What is Uniview ColorHunter technology?

Uniview ColorHunter is UNV's proprietary 24/7 full-colour night vision technology. It uses a large F1.0 aperture lens, a 1/1.8-inch back-illuminated CMOS sensor, warm white light illumination, and Wise-ISP software processing to deliver vivid, full-colour video footage in extremely low-light conditions — without switching to black-and-white IR mode.

Are Uniview CCTV cameras legal to use in Australia?

Do Uniview IP cameras require a NVR?

Most Uniview IP cameras are designed to work with a compatible Uniview NVR (Network Video Recorder), which stores and manages footage. However, many models also support onboard MicroSD card recording (up to 512GB) and cloud/NAS storage, allowing standalone operation. For a complete plug-and-play solution, consider our Uniview Camera Kits that include matched NVRs.

What resolution options are available in Uniview CCTV cameras?

Uniview CCTV cameras are available in 2MP (Full HD 1080p), 4MP, 5MP, 6MP, and 8MP (4K Ultra HD) resolutions. Higher-resolution models like the 8MP 4K cameras offer exceptional detail for large areas, car parks, and commercial premises, while 2MP and 4MP options are cost-effective choices for residential use.

Do Uniview cameras support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
