The Luminys R3 Starter Series NVR (R32-16PA10) brings 16-channel 4K recording and integrated camera-side analytics to commercial security deployments -- without the overhead of a full enterprise VMS. Sixteen built-in PoE ports mean no separate switch required, and the pre-installed 10TB drive gets you recording the same day it goes in the rack.

Built for the commercial installer

NDAA-compliant and ONVIF-compatible, the R32-16PA10 fits into mixed-vendor camera environments without reconfiguring your whole stack. The 1U chassis ships with rack mounting brackets. Two SATA bays support up to 20TB total storage, so you can expand capacity later without swapping the recorder. LumiCloud Lite is included out of the box; a paid LumiCloud subscription unlocks AI-based cloud event storage and 30-day rolling archive.

Key features

System requirements

Cameras connect directly to the NVR's 16 PoE ports (up to 25.5W per port, 115W total PoE budget). A single GbE uplink connects the NVR to the customer's network for remote access via LumiViewer or LumiCloud. HDMI or VGA monitor required for local initial setup. Storage is pre-installed -- second SATA bay is open for a second drive up to 10TB.

FAQs

Does this NVR require a separate PoE switch?
No. The R32-16PA10 has 16 built-in PoE ports (IEEE 802.3 af/at) powering cameras directly off the recorder. Total PoE budget is 115W with up to 25.5W per port -- enough for most commercial IP cameras without any additional switching hardware.
Is this NVR NDAA Section 889 compliant?
Yes. The R32-16PA10 is NDAA-compliant, making it appropriate for government and federally-funded projects.
What cameras work with this NVR?
Any ONVIF-compatible IP camera connects via Plug-and-Play. Analytics by Camera (iMD, VCA, Face Detection, LPR) requires Luminys cameras with edge analytics -- processing happens at the camera, not the NVR.
How much total storage does this NVR support?
The R32-16PA10 ships with a 10TB HDD installed. The second SATA bay accepts a second drive up to 10TB, for a maximum of 20TB total on-device storage.
What is LumiCloud Lite and does it require a subscription?
LumiCloud Lite is included free and covers remote live viewing and alarm management. Cloud video recording requires a paid LumiCloud HD Video Unity Channel license (LCL-HDV-U, annual per camera).
How many channels support analytics simultaneously?
Intelligent Motion Detection runs on all 16 channels. VCA on 8 channels. Face Detection and LPR each on 4 channels. Analytics run at the camera edge -- no impact on NVR recording bandwidth.
What is included in the box?
R3 Starter Series NVR, power cable (USA 3-pin, 15A/120VAC), 2x rack mounting brackets, USB mouse, screws, anti-slip pads, 2x SATA data cables, 1x SATA power cable, CAT5E Ethernet cable, and quick start guide.
