Hanwha Techwin America, a global supplier of IP and analog video surveillance solutions, announced its new Pentabrid hybrid video recorders. Allowing both analog and IP cameras to connect to the same unit, Pentabrid recorders support a future-proof migration from analog to IP camera technologies when an organization is ready.
Available in 16, 8, and 4 channel configurations in resolutions up to 4K UHD, Hanwha Pentabrid recorders can convert any channel at any time between analog and IP with a simple software switch so there’s no additional investment needed. The Pentabrid line offers a familiar interface while accepting multiple camera brands and technologies—AHD/TVI/CVI(4K)/CVBS/IP(4K).
“We are proud to offer our first hybrid DVR/NVR Pentabrid recorders,” says Ray Cooke, Vice President – Products, Solutions, and Integration at Hanwha Techwin America. “This is a perfect fit for existing analog installations that want to make a safe investment in recorder technology without compromising their ability to migrate to new IP technology and the many benefits it can bring.”
