REOLINK NVS36 NO HDD (RLN36) (36 CHANNELS, 3 BAYS) - IP VIDEO RECORDER
Description Reolink NVS36 (RLN36)
36 channels in one box — a class that usually costs significantly more
NVS36 (RLN36) is built for 36 simultaneous recording channels with three hard drive bays — a scale that, for most manufacturers, only shows up in specialized corporate lines with their own licensing system and a much higher price of entry. Here it's a single recorder with no per-channel licensing on top.
Three HDD bays up to 16 TB each
With this many channels, the archive fills up faster than in a typical 8-16 camera system, so three drive bays aren't a luxury — they're a necessity. Three drives give either a huge combined archive or a mix of "main capacity plus redundancy" in case one drive fails, which matters a great deal at this scale.
Ships with no drives — expected for equipment of this class
The recorder sells with no preinstalled storage: an integrator or owner picks drives independently to match specific retention requirements, choosing either standard surveillance-rated drives or enterprise-class storage with higher reliability under round-the-clock load — a decision worth making deliberately at this scale rather than accepting whatever ships by default.
12 MP recording and extended network protocols
Support for recording up to 12 MP per channel combined with HTTP, HTTPS, TCP/IP, UDP, DHCP, P2P, UPnP, RTSP, SMTP, SSL/TLS, DNS, DDNS, NTP, and FTP protocols gives detail sufficient for most surveillance tasks and a full toolkit for integrating with a corporate network or cloud access.
Two monitors and access control at this scale
Support for two simultaneous monitors and up to 20 accounts lets you split viewing across several security-post workstations and grant administration separate access with no shared password — important specifically at sites where several security shifts might be watching the system at once.
A 310×330×48 mm housing weighing 2.26 kg
Housing dimensions of 310×330×48 mm and a weight of 2.26 kg exceed the lineup's smaller models, but they're modest for a device covering 36 channels and three drive bays — the metal-and-plastic build is meant for continuous operation in an equipment cabinet alongside other server hardware.
Client software for Windows, Mac OS, iOS, Android, plus a 12-month warranty
Viewing and control are available across all the major platforms — Windows, Mac OS, iOS, Android — and a 12-month warranty covers factory defects and early component failures during the first year of round-the-clock operation, when the load on the hardware is highest.
Who a device at this scale is for
NVS36 is the pick for an owner of a shopping complex, a multi-floor business center, or an industrial facility where camera count is approaching or exceeding 30 and where a centralized solution in one recorder is significantly easier to maintain than several smaller-capacity systems. Tell us your current and planned camera count and the number of floors or buildings involved, and we can advise whether this much capacity is justified or whether a smaller model would do.
