Hardware Requirements
Recording data is one of the most important parts for video surveillance, and hard disk drives are one of
the most important components to safely store the recording data.
It is always recommended that you use the hard disk drives certified by GVD. Find the list of the GVD-
certified hard disk drives at the link below:
http://www.gvdigital.com/gvdweb/html/document/Support_Lists/Certified%20HDD%20List.pdf
NOTE:
* GVD does not guarantee the system performance if a HDD model that is not certified by GVD is used.
* GVD recommends that you always use enterprise-level SATA hard drives for GVD enterprise NVR, Failover Server, Backup Server,
Extended Storage because it supports TLER (Time Limited Error Recovery), higher MTBF, higher Duty Cycles and typically include a
sensor for rotation and vibration.

Mobile NVR M1121 Quick Start Guide 1
Introduction
Thank you for choosing GVD products. The M1121 is the light-weight
solution of GVD's brand new mobile NVR line, M1 Series. Powered by
Intel® Atom™ Bay Trail E3845 Quad-core, M1121 is a fanless NVR to
deliver appropriate CPU calculation with low power consumption. The
integrated Intel®HD Graphics that brings DirectX11 also allows the
NVRs to deliver superb video and audio.
The M1121 comes with rich data connection including 3G, 4G
and WiFi to stay constantly connected with the control center. The
intelligent power management prevents startup failure and allows
the control center to watch over the car battery usage through 3G,
4G or WiFi. Isolated DIO on the other hand keeps the mobile NVR connected with other in-vehicle devices
such as a car door sensor, and the change of DIO states can be sent to the control center.
If you opt for a GPS (plus 3G or 4G) module to go inside the mobile NVR, the control center can instantly
locate the vehicle that carries the mobile NVR on the map. Also on option is a G-sensor to measure the
vibration every couple of minutes and feed the data back to the control center. On the other hand the
mobile NVR is verified to be anti-shock and anti-vibration to guarantee more protection to the hard disk
drives onboard and ensures non-stop video recording.
Two PoE LAN ports are featured on the M1121. Each port
delivers power up to 25.5W and simultaneously transfers data
up to 1000 Mb/s over a single CAT-5e/CAT-6 cable. The highly
integrated mechanical design on the other hand allows the
M1121 to efficiently distribute the heat generated by the PoE
circuit and therefore makes the M1121 a very stable fanless
NVR with PoEs. The mechanical design is also modular to
make the NVR easy-to-install and maintain.
The simple and sturdy design makes the M1121 ideal for all
kinds of vehicles. It is your best choice for IP video surveillance
on the go.
