Need the PDF datasheet? Get it on WhatsApp →The Uniview NVR302-B-IQ Series is a 2-HDD network video recorder offered in three sizes: NVR302-09B-IQ (9-ch), NVR302-16B-IQ (16-ch) and NVR302-32B-IQ (32-ch). All three record cameras up to 12MP with Ultra 265 / H.265 / H.264 compression, run built-in face detection, face comparison and vehicle detection (LPR), and output simultaneously over 4K HDMI and VGA. Two SATA bays each take a hard disk up to 24 TB, and the local interface is available in 38 languages including Spanish (Latin America), Portuguese (Brazil) and French.
Is this the right recorder for you?
Plain-language guide for buyers and installers — based only on what this recorder actually does.
- PoE ports — cameras need a separate PoE switch (we bundle one at combo price)
- RS-485 / RS-232 serial control ports — both are not present on this series
- Alarm in/out wiring for sirens or sensors — the physical interface list shows none on this series
- Full Smart-feature channel counts with third-party cameras — deepest face AI (up to 8-ch) requires Uniview cameras; normal/third-party cameras are limited to 1-ch face detection, 2-ch SIP or 4-ch UMD

Key Features
Complete list from the official datasheet.
Finds faces and plates. Holds months of footage.
The two capabilities that make a big multi-channel deployment easy to run.
Half the storage, same image
Ultra 265 compression cuts recording size dramatically versus H.264 — on each 24 TB disk you keep footage for weeks longer, or record more cameras at higher resolution.
Two disks, twice the runway
Two independent SATA bays each take a disk up to 24 TB — up to 48 TB of local storage without RAID complexity, built for busy 16/32-channel sites recording up to 12MP.

Who uses it, where to install it and how to size it
Written for the NVR302-09B-IQ, NVR302-16B-IQ and NVR302-32B-IQ from the official datasheet: 9, 16 or 32 channels, 160 Mbps incoming bandwidth, 2 SATA bays up to 24 TB each, recording up to 12 MP, no built-in PoE.
Who it is for
- Shops, offices and schools with up to 9 cameras (09B-IQ) — Nine channels with 160 Mbps of bandwidth leave about 17.8 Mbps per camera, enough for 8 MP or 12 MP cameras, and two disks give long retention for a small site.
- Mid-size sites and multi-building projects (16B-IQ, 32B-IQ) — Warehouses, hotels, factories and campuses: the cameras connect through your own PoE switches over the 2 gigabit ports, and the 32B-IQ shows up to 32 cameras on one screen.
- Retail chains and loss prevention — People Counting Report and Heat Map show store traffic, POS text can be overlaid on all channels to match a sale to the video, and Face Snapshot Search finds a person without watching hours of footage.
- Gates, parking and logistics yards — With Uniview LPR cameras, Vehicle Detection plus Motor and Non-Motor Vehicle Search work on the recorder, with up to 5 vehicle picture libraries and 25,000 vehicle pictures in total for allow and block lists.
Where and how to install
- Rack or shelf, locked away — The unit is 380 × 315 × 53 mm and about 2 kg without disks. For a 19-inch cabinet order the RM-1U-380 2-HDD 1U rack mount; otherwise use a solid shelf. Install it in a locked room or cabinet so nobody can remove the recorder and the disks.
- Keep the disks below 40 °C — The recorder itself runs from -10 °C to 55 °C, but the datasheet says the environment should not exceed 40 °C when the disks are in use. Leave free air around the case, do not stack it under a hot switch, and in hot climates use an air-conditioned room or a ventilated cabinet with fans.
- PoE switch and cabling — There are no PoE ports, so plan a PoE switch with enough ports and PoE budget for your cameras and a gigabit uplink to one of the recorder's 2 gigabit RJ45 ports (1000 M). Keep every copper run from switch to camera under 100 m; use a fibre SFP link or a second switch for buildings farther away.
- Power and UPS — The recorder uses a DC 12 V / 3 A adapter and draws ≤ 12 W without disks. Put the recorder, its disks and the PoE switch on the same UPS: if the switch loses power the cameras go dark even while the recorder keeps running.
- Monitor, audio and USB — Connect the main monitor by HDMI (up to 4K) and a second one by VGA if needed: both outputs work at the same time. The RCA audio in and out give 1-channel two-way audio, and the front USB 2.0 port is handy for a mouse or for exporting clips to a USB drive.
Planning table: 09B-IQ, 16B-IQ or 32B-IQ
All three share 160 Mbps of incoming bandwidth and two 24 TB bays, so the extra channels of the bigger models come with less bandwidth and fewer days per camera. Whatever the model, a recorder running at the full 160 Mbps fills 48 TB in about 27.8 days.

| Retention on 48 TB, all channels at 8 Mbps (days) | ≈ 62 | ≈ 35 | — (256 Mbps > 160 Mbps) |
- Pick the 09B-IQ for up to 9 cameras: even at 8 Mbps each, two 24 TB disks keep about 62 days.
- Pick the 16B-IQ for 10 to 16 cameras; 16 cameras at 4 Mbps keep about 69 days on 48 TB.
- Pick the 32B-IQ for 17 to 32 cameras, but plan about 5 Mbps per camera on average (4 MP in H.265 or Ultra 265) to stay within 160 Mbps.
Retention = total disk TB × 10^12 ÷ (cameras × bitrate ÷ 8 × 86400 s), continuous recording on both disks filled to 24 TB, no reserve. 4 Mbps is an assumed average for a 4 MP H.265 camera, 8 Mbps for an 8 MP camera. Decoding figures are @30 fps from the official datasheet; live view of many cameras uses sub-streams.
