Hikvision DeepinMind Pro · AcuSeek AI · 64 CH · 16 PoE · 3U · 256 TB
The Hikvision iDS-9664NXI-P16 is Hikvision's most powerful single-chassis NVR — a 64-channel DeepinMind Pro recorder with 16 built-in PoE ports, 16 SATA bays for up to 256 TB of storage, and a quad-GPU AI engine running AcuSeek, AcuSearch, facial recognition, perimeter protection, video structuralisation and ANPR — all from a single 3U rack chassis. This is the recorder you specify when nothing smaller will do.
Built for Australia's most demanding enterprise sites — hospitals, casinos, ports, large hotels, multi-building campuses, prisons, mining operations and government facilities — the iDS-9664NXI-P16 connects up to 64 IP cameras at resolutions up to 32 MP, with true 8K HDMI output driving a flagship 24/7 control-room monitor. Ships as a chassis only — choose your HDD configuration at checkout from 16 TB through to a full 256 TB RAID 6 stack.

The most powerful single-chassis NVR Hikvision makes
The iDS-9664NXI-P16 sits at the absolute top of Hikvision's recorder range — a quad-GPU AI engine driving real-time deep-learning analytics across 64 simultaneous channels, with 16 internal SATA bays for footage retention measured in months. One GPU is dedicated to AcuSeek and on-device decoding; three more run intelligent algorithms in parallel — facial recognition, perimeter protection, video structuralisation, ANPR and people counting — without throttling each other.
AcuSeek Natural-Language Search
Type *"a person in a red jacket at the loading dock yesterday"* and the NVR finds matching clips across all 64 channels in seconds — no manual scrubbing, no event tagging in advance.
16-Ch Live Face Recognition
Real-time facial recognition runs on 16 live camera streams. Add 64 channels of face-picture comparison from recorded footage for forensic review across the entire site.
100,000 Face Library
32 organised face libraries holding up to 100,000 enrolled faces between them — staff, VIPs, watch-lists, contractors and visitor history at the largest enterprise sites.
Quad-GPU AI Engine
Four dedicated GPU engines run intelligent algorithms in parallel — face recognition, perimeter, ANPR and structuralisation all run simultaneously without bottlenecking each other.
AcuSearch by Image
Upload a reference photo of a person or vehicle and AcuSearch finds every other appearance in your footage across all 64 channels. Days of investigation collapsed into seconds.
256 TB Maximum Storage
Sixteen internal SATA bays accept enterprise drives up to 16 TB each, delivering 6+ months of continuous 4K retention across all 64 cameras — no external SAN, no extra licensing.
Face recognition that works like your phone — but for your CCTV
You know how your iPhone Photos app automatically groups pictures of "Mum," "James," or "the kids"? The iDS-9664NXI-P16 does exactly the same thing — but for your live security cameras. Enrol photos of staff, family, regulars, couriers or contractors and add their names. From then on, when the NVR sees them on any of your 64 cameras, you get a push notification on your phone that says "James arrived at the front door" instead of just *"motion detected."*
It also works the other way around. Add a banned customer, a former employee or anyone you don't want on the premises to a watchlist — and the NVR alerts you the instant they appear on any of your 64 cameras. Up to 100,000 faces across 32 organised libraries are stored locally on the recorder itself — no cloud subscription, no facial data leaving your premises, no monthly fees, ever.
Unlike battery-powered "smart" doorbells that only recognise faces at one entrance (and lose accuracy over time), the DeepinMind Pro NVR runs Hikvision's enterprise-grade AI engine across every camera, every angle, around the clock.

Enterprise hardware backing the AI brain
Sixteen onboard PoE ports (IEEE 802.3 af/at) power your critical perimeter and entrance cameras directly; the other 48 channels accept IP cameras from anywhere on your network. Sixteen hot-swappable SATA bays with full RAID 0/1/5/6/10 plus N+M hot-spare protect footage from drive failure without operator intervention. True 8K HDMI output drives a flagship control-room monitor, with a second 4K HDMI for spot monitors and dual VGA for additional workstations.
8K + 4K Dual HDMI
HDMI 1 drives a true 8K monitor; HDMI 2 a 4K display — perfect for multi-operator 24/7 control rooms.
RAID + N+M Hot Spare
Sixteen SATA bays with full RAID and N+M hot-spare — designated spares automatically replace failed drives. Zero downtime, zero footage loss.
Hik-Connect & Hik-Central
Remote live view via Hik-Connect, or integrate into Hik-Central Pro VMS for centralised management across multiple sites.
ONVIF Compatible
Works with the full Hikvision IP range and most third-party ONVIF cameras — flexibility for hybrid, multi-vendor enterprise sites.

iDS-9664NXI-P16 vs iDS-9664NXI-P8 — which should you choose?
The P16 and P8 share exactly the same DeepinMind Pro AI engine, channel count, storage capacity and warranty. The only meaningful difference is built-in PoE port count.

Choose the P16 if you'd rather plug 16 cameras straight into the NVR and skip a separate PoE switch entirely. Choose the P8 if your site already runs a managed PoE switch backbone and you only need 8 cameras powered directly from the recorder.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between DeepinMind Pro and the M Series DeepinMind?
The Pro tier uses a quad-GPU accelerated AI engine that's an order of magnitude more powerful — runs face recognition, perimeter, AcuSeek and structuralisation simultaneously without throttling. The M Series uses a smaller AI engine more suited to single-task workloads.
Is there a redundant-power version available?
Yes — the iDS-9664NXI-P16R has dual hot-swappable PSUs for sites where power redundancy is mandatory (data centres, critical infrastructure, government). Contact our Australian team for /R variant pricing and stock.
Does it come with hard drives?
The recorder ships as a chassis only. CCTV Guru offers pre-fitted enterprise surveillance drives — Seagate SkyHawk, WD Purple or Exos — from 8 TB up to 16 TB per bay. Choose your RAID configuration at checkout.
What is N+M hot spare?
It's a step beyond standard RAID: configure N working drives plus M designated hot-spare drives. If any working drive fails, a spare automatically replaces it and rebuilds the array — no operator intervention, no downtime, no footage at risk.
Do I need special cameras to use the AI features?
No. The NVR processes video from any compatible Hikvision or ONVIF IP camera. Pair with cameras from our Hikvision AcuSeek Cameras collection for the sharpest face crops and best recognition accuracy.
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. Larger enterprise orders shipped by carrier with tracking and signature.
