Qualité et durabilité Je viens de remplacer mon NVR 8 canaux pour un NVR 16 canaux. Tout est parfaitement fonctionnel et le remplacement s’est fait en 5 minutes sans problme.
Par contre j’enlve une toile car le NVR 16 canaux a un ventilateur bruyant, ce qui n’tait pas le cas du prcedent.
Niente di cui lamentarsi Semplice, facile da utilizzare e senza nessun problema a patto si usare camere sempre della Reolink. Se poi lo trovate in offerta ( io sono stato fortunato ) prendetelo al volo. Reolink e’ una scommessa vincente anche contro marche ben pi famose e costose.
Product good technical support poor! My experience with this product is good so far however the setting up of this was anything but easy, I don’t want to be disparaging about the Reolink product after having this recorder for a few weeks now it performs as I would expect however the setting up process had me frustrated to say the least and I nearly sent it back in disgust! the problem was so simple but made so hard by technical support to cut a long story short the only problem I encountered was the App I installed it on my iMac and the the Reolink NVR just would not connect with it, many many online chats with technical support proved very frustrating, they even suggested I dismantle the NVR to reset it from inside because that’s were the reset button is located I couldn’t believe it! anyway I thought think outside the box how can this be so hard ?, after searching the webb I found that all the problem was the wrong App I had downloaded from Reolink site an old App, not once did the technical dept ask which app was I using amazing! as soon as I downloaded the up to date app all connected and worked perfectly, I am very happy with the NVR and pleased with my purchase.
Easy to use / setup & good value We used this product to keep an eye on our warehouse – it was easy to set up, just plug in the cameras and then hook up the app using the UID.
Camera stream quality is good and the AI detection is a useful feature to have.
One really good feature is that as we have two of these NVRs, in the reolink app you can see cameras from the different NVRs in the same app and with not much work required at all.
Fiabilité des produits reolink Je connais dj depuis longtemps la fiabilit des camras reolink, je voulais un nvr en 4k, je ne suis pas du. Pas mal de mes amis on achet ce mme quipement reolink et sont trs satisfait, merci reolink pour votre competance. J’ai 12 camras et j en suis trs satisfait. Cet t trs chaud parfois 42 degrs et aucun problme.
Brilliant, simple, easy to use Having used Eufy and Blink I upgraded after both of those systems let me down.
This NVR is genuinely plug and play. I installed 4 POE cameras. I plugged an ethernet cable in from the camera to the NVR and it was on the screen a second later. I have to click a few buttons and tell it any recording schedule and that was it.
I have linked 5 wireless cameras to it as well. That is slightly harder. I had to click a button and add the password I had set up when turning the camera on.
I installed an extra hard drive. Took 30 seconds plug and play.
Recording quality is excellent
Ease of use is outstanding
Only regret? Maybe I should have gone for the 16 camera one just in case I expand further!
Manque quelques fonctions importantes dans les paramètres de surveillance Bonjour tous. Produit fonctionne trs bien. Sauf, quand vous partager par internet, la surveillance une personne de confiance sur l’accs des camras on ne peut pas lui donner accs qu’ quelques camras. c’est embtant quand il y a des camras l’intrieur. Donc attention comment on s’expose dans les pices quand vous tes chez vous. Rolink pourrait modifier ces paramtres mais il faut qu’il y ait beaucoup de personne qui fasse la demande.

Compatible with our Swann POE Cameras! The house my parents bought 3 years back came installed with a Swann NVR 7285 recorder and 6 x NHD810 POE cameras. Fast forward to today and that base unit finally gave up the ghost after 6 years of hard use. A replacement same model was unavailable new or used and as i didn’t want to replace all the existing cameras as well i had to investigate an alternative (FYI Swann cameras connect using a proprietary “port 9000” protocol which is generally not interchangeable with other brands).
