Dahua XVR1B16 16-Channel FHD HDCVI XVR Recorder

Dahua 16-Channel FHD XVR

The Dahua XVR1B16 16-Channel XVR consolidates sixteen coax camera feeds into one desktop recorder. Each BNC input accepts HDCVI, AHD, TVI, or CVBS cameras at Full HD resolution. A single SATA interface supports hard drives up to 16TB for extended on-premise retention on larger sites.

Local operators use HDMI or VGA outputs for wall-mounted security displays. Network access over RJ45 enables remote live monitoring and clip export from Dahua client applications. Two USB ports provide mouse input and optional file backup. Two-way audio is available when paired cameras and cabling support inbound and outbound sound.

Sixteen channels address medium retail chains and light industrial floors without deploying multiple recorders. Channel grouping and custom views organize cameras by zone in the local UI. Alarm inputs and relay outputs integrate with door contacts and sirens when the site requires unified event response.

The 16TB storage ceiling supports longer retention than six-terabyte models when all channels record continuously at FHD bitrates. Size the HDD during design to meet regulatory or insurance retention minimums. SMART status reporting through the recorder UI alerts staff before drive failure causes archive gaps.

Mixed-protocol operation lets security managers retain CVBS cameras at exits while upgrading interior domes to HDCVI incrementally. Bandwidth on the LAN stays modest because video stays on coax until encoded inside the XVR. Remote clients receive sub-streams scaled for mobile bandwidth when configured in the network menu.
