System K, a provider of advanced solutions leveraging video and AI technologies within the Saxa Group (hereinafter 'System K'), announces the launch of 'NVR-Pro,' a non-stop recorder appliance for surveillance camera recording systems, in collaboration with Newtech Co., Ltd. (hereinafter 'Newtech').

This product combines System K's video management system 'SK VMS' with Newtech's long-established, high-reliability storage and server technology. The 'non-stop' concept aims to minimize the risk of recording interruptions through SK VMS's failover functionality and high-reliability hardware.

Targeting facilities such as educational institutions, medical facilities, government agencies, data centers, large-scale sites, and manufacturing plants—where continuous operation of recording systems is essential—NVR-Pro delivers a video surveillance infrastructure designed for 24/7 stable operation, rapid maintenance support, and long-term usability.

System K's Video Platform

Background of the Collaboration

In recent years, as crime prevention, safety management, and operational monitoring have become more sophisticated, video surveillance systems are increasingly required to offer not only 'high image quality,' 'long-term storage,' and 'multi-site management,' but also high availability—ensuring recording continues even during system outages.

At the same time, surveillance management systems involve closely interrelated components such as software, servers, storage, networks, and maintenance frameworks. Stable post-deployment operation therefore requires optimization from both the VMS and hardware perspectives.

To meet these market demands, System K is launching the 'NVR-Pro,' a non-stop recorder, combining SK VMS's recording and failover capabilities with Newtech's high-quality, high-reliability hardware and nationwide on-site maintenance support, aiming to reduce the risk of recording interruptions.

Key Features of the Non-Stop NVR-Pro

### Integrated NVR with SK VMS

NVR-Pro is a recording appliance equipped with the SK VMS video management system. It runs on Ubuntu Server and features a management interface, enhancing operational manageability as a recording server.

### Two Models: 4-Bay and 8-Bay

Available in two configurations: the 4-bay 'Pro-R128-Nrec4K' and the 8-bay 'Pro-R128-Nrec8K,' allowing selection based on site scale.

The Pro-R128-Nrec4K is designed for mid-sized sites, while the Pro-R128-Nrec8K is suitable for large-scale facilities, centralized headquarters monitoring, and integrated multi-site operations. Both models support up to 128 camera connections and feature high-reliability designs for 24/7 continuous recording.

### Enhanced Recording Continuity via Failover Configuration

SK VMS's failover functionality enables a healthy server to take over camera recording from a failed server, ensuring uninterrupted recording during failures.

For example, in a 128-camera setup, two NVR-Pro units can be deployed, each managing 64 cameras. If one server fails, the other seamlessly takes over the recording, minimizing impact on surveillance operations.

### High-Reliability Hardware from Newtech

Newtech is a domestic hardware manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in the storage and server fields. For the non-stop NVR-Pro, it leverages its quality control and high-reliability design, including component selection for 24/7 continuous operation, hardware RAID, disk inspection, and aging tests.

This ensures stable disk performance, long-term operability, and rapid recovery during failures—critical for surveillance camera recording applications.

### Nationwide On-Site Maintenance Support

This product offers on-site maintenance services through Newtech and its associated support network. Customers can choose from maintenance plans tailored to operational needs, including Silver On-Site (weekday support) and Gold On-Site (24/7, 365-day support).

On-site hardware replacement, failure analysis, and coordination with support desks help minimize system downtime and reduce operational burden. Extended maintenance support is available for up to seven years.

Use Cases

The non-stop NVR-Pro is ideal for environments where minimizing recording interruption risks is critical:

- Universities and research institutions - Medical facilities - Government agencies and public facilities - Data centers - Large commercial complexes - Manufacturing plants - Logistics warehouses - Centralized headquarters and multi-site monitoring systems

Future Developments

System K and Newtech will continue to leverage their respective strengths to advance integrated solutions combining hardware, software, and maintenance support for video surveillance systems.

In the future, they aim to strengthen kitting, maintenance support, and sales channel collaboration to expand the high-reliability video surveillance platform centered on SK VMS.
