AJAX NVR HAC (8-ch) – 8-Channel Network Video Recorder with HDMI Output for professional video surveillance

The AJAX NVR HAC (8-ch) is a high-performance network video recorder (NVR) for modern video surveillance systems. Unlike the previous AJAX NVR series, this model features an integrated HDMI output, allowing live images and recordings to be displayed directly on a monitor or TV – even without access to the Ajax app or an internet connection. This makes the recorder ideal for businesses, retail stores, reception areas, warehouses, and private security solutions.

The 8-channel NVR supports both AJAX IP cameras and numerous third-party IP cameras. The requirement is support for the open standards ONVIF or RTSP. This allows for the seamless integration of cameras from many well-known manufacturers, such as Hikvision, Dahua, Uniview, Axis, Bosch, Reolink, and other manufacturers with ONVIF or RTSP support. Cameras can be detected automatically on the network or added manually via IP address, credentials, and stream parameters.

The HDMI output represents the biggest difference compared to the previous AJAX NVR series without HDMI. While earlier models were operated exclusively via Ajax apps or remote access, the NVR HAC (8-ch) enables direct local viewing of all connected cameras on a screen. Additionally, two USB ports are available for a mouse or keyboard, allowing the system to be operated comfortably directly at the device.

The recorder supports hard drives or SSDs with up to 16 TB of storage capacity (not included) and can also be operated without an installed storage medium. In this case, it serves as a central interface for integrating compatible IP cameras into the AJAX security system. The recordings are digitally signed, ensuring their integrity and authenticity can be verified at any time.

Another advantage is the support for the JetSparrow protocol. This video streaming protocol, developed by AJAX, ensures particularly fast connection establishment, low latency, and efficient bandwidth utilization within the AJAX video ecosystem. This allows live images to be transmitted almost without delay and enables smooth playback even with multiple cameras.
