TraceSearch
This NVR Supports TraceSearch
Search for specific people or vehicles across your camera system!
With TraceSearch, finding someone across your facility is as easy as drawing a box. Just highlight a person or vehicle, and TraceSearch finds them across all your cameras. No more scrubbing through hours of footage for incident reports!
To learn more about TraceSearch check out our full TraceSearch Page
TraceSearch requires SCW cameras with built in AI person and vehicle detection setup and enabled.

24 PoE ports & Dual LAN Power
The Admiral Pro 32ch v5 supports both 24 built in PoE ports and Dual LAN functionality
You can connect up to 24 cameras directly to the NVR, keeping them fully isolated from your main LAN. This best-practice design improves bandwidth efficiency, security, and overall system reliability. Cameras 25-32can be connected through an external PoE switch to the NVR’s second LAN port, maintaining the same network isolation and protection.
Here's a wiring diagram for how you would connect cameras 25-32:
You can also choose to put more cameras on external switches - but you must override the built in ports.
RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks)
This NVR has RAID.
RAID stands for Redundant Array of Independent Drives/Disks. RAID is a feature that turns a set of independent disks into a single array, in basic terms sharing data between the disks. RAID is primarily used as a form of gaining redundancy in the event of hard drive failures. There are many levels of RAID which dictate how much storage is available and how much hard drive redundancy protection you have. The most common RAID setup is RAID5, which allows a single drive to fail without losing footage. To learn more please visit our knowledge base article on RAID for surveillance.
Motion Detection, Alerts, and VCA
This Admiral NVR is a motion detection NVR. Feel free to read more about these features by clicking on the link, but here's a quick synopsis:
Alerts and Notifications:
Get email alerts with snapshot images of motion detection alerts or VCA events
Set a schedule to get emails only on the hours of the day you want.
Get Push Notifications to the SCW Go Application for Android and iPhone.
Automatically upload snapshot images via FTP
Recording:
Create your own customizable record schedule, including recording based on the day of the week, hours of the day, or even choose not to record for periods of time. Set constant recording during business hours and only motion during closed hours.
Motion, VCA, or 24/7 Recording - Record based on motion detection, VCA (video content analysis), or set the system to record 24/7. You can even record based on alarm inputs!
Motion Detection You Can Use in Court - If your system is set to record based on motion or VCA events, you can have a 60-second pre-event buffer to grab footage prior to the detection. You can also set the system to record up to ten minutes after an incident is detected. Motion detection footage does not "time out" and stop recording mid-scene. Motion Clips cannot be deleted by employees or other users.
Customizable Motion Detection Recording through VCA events:
VCA features vary by camera model, and can include:
Intrusion Detection - Monitor areas with precision, define zones, set time thresholds, and sensitivity.
Line-Crossing - Create virtual lines to detect people or objects crossing doors, entrances, and more.
People Counting - Determine how many people are entering and exiting. Keep and review daily logs.
Audio Detection - Listens for rises or falls in volume, and sudden loud noises.
Vandal Detection - Get alerts based on tampering detection, defocusing, or any dramatic scene changes.
Analysis:
Smart Search - Quickly review footage by filtering by motion detected in specific areas of the screen, by the face captured, by an intrusion into certain areas, or by line-crossing
People Counting Statistics - view traffic stats on your NVR or download a CSV file
Commercial-Grade Features
The Admiral Pro 32 Channel NVR is part of our commercial-grade NVR line. Feel free to read more about these features and what commercial-grade means to us, but here's a quick synopsis, as to how it relates to NVRs:
Surveillance-Rated Hard Drive - NVRs need Surveillance-Rated Hard Drives, as PC drives will overheat and fail.
Store 40% more data with H.265 video compression or switch back to H.264, if you need H.264 third-party integration support.
Passes vibration and surge testing up to 6,000 volts - SCW NVRs can withstand vibration and surges up to 6,000 volts.
Cybersecurity Protections - hackers can't easily see SCW cameras because they run on a special, isolated network created by the NVR. (For more information and a history of some of the larger cybersecurity attacks that have affected the industry, please see our guide on best practices for preventing IOT hacks.)
4K at 30 FPS Capable - Sufficient Bitrate (processing power) to Record Smooth Video
Easy 1 Click Firmware Update Process - Maintenance made easy.
750-Foot POE Extended Transmission: the old 300-foot limitations are a thing of the past.
No Recording Delay - Even when recording on motion.
ONVIF compliant - this NVR complies with the open-industry standard ONVIF for both Profile S (video & audio streaming) and Profile Q POE ports (you can plug-and-play with other Profile Q compliant cameras).
Redundant NAS - this NVR can extend its storage or mirror its contents onto a second location on a NAS (networked attached storage) device
3 or 5 Year Warranty
The Admiral Pro 32 Channel NVR comes with a 3-year warranty. This warranty can also be upgraded to 5 years. We recommend doing so for commercial clients.

Dual HDMI Out
This recording device has HDMI Out.
You can plug this recording device into any HDMI enabled television. This means that you don't need to purchase a monitor unless you want to; you can connect a monitor with either HDMI or VGA cable.
Q: What if I plug in both the HDMI? Can I watch on two screens?
A: On the Admiral Pro 32ch v5, there are 2 HDMI outputs. Each of these can be configured to show different cameras, but only one display shows the mouse at a time. On the Admiral Pro 32 v5, there is also 2 VGA outputs, these VGA outputs are mirrored to the HDMI. So VGA1 is mirrored to HDMI1 and VGA2 to HDMI2.
VGA Out
This recording device has VGA Out.
You can plug this recording device into any VGA enabled monitor.
Q: Do I have to use a monitor?
A: No, you can use either a monitor or a TV, as explained below. But, you don't actually have to use either. You can manage nearly all your settings remotely via our PC or Mac apps or via the web-interface. Quite a few of our customers hide their recorders or put them in a safe with a cable pass-through, to prevent them from potential theft. This is a perfectly fine solution. You will probably want to plug a monitor in to make your initial setup easier.
Redundant NAS Support
NAS supports allows you to add an NFS compatible NAS to your NVR for redundant recording. This NAS will record in real time with your NVR to help limit the lost footage in the event of hard drive failure. SCW offers a 2 bay NAS and a 4 bay NAS option.
To learn more about setting up a NAS and functionality check out our guide.

Not Sanctioned. On Oct 7th, 2019, the US government placed sanctions on major providers in the industry for human rights abuses. Some or all Honeywell, Hikvision, Dahua, Lorex, Swann, LTS, Annke, Alibi, Laview, WBox, Interlogix, Flir, Bosch, ICRealtime, QSee, Panasonic, ADT, Indigo Vision, Montavue, and many more security products are included. SCW's Admiral and Imperial line equipment is not sanctioned.
These sanctions prevent these companies from using US technology or standards in future software or firmware releases and from using US patents in future hardware models. This means that they are going to face a situation where they either don't update firmware for cybersecurity concerns or lose ONVIF compliance or features when their firmware is updated. For these reasons, we recommend staying away from these brands.
For more information and full documentation, please see our article on NDAA and US Sanctions of Hikvision, Dahua, and their OEM brands.
