Description
The DVR5300 Series digital video recorder (DVR) represents a whole new concept in enterprise digital video recording solutions. It is one of the
recording components of Endura®, Pelco’s most advanced integrated video security system. The DVR represents the state of the art in scalability,
performance, expandability, and reliability. It is ideally suited for mission-critical, enterprise surveillance applications.
The DVR5300 Series recorder is capable of continuous, scheduled, alarm/event, and motion recording. Pre- and post-alarm recording is also
available. All recording is fully programmable on a per-channel basis. The unit maximizes storage efficiency using EnduraStor™, a time- and
priority-based system that identifies data to be removed when stored video reaches a predefined age. With EnduraStor, users no longer have to
compromise on recorded frame rates to save on storage costs. EnduraStor gives users the ability to retain full frame rate recorded video for a
user-defined period of time and then reduce the frame rate to save on storage costs.
Designed with reliability in mind, the DVR5300 Series provides performance enhancement and fault tolerance by employing RAID 5 (Redundant
Array of Independent Disks level 5) disk management across as many as 12 hard drives. The DVR incorporates two RAID 5 controllers, each
managing six hard drives.
NOTE: The DVR5300 Series recorder supports hot-swappable hard drives in case of failure; it does not support hot hard drive expansion.
Dual redundant, hot-swappable power supplies add another layer of reliability to the unit. Support for matrix -enabled failover rounds out the
reliability aspects of the DVR5300.
Diagnostics are systemized with other Endura products and can be reported to the Endura system. Administrators can view the status of
individual components in realtime, thereby preventing failures.
Together with the Pelco ENC5300 Series USB multichannel video recorder, the DVR5300 supports control of pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) cameras.
Itsupports Pelco D, Pelco P, and Coaxitron® protocols. With Coaxitron, the DVR receives commands from a Pelco controller and transmits those
commands to the PTZ device through the ENC5300. With the Pelco D and Pelco P protocols, the DVR transmits those comman ds directly to the
PTZ device over a serial connection.
With its modular design, you can connect up to three ENC5300 Series units to each DVR5300 for a maximum of 24 or 48 analog video inputs per
DVR5300 (depending on model). You can also mix NET5301T or other Endura video recorders with the ENC5300 units for a total of 24 or 48
analog and IP video inputs per DVR5300 (depending on model).
Video can be monitored and played back from the CM9700 Series (CM9760/9770/9780) matrix using the optional CM9700MDD-EVS, a WS5000
Endura workstation, or a VCD5000 video console display.
The DVR5300 Series integrates seamlessly with Pelco’s integrated security products to create a robust, secure, and expandable security
platform.
