The DX8100 Series hybrid video recorder (HVR) has long-served
the professional security market with a wide variety of search tools,
the ability to view up to 72 cameras at the server, ATM/POS

version 2.0 offers an even more flexible and robust security recording
platform.
The DX8100D is a security-enabled product for highly regulated
markets. This model meets Defense Information Assurance
Certification and Accreditation Process (DIACAP) standards.
Government installations that have existing DX8100 systems can
convert them to DIACAP-compliant systems without losing
existing video.

The new DX8100 resource meter monitors system resources in real
time and is a useful gauge for the addition of IP cameras to the
system. New configuration tools allow you to easily configure
IP cameras. With no licensing fees for Pelco and Axis
definition network cameras, the shift to IP recording is an affordable
transition.

Extensive Networking Options
DX8100 networks can grow as security requirements expand. A unit
can operate as part of a network of as many as five DX8100s and
DX8000s. This gives the HVR operator the ability to view and control
up to 180 cameras. The remote client can administer DX8100
servers, and it can simultaneously control and operate up to
36 cameras connected to any of 200 DX8100 and DX8000
HVR/DVRs. The remote client application, EmergencyAgent, and
DX8100 Viewer are included at no extra cost. These applications
can be installed on an unlimited number of client workstations.
