🔧 RuggedCams Auto-HD DVR: Smart Surveillance, Built Rugged
Automatically detects HD‑SDI and most legacy analog cameras—verify compatibility with specific brands or models.
The Auto-HD DVR from Rugged Cams is the only DVR we know of that turns every camera input into a universal, auto-sensing, auto-configuring channel—no manual setup required. This means easier installs, faster upgrades, and fewer headaches.
Available in 8 or 16 channel models, and offered in three different chassis configurations, the Auto-HD adapts to your recording needs—whether that’s two archive drives, six onboard drives, or enterprise-level RAID storage.
🚀 Upgrade-Ready, Without Rewiring
Compatible with analog 960H and HD‑SDI cameras—upgrade your cameras later without swapping power or coaxial cables.
🎯 Accurate Signal Equalization Per Channel
Each channel features built-in signal equalization to help compensate for signal loss or interference over longer cable runs—ensuring cleaner video from every camera, every time.
📡 Coax Distance Performance
Supports HD‑SDI video over coax up to ~300–400 ft (typical) depending on cable quality—plenty of range for most installations.
