Hikvision DS-7100HGHI-F1/N Series Turbo HD DVR

The Hikvision DS-7100HGHI-F1/N Series is a versatile Turbo HD DVR family designed for surveillance systems that need compatibility with HDTVI, AHD, HDCVI, CVBS, and IP cameras. Available in 4-, 8-, and 16-channel configurations, the series supports H.264+/H.264 compression, 1080p Lite recording, HDMI/VGA output, remote network access, and up to 6 TB of storage on a single SATA hard drive.

Its multi-format camera support makes it especially useful when upgrading an existing analog surveillance system or building a mixed-camera installation without being limited to a single video technology.
