performance. The Portal Server and/or the NVRs are delivered with all software installed or
as a software-only option. The NVR comes in standard and standalone versions as explained
below. The only difference is in functionality. Both record either 10 or 40 concurrent streams
depending on the license you purchase. Both versions can be expanded to include multiple,
additional NVRs so that your recording capacity is virtually unlimited.

NVR Hardware

The NVR is comprised of both hardware and software. If you purchased the hardware/
software combination from VBrick, each platform (standard or standalone) comes fully
loaded with NVR software. The following table shows the hardware configuration relative to
the number of purchased licenses. The license file determines the total maximum concurrent
recordings allowed. In a standard NVR installation the NVR license file is stored on the Portal
Server ; in a standalone NVR installation the NVR license file is stored on the Standalone NVR.
