Hikvision DS-7604NI-M1/4P 4 Channel 4 PoE 1U 4K NVR
The Hikvision DS-7604NI-M1/4P is a compact 4-channel 4 PoE Network Video Recorder built around Hikvision's latest M Series platform. It records and manages up to 4 IP cameras at resolutions up to 32 MP per channel, decodes 4 × 8 MP streams simultaneously, and drives an external monitor at true 8K HDMI output — all from a small, silent 1U chassis that's perfect for Australian homes, retail counters, offices and small commercial sites.
Four built-in PoE ports power and connect your cameras over a single Cat6 run, so installation is genuinely plug-and-play. A single SATA bay accepts a surveillance-grade HDD up to 16 TB — giving you weeks of high-resolution footage on a clean, energy-efficient recorder.

Why this 4-channel NVR is the sweet spot for small sites
Most Australian homes, shops and offices need 3–4 cameras — not 8 or 16. The DS-7604NI-M1/4P is sized precisely for that real-world scenario, but unlike entry-level recorders it gives you the same 8K HDMI output, 32 MP camera support and H.265+ smart compression as Hikvision's higher channel-count NVRs. Buy once, future-proofed for the next generation of 4K and 4K+ AcuSense cameras.
True 32 MP Input Support
Each of the four channels accepts cameras up to 32 MP — so you can deploy Hikvision PanoVu, fisheye, ColorVu and 4K+ AcuSense models without throttling resolution.
AcuSense Smart Detection
When paired with AcuSense cameras, the NVR runs deep-learning human and vehicle classification to filter out leaves, animals and shadows — drastically reducing false alarms.
4 PoE Ports Built-In
Power and data over a single Cat6 run to each camera, up to 100 m. IEEE 802.3 af/at compliant with auto-detection — plug your cameras in and they appear automatically.
Single-SATA, 16 TB Capacity
Drop in a Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple drive up to 16 TB for weeks of continuous 4K H.265+ recording — silent, low-power, and rated for 24/7 surveillance duty.
8K HDMI & VGA Outputs
Drive an 8K (7680 × 4320) monitor for ultra-sharp playback, or use the independent VGA output to run a second viewing screen at the same time.
H.265+ Smart Compression
Hikvision's H.265+ codec reduces bitrate by up to 75% versus H.264 — meaning more days of footage on the same drive, or the same retention on a smaller drive.

Frequently asked questions
Does the DS-7604NI-M1/4P come with a hard drive?
The recorder ships as a chassis only. CCTV Guru can pre-fit a Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple surveillance drive from 2 TB to 16 TB — choose your preferred capacity at checkout.
Will it work with non-Hikvision cameras?
Yes — the NVR is ONVIF compatible and works with most third-party ONVIF IP cameras. For full AcuSense smart features you'll need genuine Hikvision AcuSense-compatible cameras.
Can I view recordings on my phone?
Yes — set up Hik-Connect on iOS or Android for free remote live view, playback and motion alerts. No port forwarding required.
What cameras does it pair best with?
Any Hikvision IP camera — but to unlock AcuSense smart features pair it with Hikvision AcuSense cameras such as the ColorVu, AcuSense Pro and DarkFighter ranges.
How many days of recording will I get?
At full 4K H.265+ on all 4 channels with 24/7 recording, expect roughly 12–14 days per 4 TB drive. Motion-only recording typically triples that figure.
Do you ship to my city?
We ship Australia-wide from our local warehouse — Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra and Darwin — with most metro orders arriving in 1–3 business days.
