NEWTON, Ala. — AngelTrax's newest mobile DVR, the HDX Hybrid, is designed for vehicles of any size.
The HDX Hybrid is a compact, four channel mobile DVR that features AngelTrax’s patented Hybrid Component Technology. The technology was designed to simplify upgrades and maintenance, keeping fleet surveillance operating smoothly while staying updated with current technology, according to the supplier.
At just over 2 inches tall, the HDX Hybrid can be installed in virtually any size vehicle. The mobile DVR is built to withstand any environment and ships with 500 GB of solid-state storage standard. Additionally, its dedicated hard drive bay was created to expedite removing and swapping solid-state drives, according to the supplier.
“With so many fleets utilizing smaller vehicles for different applications, we knew it was important to create a four channel DVR with the capabilities of the HDX Hybrid,” said Richie Howard, AngelTrax president and CEO. “We’ve brought our Hybrid Component Technology to a smaller package due to customer demand for this kind of performance in all of their fleet vehicles, no matter the size.”
