Eight channels

An eight-channel recorder fits focused home and small-business systems when the final camera count is comfortably below eight.

Sixteen and thirty-two channels

Sixteen channels provides room for many small commercial sites. Thirty-two channels becomes practical for larger buildings, parking areas, multiple entrances, and phased projects.

Avoid a zero-growth design

  • Reserve channels for future blind spots.
  • Plan storage for the cameras you expect to add.
  • Document cable paths during the first installation.
