  • Looking for HD BNC security cameras that are compatible with Honeywell HQA Hybrid 4MP DVRs? Or maybe you are looking for a replacement DVR that works with your existing coax cable and Honeywell coax cameras?

    A customer recently contacted me that was looking for a 180 degree camera that was compatible with Honeywell hybrid DVRs. He specifically had the HRHT4164 model. Honeywell makes DVRs similar to our Viewtron hybrid DVRs that work with older analog CCTV cameras as well as newer HD over Coax security cameras.

    These are the model numbers of the Honeywell HQA hybrid series DVRs.
    HRHT4041, HRHT4042, HRHT4082, HRHT4084, HRHT4162, HRHT4164, HRHT4166, HRHT41612

    According to the Honeywell HQA DVR specification, these DVRs work with AHD, HD-TVI, and HD-CVI format cameras up to 4MP resolution.

    Want to Upgrade your CCTV Camera System to IP?

    Analog to IP video converter

    If you are interested in upgrading your Honeywell DVR camera system to an IP camera system, but you have coax cable run to locations that is difficult to replace, please watch the above video and take a look at our Viewtron analog to IP video converter.

    IP video encoder allows you to upgrade your CCTV system

    The Viewtron IP video encoder is a great solution if you want to upgrade your old Honeywell coax camera system to a modern Viewtron NVR IP camera system, but you have a few coaxial cable runs that you are unable to replace with CAT5 / CAT6 network cable. The above diagram illustrates how to use the IP video encoder in this very typical situation.

    This is how it works.

    • There are two coax cable runs that the customer does not want to replace because they are very hard to get to. The existing coaxial cable is left in place for the two analog CCTV cameras on the right (gray cameras).
    • The customer uses their existing power supply box to power the analog cameras
    • The BNC connector ends of the two coax cable runs are plugged into the BNC input of a video encoder.
    • The RJ-45 Ethernet connection of each the video converters is plugged into a PoE port on the Viewtron NVR.
    • The Viewtron analog to IP converter is powered by the NVR’s Power over Ethernet port.
    • The analog cameras are now seen as a Viewtron AI security camera on the NVR. All of the IP camera and AI functions work exactly the same as the native AI security cameras.
    • All of the new camera locations and areas where the coax cable makes sense to replace use CAT5 / CAT6 cable, and the Viewtron IP cameras are hard wired to the PoE ports on the NVR (white cameras on the left).

    AI Software Functions

    As mentioned, the Viewtron IP video server enables human detection and vehicle detection functions on your analog camera. You also have the option to enable face detection / facial recognition if you are using the converter with a Viewtron NVR.

    Important Note! You must choose between human detection / vehicle detection or face detection modes when you are configuring your video server. Just like Viewtron AI security cameras, the video server / encoder can not to face detection AND human / vehicle detection. The human detection / vehicle detection and face detection / facial recognition are two different AI models and modes.
