I installed 2 x12 TB HDs (Seagate Skyhawk AI 12tb HDD 3.5 Inch SATA 6Gb/s 7200PRM 256MB Cache for NAS Internal Hard Drive for DVR NVR Security Camera System AI Application Optimization (Renewed) ). Setup was plug and play. Picture quality depends on the camera. I've got 3 x REOLINK Duo 3V PoE, 5 x REOLINK RLC-1240A First 12MP Vandalproof PoE Security Camera,145Β° Wide, 1 x REOLINK Video Doorbell PoE Camera and 1 x REOLINK Video Doorbell WIFI Camera. So the picture quality is great, with easy zooming. I used the REOLINK RLA-POECS1, Waterproof PoE Combiner & Splitters to setup 6 cameras. That means less wires around the house. They needed a POE switch so i used Reidubo 18 Ports Gigabit PoE Switch,16 Port Gigabit PoE+ Network Switch with 2 Uplink Gigabit Ports, 250W. All items purchased here on desertcart. Everything works together perfectly. and can get setup just for local viewing or directly to your phone or computer. The Doorbell camera do setup to my Alexa Echo Show. You have to scan the QR code on the back of the camera and set it up before installing. Any of the time lapse or doorbell features that activate on the echo show need to have that setup. The user interface is very user friendly. I bought everything with a dome and most are installed on the wall mounts. Everything is compatible and good heavy metal. So far durable and i waited for sales so absolutely worth every dime spent. Review: Very nice NVR with lots of features - Overall the features of this NVR are good for recording Reolink cameras and playing back video. You have the option to select the events you want to see, people, vehicles, animals, or all motion. The set-up is easy. The one feature that caught me by surprise was that the NVR acts as a DHCP server and reassigns the attached cameras to its own subnet. This causes issues trying to to use rtsp. The software has a defect, when the NVR is rebooted, cameras randomly do not reconnect, which are on that subnet. WiFi cameras always reconnect, just the wired cameras have the issue. I sometimes have to unplug and replug a camera several times to get it to be reconnected to the NVR. I have multiple camera models, and this issue happens with all of them. Update: March 31, 2025 - The reconnection issues have been resolved. Support had me upgrade to the most current firmware. Also, I reconfigured my LAN so that all of the PoE switches now connect directly to the back of the NVR. All of the cameras reconnect now just fine after a reboot. The latest firmware also has some nice enhancements. I am changing my rating to 5 stars. ## Features - ONLY WORK WITH REOLINK IP CAMERAS: Work perfectly with all Reolink PoE 12MP/4K/5MP/4MP cameras, such as RLC-1212A, RLC1224A, RLC-823A 16X, Trackmix PoE, Duo 2 PoE, 823A, 811A, 810A, 820A, 842A, 510A, 520A, Doorbell PoE, E1 Outdoor cameras. Manage up to 36 Reolink IP cameras simultaneously easily. - EXPAND YOUR SYSTEM WITH POE SWITCHES: By connecting up to four PoE switches to the LAN ports of the NVR, you can extend your system for broader coverage and higher performance. Separating 36 cameras to 4 PoE switches, then connecting the PoE Switches to the RLN36 for integrated management, your 4K security system can be accessed with no latency with or without internet. - 3 HDD BAYS, BUSINESS-GRADE STORAGE: The RLN36 network video recorder contains three HDD bays with each supporting up to 16TB HDD (NO HDD included). With 48TB storage in total and 36 IP cameras recording 24/7 at 6Mbps, the HDDs can last around 20 days. For a list of the recommended HDDs, please refer to the FAQ/Video page for more details. - UPGRADED DESIGN, FASTER DATA TRANSFER: This Reolink NVR can be plugged into mic/speaker devices to hear & talk back to whoever you catch on the monitor via Reolink cameras with two-way talk function. The RCA male-to-female converters are required (not included). The USB 3.0 port will help you back up important footage from your HDD to your portable hard drive efficiently. - FULL INTEGRATION WITH SMART REOLINK CAMS: The RLN36 NVR can integrate human/vehicle detection & playback from Reolink IP cams to build an intelligent system. By adding more Reolink cameras with optical zoom, auto-tracking, two-way talk, motion-triggered spotlights features, you can even build a cutting-edge home security system on your own. - NOTE: Before use, please ensure that your NVR is compatible with the camera, update your NVR with the latest firmware.

Sorry. We do not have rack mount brackets to sell. The size of this NVR is 330mm*45mm, you can buy the stand according to this size. **Q: Can my existing rln8-410 be plugged into this box and act as one of the four poe switches?** A: Hello.

You can only connect the POE Switches (by seperate power) to the LAN ports of the RLN36. **Q: Can you use Reolink cameras that are already connected to an existing network?** A: Hello. Yes, Reolink cameras except battery-powered cameras can be added to this 36 Channel Network Video Recorder. Please make sure that this NVR and the camera are under the same network.

The unit does not support powering PoE cameras over an Ethernet cable directly connected to the unit. Description says it supports PoE cameras. But written in the obscure details at the bottom in fine print, "Ethernet Ports: No PoE PortοΌ›4 x RJ-45, ". Meaning it will not power a PoE camera. I saw in the reviews you will need a separate PoE switch to power them (not included). Unit works well. Easy plug and play camera access. I didn't see a lot of extra features. Connected to Rio 3 wifi camera. gave me 3 views wide, 1:1, pan. Zoom is ok but don't expect to get up close to an object. Maybe that is just the camera. Video looked like it had High Compression so a lot of detail lost. I see Reolink as an average, medium quality camera system. Maybe priced at or a little over quality. ## Frequently Bought Together - REOLINK 36CH Network Video Recorder for Home Security Camera System, Only Work with 16MP/12MP/4K/8MP/5MP/4MP REOLINK PoE Security Camera, Integrated O/I Alarm System, No HDD Included, RLN36 - REOLINK PoE Switch with 8 PoE and 2 Gigabit Uplink Ports, Ideal for REOLINK RLN36 NVR and Power Over Ethernet IP Cameras, IEEE802.3af/at, Metal Casing, Desktop/Wall Mount, RLA-PS1 - REOLINK Duo 3 PoE 16MP UHD Dual-Lens PoE Security Camera with 180Β° Panoramic View, Motion Track, F1.6 Color Night Vision, Person/Vehicle/Animal Detection, 2 Way Talk, Supports 24/7 Recording --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/646049934-reolink-36ch-network-video-recorder-for-home-security-camera-system](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/646049934-reolink-36ch-network-video-recorder-for-home-security-camera-system) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
