NDAA-Compliant 8-Channel PoE NVR

Uniview UNV NVR501-08B-P8 8-Channel 8-PoE NVR — Australian Stock & 3-Year Warranty

The Uniview UNV NVR501-08B-P8 is an 8-channel, single-bay network video recorder with 8 built-in PoE ports, so you can plug your cameras straight into the back of the unit — no separate switch, no extra cabling. It records up to 16MP resolution in Ultra 265, takes a single SATA drive up to 16TB for weeks of continuous footage, and powers a full eight-camera system from one box. Plug & Play setup, 4K HDMI output and onboard smart detection make it the ideal all-in-one recorder for homes, retail and small business sites.

Camera Inputs8 Channels
PoE Ports8 × PoE (75W)
Max Recording16MP / 4K
Storage1 × 16TB SATA

Plug & Play — your whole system from one box

8 Independent PoE Ports

Connect and power up to eight IP cameras directly from the recorder. Each port delivers up to 30W (75W total) over 802.3at/af, so even varifocal and IR cameras run from a single cable.

True Plug & Play

Cameras are detected and added automatically when you plug them in — no manual IP addressing or network setup. You're recording within minutes of powering on.

Up to 16MP Recording

Records every channel in Ultra 265, H.265 or H.264 at up to 16MP, so it's ready for today's high-resolution 4K and 8MP Uniview cameras without re-compressing detail away.

4K HDMI + VGA Output

Drive a crisp 4K display over HDMI and a second monitor over VGA at the same time — ideal for a live wall in the office plus a screen at the front counter.

Smart detection and reliable recording

Smart by IPC

Run Face Detection, Smart Intrusion Prevention (SIP) and Ultra Motion Detection on all 8 channels with compatible Uniview cameras for fewer false alarms and faster review.

VCA Smart Search

Find footage faster with Human Body, Motor and Non-Motor Vehicle search, General Search, People Counting reports and Heat Map — no frame-by-frame scrubbing.

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 — so you don't lose footage during an outage.

P2P Cloud & Mobile

Watch live and recorded video from anywhere through the Uniview app and EZCloud P2P — no port forwarding or static IP required.

How much footage can it hold?

Recording time depends on how many cameras you run, their resolution and frame rate, and whether you record continuously or on motion. The estimates below assume 8 cameras at 4MP, H.265, ~4 Mbps continuous — a typical real-world load. Smart/motion-only recording, lower resolution or fewer cameras will extend retention significantly. This recorder takes a single SATA drive up to 16TB.

Approximate Recording Retention (8 × 4MP, H.265)
2 TB ~6 days continuous · ~14 days motion-based
4 TB ~12 days continuous · ~28 days motion-based
8 TB ~24 days continuous · ~55 days motion-based
16 TB (max) ~48 days continuous · ~110 days motion-based

Figures are estimates for guidance only and will vary with scene activity, bitrate and camera settings.

      Very displeased

      If I could give negative stars I would. I purchased the UNV box to replace an old system attached to a newly purchased property on the advice of the UNV team. The old one was connected to the previous owners. However I have still been unable to connect - UNVs system is trash and they have been of very little assistance. An absolute waste of money and couldn’t not recommend less.

      Disappointment

      Very disappointed with the product ...... unfortunately. The hardware linstallation ( UNV Easystar camera's, cabling, monitor etc.) is easy and the HDD was pre-installed in the recorder. The disappointment came thereafter. Too many links for all different manuals and instructions to go through to find the correct one and in the end find out that the available apps are all only Android based. No matter how long and where ever I searched on the internet about the products compatibility with windows, the result is the same and thus not compatible with Windows. I can check the camera's away from home through my Android phone but it makes it all much more complicated to setup the security on my ethernet home network. Also maybe a link for a short version manual with just the bare necessities would make it a bit easier to start the whole installation before digging in deeper to explore all the capabilities of the program.

      Conclusion: the total UNV product of camera's with recorder to me could have been 3.5 to 4 stars but the mentioned issues above brought it back to 2 stars hence my "Disappointment".
