Introducing ND8401 Network Video Recorder

VIVOTEK ND8401 is a 16-CH Network Video Recorder designed for sophisticated recording ap- plications. The unit is equipped with an Intel Dual-core Atom Processor with maximum recording throughput at a robust 96 Mbps. RAID 0/1/5/10 is supported with four HDDs, with an external eSATA port for additional expansion. Like VIVOTEK NVR ND8301, a local display output port is available with full HD resolution (1920x1080), eliminating the need for a separate PC to view video from the unit. Setup of parameters such as IP address, HDD to logical volumes, and basic camera configuration can easily be performed with the setup wizard, making the ND8401 the easiest NVR to use yet. When connecting ND8401 to more than one of the same model of VI- VOTEK camera, the “Shepherd” program can be used to duplicate the configuration to multiple cameras.

VIVOTEK’s professional software VAST is installed in ND8401 with performance tuning, al- lowing for simple and effective management of a surveillance system using the LiveClient and Playback programs. As VIVOTEK’s camera features are fully integrated into VAST, cutting-edge technologies such as Activity Adaptive Recording can be utilized to conserve bandwidth and optimize recording. A CMS server running VAST software can also directly control the ND8401, and compatibility with the iViewer application allows for remote access to the ND8401 on hand- held devices. By integrating all of the components together using VIVOTEK’s ND8401, network cameras, VAST and iViewer software, users can realize a fully-featured and robust next-genera- tion surveillance system.

One of its main features is the capability to support up to 64 channels of high-definition video recording, allowing for comprehensive monitoring across extensive environments.

Powered by Vivotek's cutting-edge technologies, the ND4801 employs H.265 video compression, which significantly reduces bandwidth usage and storage requirements without compromising video quality. This is particularly beneficial for users who need to store vast amounts of footage while maintaining clarity and detail. The recorder can accommodate various resolutions, including 4K Ultra HD, ensuring that even the most intricate details are captured effectively.

Another notable characteristic of the ND4801 is its user-friendly interface, which allows for easy configuration and management of connected cameras. The intuitive web interface provides real-time preview capabilities, playback, and advanced search functionalities, enabling users to efficiently navigate through recorded footage. Moreover, the NVR supports multiple display modes and layouts, facilitating seamless monitoring across multiple screens.

The device’s built-in RAID support further enhances data security, offering options for RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 configurations. This ensures redundancy and data protection against potential drive failures, making it a reliable choice for mission-critical surveillance tasks. In addition, the ND4801 features PoE (Power over Ethernet) support, simplifying installation by allowing users to power cameras directly through the network cable, thus reducing cable clutter and installation costs.

To enhance surveillance capabilities, the ND4801 integrates sophisticated analytics features such as motion detection and people counting. These intelligent functions help in effectively managing alarms and can reduce false positives, leading to a more accurate monitoring experience. The ND4801 also supports integration with third-party VMS (Video Management Software), allowing for flexibility in system design and functionality.

In summary, the Vivotek ND4801 NVR is a powerful and versatile solution for modern surveillance needs. With its support for high-definition recording, advanced video compression, user-friendly interface, enhanced data security features, and intelligent analytics, the ND4801 is well-equipped to meet the demands of various industries, including retail, transportation, and critical infrastructure. Its robustness and adaptability make it an ideal choice for anyone seeking a reliable video surveillance solution.
