Frequently Asked Questions
Does the NVR1104H-4P come with a hard drive?
No. The NVR supports one 3.5" SATA HDD up to 10TB, which must be purchased separately. A surveillance-rated drive such as the Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple is recommended for 24/7 operation.
Can I use non-TP-Link cameras with this NVR?
Yes. The NVR1104H-4P supports ONVIF Profile S, allowing basic integration with compatible third-party IP cameras. For full smart detection, plug-and-play setup, and two-way audio, TP-Link VIGI cameras are recommended.
How many cameras can I connect?
Up to four IP cameras can be connected — one per PoE+ port. All four can record simultaneously and be viewed in a split-screen layout.
Can I access footage remotely?
Yes. Remote access is available via the free VIGI mobile app (iOS and Android), a web browser UI, or the VIGI Security Manager desktop software.
What is the maximum PoE power per port?
Each PoE+ port supports up to 30W, with a total system budget of 53W across all four ports. This is sufficient for most VIGI cameras including pan tilt models.
Is this NVR suitable for outdoor installation?
The NVR itself is designed for indoor use. It should be installed in a sheltered, ventilated location. The connected cameras handle outdoor exposure.
