Guiding video to top-tier security
NVR perfectly blends video surveillance with Ajax security systems. It delivers unparalleled system response speed and instant access to video archive, even on the go. The device’s wide compatibility allows for seamless integration of almost any IP camera with intrusion protection and automation. NVR carries Ajax’s legacy of professional-grade security trusted by millions of users worldwide.

Rapid and encrypted data transfer
Ajax JetSparrow is the heart and brain of the Ajax video. It is responsible for all the video transmission, storage, and management.
We have developed JetSparrow, our proprietary video transmission technology, to deliver an ultra-fast VMS experience. Thanks to this streaming technology, navigating through the local HDD archive feels as smooth as browsing cloud storage. As a result, browsing the archive becomes remarkably efficient, and the live view initiates without any delay.
- Peer-to-peer transmission
- TLS encryption
- High stability
Ajax NVR: Elevate your security with cutting-edge network video recording
An IP camera's video stream is recorded, stored, and managed by a network video recorder (NVR), which uses digital networks for video data. NVRs are essential for modern surveillance systems, providing centralized storage and advanced features. Ajax NVR combines security measures and video surveillance, offering user-friendly control and access to high-definition video archives on the go. The features that differentiate Ajax NVR from other options are explained further.

Overview:
NVR is a network video recorder for home and office video surveillance. You can connect Ajax cameras and third-party IP cameras to the device.
The user can view archived and online videos in Ajax apps. NVR records the received data with corresponding settings and a hard drive (not included). If the hard drive is not installed, the video recorder is used only for integrating third-party IP cameras into the Ajax system. NVR provides users with video alarm verification.
NVR requires Internet access to connect to the Ajax Cloud service. The video recorder is connected to the network via Ethernet using the corresponding connector.
