The PT‑NRAS2E16‑K8 AiSense Series 16‑Channel NVR is a powerful AI‑ready network video recorder designed for modern CCTV installations in Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai, especially for housing societies, commercial complexes and offices that need reliable 24×7 surveillance. It combines advanced facial recognition, smart analytics and 4K video output with robust storage and networking, making it an ideal backbone for any IP CCTV system in high‑density urban environments.
AI facial recognition and analytics
This NVR supports facial recognition, facial detection and analytics, enabling human face capture, face picture comparison and fast face picture search directly from recorded footage. A built‑in face picture library supports up to 16 libraries and a total of up to 50,000 face images (each up to 4 MB, total up to 1 GB), allowing you to maintain records of residents, staff or visitors as per your policy. Facial detection performance includes 1‑channel human face capture from a network camera (up to 8 MP, H.264/H.265), with up to 4‑channel face picture comparison so security staff can quickly verify identities across multiple entrances.
Smart motion detection and perimeter protection
The PT‑NRAS2E16‑K8 offers intelligent motion detection on all channels, with 4 MP‑level video analysis for human and vehicle recognition at the device level to significantly reduce false alarms from irrelevant movement. On top of this, it provides dedicated human/vehicle perimeter protection on 2 channels (up to 4 MP / 8 MP HD network camera, H.264/H.265), ideal for gates, boundary walls, parking entries and critical zones where accurate alerts are essential. This makes it a strong fit for applications such as CCTV for housing society in Mumbai, perimeter security for Thane societies and entry‑exit monitoring in Navi Mumbai commercial complexes.
16‑channel IP video and 4K display
With 16‑channel IP video input and 160 Mbps incoming as well as 160 Mbps outgoing bandwidth, this NVR easily handles multiple high‑resolution IP cameras without compromising on frame rate or quality. It supports up to 4K HDMI 1 output (3840×2160 at 60 Hz / 30 Hz) and multiple full‑HD and standard resolutions via HDMI 1, HDMI 2, VGA 1 and VGA 2, giving flexibility for main and auxiliary monitoring screens in security cabins. HDMI 1 and VGA 1 provide simultaneous main outputs, while HDMI 2 and VGA 2 act as auxiliary outputs, allowing separate displays for guards and management.
Advanced decoding and recording performance
The PT‑NRAS2E16‑K8 supports H.265+/H.265/H.264+/H.264 decoding, optimising storage and bandwidth without sacrificing image clarity. It records in multiple resolutions, including 12 MP, 8 MP, 6 MP, 5 MP, 4 MP, 3 MP, 1080p, UXGA, 720p, VGA and lower formats, giving flexibility for different camera types and retention policies. Decoding capability with AI on includes 1‑channel at 12 MP (30 fps), 2‑channel at 8 MP (30 fps), 4‑channel at 4 MP (30 fps) or 8‑channel at 1080p (30 fps), while with AI off it supports 2‑channel at 12 MP, 3‑channel at 8 MP, 6‑channel at 4 MP or 12‑channel at 1080p at 30 fps, ensuring smooth live view and playback even in multi‑camera setups.
Audio, network and remote access
For audio, the NVR includes 2‑channel RCA audio output and 1‑channel two‑way audio input (RCA), allowing operators to listen in or talk back through connected devices when paired with supported cameras or audio modules. It supports up to 128 remote connections, making it suitable for multi‑user environments where society office bearers, security vendors and management companies need simultaneous access. Network support covers key protocols such as TCP/IP, DHCP, IPv4, DNS, DDNS, NTP, RTSP, SMTP, SNMP, NFS, iSCSI, UPnP, HTTP and HTTPS, and it features two self‑adaptive RJ‑45 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet interfaces for reliable, high‑speed connectivity.
High storage capacity and integration options
To meet the storage demands of high‑resolution CCTV for housing societies in Mumbai and surrounding areas, the PT‑NRAS2E16‑K8 provides 8 SATA interfaces plus 1 e‑SATA, with up to 10 TB capacity per disk, enabling long‑term archival of footage. It offers 16 alarm inputs and 9 alarm outputs (with the 9th output supporting 12 V control), allowing integration with sensors, beams and other security systems. Front USB 2.0 (2 ports) and a rear USB 3.0 port simplify data backup and configuration, while serial interfaces (1 RS‑232, 1 RS‑485) support integration with PTZ cameras and third‑party devices.
Robust design for 24/7 operation
The unit operates on 100–240 VAC, 50–60 Hz with power consumption ≤ 30 W (without HDD), making it energy‑efficient for continuous use in society security rooms. It is designed to work in temperatures from −10 °C to 55 °C and humidity from 10% to 90%, suitable for typical conditions in Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai. With dimensions of 445 × 476 × 95 mm and weight ≤ 8 kg, it fits standard equipment racks or shelves in CCTV control rooms, providing a reliable, AI‑enhanced recording platform for professional IP CCTV installations.
