i-PRO NVR-RL-2-160TB-V5 Rack-Mount NVR
Overview
The NVR-RL-2-160TB-V5 is a 2U rack-mounted network video recorder purpose-built for large-scale IP surveillance deployments across enterprise campuses, hospitals, educational institutions, and government facilities. This unit delivers sustained high-throughput video ingest, real-time analytics processing, and extended archival retention — the right choice when you need a dedicated appliance handling hundreds of concurrent camera streams without latency or storage compromise.
Compatibility
The NVR-RL-2-160TB-V5 integrates with standard IP camera ecosystems supporting ONVIF protocol and H.265/H.264 streams. It is compatible with i-PRO camera lines and third-party ONVIF-compliant cameras from manufacturers including Axis, Hikvision, Hanwha, and Vivotek. The dual 10/100/1000Base-T network ports plus 10Gb SFP+ support connect to enterprise switches and PoE infrastructure; the platform runs Windows Server 2022 Standard Edition, enabling integration with video management systems (VMS) supporting ONVIF Profile S, industry-standard database backends, and metadata indexing. Verify camera model compatibility with i-PRO pre-sales engineering before final system design.
Installation Notes
Requires standard 19-inch rack with minimum 2U vertical space and 24 inches of depth. Dual hot-swappable power supplies eliminate single points of failure during maintenance; no downtime needed for PSU replacement. The 160TB storage subsystem supports RAID 1 and RAID 5 configurations — RAID 5 is standard for large multi-drive arrays to protect against single-drive failure. Network cabling must conform to Cat6A or better for 10Gb SFP+ connectivity. Ambient temperature range is critical: maintain 0°C to 35°C (32°F to 95°F) in the rack enclosure to preserve drive lifespan and CPU stability over sustained high-throughput recording cycles.
