The sixteen-port PoE commercial recorder, for larger Alarm.com camera deployments. Same closed platform as the rest of the range.
Selora does not recommend this device
A stream video recorder is the storage half of Alarm.com's closed video platform. It records only Alarm.com cameras, is administered from the Alarm.com account rather than on the box, and exposes no share, no ONVIF, and no export that another system can read.
An NVR is the one piece of a video system that ought to be neutral: cameras come and go, and the recordings should outlive both the cameras and the monitoring contract. These do not. Because the recorder is bound to the account, ending the Alarm.com relationship ends access to the footage already on the client's own hardware. We specify Frigate on the client's server, or a VMS that speaks ONVIF, so the archive stays readable whoever is monitoring it.
- Frigate on the client's own server, recording ONVIF cameras to local storage
- Any ONVIF-compatible NVR where the client wants an appliance rather than a server
Sixteen PoE ports for a larger site, otherwise the same platform as the eight-port ADC-CSVR2108P.
At this size the lock-in gets expensive to unwind. Sixteen cameras, their cabling, and months of recordings all move together or not at all, which is worth saying out loud to a client before the first camera goes up rather than at renewal.
