I have a system design issue I'm hoping you can help me with.
Is there a way to connect multiple monitors to an NVR? We currently have a need to see (live view feed) different cameras in different TVs. To give you a little background: We have a small school with multiple classrooms. In our lobby area we have 4 TVs showing what's going on in 4 of these classroom (for our little ones). Currently I have dedicated cameras connected to these TVs via BNC to HDMI converters. However, for some reason these connections are not reliable. We keep losing connection and the image is constantly going away.
We are going through the process of updating our security cameras system (from DVR to PoE NVR) and I was hoping we could find a way to connect the NVR to all TVs to avoid having different (additional) cameras just for that purpose. Is there a way to do this? One NVR with 5 different monitors?
4 TVs showing 1 camera each and 1 TV (in the main office) showing all cameras. An HDMI injector/splitter perhaps?... is so, do you have any recommendations in regards to the equipment needed to achieve the desired results?
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Video distribution system
So all the feeds go to dvr/monitor, which shows splitscreen of all cameras. Take that feed and feed it to hdmi splitter.
