A Network Video Recorder (NVR) is a device that records video in a digital format to a disk drive, USB flash drive, SD memory card or other mass storage device. An NVR contains no dedicated video capture hardware. However, the software is typically run on a dedicated device, usually with an embedded operating system. Alternatively, to help support increased functionality and serviceability, standard operating systems are used with standard processors and video management software. An NVR is typically deployed in an IP video surveillance system.

Network video recorders are distinct from digital video recorders (DVR) as their input is from a network rather than a direct connection to a video capture card or tuner. Video on a DVR is encoded and processed at the DVR, while video on an NVR is encoded and processed at the camera, then streamed to the NVR for storage or remote viewing.  Additional processing may be done at the NVR, such as further compression or tagging with meta data.

Hybrid NVR/DVR surveillance systems exist which incorporate functions of both NVR and DVR; these are considered a form of NVR.

NVR home surveillance systems are generally wireless, tend to be easy to set up, can be accessed through a web browser, and allow the user to be notified by email if an alarm is triggered.

Over five years of investigation and ongoing effort, FARADrp`s experts and specialists have been able to design and produce the company`s own product, suitable for CCTV systems, called NVR, “F.I.S (FARAD Intelligent System)”. In adapting it to cover any type of CCTV project need and in different scales, shapes and performances, based on individual project requirements, it could be one of the greatest solutions for CCTV storage and Intelligent Video Management. According to the company policy, the package of hardware and video management services (VMS) is the leading CCTV system in meeting customer requirements.
