Does it work with my existing cameras?

It is always the first question, and it is the right one to ask: do I have to buy all new cameras? No. Awera is built to work with the cameras you already own.

If your cameras are already on the network, you are set

Nearly every modern CCTV camera speaks a standard language - RTSP or ONVIF - and runs through an NVR or DVR. Awera connects to those existing feeds. That covers Hikvision, Dahua, CP Plus, Reolink, and effectively any RTSP/ONVIF camera on the market.

What actually changes

Nothing gets torn out. A small on-site Awera box connects to the feeds you already have and does the watching. Your footage stays on your premises; only alerts, clips and reports leave the building. No rewiring, no new cameras, no cloud upload of your raw video.

Keep your cameras. Add the brain.

The one honest check

What about my recorder and my internet?

Your existing NVR or DVR keeps doing its job - recording, exactly as it does today. Awera reads the same feeds alongside it. And because the analysis happens on the on-site box, your raw video is not streamed to the cloud, so it does not eat your internet connection or leave the building. Only small alerts and the odd clip go out.

Occasionally a camera is offline, misaimed, or quietly recording nothing - and you would want to know that regardless. That is exactly what the free camera-health audit is for: we check every camera and confirm what is compatible. Almost always, it all is.
