Description
The NVR5100 Series network video recorder (NVR) represents a new generation of flexibility and integration for network-based video system
recording. It is one of the recording components of Endura
®
, Pelco’s most advanced integrated video security system. The NVR represents the
state of the art in scalability, performance, expandability, and reliability. It is ideally suited for mission-critical, enterprise surveillance
applications.
The NVR5100 Series recorder is capable of continuous, scheduled, alarm/event, and motion recording. Pre- and post-alarm recording is also
available. All recording is fully programmable on a per-channel basis.
The unit includes EnduraStor
to maximize storage efficiency. EnduraStor improves upon traditional time-lapse recording to achieve longer video
retention. While time-lapse recording records everything at a low frame rate, EnduraStor records in real-time for a user-defined delay period.
During the delay period, all real-time, high frame rate video is available for search, playback, and export. After the delay period, EnduraStor
reduces video from a high frame rate to a lower frame rate. EnduraStor does not reduce alarm and event video.
Designed with reliability in mind, the NVR5100 Series provides performance enhancement and fault tolerance by employing RAID 5 disk
management across as many as 12 hard drives. The NVR incorporates two RAID 5 controllers, each managing six hard drives.
NOTE: The NVR5100 Series recorder supports hot-swappable hard drives in case of failure; it does not support hot hard drive expansion.
Dual redundant, hot-swappable power supplies add another layer of reliability to the unit. Support for matrix-enabled failover rounds out the
reliability aspects of the NVR5100. Diagnostics are systemized with other Endura products so that problems are reported to various network
infrastructure-monitoring systems.
The NVR5100 Series recorder is the network-based video recording system of the future. It integrates seamlessly with Pelco’s integrated security
products to create a robust, secure, and expandable security platform. When combined with Pelco’s Endura workstation and stand-alone user
interfaces, the NVR5100 Series becomes a powerful search, retrieval, and archival audio/video system. EnduraStor makes real-time video
available when users need it most while keeping storage costs under control.
