QuestionWhat does NVR mean? I know about DVR but what is NVR?
Asked 2 years ago by SID.
This question was asked about the related product: Swann - Master Series Home 8-Channel 4-Camera 4K UHD Indoor/Outdoor PoE Wired, 2TB HDD NVR Security Surveillance System - Black
- Answer Hi Sid. NVR stands for Network Video Recorder. This means the entire system is digital and there are Ethernet cables between each camera and the recorder. A DVR system uses analog coax cables instead. NVR systems generally offer more features and better video quality. -SD, Swann Team

QuestionWhat is the maximum distance you can zoom without losing image quality?
Asked 2 years ago by Mario.
This question was asked about the related product: Swann - Master Series Home 8-Channel 4-Camera 4K UHD Indoor/Outdoor PoE Wired, 2TB HDD NVR Security Surveillance System - Black
- Answer Hi Mario. The cameras in this kit offer Digital Zoom (using whatever pixels are already in the image) rather than Optical Zoom (where the lens physically moves). With digital zoom the image quality will reduce the further you zoom in, but as you're starting with 4K to begin with you should be able to zoom in 4-8x and still see most things clearly. -SD, Swann Team

QuestionWill this connect through WiFi, to see on my iPhone. I have Starlink cause I’m in a rural area and don’t have a router.
Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Thanks for your question. The NVR should be connected to a router via network cable if you wish to give it an internet connection to be able to view it remotely on your phone. You can also view an NVR locally on a monitor without any internet connection at all if you prefer. In our experience, Starlink routers can be unreliable with an NVR as NVRs require a stable and constant internet connection. Starlink routers jump across satellites frequently & as a result can experience small dropouts. So whilst you may be able to get the NVR to work with Starlink, it may not be the best experience. - SD, Swann Team

QuestionI have a couple cameras that will be over the 328' recommended for POE to work. Am I able to use a POE network switch with this system to increase the length of the runs to make those cameras functional?
Asked 2 years ago by Mike.
This question was asked about the related product: Swann - Master Series 8-Channel 8 Camera, 4K UHD Indoor/Outdoor PoE Wired 2TB HDD NVR Security Surveillance System - Black
- Answer Hi Mike. Yes, you can put a switch at every 330ft of cable and keep extending the cable length if you need to. If you only want to go a bit beyond 330ft then it's worth giving it a try without the switch first, there is still a good chance it will work as the cameras do not require huge bandwidth. -SD, Swann team

QuestionWhat happens when the NVR is full? Is the old recorded footage automatically overwritten with the new ones?
Asked 2 years ago by TNJD.
This question was asked about the related product: Swann - Master Series 8-Channel 8 Camera, 4K UHD Indoor/Outdoor PoE Wired 2TB HDD NVR Security Surveillance System - Black
- Answer Hello TNJD. This will vary depending on your recording settings. You can set your recorder to record over older files once full or wait for you to clear space manually. Alternatively, you can upload footage from up to 2 cameras & still images from all cameras to your Dropbox account in the cloud. In this case, even if your recorder was stolen you'll have video evidence off-site. Hope that helps. LV - Swann Team
