MODEL SV-DVR16-N
16-Channel 4K CCTV DVR with 4TB Storage
Reliable recording. Easy viewing. No monthly fees.
Bring your CCTV cameras together in one easy-to-use SureVision recorder. Enjoy clear video, private local storage and convenient viewing for your home or business.

Will it work with my CCTV cameras?
This SureVision DVR is designed for HD-over-coax security cameras with BNC connections. It is a dependable choice for recording and viewing your SureVision CCTV cameras.
Can I connect it to a monitor?
Yes. Connect a monitor or TV using the recorder’s HDMI output to see your cameras and play back recordings on one screen.
Can I view my cameras on my phone?
Yes. Free remote viewing lets you check your cameras from a phone or computer when connected to the internet. There are no required monthly fees, and our U.S. support team can help you get started.
Professional recording for your existing coax cameras
Bring up to 16 compatible BNC security cameras together on one 16-channel digital video recorder. It is a practical upgrade for larger businesses and properties with multiple entrances, rooms and activity areas. Keep suitable existing coax camera runs while improving how you record, review and manage your surveillance. Match the camera signal format and resolution to the recorder before replacing older equipment; our team can help check your existing model.
4TB installed for local video recording
A 4TB surveillance-grade hard drive is preinstalled, so your recordings stay on the recorder at your property. Choose continuous, scheduled or motion-based recording to suit the location. Recording time depends on camera count, resolution, frame rate, image activity and your recording schedule. Two internal SATA interfaces provide room for storage expansion. Ask us to confirm a supported storage configuration if you need a longer recording history. Local recording and included remote-viewing tools do not require a monthly subscription.
See the detail—and understand the recording settings
Record compatible cameras at resolutions up to 8MP/4K, or choose lower resolutions and different frame rates to balance detail, motion and storage use. This model records 8MP at up to 8 frames per second, 5MP at 12 and 4MP at 15; 4K monitor output is separate from the camera recording frame rate. Connect an HDMI display for a clear local viewing station, with VGA output also available. View several cameras together and return to the view you need without changing between separate recorders.
Monitoring tools that help you find what matters
More than a video archive, this DVR includes Ultra Motion Detection on up to 16 channels and smart intrusion/line-crossing functions on up to 8 channels. Set a virtual line or an area to help focus monitoring on an entrance, boundary or restricted space. Supported smart functions also include entering and leaving an area. Configure the relevant detection rules and recording actions for your cameras; available combinations depend on the selected mode. Motion and system alerts help you notice activity or recording problems, including a disconnected network or an abnormal hard drive.
Playback, event search and useful video clips
Review recordings by date and time, investigate activity and save important video for follow-up. Behavior search helps locate supported recorded events instead of relying only on a long manual review. Use playback and export tools to retain the footage you need for staff discussions, incident documentation or a record of what happened. Search results depend on the detection and recording settings enabled when the event occurred.
Check in from your phone or computer
The included mobile app and remote-viewing software let you see live cameras and review recordings away from the recorder. Check on your business after closing, look in on a delivery or review activity while you are away. Internet access is needed for remote viewing; local recording does not depend on a cloud-storage subscription. Our support team can help with initial setup, everyday viewing and the available notification controls.
Audio when paired with compatible cameras
With compatible TVI cameras and the appropriate audio mode, the recorder supports one-way audio over coax on up to 16 channels. That can add useful context to recorded activity without assuming every connected camera has a microphone. Audio recording requires an audio-capable camera; match the camera and DVR settings before relying on sound. A separate RCA input/output path supports one-channel two-way audio with suitable external equipment.
SureVision quality, with people who stand behind it
SureVision brings professional surveillance recording, local storage and included monitoring tools together in equipment backed by CCTV Security Pros. Your recorder includes a 3-year warranty and unlimited USA-based support before and after purchase. Our team can help you choose compatible cameras, plan recording capacity and get comfortable with the system. Dependable equipment and ongoing expert help make this a complete recording solution for businesses and homes, without required monthly viewing fees.
