The Swann Alpha Defend & Deter 16 Channel Security Monitoring System delivers everything you need to defend your home or business, safeguard your loved ones and deter intruders. It is cutting-edge high definition surveillance technology made easy, at an affordable price and exclusively available to Costco members.

The Defend & Deter System includes a state-of-the-art 16 Channel D18 DVR for simultaneous viewing and recording of 16 video streams locally, over the Internet or on your compatible 3G Smartphone. The kit includes 8 high resolution 520 TVL day/night security cameras, with the ability to add 8 more cameras of your choice for full 16 channel monitoring to ensure all the important locations at your premises are protected. Use the DVR's remote control or push button controls to view all 16 channels split-screen, 9 channels, 4 channels or 1 channel in full screen. It's up to you.

The D18 DVR features H.264 video compression for fast, efficient recording and playback. Also, the DVR is capable of real-time recording on all 16 channels (30fps per channel, 480 fps total) with the ability to fully configure the recording settings for each channel to the frame rate and resolution you desire, with up to 704 x 480 pixel resolution (D1). The eight C20 Day/Night Cameras provide crystal clear video through their high resolution 520 TV Lines image sensors with night vision up to 65 feet and the ability to operate indoors and outdoors. The cameras are truly weather proof with IP67 ratings for water resistance and the cables are threaded through their mounting stands for added protection.

The difference between this Defend & Deter system and other DVRs is crystal clear with a HDMI port generating high definition video to your plasma or LCD TV or monitor (HDMI cable not included). There is also a VGA connection for viewing on your LCD monitor or compatible TV (with VGA input). Otherwise, watch the system on your standard TV or CCTV monitor using the RCA video cable in the pack.

A massive 1TB SATA hard drive is pre-installed to allow up to 60 days of continuous recording from all 16 channels*. The D18 DVR's advanced motion activated recording system saves you time and effort searching for the footage you need by only recording action occurring in front of the cameras. This means you can get right down to reviewing the important video without watching hours of empty footage. Even better, the time and date are integrated into your video files, allowing you to find and transfer events to a USB flash drive for easy storage and retrieval when the time is right.

Easily set-up remote viewing with Swanns UPnP (Universal Plug n Play) technology that automatically configures the DVR to your router and internet connection. You can also have the DVR send you email alerts when activity is detected for constant peace of mind. Pair this up with an email account attached to your Smartphone, and you can receive alerts even when you're on the move!

With the Defend & Deter System, Smartphone viewing is remarkably easy to set up and use on iPhone, iPad, Android, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile 6 and Symbian OS. Once the DVR and cameras are installed at your home or business, simply download the free SwannView app from the iPhone App Store, Android Market, BlackBerry App World, Swanns website at www.swann.com/swannview or load it from the supplied CD. Once SwannView is installed on your Smartphone, put the DVR's IP address into the app and in less than a minute you can view video from up to 4 cameras live onscreen at a time. Coupled with the email alerts, this allows you to instantly check your DVR for potential threats as soon as they arise!
