The Top 5 Game-Changing Features of UNV CCTV Systems

When it comes to CCTV systems, not all setups are created equal. 

If you're looking for a CCTV system that’s powerful, easy to install, and built for the future, UniView (UNV) has you covered. Whether you're a professional installer or a business owner, these top 5 UNV CCTV features will show you why it's one of the best CCTV systems for commercial and residential use.

1. Firmware Cloud Upgrades – Update Everything with One Click

Gone are the days of manually updating each device with a USB stick. UNV’s cloud firmware upgrade feature is a massive time-saver. With just a few clicks, you can update your entire IP CCTV system remotely—whether you're using the NVR, the UNV Link Pro App, or the Cloud Link platform.

Batch upgrades? Check. Remote updates? Absolutely. It’s the ultimate tool for maintaining multiple systems without the hassle.

2. Cloud Link – Full Control from Anywhere

Need to tweak settings or check footage while off-site? UNV’s Cloud Link has you covered. This feature allows you to operate your NVR from any internet-connected device. With the EZcloud web app or EZstation desktop software, you can:

  • Watch live feeds
  • Playback recordings
  • Calibrate cameras
  • Manage alarms and alerts
  • Adjust network and user settings

All without physically accessing the recorder. It’s perfect for secure installations where the NVR is hidden or locked away.

3. UNV Link & Link Pro Apps – Mobile Control for Everyone

UNV offers two powerful mobile apps:

  • UNV Link: Ideal for end users, this app supports live viewing, playback, PTZ control, 2-way audio, and more—all from your smartphone.
  • UNV Link Pro: Built for installers, this app allows you to manage multiple projects, batch configure devices, and even diagnose voltage issues using the Connect Box integration.

Together, these apps offer unmatched flexibility and control, whether you're managing a single home or multiple commercial sites.

 

4. Extended Transmission – Go the Distance

Most IP camera systems max out at 100 meters for power and data transmission. UNV’s NVRs triple that range to 300 meters—no extenders or switches required. Just enable “Extended Transmission” in the camera menu and you’re good to go.

This feature is a lifesaver for complex installations where distance is a challenge.

 

5. NDAA Compliance – Trusted Worldwide

UNV products are fully NDAA compliant, meeting strict U.S. government standards that prohibit the use of certain non-compliant manufacturers. While this is a U.S. regulation, it has global implications—especially for UK businesses working with U.S. partners.

With UNV, you’re investing in a system that’s secure, reliable, and globally trusted for domestic, commercial, and governmental use.

Bonus: Unmatched Technical Support

Beyond the tech, UNV offers something just as valuable—exceptional support. When you purchase through an authorized distributor, you gain access to:

  • A UK-based expert support team
  • Tailored patches and troubleshooting
  • A 3-year warranty
  • Five-star rated service

Whether you need help with setup, training, or ongoing maintenance, UNV’s support team is there to ensure your installation is smooth and successful.
