The Uniview XVR301-08G3 8 channel XVR is a compact CCTV recorder for small shops, offices and homes. It records at up to 5MP Lite, has one SATA bay that takes drives up to 8TB, and shows live video on a monitor through HDMI or VGA.

If you are searching for a dependable Uniview XVR, this model keeps setup simple. It has a Gigabit-class network port (RJ45), two USB 2.0 ports for backup and accessories, and a small body that fits on a shelf or in a rack.

Day to day, it lets you watch live feeds, play back footage and copy clips to a USB drive. Recording resolution depends on the camera type, so you can run it with the cameras you already have.

Key Features

• HDMI and VGA video output: You can connect modern HDMI monitors or older VGA displays. This saves you buying an adapter.

• Up to 8TB per HDD: The SATA bay supports large drives, so you can keep more days of footage before it is overwritten.

• Recording up to 5MP Lite: Record at 5MP Lite@12fps, 4MP@15fps, 1080P@30fps or 720P@30fps. Pick the setting that balances detail against storage.

• IP camera support up to 4MP: Each IP channel accepts up to 4MP cameras, so you can upgrade some of your cameras later without replacing the recorder.

• 64Mbps outgoing bandwidth: The recorder can send video over the network at up to 64Mbps, which helps with remote viewing and streaming.

• Audio recording: Audio is captured at 8KHz, 16-bit, 64Kbps per channel. This is enough to record voices and background sound alongside the video.

• USB backup: Copy important footage to a USB drive, with no extra software or hardware to set up.

• Low power use: It draws 10W or less without a hard drive (DC12V/2A), which keeps running costs low for a recorder that is on all day.

• Compact build: At 190mm × 202mm × 42mm and no more than 0.6 kg, it fits tight spaces.
