    Introduction 

EverFocus brings you the 

next generation

 of analog recording. The new PARAGON960 x4 32CH 

digital video recorder benefits users by digitizing the highest quality, state of the art 960H cameras 
for live and remote monitoring, surveillance review, and archival. The PARAGON960 x4 32CH also 
supports real time (960FPS total) recording over 32-channels at WD1 (960x480 / 960x576) 
resolution, providing the ability to capture even fast moving objects at enhanced detail levels. 
 
The PARAGON960 x4 32CH DVR also supports convenient video export operations to USB & DVD 
(Optional). Its dual streams H.264 encoder provides users smooth remote viewing experience in 
low bandwidth networks while simultaneously preserving a high quality recording in the DVR hard 
disk. The PARAGON960 x4 32CH can provide clear 1080p Full HD Video output to both HDMI and 
VGA monitors with an intuitive onscreen user interface for efficient operation. User can also easily 
operate the machine using a USB mouse or via the front panel buttons and jog-dial/shuttle wheel. 
 

When paired with our powerful EverFocus PowerVideo Plus (CMS), the PARAGON960 x4 32CH can 
be used in complex multi-site installations, with centralized management. The PARAGON960 x4 
32CH is also fully supported by the EverFocus MobileFocus remote viewer on iOS and Android 
devices, which help extend video surveillance from fix location to mobile environments. 

 

960H is the highest resolution for analog CCTV, increasing resolution by 30% compared to D1. 
With the better resolution benefited by 960H, the definition of video image will certainly be higher. 
Moreover, the 960H CCD sensor performs greater image clarity in low-light environment than IP 
and HD-SDI CMOS sensors. A 960H DVR, like our new PARAGON960 x4 32CH DVR, can support 
cameras with resolution up to700TVL and you can use the existing coaxial infrastructure without 
the need of re-cabling.   

 
EverFocus also introduces an innovative function, 

eZ Hopper

, for our new series of DVRs / NVRs, 

allowing users to control up to 16 connected DVRs / NVRs with just one single mouse. This 
breakthrough feature brings great benefits to the traditional small and medium-sized surveillance 
system, not only eliminating the expense of the central monitoring software, but also saving the 
setup cost and time.
