TP-Link VIGI · Wi-Fi camera bundle
TP-Link VIGI 4-Camera 4MP Indoor Wi-Fi Turret CCTV Kit — C440-W 4mm + NVR1004H — No HDD
Four Wi-Fi cameras and one local recorder for locations where camera network cabling is difficult, but power is available nearby. This kit uses your existing Wi-Fi network rather than a dedicated wireless recorder.
Important: Cameras need plug-in power. The NVR needs an Ethernet connection to your router. Router, HDD and installation are sold separately.
4 × C440-W cameras
4MP indoor turret cameras with fixed 4mm lenses. Choose and aim each camera for the scene you need; camera count alone does not establish whole-property coverage.
2.4GHz Wi-Fi video
Cameras connect to your local Wi-Fi network. Walls, distance, interference and other wireless traffic affect stability; test all four streams together.
Local NVR storage
The four-channel NVR1004H records to a separately purchased compatible SATA HDD. Choose capacity to suit the required retention period.
Continuous plug-in power
Each camera uses its supplied DC adapter. Wi-Fi replaces the camera data cable, not the power connection. Plan suitable nearby outlets.
Exactly what is included
A CCTV Guru component bundle: four VIGI C440-W 4mm cameras with their manufacturer-supplied adapters and standard mounting accessories, plus one VIGI NVR1004H recorder with its standard package accessories. No HDD is included.
4 × VIGI C440-W · 4mm Wi-Fi camera

1 × VIGI NVR1004H · 4-channel recorder
Ethernet network connection; no built-in Wi-Fi
How this wireless kit connects
Camera → 2.4GHz Wi-Fi router/access point → Ethernet → NVR1004H. The router or access point is not included. Place the recorder near an available network port and keep cameras reachable on the same local network. Guest-network isolation can prevent discovery and recording.
The NVR is not a Wi-Fi hotspot and the kit is not advertised as a pre-paired wireless NVR package. Configure camera Wi-Fi first, add the cameras to the recorder and test recording before final mounting.
Choose the right installation
The C440-W uses a fixed 4mm lens, supports two-way audio and is intended for indoor installation; no ingress-protection rating is published. Colour night imaging depends on available or supplemental light. Check moving subjects at night as well as daytime live view.
These cameras and their power adapters must be kept dry; do not use them in exposed outdoor positions. Protect electrical connections and use a suitable installer where required. Power supplies and storage limits vary by hardware version; use the device label and matching manufacturer documentation.
Wi-Fi reliability matters
Four continuous camera streams put a sustained load on the wireless network. Check signal quality at the actual mounting locations, especially through brick walls, metal structures and outbuildings. A fast internet plan does not fix weak local Wi-Fi.
If a position has unreliable coverage, improve the access-point placement or consider wired networking. Wi-Fi or local network outages interrupt delivery to the recorder. This kit does not promise automatic recovery of missed NVR footage from a camera memory card.
Storage and expansion
The NVR1004H has four recording channels and an 80Mbps incoming bandwidth rating. All four channels are used by this kit. It has a SATA interface for a compatible HDD; recording requires an installed and initialised drive.
Select HDD capacity for camera bitrate, activity, recording schedule and desired retention. HDDs and microSD cards are separate purchases. Local recording needs no cloud-recording subscription, while remote viewing requires a working internet connection and account setup.
Before installation
Confirm four suitable power points, reliable 2.4GHz Wi-Fi coverage, a router LAN port for the NVR, a compatible HDD and a secure indoor recorder location. A monitor, display cable, network patch lead, UPS, junction boxes and installation labour are not included as added kit items.
Bench-test all four cameras and the recorder first. Set strong passwords, correct time and recording schedules, then check playback and export a test clip. Apply only firmware intended for the exact hardware revision and region.

Surveillance recording storage
2TB surveillance HDD — GR-HDD-2TB. Install and initialise a compatible HDD before recording to the NVR. Choose capacity to suit your recording needs and the recorder's hardware limits.
Wi-Fi router
TP-Link Archer AX55 provides compatible 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and Ethernet LAN ports. Connect the NVR by Ethernet and join all four cameras to the same local network using compatible WPA2 security. An existing suitable router may be used instead. Check signal at each camera position; coverage is site-dependent.
Backup power
Dahua DH-PFM3350-600 UPS is an optional backup for the recorder and router, subject to connected load and socket requirements. Runtime varies. Cameras powered from other outlets need their own backup to keep streaming during an outage.
Power outlets and surge protection
PowerShield ZapGuard 5-way powerboard offers extra indoor outlets and surge protection; it is not a battery backup. Each camera needs a suitable power point for its supplied adapter. Fixed outlet installation is separate. Do not daisy-chain powerboards or connect a surge board to a UPS unless the UPS manufacturer permits it.
Questions answered
Are these cameras completely wire-free?
No. The C440-W cameras send video over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi but need continuous plug-in power using their supplied adapters. They are not battery or solar cameras.
Does the recorder have built-in Wi-Fi?
No. The NVR1004H connects by Ethernet to your router or network switch. The cameras join a compatible 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network on the same local network.
Is a router or access point included?
No. Use your existing compatible router or access point, or purchase one separately. Confirm reliable Wi-Fi coverage at every camera position and allow the cameras to communicate with the recorder.
Is a hard drive included?
No. A compatible surveillance HDD is sold separately. Install and initialise it in the NVR before recording footage to the recorder.
Can I add a fifth camera?
The included NVR1004H supports four camera channels, all used by this kit. Recording more cameras requires a recorder upgrade or an additional recorder.
Will recording work if the internet goes down?
Local NVR recording can continue with a fitted HDD while camera power, local Wi-Fi, the router or access point and the recorder remain working. Remote viewing needs an internet connection.
What happens if a camera loses Wi-Fi?
The NVR cannot record a camera stream while that connection is unavailable. Reposition or improve Wi-Fi coverage before installation. Do not assume camera memory-card recordings automatically fill gaps in the NVR timeline.
Are power adapters included?
The manufacturer lists a power adapter in each camera package. Use the supplied adapter matched to the exact hardware version and protect adapters and connections appropriately. Suitable power outlets must be available at each camera location.
