I-pro SR3E-C 2U Dual Xeon Octa Core CPU WIN - NVR-R-2-96TB-V2

i-PRO NVR-R-2-96TB-V2 2U Rackmount Network Video Recorder

Overview

The i-PRO NVR-R-2-96TB-V2 is a 2U rackmount recorder built around dual Xeon octa-core processors running Windows, designed for large-scale enterprise installations managing dozens of concurrent IP camera streams. The 96TB internal storage handles extended retention—weeks to months depending on resolution and frame rate—without external SAN dependency, a critical advantage for mission-critical facilities with data residency constraints or air-gapped network segments. Windows OS enables native integration with Active Directory, SIEM platforms, and custom analytics workflows that rely on Windows APIs or COM interfaces—valuable if your security operations center already runs Windows-centric tools and wants to avoid multi-OS management overhead.

Compatibility

The NVR-R-2-96TB-V2 accepts any ONVIF-compliant IP camera via Gigabit Ethernet or 10GbE ingest. Direct integration with i-PRO camera families (WV-series, SNC-series) is native. Vendor-neutral ONVIF Profile S/T streaming covers Axis, Hikvision, Dahua, and other standards-compliant devices without vendor lock-in. Windows-based OS integrates with enterprise Active Directory for user authentication, SIEM aggregation, and custom analytics pipelines—a real benefit if your SOC already depends on Windows infrastructure. Supports H.265 and H.264 encoding for flexible codec negotiation with downstream recording or transcoding workflows.

Installation Notes

Dual Xeon architecture requires sufficient rack cooling and dedicated 240V or 480V three-phase power (exact specifications depend on configuration). The 2U form factor occupies four rack units in a standard 19-inch cabinet. Network ingest via sustained multi-stream ingestion may require 10GbE uplink ports or bonded Gigabit links to prevent bottlenecking at the switch. Windows OS requires periodic security patching and compliance with your organization's image-hardening standards—coordinate with IT security for endpoint protection policies and firmware update schedules. Verify rack power distribution and thermal capacity before installation.
