NVR508-16 / 32 / 64B

16 / 32 / 64-channel 2U rack-mount network video recorder — 8 SATA bays with RAID 1/5, records cameras up to 16MP, Ultra 265 compression, ONVIF certified for third-party IP cameras.

CHOOSE YOUR SIZE — THREE MODELS ON THIS PAGE
Rule of thumb: count your cameras, then leave room to grow — the 16B suits a single building; step up to the 32B or 64B for campus or multi-building sites that need RAID-protected storage. Highlighted rows in the spec table below show every difference between the three.
In-stock models: 3 days to your designated warehouse after payment · Out-of-stock or insufficient stock: 7–15 working days

Sample quantities are welcome — testing one or two units first is the normal way to start.

The Uniview NVR508-B Series is an 8-bay 2U rack-mount network video recorder offered in three sizes: NVR508-16B (16-ch), NVR508-32B (32-ch) and NVR508-64B (64-ch). All three record cameras up to 16MP with Ultra 265 / H.265 / H.264 compression, support RAID 1/5 across up to 8 SATA bays (24 TB each), and output VGA/HDMI independently, with the 64B model outputting both simultaneously by default. The recorder carries ONVIF certification and provides a 38-language local interface.

Is this the right recorder for you?

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

Multi-building & campus sites64 channels and 8 HDD bays cover a large site from one recorder — fewer boxes to manage across buildings.
Growing deploymentsBuy channels ahead: the 32B/64B lets you add cameras later without swapping the recorder.
Mission-critical footageRAID 1/5 across the 8 bays plus N+1 hot spare protects recordings if a disk fails — footage survives a single drive failure.
Unreliable network linksANR technology keeps recording locally when the network drops, then backfills the gap once the connection is restored.
Investigation & retrievalFace, vehicle (LPR), human body and heat-map search narrow hours of multi-channel footage down to the right clip.
Mixed-brand projectsONVIF certification means existing third-party IP cameras are more likely to keep working — no need to replace the whole site.
Multi-language deployments38 GUI languages including Spanish (Latin America), Portuguese (Brazil) and French — your customer operates it in their own language.
Not the right pick if you need…
  • PoE ports — cameras need a separate PoE switch (we bundle one at combo price)
  • Hot-swap drive trays — the manual doesn't describe hot-swap bays; the 8 SATA drives mount inside the chassis
  • A redundant/dual power supply — Power Supply is a single AC 100–240V input, not described as dual
  • RAID 6 or RAID 10 — Disk Array Type supports only RAID 1 and RAID 5
  • RS232 serial control — this series has no RS232 port (RS485 only)

Worried about counterfeits? Order under your own company name.

For corporate buyers: we support submitting the purchase order to Uniview under your company's real name — your company appears on the official order, so the origin of the goods can be verified directly with the manufacturer. Just provide your company name and pay by corporate bank transfer. Models carrying the anti-counterfeit label can also be self-verified on Uniview's official Anti-Counterfeiting Query page — enter the unit's SN plus the scratch-off code.

RAID-protected storage. Investigation-ready search.

Two real capabilities from the datasheet that matter on large sites: disk-failure protection and fast multi-channel search.

RAID 1/5 STORAGE

Protected against drive failure

8 SATA bays (up to 24 TB each) support RAID 1 and RAID 5 with N+1 hot spare — if one disk fails, recordings on the array keep working instead of disappearing with the drive.

SMART SEARCH

Find the moment across 64 channels

Face, vehicle (LPR), human body and general VCA search plus Heat Map and People Counting turn hours of multi-channel footage into the exact clip you need.
