Ajax NVR HAC 16-Channel White Network Video Recorder with HDMI Output

Ajax NVR HAC 16-Channel White Network Video Recorder with HDMI Output

The Ajax NVR HAC (16-ch) is a network video recorder built for sites that need dependable local recording alongside remote monitoring. Housed in a compact white casing, this recorder connects directly to a monitor or TV via HDMI, giving installers and end users an instant, on-site view of every camera without needing a laptop or mobile app. It integrates smoothly with the Ajax security ecosystem while also supporting third-party ONVIF and RTSP IP cameras, making it a flexible core for both new and existing camera installations.

Key Features

• 16-channel support for managing footage from up to 16 IP cameras on one device.
• Built-in HDMI output for direct, app-free viewing of live and recorded footage on a connected display.
• Onboard video management software (VMS) that can be navigated locally with a mouse and keyboard.
• Up to 4K resolution recording at 25/30 FPS on supported channels, with ONVIF Profile S/T and RTSP compatibility.
• Large local storage capacity via a single 3.5-inch SATA hard drive, supporting drives up to 16TB (HDD not included).
• Dual USB Type-A ports for connecting a mouse, keyboard, or USB flash drive.
• Smart motion detection with configurable detection zones to reduce irrelevant footage and conserve storage.
• Ajax ecosystem integration, allowing detectors to automatically trigger and highlight camera feeds during an alarm event.
• Encrypted video streaming using TLS/mTLS, plus passcode, biometric, and two-factor account protection.

Ideal Applications

This recorder suits homes, offices, retail stores, and small-to-medium commercial sites that want a single screen showing every camera in real time, particularly where guard posts, reception desks, or control rooms need an always-on local display. Because it works even without an active internet connection once configured, it's also a solid choice for sites with unreliable connectivity that still want continuous local recording, while remote users can still check in via Ajax apps when internet is available.

Can I use non-Ajax cameras with this recorder?
Yes. In addition to Ajax video devices, the NVR HAC supports third-party IP cameras that use ONVIF and RTSP protocols.

No. Once set up, the built-in VMS lets you view live and recorded footage through the HDMI-connected display without an active internet connection, though initial setup does require internet access.
