16-Channel DVR & NVR Recorders
This range covers 16-channel recorders spanning both DVR (analogue/HD-TVI/hybrid) and NVR (PoE IP) architectures, from 1080p through to 8MP and 4K/8K-class models.
What's in the range
- HD-TVI / hybrid DVRs: Hikvision 5MP and 1080p 1U H.265 AcuSense models, the Hikvision iDS-7216HQHI-M1/S, Dahua's EZ-IP XVR1B16-I (4MP Penta-brid), and PROLUX's PXD-8216-HYK4MP, listed as a like-for-like equivalent to the Hikvision DS-7216HQHI-K1.
- PoE NVRs: Hikvision's 1U 16 PoE 4K and 8K NVRs, the Hikvision 16-ch PoE 1U K Series AcuSense 4K NVR, ANNKE's 12MP PoE H.265+ NVR with 4K HDMI output, and the Prolux PXN-5216-16P-4KS2E 8MP ePoE NVR.
- An unbranded 5MP hybrid DVR is also included.
How to choose
- Camera type on site: analogue/HD-TVI cameras need a DVR (or Penta-brid hybrid); IP cameras need an NVR with built-in PoE ports if you want single-cable installs.
- Resolution ceiling: check the recorder's stated maximum (1080p, 4MP, 5MP, 8MP, 4K, 8K) matches or exceeds your camera resolution.
- Output: several models specify 4K HDMI output for monitor/wall display regardless of recording resolution.
- Cross-compatibility: the PROLUX PXD-8216 is positioned as a direct Hikvision DS-7216HQHI-K1 equivalent — useful for matching an existing estate.
- PoE port count: PoE NVRs in this range provide 16 ports, matching the channel count for direct camera connection without a separate switch.
16CH — frequently asked questions
What's the difference between the DVR and NVR models in this range?
DVRs here handle analogue/HD-TVI (and Penta-brid hybrid) camera signals over coax, while NVRs are PoE-based and connect IP cameras directly, often powering them through the same cable.
Can I match a new recorder to my existing Hikvision cameras?
The PROLUX PXD-8216-HYK4MP is listed as a like-for-like equivalent to the Hikvision DS-7216HQHI-K1, which may help when replacing or expanding an existing Hikvision setup.
