Recently D-Link announced it is shipping the mydlink® Network Video Recorder with HDMI Output (DNR-312L). Designed with small business owners in mind, the DNR-312L NVR is simple to set up and operate and allows users to keep a close eye on their businesses locally with a mouse and HD monitor, or remotely with a phone, tablet or PC. Users can customize the ideal security solution by mixing and matching up to nine D-Link® network cameras, and can view, record and play back footage from all nine cameras simultaneously. With plug and play configuration, the DNR-312L automatically finds and records video and audio from D-Link network cameras and can be set to record continuously, on a schedule or based on motion. Its single storage bay accepts a hard drive up to 6TB in size, providing a recording retention period of 30 days or longer. A scheduled back-up function allows one or more camera recordings to be backed up to a USB drive, network storage or an FTP server. “The DNR-312L NVR is a great solution for restaurants, gas stations, liquor stores, and other small footprint retail locations,” said Vance Kozik, director of marketing for IP Surveillance, D-Link Systems, Inc. “The ability to plug the DNR-312L directly into a 1080p monitor and be able to view, play back and export video without the need for a computer makes this NVR an ideal solution for a small business. The 1080p monitor support also enables a store owner or manager to display live video so customers are aware of the store’s surveillance without having to dedicate additional resources.” A variety of viewing options exist for the DNR-312L, including web browser, mobile app and the native HDMI port. The graphic user interface look, feel and functionality of the HDMI output is closely matched by the web browser interface for a consistent user experience. Functions include camera search, e-map support and on screen display of date, time, camera name, frame rate, and bandwidth. Additionally, the DNR-312L supports two independent streaming profiles from D-Link network cameras. One stream is high resolution to capture the important details. The second stream is lower resolution and is used for the nine-camera view and for mobile app use. Both streams are simultaneously recorded and available for playback.

D-Link recently introduced two new IP cameras – a two megapixel Full HD Indoor Pan/Tilt Dome Camera (DCS-5615) and a one megapixel HD Outdoor Dome Camera with Color Night Vision (DCS-6315), both delivering high definition resolution and a full suite of image and management features designed to meet a range of customer surveillance needs. “Dome cameras continue to be the most popular form factor in the surveillance market,” said Vance Kozik, director of marketing for IP Surveillance, D-Link Systems, Inc. “The introduction of these two new IP cameras expands the range of offerings and performance capabilities available with D-Link’s line-up of dome cameras, offering high definition video and an advanced feature set within a smaller form factor for a great overall value.” Boasting 1920 x 1080 resolution, the DCS-5615 features a motorised pan/tilt mechanism and wide angle lens within a compact indoor dome. Well suited for small business applications where remote viewing requires the ability to pan and tilt the camera, the DCS-5615 is an attractively priced solution in a compact form factor that blends well into any indoor environment. An integrated microphone allows users to optionally listen and record audio in addition to video1. The DCS-6315 rugged outdoor network camera offers 1280 x 720 resolution with enhanced imaging sensitivity, allowing users to see greater detail in low light while remaining in color. For very low light or completely dark environments, the DCS-6315 can operate in black and white mode and illuminate the scene with its built-in infrared LED illuminators. For added flexibility, both cameras include an integrated microSD card slot for local “in camera” recording of event-triggered video clips and snapshots for later review using a web browser. Also featured in both cameras is H.264, MPEG-4 and MJPEG compression, multiple independent streaming profiles and ONVIF compliance. With the included D-ViewCam™ software, users can also view, manage and record up to 32 cameras on a single computer in a central location, as well as receive e-mail alerts if motion or digital input devices are detected.  More about the DCS-5615: Two Megapixel Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080) 360° pan (+180° to -180°) and 80° tilt at 101°/second 4mm fixed focal length lens (77° field of view) Built-in 802.3af compliant PoE module for easy installation in a variety of locations without the need for supplemental power cabling More about the DCS-6315: One Megapixel HD resolution (1280 x 720) Color night vision with enhanced low light capabilities (0.1 Lux in Color, 0.02 Lux in B&W) Infrared LED night vision with viewing up to 45 feet 2.8 to 12mm varifocal lens (90° to 28° field of view) Enclosure is IP68-rated (weatherproof) and IK10-rated (vandal-proof) Built-in 802.3af compliant PoE module for easy installation in a variety of locations without the need for supplemental power cabling
