The Micro Series Video Recorder is small and affordable, yet featured-packed hybrid DVR which uses a full version of our VIGIL software suite. Highly compact and efficient, the MVR can manage and record up to 16 analog or IP cameras and offers internal video storage up to 2 terabytes. 

The MVR allows access to all of the same features as it’s more powerful siblings which are the PRO and NDVR but is designed to be more affordable and compact which will limit using many of the advanced features available simultaneously.

Compared to other recorders on the market in this price range, you will find the MVR to excel competitively in every category and provide one of the widest feature sets available from any manufacturer.

The MVR is an excellent choice for nearly any installation, especially since it can be seamlessly mixed and matched with our more powerful recorders allowing you to select the correct amount of power needed for each location while keeping consistent enterprise functionality.

The MVR is fully compatible with all of our Enterprise Applications including VIGIL Central Management.
