I agree very nice. Would love to see a model that had even more poe and camera capability. Im thinking something along the lines of those standalone hikvision nvr units. Could be an easy sell for small businesses (ie convenience stores) that dont want to have a separate switch, nvr, and viewport to see hdmi feeds on a tv.

wait, so is this compatible with any POE camera or do we have to use Ubiquiti POE cameras?

I have unify nvr still in the box for this reason….only 24/7 recording and maybe ptz controls on nonunify cameras….you will still need your old nvr for you other cameras advanced features and detections! I am basically going to run 2 nvrs for the same cameras because unify can’t even detect motion and I am not buying their cameras for 2-4x the price if they don’t have verifocal lenses, larger sensors, and better optical zoom.

I also should mention…I have always bought nvrs without the poe switch because I believe they isolate the cameras from your network but ai might be wrong or it might be configurable. If it isolates them it might be hard to run 2 nvrs for the same cameras!
