D-Link’s DNR-F4108PE Professional Network Video Recorder (NVR) offers a comprehensive video display, storage, and management solution. DNR-F4108PE NVR provides reliable high  quality  remote monitoring functionality that is much more cost-effective than conventional surveillance systems.

D-Link’s intuitive GUI interface simplifies viewing live and recorded video from the NVR. The camera status page shows connection and recording status, along with frame rate and bit rate information for each camera. Users are provided with a variety of options for viewing and organizing camera footage on-screen. For a system with multiple channels, users can simply click cameras to view live video. Camera names and recording status are displayed via OSD (On Screen Display) to aid in identification. Presets from within the interface can be set to instantly restore a previously saved view. A single camera may be viewed full screen. Users can control pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) functions from interface using provided interface buttons.

A clear single-page interface assists with configuration including compression, resolution and frame rate for connected cameras. The NVR records video up to 8 network cameras simultaneously. Once cameras have been set up, a highly configurable scheduling system allows for continuous recording / Schedule recording or Event based recording. Each camera can be set to record independently at preset intervals. The NVR can be configured to overwrite the oldest data automatically when HDD space runs out, allowing for continuous and uninterrupted recording.

Complete video management and the ability to playback and record new video simultaneously, the DNR-F4108PE is an extremely convenient and effective video recorder. D Link NVR ensures the security and integrity of IP camera footage. Administrators may filter external connections to the NVR by IP address- for limiting access and thus increasing security. Recorded data is stored in a secure database. This recorded data can be backed on any local PC hard disk

The D-Link NVR takes advantage of existing network architecture, using features such as PPPoE services. The NVR can acquire an IP address from a DHCP server to become easily searchable during installation. Dynamic DNS is supported for systems operating without a fixed IP address. The NVR can then be accessed from the Internet using an easy-to remember domain name provided by the DDNS service. Maintaining an accurate record of time is essential if recorded data is to be used as evidence. To ensure that the recorded time is always accurate, the NVR has RTC to update the system clock from an Internet server using the Network Time Protocol (NTP).

The NVR centrally controls the e-mail notifications, and recording for all the connected cameras. Input triggered from camera events can additionally be monitored. These events will be logged, with notifications via e-mail. Users can set up multiple contact lists for event notification. A straightforward logging system organizes events by date for easy recall.