Anyway after much internet trawling it turns out the Swann unit is actually made by “Shenzhen Baichchuan Security Technology Co Ltd” in China which is actually just Reolink anywhere else! So i bought this Reolink NVR in the hopes it would work with our Swann cameras and it did. The operating system is literally identical to the Swann..i mean LITERALLY bar the Reolink logos. The only issue i had was that on startup it could not immediately view the existing Swann cameras – the reason for this is Reolink and Swann use different default passwords for their cameras which this NVR is obviously not setup with. No problem though; on the camera admin screen you can scroll right and input a password for each – for the Swann cameras this is “12345” (Reolinks use a blank default password as far as i know). Once this was done BOOM – off and going!
I can now reuse my Swann 1080p cameras, but i can also upgrade at any point to the Reolink 4K versions and it will all play together. In addition the Reolink apps are far superior to the Swann ones (which never get updated) in both functionality and stability so another win there.
If anyone wonders the Reolink software can also connect to a Swann NVR (i have one at my own house) and I have also connected a Reolink RLC-410-5MP camera to the Swann base unit so another indication that they are basically the same brands. Have fun!
Ottimo prodotto Ottimo prodotto sopratutto sulla qualit/prezzo. Unica pecca mancano delle istruzioni per l’installazione e programmazione sia delle telecamere che dell’nvr. Potrebbo fare un dischetto con video istruzioni cosi da rendere tutto ben facile. Comunque online su trovano dei video che con un po di pazienza spiegsno tutto. Poi una volta capito alcune cose… divente abbastanza intuitivo. Buon prodotto, nulla da dire sulla qualit. Bravi.
Constantly Changing Produc Some reviewers commented that this machine only has ONE playback speed. It has MANY playback speeds now. See my captured screen image. I imagine that many of the reviews here may well refer to earlier versions of the product.
I had to update the firmware in this NVR in order for it to be compatible with the RLC-822A cameras that I bought at the same time. The fix is easy once you find out that you need it. (Refer to the Reolink website of course.) That update made the user interface completely different.
Generally it works fine whether you work direct from the NVR to a monitor, or via the PC APP or via the smart phone App. Each interface is a little different. The PC interface is perhaps the most convenient and almost as comprehensive as the direct interface. I found that on the PC I can see all 4 camera views at the same time, but only in low-res. If I switch to single camera mode on my PC, I can see any one single camera in glorious 8K vision (and sound!). Applies to both live and playback.
The Windows PC interface I suggest has not been programmed that efficiently, it’s very slow to load and slow to respond sometimes. My iPhone app is much quicker. Quite often the Windows playback just stops and I have to give it some sort of kick to get it restarted.
After the initial set up you don’t need to go near the NVR, so it can be hidden away in a closet along with all the cables that it attracts. Everything is controlled from your own PC.
The 2TB that comes with the NVR is enough for 6 days continuous recording of my 4 x 8MP cameras. You have the option of replacing the internal HDD with a 6TB SATA HDD, or you can plug in an external 6TB SATA HDD via the eSATA port. You’ll need to buy a suitable SATA HDD designed for surveillance AND an enclosure to put it in. The enclosure will supply the power it needs and also the eSATA interface to the NVR. Note that “SATA” is not quite the same as “eSATA”, that’s why you need the enclosure. Note also that you cannot connect an external HDD via the USB port.
I’m just reviewing the recorder of course, you’ll need to buy separate cameras, cables, crimping tool, conduits…etc. At the time Amazon gave a decent discount for adding the cameras to my basket at the same time as the NVR. (i.e. the discount is real…not a con!)
Reolink - Dispositivi con un ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo e tanto altro...

NVR-410 16CH 4K Hallo zusammen, ich habe den NVR nun seit 3 Wochen und wollte euch kurz ber meine Erfahrung sprechen.
Anfangs hatte ich dem gelieferten NVR ein Problem, dass er immer wieder gebootet hat. Hierzu habe mich an den Support gewendet. Hier wurde ich super Untersttzt und ich innerhalb eines Tages den neuen NVR bekommen 🙂
Mit dem neuen NVR klappt alles wunderbar und hier mchte mich nochmals fr die super Untersttzung seitens Reolink Support bedanken. Weiter so 🙂
Der NVR macht genau das, was er soll die Bedienung und Einrichtung ist super einfach und meine neuen D800 Kamera ist der Hammer und mit der Kombination des NVR einfach Perfekt 🙂
Great Recorder for Reolink Ecosystem The Reolink cameras are one of the best cameras that you can buy, especially at the price point they offer. Most of their cameras have the ability to record internally to the camera, but for some people they prefer to record to an external device which has a bigger storage capacity, this is where the NVR comes in.
