Will this camera work with Laview NVR?

I have a dark hallway I'd like to record without IR emitters. Would this camera work, using POE with my Laview NVR LaView LV-KN988P86A4?

Hi @J angel

Perhaps - they claim on the specs "Technology: Onvif 2.0" and H.264

A lot of the products coming out from China which are not well known may have firmware limits / bugs issues, as often the sellers nor those OEMing the products have any sort of mature software development lifecycle setup. So do be cautious - it maybe functional, but outside of functional testing of the firmware I doubt they do any security testing - so keep that isolated from the internet.

Thankd! Do you think it will pull power (POE) from my LaView?

hmm... "Support POE(optional)" - looks like it may, remember some descriptions by vendors are not accurate - so do double check with the vendor.
 
So I finally hooked up this camera. It works with the LaView nvr. I have NOT tested POE yet.
I am not impressed with its low light performance. This is my first time using a starlight camera, so I don’t know if there are settings I can adjust. At this point, it is in a hallway that has some (little light), but the camera is almost completely black. I will test it again tonight and play with placement and lighting and update as I go.

If anyone has one of these and can give pointers, they’d be most welcome.
