Take complete control of your network security infrastructure with the TRENDnet 4-Channel 1080p HD Standalone PoE Network Video Recorder (Model TV-NVR104). Designed as a fully integrated, computer-free management station, this centralized recorder smoothly links, powers, and administers up to four IP surveillance cameras. By deploying built-in Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, it delivers both high-speed data transmission and stable electrical power over standard network cables directly to your cameras. This streamlined single-cable installation eliminates the logistical headache and added cost of deploying separate power supplies or calling in dedicated electrical installers.
Engineered for continuous security cycles, the TV-NVR104 features an internal 3.5-inch SATA bay accommodating high-capacity hard drives up to 4TB (HDDs sold separately). When maximized, this system archives more than three weeks of non-stop, fluid Full HD 1080p video footage across all channels simultaneously using highly efficient H.264 video compression layouts. The unit includes dual native HDMI and VGA local monitor interfaces for multi-camera split-screen streaming on local monitors, an intuitive calendar-based timeline tool for rapid clip lookups, and free mobile apps for global remote tracking. Built on universally recognized ONVIF standards, it auto-recognizes plug-and-play TRENDnet cameras while remaining compatible with third-party network cameras.
