Networking equipment manufacturer, D-Link, has released its mydlink Network Video Recorder with HDMI Output (DNR-312L). Designed with small business owners in mind, the DNR-312L NVR allows users to keep a close eye on their businesses locally with a mouse and HD monitor, or remotely with a phone, tablet, or PC. Users can customize the security solution by mixing and matching up to nine D-Link network cameras, and can view, record, and play back footage from all nine cameras simultaneously.
With plug and play configuration, the DNR-312L automatically finds and records video and audio from D-Link network cameras and can be set to record continuously, on a schedule or based on motion. Its single storage bay accepts a hard drive up to 6TB in size, providing a recording retention period of 30 days or longer. A scheduled back-up function allows one or more camera recordings to be backed up to a USB drive, network storage, or an FTP server.
“The DNR-312L NVR is a great solution for restaurants, gas stations, liquor stores, and other small footprint retail locations,” says Vance Kozik, director of marketing for IP surveillance, D-Link Systems Inc. “The ability to plug the DNR-312L directly into a 1080p monitor and be able to view, play back and export video without the need for a computer makes this NVR an ideal solution for a small business. The 1080p monitor support also enables a store owner or manager to display live video so customers are aware of the store’s surveillance without having to dedicate additional resources.”
Users of the DNR-312L can view video via web browser, mobile app, and the native HDMI port. Additionally, the DNR-312L supports two independent streaming profiles from D-Link network cameras. One stream is high resolution to capture the important details. The second stream is lower resolution and is used for the nine-camera view and for mobile app use. Both streams are simultaneously recorded and available for playback.
Additional features of the DNR-312L include:
- Web browser client matches HDMI interface and supports most popular browsers
- Continuous, scheduled, or motion detection recording
- Two USB ports for mouse and optional storage back-up
- Pan/tilt/zoom controls for PTZ cameras
- E-Map function shows map of cameras with activity icons
- Drag and drop camera support for customizing viewing screen
- mydlink cloud service included
The DNR-312L is available now for a manufacturer’s suggested price of $349.99. D-Link is also offering a special promotion through Dec. 31, 2014, for more information, visit programs.dlink.com/FreeNVRpromotion.
