The TP-Link VIGI NVR1016H is a powerful 16-channel network video recorder built for reliable, professional-grade video surveillance in homes, offices, shops, warehouses, and multi-site security deployments. Designed to work seamlessly with TP-Link VIGI cameras and other ONVIF-compatible IP cameras, it delivers smooth real-time monitoring, intelligent playback, and secure local storage.

Supporting up to 8MP resolution, the NVR1016H ensures every detail is captured with clarity across all 16 channels. Advanced H.265+ video compression significantly reduces storage usage and network bandwidth while maintaining crystal-clear image quality—helping lower long-term storage and operational costs.

With support for up to 10TB SATA hard drive storage, the VIGI NVR1016H enables 24/7 continuous recording, motion-based recording, and event-triggered alerts. Intelligent search tools allow you to quickly locate footage by date, event type, or tag, while variable playback speeds help speed up investigations.

The dedicated VIGI mobile app and web interface provide secure remote access from anywhere, allowing live view, playback, and system management on both Android and iOS devices. Two-way audio support further enhances real-time communication and monitoring flexibility.
