AcuSearch & AcuTrack
Filter recorded footage by people, vehicles and attributes, then follow a target across multiple cameras on one timeline — no more frame-by-frame scrubbing.
SeekFree Smart Review
Instantly summarise hours of recording into the moments that matter — up to 16 channels with third-party cameras, or 32 with Uniview SIP/UMD cameras.
Smart by NVR
Run Face Detection, Smart Intrusion Prevention (SIP), Video Metadata and Licence Plate Comparison directly on the recorder, even with standard cameras.
Plate & Vehicle Recognition
Build up to 5 plate libraries totalling 25,000 vehicles, with metadata for vehicle type, colour and brand — ideal for car parks and gated sites.
Up to 48TB Across 2 Bays
Two SATA bays support up to 24TB per drive, with RAID 1 mirroring and redundant storage to protect critical footage.
ANR Anti-Dropout
If the network drops, ANR keeps recording to the camera's onboard SD card and backfills the NVR once the link returns — no gaps.
4K HDMI + VGA Output
Drive a 4K display over HDMI and a second monitor over VGA simultaneously for a true dual-screen control room view.
Dual Gigabit Network
Two RJ45 gigabit ports support multi-access, load balancing and network fault tolerance for resilient, high-bandwidth installs.
Does this NVR have built-in PoE ports?No. The NVR502-16E-IM-G is a non-PoE recorder. You connect cameras over your network and power them with a separate PoE switch or their own power supply, which keeps the unit cooler and lets you place cameras further from the recorder.
How many cameras can it record?Up to 16 IP channels at once, with 192 Mbps of incoming bandwidth — enough headroom for high-megapixel cameras.
What's the maximum storage?Two SATA bays each take up to 24TB, for around 48TB total. RAID 1 mirroring is available if you want footage written to two drives for redundancy.
What resolution can it record?Up to 32MP (8K) per channel in Ultra 265, H.265 or H.264, so it's ready for the latest high-resolution Uniview cameras.
What is AcuSearch and SeekFree?They're Uniview's AI review tools. AcuSearch filters footage by people and vehicles, AcuTrack follows a target across cameras, and SeekFree condenses hours of video into the key moments.
Is it NDAA compliant?Yes. The NVR502-16E-IM-G is NDAA compliant, making it suitable for government, education and enterprise projects with procurement requirements.
Does it work with third-party cameras?Yes, via ONVIF Profile S. AI functions like AcuSearch and SIP run on up to 16 standard third-party channels, or all channels with Uniview SIP/UMD cameras.
Can I view it remotely?Yes. P2P cloud access through the Uniview app and EZCloud lets you watch live and recorded footage from your phone or computer anywhere.
What's in the box and what warranty applies?The recorder ships with its power adapter and accessories (drives sold separately) and is backed by a 3-year Australian warranty with local CCTV Guru support.