This NVE can take up to 8 4K cameras, I set it up with 4x 5MP zoom cameras and has worked flawlessly, it was very a setup and go system, after plugging in the cameras they were automatically picked up and you could configure the recording schedule, motion zones, and other associated settings. One of the features that I find useful in the Reolink NVR that many other NVRs don’t have is the ability to record continously but also marks on the timeline where motion was detected, allowing to record continously but still easily see when motion was detected.
One of the best parts of the Reolink ecosystem is the app, the app for Reolink is by far one of the best from a CCTV vendor, it’s extremely easy to use and intuative making it suitable for all technical abilities.
Excellent and Reliable DVR This is an excellent networked CCTV recorder and can be added to an existing setup of Reolink cameras.
It provided 16 POE ports, but while it can record from a maximum of 16 cameras, they al don’t need to be directly connected to the unit, so for me it was ideal as I started with a few Reolink cameras using the on board storage and added the NVR at a later date.
Boots times are fairly quick and I use both the HDMI (via Cat5 extender) and apps to access the live feed.
Downloads were a problem with the older 7.x Windows software, where larger recordings are made from 24/7 recording. Smaller downloads were fine. But an email to Reolink support got me setup with 8.x beta software which has addressed the issue as well as making the downloads quicker for reviewing.
Recordings can be uploaded to an FTP and as well as downloaded to USB via one of the USB ports on the NVR, however the download itself has to be initiated via the on board interface, which isn’t the easiest to use, but I’ve not seen much better from other DVR makers.
Recordings are also done at both low and high quality so you can select what quality you want to view. The IOS app sometimes has issues connecting to the NVR especially when a lot of activity is happening, but it seems the NVR prioritises recording over playback which is preferable. Even with 24/7 recording motions events are marked which is helpful.
Overall its a great NVR if you already have Reolink cameras, and with updates it’ll only get better.
Outstanding quality Outstanding quality, fully satisfied with Reolink, after i purchased the first NVR for 8 cameras and seen the quality for this product I immediately purchased a second NVR with 8 cameras too for another house. I have already recommended Reolink to many friends. And should i need another camera i will not look elsewhere other than Reolink.
Over 2 years old, still working as good as the day I installed i I’ve had a few different CCTV systems from other manufacturers and never found them to be reliable or easy to use as this Reolink system. The NVR just works out if the box and on two occasions when I have needed support Reolink have been very good. I’ve had the NVR for about 2 years or more now and when I upgraded the firmware this week I had a problem. I contacted the support team via the Reolink website and they resolved the issue on the second reply after asking some basic questions.
Ottimo prodotto Sostiene le video camere (max 16) sia sulle linee Ethernet POE specificamente previste che su quella principale (non POE) di collegamento alla LAN. Si noti che le POE sono a 100Mb/s mentre la linea LAN principale (unica) a 1000Mb/s. Le video camere vengono viste in entrambe le configurazioni ma naturalmente il collegamento diretto alle POE 100Mb/s gestito meglio. In linea di massima il prodotto auto-configurante e “sente” subito le videocamere in rete locale, soprattutto se POE (funziona anche con videocamere (Reolink) non POE ma devono essere abilitate allo streaming 24h/7g) ma per impostarlo al meglio si richiedono comunque delle conoscenze tecniche di reti.
Reolink ormai è una garanzia! Risolti problemi della mia rete wifi sono pienamente soddisfatto di questo NVR.
In funzione 24h con:
1 rlc-410w collegata via ethernet
5 rlc-410w collegate in wifi
1 rlc-422w collegata via ethernet
1 E1 Pro collegata via WiFi
Immagini sempre fluide, registrazioni 24h senza problemi in 4M HD.
Notifiche via mail di allarmi o criticit.
Il firmware in lingua inglese ma cmq molto intuitivo e molto completo per il pieno controllo del sistema.
