ACTi PCMOD-PC65-SMU Intel I5 Six-Core PC Module
Overview
The ACTi PCMOD-PC65-SMU is a processor module housing an Intel I5 six-core CPU designed as a drop-in upgrade or replacement component for ACTi OPS surveillance-grade NVR chassis. This module solves the problem of aging or undersized compute capacity in existing ACTi recorder deployments — rather than replacing the entire NVR, you swap the module to extend service life and gain additional processing headroom for analytics, transcoding, and multi-stream playback.
Compatibility
This module is engineered for ACTi OPS PC-series NVR platforms and compatible chassis that accept the OPS form-factor card. Confirm your specific NVR model's technical documentation before ordering — not all ACTi recorder variants support field-swappable processor modules. The module handles the core processing load for video ingest, storage management, and client connections across multiple recording streams.
Installation Notes
Module installation requires powering down the NVR, removing the existing processor card, and seating the PCMOD-PC65-SMU into the designated processor slot. Ensure the system is de-energized and grounded before handling internal components. Once inserted, the module should be fully secured and the NVR powered on to allow BIOS detection and any required firmware initialization. Consult your NVR's installation manual for exact slot location, retention clip operation, and POST verification steps.
