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?Estimate the hard drive capacity and recording time for this recorder using your connected camera count, camera bitrates and recording schedule. Use our storage calculator for an estimate based on your settings.
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.
