Same summary

The Ubiquiti 50-channel UNVR 4K UniFi video recorder is suitable for more demanding home users and owners of small to medium-sized business facilities who want comprehensive, centralized and scalable IP camera control. The capacity allows for the management of a larger number of cameras and long-term storage of recordings, which is especially welcome if the system is expected to grow or upgrade in the future.
