About the 5 Megapixel 8 Channel DVR with 1 HDD Slot
For a standard Lahore house that has outgrown 1080P, this sits in the middle of the range and is usually the right answer. Eight analog channels take TVI, AHD or CVI cameras at up to 5MP, and four IP channels are available at the same resolution for network cameras added later. Pentaplex operation means it keeps recording while you review yesterday's footage and copy a clip to USB. The single drive bay is the point to think through, because eight 5MP feeds consume space quickly.
Key benefits
- Eight analog channels at up to 5MP for detail beyond what 1080P recorders manage
- Four IP channels at 5MP, double the IP headroom of the smaller units here
- Pentaplex working keeps live view, recording, playback and backup running together
- H.265 high-profile compression offsets part of the storage demand of 5MP recording
- Eight channels replay at once when tracing movement through a property
- Remote access through web, CMS and the Android and iOS mobile apps

Frequently asked questions
Should I choose this over the 2MP eight-channel model?
Choose 5MP where detail matters at a distance, such as a gate camera covering a driveway, or where you expect to zoom into recorded footage. The 2MP unit is adequate where cameras sit close to what they watch and storage is tight. We are glad to compare the two against your specific layout on WhatsApp.
How many IP cameras can I add?
Four IP channels are supported at up to 5MP, alongside the eight analog inputs. That is more headroom than the four- and eight-channel 2MP units in the same family, which is often the deciding factor when a site is being modernised gradually.
What size hard disk should I fit?
That follows from camera count, resolution, whether recording is continuous or motion-triggered, and how many days you want kept. Eight 5MP channels recording continuously fill a drive far faster than the same count at 1080P. Give us those details on WhatsApp and we will recommend a size.
Does it need a special monitor?
It outputs 1080P, so any standard HDMI monitor or LED television at that resolution works for the live wall. The recording stays at the camera's own resolution regardless of which monitor you connect.
