The
UNVR-Instant (Network Video Recorder Instant) is a
compact all-in-one UniFi Protect NVR combining video recording, a 6-port PoE switch, and built-in HDMI Viewport in a single desktop unit — eliminating the need for separate NVR, switch, and display infrastructure in small East African surveillance deployments. Measuring
220 × 220 × 47 mm (8.7 × 8.7 × 1.9") and weighing
1.04 kg (2.3 lb), the UNVR-Instant features a
polycarbonate enclosure and mount with a
1.14" status display and
wall and DIN rail mounting included.
Bluetooth enables instant out-of-box setup via the UniFi mobile app. Powered by a
Quad-core ARM® Cortex®-A55 processor at 1.7 GHz with 4 GB memory.
The
UNVR-Instant manages
(15) HD, (8) 2K, and (6) 4K cameras via
UniFi Protect and
50 UniFi Access hubs for integrated access control — all recording to the
(1) 3.5" HDD drive bay (11W drive power budget). The
integrated 6-port PoE switch delivers 40W total PoE budget at 15.4W per port (44–57V) — directly powering UniFi cameras and access points from the UNVR-Instant itself, simplifying installation across small East African offices, retail stores, and remote locations. The
built-in HDMI Viewport port connects directly to a monitor or TV for live camera view without requiring a separate controller or PC — ideal for reception areas and security desks.
Vantage Point support enables multi-screen live monitoring.
