HiLook NVR-108MH-K/8P Pro Series AI 4K NVR — Australian Stock & 3-Year Warranty
The HiLook NVR-108MH-K/8P is an 8-channel HiLook Pro Series 4K AI network video recorder with 8 built-in PoE ports and on-board AI. Its Motion Detection 2.0 engine classifies humans and vehicles across all channels to cut false alarms from rain, foliage and animals, while built-in facial recognition can capture and compare faces against a library — even when your cameras have no AI of their own.
DAS distributor SKU: NVR-108MH-K-8P-PRO. This is the same recorder as the official HiLook model NVR-108MH-K/8P; “-PRO” is a distributor catalogue suffix, not a different hardware model.
Records up to 8 MP (4K) per channel with up to 80 Mbps incoming bandwidth and efficient H.265+ compression. Simultaneous HDMI (up to 4K) and VGA outputs drive two screens, and a single SATA bay takes a surveillance HDD up to 10 TB. View live and recorded footage anywhere via Hik-Connect or iVMS-4200. Backed by genuine Australian stock and a 3-year warranty.

Pro Series AI on Every Camera
Motion Detection 2.0
On-board AI sorts genuine human and vehicle events from nuisance triggers like swaying trees, rain and passing animals across all 8 channels — so your phone only buzzes when it matters, even with non-AI cameras.
Facial Recognition
Capture and compare faces against a face-picture library (up to 16 libraries) directly on the recorder, with face search to jump straight to the clips that matter.
8 Built-In PoE Ports
Connect up to eight IP cameras with one cable each — the NVR supplies data and power (≤75 W total), so there's no separate switch or power supplies to buy or wire.
4K Output & H.265+
Drive a 4K display over HDMI (plus a second VGA screen) and rely on H.265+ compression to slash storage and bandwidth use by up to 75%.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many cameras can it run?
Up to 8 IP cameras, each connected directly to one of the 8 built-in PoE ports.
Does it support AcuSense / AI?
Yes. As a HiLook Pro Series recorder it runs on-board AI — Motion Detection 2.0 (human/vehicle filtering across 8 channels) plus facial detection and comparison — so you get smart alerts even with non-AI cameras.
What's the total PoE budget?
The 8 PoE ports share a total budget of up to 75 W, enough for eight standard HiLook cameras.
What HDD size can I fit?
One SATA hard drive up to 10 TB. A surveillance-grade drive is recommended; an HDD is not usually included unless stated on this page.
What's the maximum recording resolution?
Up to 8 MP (4K) per channel, with H.265+ compression to keep file sizes down.
Can I use facial recognition and Motion Detection 2.0 together?
No — facial recognition and Motion Detection 2.0 cannot be enabled at the same time; choose the mode that suits each install.
Which cameras are compatible?
Any HiLook or Hikvision IP camera, plus ONVIF-compatible third-party cameras.
How do I view it remotely?
Through the free Hik-Connect mobile app or the iVMS-4200 desktop client for live view, playback and notifications.
