 ADVANCED FUNCTIONS

AHD, TVI, CVI up to 5MP
AHD, TVI and CVI  are the latest technologies in the analog CCTV industry. Although very similar to classic CVBS analog video, these new transmission standards get to higher video resolution.
Today's AHD/TVI/CVI cameras provide 2MP (Full HD 1080P), 3MP, 4MP and 5MP video resolution, like our best IP cameras.
AHD, TVI and CVI are very similar technologies, adopted by different manufacturers.
In 2014, DSE was one of the first companies in Europe introducing a full range of AHD DVR. From 2016 our DVR also support TVI and CVI to be compatible with other camera manufacturers. 
These high resolution analog CCTV systems provide high definition, without video latency, still being low cost and easy to install as standard analog systems.
Like any analog cameras, AHD/TVI/CVI cameras can be wired by normal coaxial, mini-coaxial or twisted pair cables up to several hundreds meters.

5 in 1 Multi-Technology - AHD, TVI, CVI, CVBS, IP
DN range DVR are multi-technology DVR because they are able to control different kind of cameras
These DVR can be connected to AHD,TVI and CVI cameras providing up to 5MP resolution according to the camera's capability, but are also suitable for old standard analog cameras (CVBS) that can be recorded at 960H resolution.
These DVR detects automatically the technology of the connected camera so they do not require any setting.
In addition, these DVR, can be converted in NVR, recording onvif  IP cameras up to 5MP video resolution.

  Main benefits

Selectable video technology
The rated number of channels of a multi-technology DVR refers to the BNC local inputs on the back of the device which are suitable for AHD, TVI, CVI and CVBS cameras.
If the DVR is used in IP mode, like NVR for IP cameras, the maximum number of channels is not depending on the video inputs, which are actually not used, but varies according to the camera's resolution.

High resolution up to 5 megapixel
DN Multi-Technology DVR change their video resolution according to the type of the camera connected to each channel.
If you connect normal analog CVBS cameras the DVR record video at 960H resolution (960x576 pixel) , the maximum allowed by this technology.
AHD,TVI,CVI cameras, the new trend of analogue CCTV,  are recorded at HD 720P resolution (1280x720 pixel), FullHD 1080P (1920x1080), 3MP (1920x1526),  4MP (2592x1520) and 5MP (2592x1920) depending on the camera.
When managing IP network cameras, DN DVR record video at HD 720P, Full HD 1080P, 3, 4 or 5 Megapixel.

ONVIF protocol
Although being DVR for local analog cameras, these videorecorders can be converted in NVR to manage IP network cameras. In this mode, local BNC inputs on the back panel are no used since all data flow through the Ethernet port.
These DVR/NVR fully support the ONVIF protocol for IP cameras (latest version 2.6) thus are suitable for any IP cameras using this standard.
ONVIF is a very important international standard in the IP video industry, resulting from the cooperation among the most important manufacturers.
DSE is one of the very few Italian companies being member of ONVIF (see ONVIF MEMBER LIST). Please note that only ONVIF members have the tools to test the full product compliance to the most updated ONVIF standards.  Please bear this in mind when you are choosing your IP surveillance provider.
