I have some queries on the EMPIRETECANDY products on the AliExpress page; Although the questions are meant for EMPIRETECANDY, I welcome any seniors who can answer them as well.
- Is TEKEMPIRE brand the same as Dahua? Meaning the matching model no. will have the exact same features? This is so that I can download the corresponding datasheet and user manual from official Dahua site.
- If I were to purchase the TEKEMPIRE brand, will I brick the NVR if I click “update” from the firmware update page?
- I am comparing between NVR4208-8P-4KS2 US$270.99 and NVR5216-4KS2_V2 US$272.64 from EMPIRETECANDY AliExpress; one comes with 8 POE ports and 1 comes with a Gigabit port only;
- I understand that the difference between the 2 is that NVR with “8P” has 8x POE ports, whilst for the NVR without “8P”, I would need to connect the Gigabit port to a separate POE Network Switch;
- Question is, will there be any performance difference between 1 with direct POE ports versus 1 without direct POE ports?
- How about configuration difference? Assuming I am buying an unmanaged POE network switch to connect the 8x IP Cam. Is there any difference in the configuration effort between the NVR with direct POE ports versus the NVR without POE ports?
- For TEKEMPIRE brand NVR5216-4KS2_V2:
- Does it comes with 19” rack mount bracket?
- Will this model support my existing Vivotek POE IP Cams?
- Is there any particular HDD brand and model that is most recommended for this NVR?
