i-PRO WJ-NX400/36000T4 64-Channel Network Video Recorder
Overview
The WJ-NX400/36000T4 is a 64-channel network video recorder with 36TB pre-installed storage designed for large-scale enterprise and commercial surveillance deployments. This model centralizes recording from up to 64 IP cameras, consolidates multi-site storage demands, and delivers concurrent playback and live monitoring across organizations with extensive surveillance footprints. The unit supports both H.265 and H.264 compression to manage storage efficiency — H.265 cuts storage consumption roughly in half compared to H.264 under identical scene conditions, a meaningful gain when recording 24/7 across dozens of high-resolution streams. The WJ-NX400/36000T4 addresses the core challenge of large-scale recording: balancing channel density, storage capacity, and network throughput in a single rack-mountable chassis.
Compatibility
The WJ-NX400/36000T4 integrates with i-PRO IP cameras and third-party ONVIF-compliant cameras. It connects via standard Gigabit Ethernet network interfaces (1 Gbps), allowing deployment into existing IT infrastructure without specialized cabling. Supports ONVIF Profile S, enabling broad camera ecosystem compatibility. Video management software integration depends on your installed VMS platform — verify compatibility with your existing system before deployment, as not all VMS platforms support 64-channel configurations at full frame rate without performance degradation. The unit is backward-compatible with legacy IP cameras supporting standard network protocols.
Installation Notes
The WJ-NX400/36000T4 requires standard 19-inch rack space and dedicated power delivery — confirm your facility's power supply capacity and UPS coverage before installation. Gigabit Ethernet backhaul is mandatory for multi-camera streaming; a single 1 Gbps network link may experience bandwidth constraints at full 64-camera load depending on resolution and frame rate — plan for network segmentation or aggregated links if streaming all channels simultaneously at 4K or 30 fps. The 36TB pre-installed storage is not field-expandable on most configurations — verify expansion options before purchase if higher capacity is anticipated. Ensure adequate cooling and ventilation; confirm rack environment meets manufacturer thermal specifications.
