i-PRO NVR-R-2-500TB-V7 Enterprise Rack-Mount NVR
The i-PRO NVR-R-2-500TB-V7 is an enterprise-grade, 2U rack-mount Network Video Recorder engineered for large-scale IP surveillance deployments. Built on dual Intel Xeon Silver processors with 64GB of system RAM and 500TB of integrated storage, this platform delivers the performance and capacity required for sustained high-throughput video recording, real-time analytics processing, and extended multi-year retention across campus, municipal, critical infrastructure, and multi-site enterprise environments.
Key Features
- Dual Intel Xeon Silver processors (12-core/24-thread each) for parallel multi-stream processing
- 64GB system RAM for high-concurrency workloads and metadata indexing
- 500TB native storage capacity for extended retention periods
- 2U rack-mount form factor for data center and server room integration
- Windows Server 2025 Standard Edition pre-installed
- Concurrent multi-stream ingest with responsive search and playback
- Support for hundreds to thousands of simultaneous camera feeds
- Integrated edge analytics offload capability
Technical Highlights
The dual-processor architecture provides the computational headroom required for sustained ingest from multiple high-bitrate video streams while simultaneously running analytics workloads and maintaining responsive database operations. The 64GB memory configuration ensures smooth handling of metadata indexing, concurrent user sessions, and real-time event detection without performance bottlenecks. The 500TB storage subsystem supports continuous recording at enterprise scale while preserving fast search and playback performance across the entire retention window.
Pre-configured with Windows Server 2025 Standard Edition, the platform integrates seamlessly into existing enterprise IT infrastructure, supporting standard Windows ecosystem tools and security protocols. The rack-mount chassis enables efficient space utilization in data centers and server rooms serving large surveillance deployments.
Ideal Applications
- Large campus and university security operations
- Municipal and city-wide surveillance networks
- Critical infrastructure protection (utilities, transportation, industrial)
- Multi-site enterprise deployments with centralized management
- High-volume retail and hospitality chains
- Government and law enforcement facilities

The NVR-R-2-500TB-V7 is purpose-built for organizations requiring industrial-strength video recording infrastructure. The dual Xeon Silver configuration delivers the processing density needed to handle complex analytics pipelines—motion detection, object classification, anomaly flagging—without sacrificing recording performance. The 500TB capacity represents a significant investment in retention, enabling 6–24 month lookback periods depending on camera count and bitrate.
Organizations should evaluate their camera count, average bitrate per stream, and desired retention period to confirm capacity fit. The Windows Server foundation appeals to enterprises with existing Microsoft ecosystems, though it also introduces standard Windows patching and licensing considerations that IT teams must plan for.
