Honeywell Expands Performance Series IP NVR

Honeywell expanded its line of Performance Series IP embedded network video recorders (NVRs), giving customers more flexibility when designing customized IP video systems. Now available in eight or 16 channel models, the embedded NVRs are compatible with Honeywell’s equIP Series and Performance Series IP cameras, broadening options for IP-based surveillance systems.

“Making the transition to IP cameras doesn’t have to be a big hassle – or a big burden on customers’ wallets,” said John Smith, Honeywell senior product marketing manager. “Our line of embedded NVRs enables security dealers to provide high-definition IP video surveillance solutions tailored to customers’ unique channel capacity needs at a cost-effective price point.”

Customers can select from a wide range of IP cameras, including Honeywell’s recently released equIP Series S line of cameras – featuring pancake, indoor dome, rugged dome, bullet and box cameras ranging from 720p to 5 MP – as well as the Performance Series 1080p IP ball and bullet cameras.

An intuitive setup wizard and Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) plug-and-play functionality reduces system installation time and costs. Customers can tailor the amount of video captured and retained by adding up to eight terabytes of internal storage. The NVRs can be programmed to send automatic email alerts when the system detects motion, network failures, alarm inputs and tampering. Apple and Android mobile apps allow business owners to view video from web-enabled devices, including laptops, tablets and smartphones, providing peace of mind from virtually any location.

In addition to the eight and 16 channel models, the Performance Series IP line of embedded NVRs includes four-channel NVRs available in bundled kits with four ball or bullet style high-definition 1080p IP cameras. The full line of Performance Series IP embedded NVRs are available through security dealers across North America.

  • The Evolution of IP Camera Intelligence

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come. The first network camera, launched in 1996, delivered one frame every 17 seconds—not impressive by today’s standards, but groundbreaking at the time. It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
