The XVR5108HS compact DVR is distinct from the XVR5108H Mini in two key ways: it records at 4K-N (approximately 5MP) rather than full 4K resolution, and it does not include PoC ports. The 4K-N specification is an intermediate resolution between 5MP and 4K that provides substantially more detail than 1080P while being slightly below the full 4K specification.
For installations using 5MP cameras rather than 4K cameras, the 4K-N recording capability is perfectly matched to the camera specification and the difference from full 4K is imperceptible in practice. The absence of PoC on this model means cameras must be powered by conventional means from a separate power supply, which suits installations on existing infrastructure where PoC is not planned.
WizSense AI is present across all recording channels, providing human and vehicle detection and the associated reduction in false motion alerts. On an 8-camera system, AI-filtered alerts are particularly valuable for monitoring positions where continuous operator attention is not practical.
The compact 1U form factor is smaller than a standard 1U DVR, reducing the physical footprint at the head end and making it compatible with smaller wall enclosures and tight rack installations.
For CCTV installers specifying WizSense-capable 5MP DVRs in a compact housing without PoC across residential and commercial sites in London and the UK, the XVR5108HS 4K-N provides the AI analytics and compact design in the 8-channel format.
