In shopping for a new NVR, I came across the LTS VSN7208-P8 which is advertised as NDAA compliant. It is my understanding that LTS recorders were generally made by Hikvision but apparently not the Pro-VS series. Does anyone know who might be making these NVRs or have any experience in using them?

Yes, we have 2 8 port dvrs and 16 cams, all PRO-VS series.
If you download the manual in the link above and look at page 58-59 you will see the country of CHINA.
The DVR's call home to China. Caution: do not sign up for the hardcoded cloud account "STAR4LIVE" because that tracks to China.

How could this be NDAA compliant?
 
We have one in use at our office and have no complaints. We have also deployed their Pro-X line with good success.
