DH-XVR5116HS-5M-I3/T is a 16-channel Penta-brid WizSense digital video recorder built to elevate video surveillance for medium to large systems that need extensive channel capacity with genuine facial recognition. Made by Dahua, this recorder is part of the XVR5000-I3 series and is well suited for larger businesses and properties that need sharper coverage with smarter AI features.
At the core of DH-XVR5116HS-5M-I3/T is its Penta-brid design, supporting HDCVI, AHD, TVI, CVBS, and IP video inputs. The XVR supports up to 5MP HDCVI camera and 6MP IP camera input, with the auto signal recognition feature making operation more friendly and convenient across mixed camera types.
Channel capacity is where DH-XVR5116HS-5M-I3/T truly stands out. With 16 analog video input channels, plus up to 24 IP camera channels at up to 6MP each and a maximum 128 Mbps incoming bandwidth, this recorder handles substantial hybrid camera deployments across larger properties.
Smart detection is another genuine strength. DH-XVR5116HS-5M-I3/T supports up to 16 channels of SMD Plus for analog channels or 24-channel SMD by camera, along with up to 2 channels of Perimeter Protection that automatically filters out false alarms caused by animals, rustling leaves, and bright lights.
Facial recognition takes this recorder a step further. DH-XVR5116HS-5M-I3/T offers up to 2 channels of human face recognition, extracting facial features from captured faces and comparing them against a database for accurate identification and event retrieval.
Compression efficiency is built directly into the system. DH-XVR5116HS-5M-I3/T uses Smart H.265+/H.265 compression that can reduce bit rate and storage requirements by up to 90% compared to H.264, along with AI Coding that reduces bit rate by more than 50% without any loss of decoding compatibility.
Communication features round out the package nicely. DH-XVR5116HS-5M-I3/T supports two-way talk over coaxial cable across channels for seamless real-time interaction between the camera, client, and recorder, along with professional-grade 4K HDMI video output.
Storage is genuinely flexible too. DH-XVR5116HS-5M-I3/T includes 1 HDD bay supporting up to 16TB of storage capacity, giving users substantial space for continuous recording across all sixteen channels.
Whether securing a large business or property, DH-XVR5116HS-5M-I3/T delivers dependable 16-channel 5MP recording, accurate SMD Plus detection, and genuine facial recognition in one WizSense recorder.
