DS-96128NI-M16
Product Overview
A 128-channel 3U network video recorder for high-capacity surveillance systems. The listing combines 400 Mbps incoming and outgoing bandwidth, 8K or dual 4K display options, sixteen hot-swap SATA interfaces and RAID storage protection.
Key Features
- Up to 128 IP camera channels
- 400 Mbps incoming and outgoing bandwidth
- Up to 2-channel 32MP decoding
- 8K or dual 4K video output
- 16 hot-swap SATA interfaces
- RAID 0, 1, 5, 6 and 10 support
Best-Fit Applications
- Large commercial and industrial sites
- Multi-building camera systems
- Transport and logistics facilities
- Projects requiring high channel count and resilient storage
Compatibility and Pre-Order Checks
- Calculate total camera bitrate, event peaks, remote viewing and outgoing bandwidth before assigning 128 channels.
- Confirm decoding capacity against the exact live-view layout, resolution and frame-rate mix.
- Design disk quantity, capacity, RAID level, retention and rebuild margin; the listing states up to 16 TB per disk.
- Verify camera events, ANPR or fisheye support, firmware, network design, rack space, power and cooling before procurement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does 128 channels mean every camera can record at maximum resolution?
No. Channel count, total incoming bandwidth, recording settings and storage must all be calculated together.
How many internal drives are supported?
The current listing specifies 16 hot-swap SATA interfaces, with up to 16 TB listed for each disk.
Does the NVR support RAID?
The product data lists RAID 0, 1, 5, 6 and 10 plus N+M hot spare. Select the storage design according to retention and recovery requirements.
