Bosch NVR are use for  small and medium businesses that already have gone digital, the DIVAR network 2000 (16 channels), 3000 and 5000 (both 32 channels) are cost-effective ways to invest in a future-proof IP video surveillance system that can be scaled as their business grows. Because of its scalability, the complete video surveillance system becomes more durable. Thanks to a built-in Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch, connecting IP cameras to these network video surveillance recorders requires no separate power adaptors, making installation quick and easy. The PoE switch can supply power to a maximum of 16 connected cameras. Each camera automatically receives its IP address from the recorder to enable simple plug-and-play operation.

The DIVAR hybrid 3000 and 5000 models are cost-effective recording devices for businesses with an existing analog video surveillance solution that they would like to upgrade to IP one step at a time. It is possible to replace all analog cameras over time as all 32 available channels can be equipped with network IP video surveillance cameras. A maximum of 16 analog cameras can be connected to one DIVAR hybrid recording device. The DIVAR hybrid models allow small and medium enterprises to make the transition to full IP video surveillance at the pace they feel comfortable with.

To remain future-proof, the DIVAR network and hybrid recorders enable easy monitoring and configuration as it is easy to watch live footage, playback recorded content, or reconfigure local unit settings anytime from anywhere. This can be done via the DIVAR Viewer app, available on smartphones (iOS and Android), and via the web browser. The app can also be used to control the pan, tilt and zoom functions.

The Bosch DDNS service enables users to create a name for their recorder free of charge, making it easy to find the recorder without using an IP address when using a web browser.
