A DVR is the recorder analogue cameras connect to over coaxial cable; it digitises the picture inside the unit. An NVR is the recorder IP cameras connect to over network cable; the picture is compressed in the camera and arrives over the network. For new installations NVR plus IP cameras is the standard: higher resolution, one cable with PoE, network access to each camera. Where analogue cabling exists, a DVR or hybrid unit can continue to be used. Recording time depends on disk capacity, camera count, resolution and motion detection; disks should be surveillance-grade and the recorder on a UPS. Remote viewing should use a secure connection, not direct exposure of the unit to the internet.

In camera projects we size the recorder by camera count and required retention days, separate the camera network with a VLAN and set up phone viewing over a secure connection.
