording size dramatically versus H.264 — on the same 10 TB disk you keep footage for weeks longer, or record more cameras at higher resolution.

SMART SEARCH

Find the moment, not the footage

Built-in face detection on up to 4 channels feeds Face Snapshot Search and Behavior Search — the recorder indexes up to 2 million face snapshots so you jump straight to the clip you need instead of scrubbing hours of footage.
