Key Features of Mobotix NAS-873U-RP-G

8x 3.5″ Hot-Swappable Bays

The NAS-873U-RP-G supports up to eight 3.5″ SATA hard drives, providing flexible storage configurations based on project requirements. Whether deploying 4TB or 20TB drives, users can build a NAS array that scales up to 160TB or more, depending on RAID structure and disk capacity. The hot-swappable design ensures drives can be replaced or upgraded without system downtime.

Optimized for Surveillance

As a surveillance-focused NAS, the Mobotix NAS-873U-RP-G is pre-configured with VMS (Video Management System) capabilities and supports continuous video recording from multiple IP cameras. It is engineered for high-throughput writing speeds, ensuring no frame loss even when recording in high resolution.

With Mobotix-certified firmware and ONVIF compatibility, this NAS supports a wide range of camera models and brands, making it adaptable to multi-vendor surveillance networks.

Redundant Power Supply

The “RP” in NAS-873U-RP-G stands for Redundant Power, a crucial feature for 24/7 operations. This ensures that even if one power supply fails, the system will remain online and functional, reducing the risk of data loss or recording interruption in critical environments.

RAID Support and Data Protection

Mobotix NAS-873U-RP-G supports multiple RAID levels including RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10. These configurations give users the flexibility to optimize for performance, redundancy, or a balance of both. With RAID protection in place, video footage remains safe even in the event of a drive failure, which is essential in surveillance settings.

High-Speed Connectivity

The unit is equipped with multiple Gigabit Ethernet ports and may support optional 10GbE connectivity for high-bandwidth environments. This is especially valuable when dealing with multi-channel, high-definition camera streams that require consistent network throughput.

Centralized Video Archiving and Playback

By serving as a central storage point for all surveillance video data, the Mobotix NAS-873U-RP-G enables centralized monitoring, review, and archival. Administrators can remotely access live or recorded footage, manage storage space, and configure recording parameters all through an intuitive management interface.
