This category covers 4, 8, 16 and 32 channel models from brands SIPKO Security supplies and installs, so you can compare channel count, PoE ports, storage and smart search before choosing hardware. The right recorder is sized to the cameras it will run, how many days of footage you want to keep and how much room you need to add cameras later. Browse the catalogue, then request a quote for supply and installation across Melbourne.

Browse recorders by channels and brand

Use the filters to compare channel count and brand, then request a quote for the recorder that fits the site. The right choice depends on how many cameras you have now and later, PoE ports, hard drive bays, camera resolution and whether you want AI search on the recorder.

Benefits of buying

What a correctly sized network video recorder gives Melbourne homes, shops and industrial sites.

Footage kept for as long as you need

A recorder with the right hard drive keeps days or weeks of continuous video, so you can go back to an incident found late rather than losing it.

Simpler, tidier installation

Recorders with built-in PoE power each camera through its network cable, so there is no separate power point or plug pack at every camera.

Fast search when something happens

Smart search and people or vehicle filters on AI recorders help you find the right clip in minutes instead of scrolling through hours of video.

Live view and playback from your phone

The recorder links your cameras to the phone app, so you can check the property and play back footage from anywhere.

Room to grow

Choosing spare channels now means adding a camera later is a simple job, not a replacement of the whole recorder.

Cost of not buying

What you leave open when cameras have nowhere reliable to record, or the recorder is too small for the site.

No recording when you need it

Cameras that only stream live, or record to a small memory card, can leave nothing useful to review after a break-in or dispute.

Footage overwritten too soon

An undersized hard drive can overwrite recordings within a day or two, often before an incident is even noticed.

Outgrowing the recorder

A recorder with no spare channels or PoE ports forces a costly replacement as soon as one more camera is needed.

Recorder easy to reach or remove

A recorder left on an open shelf can be switched off or taken during a break-in, taking the evidence with it. Planning where it sits matters.

How to choose

Recorder choice should follow the cameras. Compare models by channel count, PoE ports, storage and smart search before you buy hardware.

Channel count

Count the cameras you need now and add room for growth. A site with 5 cameras today is usually better served by an 8 channel recorder than a 4 channel one.

Built-in PoE or separate switch

Recorders with built-in PoE ports keep smaller installs simple. Larger or spread-out sites may use a recorder without PoE and a separate network switch.

Storage and retention

Size the hard drive to the number of cameras, their resolution and how many days of footage you want to keep. Check how many drive bays the recorder has and the largest drive it supports.

Camera resolution and brand

Make sure the recorder supports the resolution of your cameras, such as 8MP (4K), and works well with the camera brand. Same-brand pairs usually unlock the full smart features.

AI search and alerts

Recorders with AI features can filter people and vehicles, run face or perimeter detection and speed up searching. Choose them where the site has busy activity or many cameras.
