SKU:
LM-R32-16PA

The R32-16PA puts a 16-channel 4K NVR with 16 built-in PoE ports in a 1U rack slot for SMB-scale deployments. Cameras run off the NVR directly -- no separate PoE switch needed -- and analytics run at the camera edge, not on the recorder, keeping the box responsive as the channel count fills.

Built for the commercial installer

NDAA compliant and FCC certified, the R32-16PA covers bids with federal supply chain requirements. ONVIF compatibility means it accepts third-party cameras alongside native Luminys units on the same job. Two SATA bays take up to 10TB per drive (20TB total) without requiring an external storage module. LumiCloud Lite is included -- basic remote access, health monitoring, and event alerts require no extra license.

Key features

  • 16 PoE ports built in: IEEE 802.3 af/at, 115W total budget, 25.5W max per port -- cameras plug straight into the NVR, no switch required
  • 4K recording across all 16 channels: supports up to 8MP per channel with 160 Mbps recording bandwidth to handle a full house load
  • Camera-side analytics: Intelligent Motion Detection (16CH), VCA (8CH), Face Detection (4CH), and LPR (4CH) -- processing stays at the camera, not the recorder
  • H.265 compression: cuts storage consumption versus H.264 and extends retention on the same 20TB capacity
  • NDAA compliant: clears federal and state supply chain requirements without extra documentation
  • LumiCloud Lite included: remote access, real-time monitoring, and device health visibility from the LumiViewer app at no additional cost

Analytics by Camera

When paired with compatible Luminys cameras, the R32-16PA supports Intelligent Motion Detection (16 channels), Video Content Analysis (8 channels), Face Detection (4 channels), and License Plate Recognition (4 channels). Processing happens at the camera edge. Smart Search filters footage by target classification, channel, time range, and event type.

Cloud and remote management

LumiCloud Lite ships with every unit and covers remote access, event alerts, and device health monitoring. Upgrade to a LumiCloud HD Video Unity license (SKU: LCL-HDV-U) for cloud video recording and AI-based search across multiple sites.

Does the R32-16PA need a separate PoE switch to power cameras?
No. All 16 PoE ports are built into the NVR (IEEE 802.3 af/at). The total PoE budget is 115W with a maximum of 25.5W per port, which covers most Luminys 8MP cameras. Run your camera cables directly to the NVR.
What cameras are compatible with the R32-16PA?
ONVIF-compliant cameras are supported. Luminys cameras connect plug-and-play and unlock analytics features (iMD, VCA, Face Detection, LPR). Third-party cameras can be added via ONVIF or RTSP with standard functionality.
How much storage does the R32-16PA support?
Two SATA bays, each supporting up to 10TB, for a maximum of 20TB. Hard drives are not included and must be purchased separately.
Is the R32-16PA NDAA compliant?
Yes. The R32-16PA is NDAA compliant and FCC certified, making it suitable for government and commercial applications with federal supply chain requirements.
Do the analytics features require special cameras?
Yes. Camera-side analytics (Intelligent Motion Detection, VCA, Face Detection, LPR) require compatible Luminys cameras. The NVR offloads processing to the camera edge rather than running it locally, so the camera must support these features.
What is LumiCloud Lite, and do I need a paid subscription for remote access?
LumiCloud Lite is included at no charge. Covers remote access, event alerts, and device health monitoring via browser or LumiViewer mobile app. Cloud video recording requires a LumiCloud HD Video Unity license (SKU: LCL-HDV-U), sold separately.
What is the maximum simultaneous decoding output for the R32-16PA?
The R32-16PA decodes two channels at 8MP/30fps or eight channels at 1080p/30fps simultaneously for live view output. HDMI supports up to 4K (3840x2160); VGA supports up to 1920x1080.
