5MP Kits — FAQs
What retention do kits in this range give?
Retention depends on drive size, camera count and recording resolution. Per TB, continuous, single camera: 5MP ≈ 46 days. Median for the range: 46 days. Every card carries the kit's own estimate; record on motion only for longer retention.
Channels vs cameras?
Channels = the cameras a recorder can take; cameras = what ships in the box. Recorders in the range run 4 to 16 channels. Spare channels mean expansion later without swapping the recorder.
What ships in the box?
A DVR plus matched cameras, cross-checked. Every kit in the range ships with an HDD. Full contents with model numbers are on each kit page.
5MP CCTV kits: fixed-lens turret and bullet systems with HD-TVI recorders
A 5MP kit pairs a set of fixed-lens turret or bullet cameras with a matching HD-TVI recorder and a pre-configured hard drive, so channel count, camera count and storage arrive as one matched bill of materials. This range spans 4, 8 and 16-channel kits, with recorder storage from 6TB up to 14TB.
Cameras across the range include bullet and turret models, some with integrated PIR, so kits can be all-turret, all-bullet, or mixed within one order.
How to choose
- Channel count: match the recorder (4/8/16-channel) to the number of camera positions on site, including spare channels for later expansion.
- Camera type and mount: turrets for eaved/soffit mounting, bullets for a visible directional deterrent — several kits mix both on one recorder.
- PIR-equipped cameras: PIR variants add passive infrared detection alongside video, useful where verified motion alerts matter.
- Storage headroom: recorder capacity (6TB–14TB in this range) should be sized against camera count, resolution and expected retention period.
- Recorder model/firmware line: check the specific recorder against existing site hardware before adding cameras piecemeal.
5MP Kits — frequently asked questions
What resolution do these kits record at?
They use 5MP fixed-lens cameras paired with HD-TVI recorders sized to that resolution and channel count.
What's the difference between the turret and bullet camera options?
Turrets are compact dome-style units suited to eaved or soffit mounting, while bullets are cylindrical and give a more visible directional deterrent; some kits in this range mix both types on one recorder.
How much storage do I need?
Storage in this range runs from 6TB to 14TB depending on channel count; required capacity depends on camera count, resolution and how long footage needs to be retained, so check the recorder spec against your retention needs.
