{"product_id":"the-watchful-ledger-annke-4k-32-channel-poe-nvr","title":"The Watchful Ledger | ANNKE 4K 32-Channel PoE NVR Recorder with 16 PoE Ports","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-narrative\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.8;\"\u003eA camera is only as trustworthy as the recorder holding its footage. Thirty-two cameras watching a perimeter produce more data in a week than most recorders can accept, and the failure mode is quiet. Frames arrive late, resolution is quietly reduced, and the incident you actually needed lands in the gap. The Watchful Ledger is the component built so that this does not happen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.8;\"\u003eThe specification is written for load rather than for brochures. Thirty-two IP camera inputs are accepted at 256 Mbps of total inbound bandwidth, recording resolution reaches 12 megapixels, and H.265+ compression does the arithmetic that keeps the archive affordable on disk. Local display runs from a 4K HDMI output at 3840 by 2160, with independent VGA output for a second station, so the security desk and the monitoring position do not have to take turns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.8;\"\u003eStorage is deliberately left open. Four SATA interfaces accept drives so the retention window can be sized to the site rather than to a bundled disk, and configurations with 1 TB or 2 TB drives fitted are available at checkout. Power over Ethernet carries both power and video over one cable for runs of 100 to 300 metres, which removes the need for a power outlet at each camera position. The 32-channel configuration includes a 16-port PoE switch, so the full channel count is reachable on arrival.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.8; font-style: italic; color: #333;\"\u003eThree weeks after an incident, the only perimeter that counts is the one the recorder can still show.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr style=\"margin: 24px 0; border: 0; border-top: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-features\" style=\"margin-top: 26px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 19px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; line-height: 1.7;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"\u003e✦ 32 IP camera inputs with 256 Mbps total inbound bandwidth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"\u003e✦ Recording resolution up to 12 MP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"\u003e✦ H.265+, H.265, H.264+, H.264, and MPEG4 compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"\u003e✦ 4K HDMI output at 3840 x 2160\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"\u003e✦ Independent HDMI and VGA outputs for two display positions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"\u003e✦ 4 x SATA interfaces for user-selected storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"\u003e✦ 16 PoE ports with 100 to 300 metre transmission distance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"\u003e✦ 32-channel configuration supplied with a 16-port PoE switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"\u003e✦ RJ45 network connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-specs\" style=\"margin-top: 28px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 19px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e N931BB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCamera inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32 IP channels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInbound bandwidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256 Mbps total\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecording resolution:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 12 MP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompression formats:\u003c\/strong\u003e H.265+, H.265, H.264+, H.264, MPEG4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHDMI output:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4K, 3840 x 2160\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVGA output:\u003c\/strong\u003e Independent from HDMI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStorage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 x SATA HDD interfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoE ports:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16, transmission distance 100 to 300 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNetwork:\u003c\/strong\u003e RJ45\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChannel configurations:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32CH includes a 16-port PoE switch; 16CH reaches 32 channels with an external switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 9px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive options:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 TB, 2 TB, or bring your own drives, selected at checkout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-applications\" style=\"margin-top: 26px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 19px; letter-spacing: 0.4px;\"\u003eWhere It Belongs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.8;\"\u003eThis recorder suits sites where camera count grows before anyone changes the network. Warehouses and loading yards with long perimeters, retail floors with multiple aisles, parking areas, farms, and multi-building commercial sites all reach thirty-two channels faster than expected. The 256 Mbps inbound ceiling means the recorder keeps accepting every stream instead of dropping frames under load, and the 4K HDMI output gives a control room a readable wall feed. Because storage sits in four SATA bays, the retention window can be set by policy.
