Avigilon APP-3100-240-BT Cloud-Managed Video Storage Appliance
The APP-3100-240-BT is the 240TB configuration of Avigilon's Alta A3100 storage appliance, built for sites consolidating recording from a large camera count onto a single rack-mounted unit rather than sprawling across multiple recorders. With 240TB of net storage and support for up to 200 cameras, it targets mid-to-large facilities — distribution centers, multi-building campuses, retail portfolios — where centralizing retention simplifies both cabling and management overhead. Dual 10Gb BaseT network ports mean the appliance can separate camera-facing ingest traffic from client/VMS query traffic, or be teamed for throughput and failover, which matters once you're pulling live views and export jobs from 150+ streams against the same box.
Compatibility
The A3100 is built for the Avigilon Alta cloud-managed platform and is intended to pair with Alta-series cameras as the on-prem storage tier in a hybrid cloud/edge deployment — cameras stream to the appliance while Alta's cloud layer handles management, alerting, and remote access. It is not a generic ONVIF NVR; plan your camera procurement around the Alta ecosystem rather than mixing in unrelated third-party lines. For sites scaling past 200 cameras or beyond 240TB, look at additional A3100 units or a higher-capacity Alta appliance in the same family rather than overloading one box.
Installation Notes
This is a rack-mount appliance requiring rack space, structured cabling to both 10Gb BaseT ports, and rack power. Confirm switch-side 10Gb copper support before install — running only one link limits you to single-path throughput and removes the failover benefit of the second port. Plan power and network drops during NVR and storage rack design so the unit lands within cable-run limits of your core switch.
What's in the Box
- 1x Avigilon Alta A3100 appliance (240TB net storage configuration)
- Power cables
Storage sizing and camera-count headroom should be part of any storage and retention planning pass before committing to a single-appliance design, and worth reviewing against your PoE switch topology if cameras and the A3100 share uplinks. The included 5-year warranty on the APP-3100-240-BT is a meaningful factor for total cost of ownership on a component that's expensive to swap once it's racked and populated with drives.
