The Luminys R52-16PA4 is a 16-channel, 32MP-capable NVR built for commercial installations that need AI-driven footage search, extended-reach PoE, and recorder-side analytics ā without per-channel license fees. The 4TB HDD ships inside; you're recording on day one.
Built for the commercial installer
NDAA-compliant out of the box, the R52-16PA4 runs iMD, VCA, and Face Recognition directly on the recorder ā no separate server, no per-camera AI licensing to negotiate. LumiSearch+ lets you locate any target across all 16 channels of recorded footage using a reference image, searching by body shape, clothing color, and movement in seconds instead of hours. Ports 1-8 support LumiPower, extending PoE power and data up to 3,000 feet ā cuts the need for midspan injectors or separate power circuits on long camera runs to parking lots, loading docks, or outbuildings. ONVIF and RTSP interoperability cover third-party cameras where full Luminys integration isn't required.
