Verox HD-IP Plug and Play Poe Security Camera System

FAQs

What is included in the RVIPKIT1/2TB kit?

The kit includes an 8-channel PoE NVR with 2TB HDD, 4 x 4MP HD IP dome cameras (RVIP4DCAM), 4 x camera mounting bases, 4 x 18m ready-made network cables, junction boxes, power adapter, power cables, pack of screws, HDMI cable, USB mouse, and quick start guide. Everything needed for a complete security system installation is provided in the box.

Can I add more cameras to this system?

Yes, the 8-channel NVR supports up to 8 cameras total. Since the kit comes with 4 cameras, you can add up to 4 additional cameras. You can choose from optional RVIP4DCAM dome cameras for indoor/outdoor use, RVIPCAM cube cameras for indoor monitoring, or RVIPC1DOME pan-tilt cameras for wide-area coverage with tracking capabilities.

How does the AI detection work?

The system features built-in AI intelligence that specifically detects humans and vehicles while filtering out false alerts caused by animals, bugs, leaves, and other non-relevant motion. This smart detection saves time and energy compared to basic motion detection by only sending alerts for what matters most. You’ll receive instant push notifications to your mobile device when people or vehicles are detected.

What is the siren and strobe light feature?

The cameras include a 24/7 active siren-visual alarm defense system that can deter intruders proactively. When activity is detected (or triggered manually via the app), the system can activate a loud siren or one of three different strobe lights. This visible and audible deterrent can scare intruders away, helping prevent crime before it happens rather than just recording it.

Does the system support colour night vision?

Yes, the cameras feature advanced colour night vision capability. With F1.0 super aperture lenses, high-sensitivity sensors, and built-in warm supplemental spotlights, the cameras can capture full colour detail even in complete darkness. The system also supports infrared and hybrid night vision modes for different lighting conditions.

How do I access the cameras remotely?

The system uses P2P (peer-to-peer) technology and a mobile app available for both iOS (Apple App Store) and Android (Google Play) devices. After the initial setup, you can access your cameras from anywhere with an internet connection, view live feeds, receive alerts, control the siren/strobe, and use two-way audio to communicate through the cameras.

What is Power over Ethernet (PoE) and why is it beneficial?

Power over Ethernet (PoE) means the cameras receive both power and data through a single network cable, eliminating the need for separate power adapters at each camera location. This simplifies installation significantly, reduces cable clutter, and makes it easier to position cameras in locations where power outlets may not be readily available. The kit includes ready-made 18m network cables for convenient setup.

How much video can the 2TB hard drive store?

The amount of video storage depends on several factors including resolution settings, compression format (H.265 is more efficient than H.264), frame rate, and the number of cameras recording. With 4 cameras recording at 4MP resolution using H.265 compression, you can typically store several weeks of continuous footage. The system also supports upgrading to a 4TB HDD for double the storage capacity if needed.

Can I use two-way audio with the cameras?

Yes, the dome cameras included in the kit feature built-in microphones and speakers for two-way audio communication. You can listen through the camera and speak back in real-time via the mobile app. This is useful for communicating with delivery drivers, family members, or even warning intruders that they’ve been detected and authorities are being contacted.

Are the cameras weatherproof for outdoor use?

Yes, the RVIP4DCAM dome cameras included in the kit have an IP67 weatherproof rating, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation. They can withstand rain, dust, and harsh weather conditions while operating reliably in various environmental conditions.

Is the NVR noisy during operation?

No, the NVR features a fanless design, ensuring completely silent operation. This makes it suitable for installation in quiet environments like homes or offices where fan noise would be disruptive or noticeable.

What video compression formats are supported?

The system supports both H.265 and H.264 video compression formats. H.265 (also known as HEVC) is the more modern and efficient codec, providing better video quality at lower bitrates compared to H.264. This means you can store more footage on the 2TB hard drive while maintaining excellent image quality when using H.265 compression.
