The Winnowl Lab Report
| Specification | Value | Rating | Vs. Average | Winnowl Insight |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Storage Capacity | 512 GB | Weak | 80% worse | Storage bottleneck. For a PoE NVR system, 2TB or less is insufficient for long-term 24/7 archival of high-bitrate video. |
| Resolution | 5 MP | Mediocre | 43% worse | Professional residential standard. 5MP-6MP sensors provide a significant leap in forensic quality, perfectly balancing evidentiary detail with storage requirements. |
| Number of Cameras | 4 cameras | Mediocre | 37% worse | Residential standard coverage. A 4-to-7 camera kit allows for overlapping security zones, ensuring an intruder has nowhere to hide. |
| Night Vision Range | 98 ft | Average | 11% worse | Professional perimeter reach. This 100ft benchmark ensures you can identify threats at the property line before they reach the structure. |
| Number of Channels | 8 channels | Average | 27% worse | Limited expansion. 4-to-6 channel systems are "fixed-capacity" units that offer very little flexibility for growing security needs. |
