The CR16PVM CentralPoint video decoder is an accessory for the CentralPoint Series Network Video Recorders (NVRs). The video decoder compresses live video from CentralPoint cameras and then transmits the video over Ethernet connections. Decoding the H.265/H.264 video streams allows for the output of video to be displayed on an external monitor for applications such as public view or guard station monitoring. The CR16PVM can provide views for up to 16 camera streams in an HDMI, VGA, or composite video output. The CR16PVM can support a single image, 2×2, 3×3, or 4×4 monitor output displays.
