Hikvision DS-7608NI-M2/8P 8 Channel 8 PoE 8K NVR
The Hikvision DS-7608NI-M2/8P is an 8-channel plug-and-play 8K Network Video Recorder built for Australian homes, retail sites, warehouses and multi-site commercial installs. With 8 built-in PoE ports, up to 32 MP per channel, 128 Mbps incoming bandwidth and true 8K HDMI output, this M Series NVR is engineered to record, decode and display the latest generation of Hikvision IP cameras — including AcuSense, ColorVu, TandemVu and PanoVu models — with zero compromise on image quality.
Two SATA bays accept up to 16 TB drives each (32 TB total), giving you weeks of high-resolution continuous recording or months of motion-triggered footage. Smart features inherited from Hikvision's AcuSense ecosystem — including human and vehicle classification, false alarm filtering, line-crossing and intrusion detection — drastically reduce nuisance alerts and make playback searches genuinely fast.

Why Australian installers choose the DS-7608NI-M2/8P
The M2/8P sits at the sweet spot for small-to-medium IP camera deployments: enough PoE ports for a complete 8-camera build, enough bandwidth for the latest 4K and 4K+ ColorVu cameras, and enough decoding muscle to display 2 × 32 MP streams simultaneously on a single 8K monitor. It's a future-proof recorder you won't outgrow on the next camera upgrade.
True 32 MP Input Support
Record every channel at up to 32 MP — the highest resolution tier supported in any consumer-grade NVR — so you can deploy Hikvision PanoVu, fisheye and 4K+ AcuSense cameras without throttling.
AcuSense Smart Detection
When paired with AcuSense cameras, the NVR runs deep-learning human and vehicle classification to filter out leaves, animals and shadows — slashing false alarms and making playback searches almost instant.
8 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.
Dual-SATA, 32 TB Capacity
Two internal SATA bays accept enterprise-grade surveillance HDDs up to 16 TB each, giving you long-duration 24/7 recording even at full 4K bitrates.
8K HDMI Display Output
Drive an 8K (7680 × 4320) monitor at 30 Hz, or a 4K display at 60 Hz, plus a secondary VGA output for a second workstation view in your control room.
H.265+ Smart Compression
Hikvision's H.265+ codec reduces bitrate by up to 75% compared to H.264 — that means more days of footage on the same drive, or the same retention on a smaller drive.

Frequently asked questions
Does the DS-7608NI-M2/8P come with hard drives?
The recorder ships as a chassis only. CCTV Guru offers pre-fitted Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple surveillance drives from 2 TB to 16 TB — please choose your preferred capacity at checkout.
Will it work with non-Hikvision cameras?
Yes. The NVR is ONVIF 2.2 compliant 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 8 channels with 24/7 recording, expect roughly 7–10 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.
Why buy Teltonika from CCTV Guru?
CCTV Guru supplies genuine Australian Teltonika products with local support, fast Australia-wide shipping and installer-focused advice for CCTV, remote access and industrial networking deployments.
