NVR Calculator
This calculator generates values which should be used for planning purposes only. The values are approximations and the actual bandwidth and harddrive capacity required may vary according to different recording environments.
The results assume that the camera settings for each camera are configured to the same settings.
How to use the NVR Calculator
- Enter the number of cameras being used.
- Select the number of hours from the drop-down menu that the cameras are scheduled to record per day.
- Enter the number of days that the video will be stored on the NVR.
- For the Video Streaming Bitrate, select the bitrate in kilobytes per second at which the cameras are transmitting video feed.
- If using audio, enter the audio’s bitrate in kilobytes per second.
- Hit calculate to display the total bandwidth and total harddrive capacity required.
