When ordering multiple Keyed Alike locks, only 1 set of keys are provided as all additional locks are made to work from that key.

If ordering 4 or more keyed alike locks you can have them set up as different groups. If Required: Let us know the details in the "Specific Key Requirements" field above.

Each group of locks will then receive keys.

Your cameras. A dedicated screen. With DC power.

NVR HDC adds an HDMI monitor connection to Ajax recording. Keep a local view at reception or a desk, with recordings also accessible in the Ajax apps.

A screen where you need it. An app when you are away.

Connect a monitor through HDMI and use USB peripherals for local video management. The H series outputs Full HD (1920 x 1080); that is separate from the resolution of the camera recordings.

Review the sequence. Not isolated clips.

Play back cameras together to follow an event from one viewpoint to another. Filter the archive by date or supported event type, then export the relevant footage to a USB drive. Ajax digitally signs supported exports, and Ajax Media Player can check whether a file has been modified.

Stay informed about the recorder.

Check recorder status and configure it through Ajax apps. Hard-drive monitoring can alert you to problems such as overheating, so an unnoticed storage fault does not simply become a missing recording later. User permissions separately control access to streams, recordings and settings.

Ajax recorder supervision and remote status

Bring supported cameras together.

ONVIF Profile G and S and RTSP provide connections to compatible third-party cameras alongside Ajax video devices. Pixel-based motion detection can define recording areas, while available AI filters depend on the connected camera. An ONVIF connection does not automatically provide all of a camera manufacturer's proprietary features.

The right recorder. For the way you use it.

Compare this recorder with the alternatives below. Match camera capacity, screen connections, recording storage and power to your installation. You need one suitable recorder for this role, not all of them. Hard drives are supplied separately.

Only the PoE-equipped H2D models power compatible wired cameras directly. Other versions need a separate PoE switch, injectors or the camera's specified power supply.

Room for a useful archive.

The H series supports one compatible SATA hard drive, up to 16 TB. The retaining latch makes fitting straightforward. Required storage depends on camera count, recording quality and retention time.

Your whole property. In one view.

See the front door, driveway and garden together instead of opening each camera in turn. Arrange the Ajax video wall around the views that matter to you, and check them from a compatible phone, computer or TV app.

Separate the three jobs. Network, power and recording.

NVR HDC HDMI Network Video Recorder uses 12 V DC. It records network camera streams but has no PoE camera-power ports. Connect cameras through suitable network equipment and power them separately. The hard drive is supplied separately; a hub is only needed for the associated alarm functions, not basic video recording.

This manufacturer diagram shows video and network communication, not a physical power-wiring plan. Installation requirements depend on the exact equipment.

Ajax video communication diagram. Network links are shown; separate power wiring is not.

Build around it. Real products. The right connections.

These are compatible camera choices and separately supplied power options. Use one suitable switch to power wired PoE cameras; it does not power the recorder itself. IndoorCam and DoorBell have their own power arrangements.

Ajax TurretCam IP Camera

A compact wired camera with intelligent detection and infrared night vision. Model options combine 5 MP or 8 MP resolution with a fixed lens, in black or white.

Ajax BulletCam IP Camera

Ajax DomeCam Mini IP Camera

A low-profile dome camera with intelligent detection, True WDR and infrared illumination.

Ajax IndoorCam Wi-Fi Camera

Uniview 4-Port Gigabit Cloud Managed PoE Switch

A compact four-camera network switch with Gigabit connections, a 65W PoE budget and web or cloud management.

Uniview 8-Port Gigabit Cloud Managed PoE Switch

Eight Gigabit PoE camera connections with a 120W shared power budget, web management and copper or SFP uplinks.

Uniview 16-Port Gigabit Cloud Managed PoE Switch

A 16-camera Gigabit PoE switch with a 250W shared budget and web or cloud control for larger surveillance installations.

Reyee 16-Port Gigabit Smart Cloud Managed PoE Switch

Sixteen Gigabit PoE+ ports, a 250W shared budget and Reyee cloud controls for a larger camera network.

What you need. Fitting and setup.

Before installation

A suitable DC supply for the exact recorder model. Check its input range and power rating rather than assuming a camera power adapter will work.
An Ethernet connection to the router or network switch.
A compatible recording drive, supplied separately. Fit and secure it inside the recorder with the power disconnected.
Separate power for the cameras: for PoE cameras, plan Cat6 runs to a suitable PoE switch or injector. This recorder has no camera PoE outputs.
For local viewing, add a compatible HDMI display and cable; a USB mouse can provide local control. These are optional alongside app access.

Fitting and setup

Place the recorder securely with ventilation space, connect it to the same network as the cameras, then add it to the Ajax app. Add the cameras, configure storage and recording schedules, and test playback and user permissions before handover.

Allow for the recorder, drive and camera power equipment together when planning backup power.

Powering the cameras, not the recorder

For wired PoE cameras, the Uniview switches provide 4, 8 or 16 powered ports; the 16-port Reyee is another managed option. Connect the switch's network uplink to the same network as the recorder. Match powered-port count and the shared PoE budget to the cameras, allowing for their maximum demand rather than treating channel capacity as a power rating.

These switches power compatible Ethernet cameras, not the recorder itself, IndoorCam or DoorBell. The recorder still needs its own specified supply. Keep networking equipment indoors with ventilation space.

FAQs

Do not assume one is included. Check the individual listing and ordered configuration. A compatible drive is needed for local archive recording unless the recorder is supplied with one fitted.

No. HDMI is available on supported H-series models; the original NVR family is managed through Ajax apps. Confirm the output and supported display resolution for the exact recorder.

No. The recorder must itself have suitable PoE ports. Otherwise, a compatible PoE switch or injector is required. A camera's PoE capability and a recorder's PoE capability are separate specifications.

Compatibility depends on the camera, recorder and supported protocols. Ajax supports ONVIF and RTSP integration on applicable devices, but protocol support does not guarantee every camera feature or event is available.

This family includes eight- and sixteen-channel models. Channel capacity is the number of camera streams the recorder supports; allow room for any planned expansion.

No. This recorder has no PoE output ports. Use an appropriate PoE switch or injector for PoE cameras, or their supported separate power supply.

A compatible hard drive is required separately. Check Ajax compatibility, recording quality and retention requirements before selecting its capacity.

Local recording and viewing can continue through an internet interruption, subject to setup and equipment. Ajax requires cameras connected through its NVR to contact Ajax Cloud at least once every 30 days for continued offline operation. Remote access needs internet connectivity; this is not a permanently air-gapped system.

Yes. The H series has an HDMI output at up to Full HD (1920 x 1080), plus two USB ports for peripherals. Recorded camera resolution and monitor output resolution are different specifications.

Focus on the approach. Keep the detail.

BulletCam makes the direction of your surveillance clear. Its adjustable mount helps frame a driveway, side passage or entrance, with the live view and recordings available in the Ajax app.

Light and shade. In the same picture.

True WDR balances bright and dark parts of a scene. At a sunlit entrance it helps keep a person visible rather than losing their face in shadow. Smart IR adjusts infrared illumination at night to reduce overexposure when someone approaches.

The range includes 5 MP and 8 MP cameras with a fixed 2.8 mm or 4 mm lens. Resolution determines recorded detail; the lens changes the width of the view. These are different model choices, not an adjustable optical zoom.
