In-Depth: What Each Tool Does

  • Remote Viewing: Secure, cloud-assisted P2P makes it simple to connect from anywhere. Push alerts keep you informed on critical events.
  • Motion Detection: Define zones and sensitivity; focus on relevant activity to reduce false positives from wind, shadows, or pets.
  • Smart Intrusion Prevention: AI detects people/vehicles entering protected areas and filters out non-threats for meaningful alerts.
  • Video Content Analysis (VCA): Line-crossing, intrusion, abandoned/removed objects—quickly pinpoint incidents in playback.
  • Recording Management: Choose continuous, schedule, or event-based recording with smart codecs to maximize storage.
  • Playback & Search: Jump to events instantly, scrub timelines, and export shareable clips in seconds.
  • Alarms & Notifications: Trigger email, push, or I/O relays on camera/NVR events for coordinated response.
  • Email Notifications: Include snapshots or short clips for rapid triage without logging in.
  • Live View & Multi-Screen: Build custom layouts, enable audio, and de-warp fisheye cameras in real time.
  • Network & Device Management: Auto-discover IP cameras, assign addresses, and manage PoE power from the NVR.
  • Storage Management: Drive health checks, alerts, and overwrite control help prevent data loss.
  • Firmware Update Tool: Keep security and features current with guided updates.
  • Access Control Integration: Correlate badge events with synchronized video for better investigations.

SureVision NVR & PoE IP Cameras — FAQs

What is a SureVision NVR, and does it work with PoE cameras?
A SureVision NVR records and manages IP cameras locally with no monthly fees. Pair it with PoE security cameras for single-cable power & data. Use an NVR with built-in PoE ports or a separate PoE switch for larger racks. Browse SureVision IP Cameras.
Do I need a monthly subscription?
No. Recording stays on your NVR. The mobile/desktop apps for remote viewing are included—no monthly fees.
Can I view cameras remotely without putting cameras on Wi-Fi?
Yes. Cameras connect via Ethernet (PoE) to your NVR/network. Remote viewing works securely over the internet for phones, tablets, and PCs—no camera Wi-Fi required.
How far can I run PoE for cameras, and what cable should I use?
Standard PoE runs up to 328 ft (100 m) per Ethernet segment using Cat5e/Cat6. For longer distances, use PoE extenders, fiber uplinks, or intermediate switches. Choose outdoor-rated/direct-burial cable for exterior runs.
Can I mix bullet, dome, PTZ, fisheye, and LPR cameras?
Absolutely. SureVision systems support mixed camera styles and resolutions. Start with bullets/dom es for general coverage and add PTZ, fisheye, or LPR where needed. Shop the lineup: SureVision IP Cameras.
How long will my system store video?
Retention depends on resolution (e.g., 4K vs 1080p), frame rate, number of cameras, and whether you record 24/7 or motion-only. Choose a larger HDD or use motion/AI recording to extend retention.
Are SureVision cameras NDAA/ONVIF compliant?
SureVision IP cameras are commonly listed as NDAA compliant and support ONVIF for broad compatibility. See current models: SureVision IP Cameras.
Should I choose a PoE NVR or use a separate PoE switch?
A PoE NVR offers plug-and-play camera ports right on the recorder—great for simple installs. A PoE switch is ideal for closets/racks and longer runs, feeding a non-PoE NVR over uplink. Both approaches are common and supported. Explore NVRs: SureVision IP Recorders.
