Product Description
The DS-3WR3X-1 is a USB WiFi 6 adapter built specifically for Hikvision DVR/NVR recorder connectivity — not for camera links. Use it where cable pulls to the recorder aren't practical, but keep expectations tied to its 20 Mbps ceiling rather than treating it as a multi-channel streaming solution.
Key specs
- Standard: IEEE 802.11ax (WiFi 6), backward-compatible with 802.11b/g/n
- Band: Single-band 2.4GHz only
- Interface: USB 2.0, driver-free plug-and-play on supported recorders
- Recorder link throughput: up to 20 Mbps
- Modes: Station (client) mode and Soft AP
- Security: WPA/WPA2
- Form factor: Internal antenna, nano design at 21×15×7.7mm
Deployment notes
Because throughput is capped around 20 Mbps to the DVR/NVR, this adapter suits remote access, firmware updates and event transmission — not continuous high-bitrate multi-channel viewing. The nano internal-antenna design keeps physical footprint minimal, which helps when mounting inside racks or enclosed panel builds.
Compatibility
This is a recorder-side accessory only — it does not provide wireless transmission for IP cameras. Support is limited to specific Hikvision DVR/NVR models, generally those on newer firmware platforms; confirm compatibility against the target recorder's model and firmware before specifying it on a job. Also listed under part number GR-DS-3WR3X-1-LN.

What throughput can I expect to the recorder?
The adapter is rated at up to 20 Mbps to the DVR/NVR, which suits remote access, firmware updates and event transmission rather than continuous multi-channel streaming.
Does the DS-3WR3X-1 work with any Hikvision DVR or NVR?
Compatibility is limited to supported Hikvision DVR/NVR models, typically those on newer firmware platforms or specific model series, so it must be verified against the target recorder before installation.
