16-Channel Multi-Format DVR

The Eyemax EX SDI Magic DVR records up to 16 channels using H.265 compression and includes a 2 TB hard drive. It accepts EX-SDI, HD-SDI, HD-TVI, HD-CVI and 960H analogue cameras with automatic detection. Two SATA bays support up to 12 TB total storage. The unit also records up to 4 IP cameras alongside the coaxial inputs.

Suits hybrid coaxial and IP installs

Installers upgrading legacy analogue or HD-SDI systems can keep existing cabling while adding up to 4 IP streams. The recorder is not for sites that need more than 4 IP channels or more than 12 TB of internal storage. Buyers requiring pure IP NVR scaling or larger drive bays should consider a dedicated network recorder instead.

Dual CODEC engine for independent streams

A dual CODEC engine handles live view and recording streams separately, so playback and remote access do not degrade main recording performance. This architecture supports real-time 1080p pentaplex operation across all 16 channels. It is the specification that determines whether the recorder meets simultaneous multi-stream demands.

Questions about this item

How does the 16-channel capacity work when I connect cameras?

The recorder handles sixteen analogue or EX-SDI channels plus up to four IP cameras, recording all of them simultaneously at up to 1080p resolution.

What does the H.265 encoding actually limit on this unit?

H.265 compression reduces storage needs for the 2 TB drive, but total recording time still depends on the resolution, frame rate and quality settings chosen for each channel.

What do I need to install the two SATA drives this recorder supports?

Two internal 3.5-inch SATA hard drives, each up to 6 TB, giving a maximum of 12 TB; the chassis includes the required mounting brackets and data cables.
