Which ANNKE NVRs work with the ANNKE AC500 I51ES?
The ANNKE AC500 I51ES is a recommended camera option for the ANNKE NVRs listed below for standard IP video, live view and recording. The pairing should be planned around available channels, the recorder’s published resolution and bandwidth limits, PoE power budget and current firmware.
Based on HawkVision Pro’s practical installation experience and the requirements customers most often bring us, same-brand ANNKE camera and NVR combinations generally provide stronger setup harmony and more predictable day-to-day operation than mixed-brand systems.
What cable should be used?
For a reliable and cost-effective PoE installation, use genuine solid-copper Cat6 Ethernet cable rather than copper-clad aluminium (CCA). A standard Ethernet channel is normally limited to 100 metres end to end; use outdoor-rated cable and weatherproof the camera connection where required.
How do non-PoE NVRs connect?
The ANNKE NNR168 and NNR3212 do not power cameras directly. Connect the ANNKE AC500 I51ES to a suitable IEEE 802.3af PoE switch or injector on the same network, then add it to the NVR.
Why choose this camera?
3K 5MP video, Smart Dual Light, human and vehicle detection, two-way audio, sound and light deterrence, IP67 protection and up to 512GB microSD storage.
