CCTV DVR Systems

If you still have a CCTV DVR system in the mid 2020s you're a bit of a legend! This is really old school technology these days and it might just be time to take a nervous peek at the latest stuff.

These older DVR systems were for analog cameras which really means low resolution and pretty dumb.

Why spend hours, or even days searching for footage that is so bad it'd make a grown man cry anyway?

If you still use a dial phone and a fax machine - have at it I say!

Otherwise join the rest of us with a nice new IP system with a bit of AI to help you along.  The image quality is incredible and you can get the system to help you find what you're looking for in no time.

How do I know if I have a CCTV-DVR system?  Great question!  On the back of the recorder you'll see connectors like this:

DVR BNC Connectors

You won't see those on a modern NVR (network video recorder) because they're old hat now.  NVRs will have network ports, or maybe even just one network port.  Nice!

Honestly this old analog stuff is a nightmare compared to IP.  So many more hassles with connections, interefernce, power problems and so many fittings - and all to  get a vastly inferior result.

But hey, I'm a bit nostagic so I'll leave the rest of teh page here just in case anybody is still rockinga 66 series DVR.

Like I say, if you are, and it's meeting your needs today - you are a legend in my books!
