Question
What is the NVR's power consumption without connecting cameras to the NVR's PoE ports?
Answer
On the Linux-based NVR's official webpage, the specifications section indicates the NVR's maximum power consumption. This value accounts for not only the power consumed by the NVR itself but also the power supplied to all cameras connected to its PoE ports.
For example, the maximum power consumption of ND9541P/ND9441P is 260W.

When no cameras are connected to the NVR's PoE ports, the power consumption is 60W - 76W. This implies that the device can supply a maximum of 180W to 200W for powering cameras. To determine the accurate power supported for cameras connected to the NVR's PoE ports, please refer to the 'PoE Management' section under 'System' in the NVR's user manual 'Settings'.