Costruito benissimo. Si distingue senza problemi da prodotti economici.
La possibilit di avere il poe su 16 ingressi ethernet garantita da un alimentatore molto robusto.
Il sistema si controlla senza problemi anche dall’app della casa madre.
Il supporto sempre garantito, ha gi ricevuto un paio di aggiornamenti.
Consigliatissimo!
Reolink Products. High end, excellent build, functionality & email responses. NVR first class I have four Reolink cameras. All worked out of the box. Excellent picture. Easy to set up on mobile, PC and tablet.
Following initially unnoticed vehicle damage to a wall, I reviewed the playback and sadly, it had been overwritten on the SD card. The motion detection ‘sees’ rain and we’ve had a lot of that! My first reaction was to position a C1 Pro looking through a window. Rain on window pane seen as motion! Night vision infra red reflects of the glass burning out the picture. Switch off the night vision and wow. The motion detection is excellent seeing a cat 20 metres away through the window because security lights switching on are seen as movement and provide a better picture than night vision.
Rain is still an issue so, try I thought I’d try an NVR8-410 using two mains powered wi-fi cameras. Uncertain as to how to set this system up as the NVR is primarily marketed as POE device. I can’t find an ON switch. To set it up, I connected it to my wi-fi network by plugging it into the router, plug in the supplied mouse, connect to a spare input on my monitor and power it up. Answer a few questions, log in to my network, pause puzzled at the screen asking to initiate the hard drive so ignore this, click next and there, listed’ are my two cameras. Fantastic. Tip from Reolink: they need to be logged in to the NVR so scroll right to find the ‘hidden’ log-in boxes. 30 minutes total and there are my cameras. Still learning how to use the software but it seems easy enough. It really is very good indeed.
Excellent service, super fast delivery and great produc We have been installing Reolink products for the past year here in the UK. We find them very good value for the money, easy to install and setup and works out of the box.
The reason we like the Reolink products is because they provide a free remote viewing app of which our customers find very easy to navigate with no subscription fees, the camera and recorder interface is very easy to use.
Most of the products are power over Ethernet so require no power supplies to the cameras when using with a Reolink network recorder, this saves time and money running cables and power to each camera.
Overall we are very happy with the product, the service and the support
We can confirm that we have tested nearly every item from the Reolink range and as of yet we have had no issues with them.

Niente di cui lamentarsi
Semplice, facile da utilizzare e senza nessun problema a patto si usare camere sempre della Reolink. Se poi lo trovate in offerta ( io sono stato fortunato ) prendetelo al volo. Reolink e’ una scommessa vincente anche contro marche ben pi famose e costose.

The motion detection is excellent seeing a cat 20 metres away through the window because security lights switching on are seen as movement and provide a better picture than night vision.
Rain is still an issue so, try I thought I’d try an NVR8-410 using two mains powered wi-fi cameras. Uncertain as to how to set this system up as the NVR is primarily marketed as POE device. I can’t find an ON switch. To set it up, I connected it to my wi-fi network by plugging it into the router, plug in the supplied mouse, connect to a spare input on my monitor and power it up. Answer a few questions, log in to my network, pause puzzled at the screen asking to initiate the hard drive so ignore this, click next and there, listed’ are my two cameras. Fantastic. Tip from Reolink: they need to be logged in to the NVR so scroll right to find the ‘hidden’ log-in boxes. 30 minutes total and there are my cameras. Still learning how to use the software but it seems easy enough. It really is very good indeed.
I can recommend their products unreserveably
We have been installing Reolink products for the past year here in the UK. We find them very good value for the money, easy to install and setup and works out of the box.
The reason we like the Reolink products is because they provide a free remote viewing app of which our customers find very easy to navigate with no subscription fees, the camera and recorder interface is very easy to use.
Most of the products are power over Ethernet so require no power supplies to the cameras when using with a Reolink network recorder, this saves time and money running cables and power to each camera.
Overall we are very happy with the product, the service and the support
We can confirm that we have tested nearly every item from the Reolink range and as of yet we have had no issues with them.
Thanks very much
