AN IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT ANALOG AND SDI CAMERAS
Hybrid DVRs utilize both conventional analog and digital high definition SDI (Serial Digital Interface)
cameras. Both cameras use similar cables and connectors, (see Section 2.5 for connection
instructions) but they are not interchangeable as they are two completely different - and incompatible -
technologies. SDI cameras connected to analog Video In ports will not provide video and vice versa.
The QT604 DVR will only work with a maximum of three analog cameras and one SDI camera while the
QT608 DVR is able to work with up to six analog cameras and two SDI cameras.
