LTS LTD8508K-ST / LTD8516K-ST Turbo HD DVR

The LTS LTD8508K-ST and LTD8516K-ST are professional hybrid Turbo HD DVRs designed for surveillance systems that need flexibility, high-resolution recording, large storage capacity, and support for both analog and IP cameras.

With support for HDTVI, AHD, HDCVI, CVBS and IP video, these recorders make it easier to upgrade an existing coaxial surveillance system while adding newer high-resolution IP cameras when needed. H.265 Pro+ compression helps improve encoding efficiency and reduce storage requirements, while dual SATA bays support up to 10 TB per drive.

The LTD8508K-ST supports 8 analog channels and up to 16 IP camera channels, while the LTD8516K-ST supports 16 analog channels and up to 32 IP camera channels. Both models support IP cameras up to 8 MP resolution.
