Reliable Recording for Coax-Based Cameras

Should You Choose a DVR or an NVR?
Choose a CCTV DVR
Use a compatible DVR when your cameras send video through coaxial cable and BNC inputs. A DVR is often the practical choice when upgrading an existing coax-based installation.
Choose a SureVision NVR
For most completely new wired installations, consider an NVR with compatible IP or PoE cameras that transmit video through an Ethernet network.
