WatchGuard 4RE In-Car Video DVR

The 4RE is still the patrol car’s gold-standard DVR: a single-DIN, 3-lb chassis that slides into any console rack yet survives –22 °F desert nights and 185 °F dash heat. Inside, WatchGuard’s patented Dual-Stream Recording engine captures every incident in true 720 p HD and simultaneous SD, letting supervisors keep razor-sharp evidence while routine footage auto-purges to save space.

Evidence lands first on a shock-mounted 200 GB automotive-grade hard drive (eight 10-hour shifts of dual-stream video) and mirrors in real time to a 32 GB solid-state USB “thumb” drive for instant, in-field clip hand-off.    Off-load options include 802.11 ac Wi-Fi, automatic station LAN, or manual USB—all encrypted end-to-end and indexed for Evidence Library 4 Web or CommandCentral Evidence cloud.

A built-in GPS & radar interface stamps speed, coordinates and plate returns on screen; a 3-axis crash sensor flags G-force events for non-erasable retention; and four camera ports (primary HD turret, Panoramic X2, IR cabin, zero-sightline, etc.) sync with VISTA body-cams so every angle rides in one incident file.  Front-panel hot-keys and the familiar 6″ touch display (DIS6) give officers glove-friendly control without leaving the wheel.
