WizSense + AcuPick · 5-Series · 8-Channel · 32 MP · 4K
8CH AcuPick NVR
The Dahua DHI-NVR5208-8P-AI/ANZ is an 8-channel 5-Series WizSense AI NVR with AcuPick, 8 built-in PoE+ ports (all 8 supporting ePoE), 4K HDMI output and an industrial-grade AI chip that delivers the full 5-Series feature set in a smaller, channel-count form factor. Record up to 32 MP per channel, run AcuPick across all 8 channels, and stream 384 Mbps through a full-1U chassis with dual SATA bays, hardware alarm I/O, RS-232 + RS-485 serial, and N+M cluster failover.
This is the official Australia / NZ-market SKU (the AI/ANZ suffix), shipping with regional firmware, an internal 100–240 VAC universal PSU, and a local 3-year warranty backed by CCTV Guru in Sydney. The 5-Series in 8-channel format — choose this when you want AcuPick and the deeper analytics depth without paying for sixteen PoE ports you won't use.
AcuPick — find anyone, anything, in seconds
AcuPick Channels
Up to 8 ch · 1 event / channel / sec
Search Method
Image + attribute · front + back AI
Search by reference image
Click any person or vehicle in recorded video, hit AcuPick, and the NVR scans every channel for matches across hours or days — clothing colour, body shape, vehicle model and direction included.
Front- + back-end intelligence
Camera-side AI extracts the target attributes during recording; NVR-side AI runs the comparison. Higher accuracy than recorder-only search — and orders of magnitude faster than human review.
All 8 channels of AcuPick
Run AcuPick across every channel simultaneously when paired with WizSense IPC. Investigations that used to take an afternoon now finish before the kettle boils.
Beyond Quick Pick
AcuPick is the next generation of Dahua's Quick Pick — more attributes, more accuracy, and supports both people and vehicles natively. Exclusive to the 5-Series NVR family.
5-Series WizSense AI — depth without compromise
Industrial AI Chip
Same depth as the 16-ch flagship
Face Database
20 databases · 20,000 images
Face Recognition (2 ch by NVR)
2 channels of full face detection + recognition by the recorder (12 face snapshots/sec each), or up to 8 channels using camera-side detection feeding NVR-side recognition (16 face snapshots/sec). Twenty face databases.
Perimeter Protection (4 ch)
4 NVR-side channels of tripwire and intrusion analytics with 10 IVS rules each — double the 4-Series. Human/vehicle classification cuts false alarms from animals, weather and lighting.
SMD Plus on 8 channels
Smart Motion Detection Plus runs deep-learning second-pass classification across all 8 channels — every camera benefits, no channels left out.
ANPR by camera (8 channels)
Pair with Dahua ANPR cameras for full 8-channel licence-plate recognition feeding a 20,000-plate database with blocklist / allowlist control. Ideal for site gates, carparks and fleet yards.
Video Metadata search
Search recorded video by structured attributes — top colour, bottom colour, hat, bag, umbrella, gender, age, vehicle make / model / colour / plate, helmet wear and more.
N+M cluster failover
Pair multiple 5-Series NVRs in an N+M cluster — backup recorders automatically take over if a primary fails, ensuring zero footage loss for critical sites.

Two surveillance-grade HDD bays (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) up to 16 TB per drive. iSCSI adds external network storage when on-board capacity isn't enough.
32-channel 1080p decoding
Far more horsepower than the channel count suggests — happily decodes a sub-stream wall of 32 1080p tiles for control-room monitor walls.
Smart H.265+ for half the storage
AI-tuned H.265+ encoding cuts bitrate on static background pixels while preserving detail on moving targets — roughly half the storage and bandwidth of standard H.264.
ePoE · alarm I/O · serial — built for installers
ePoE on all 8 ports
Every PoE port supports Dahua ePoE — extended-distance PoE up to 800 m on Cat6 (and 300 m at full 100 Mbps). Eliminates intermediate switches on long perimeter runs.
4 alarm-in / 2 alarm-out
Physical terminal block on the rear panel — wire in PIRs, door sensors, glass-break detectors, panic buttons, sirens or gate triggers for hardware-level event linkage.
RS-232 + RS-485
Both serial standards present — integrate with POS systems, gate controllers, access control panels, intercoms or third-party VMS that need legacy serial.
ONVIF 22.06 (T / S / G)
Modern ONVIF profile support — drops into any current VMS, and accepts cameras from Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon as well as Dahua.
DMSS mobile + iSCSI storage
Free iOS / Android DMSS viewer with live view, playback, push notifications and P2P remote access. iSCSI lets you expand storage onto any compatible network appliance.

Frequently asked questions
What is AcuPick and how is it different to Quick Pick?
AcuPick is Dahua's next-generation video search technology — it uses BOTH camera-side and NVR-side AI to extract rich attributes (clothing, body shape, vehicle make/model/colour/plate, direction, action) from every frame as it records, then lets you search by a reference image OR by combined attributes. Quick Pick (on the 4-Series) does single-attribute colour/clothing search only. AcuPick is faster, more accurate, and supports both people and vehicles natively.
Do I need special cameras for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick relies on camera-side intelligence to extract attributes during recording. You need Dahua's AcuPick-ready cameras (typically the TiOC PV and 5-Series WizSense Plus IPC families). Standard WizSense cameras still record and recognise faces, but the full AcuPick search depth needs paired AcuPick IPCs.
What does ePoE on all 8 ports give me?
Extended PoE on every port — long-distance Cat6 runs at reduced speed. Each port supports 100 Mbps up to 300 m or 10 Mbps up to 800 m (most IP cameras work fine at 10 Mbps for sub-stream + main-stream H.265+). Eliminates intermediate switches on long perimeter, carpark or warehouse runs. A real advantage over the 4-Series, which doesn't have ePoE on any port.
Should I get the 5208 or the 16-channel 5216?
If you need more than 8 cameras now or expect to scale within the warranty period, choose the 5216-16P — it's the same hardware platform but doubles the PoE port count and AcuPick channels. If 8 channels covers your site and you'd rather save the budget for better cameras or longer storage, the 5208 (this model) is the sweet spot — same chassis, same AI features, same warranty.
Should I get the 5208 or the cheaper 4208-8P?
Same 8 channels, same alarm I/O and 2-HDD chassis — but the 5208 (this model) adds AcuPick, 32 MP support, 384 Mbps bandwidth, ePoE on all 8 ports, RS-485 serial, USB 3.0, video metadata search, N+M cluster failover and iSCSI. Choose the 5208 if AcuPick or 32 MP cameras are on the roadmap; choose the 4208 if you're certain you'll stay on 16 MP or lower and don't need ePoE.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR5208-8P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 22.06) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. Standard recording works with any ONVIF camera; AcuPick and the deeper AI search features require Dahua WizSense / AcuPick IPCs.
How much storage do I need for 8 cameras?
For 8 × 8 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, allow ~10-12 TB for 30 days of retention. A pair of 8 TB or 10 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) covers most use cases. If on-board capacity isn't enough, iSCSI lets you expand onto network-attached storage.

Frequently asked questions
How many cameras can the built-in PoE actually power?
All 8 ports deliver PoE+ up to 25.5 W each, but the total budget across the recorder is 72 W. In practice that's enough for 8 standard bullets/turrets at 5-9 W each, or about 2-3 high-power PTZ/IR-heavy cameras at 25 W each plus a few standard cams. Plan for ~9 W average per channel.
Does this NVR support AcuPick?
No — AcuPick is reserved for Dahua's 5-Series WizSense Plus NVRs paired with TiOC PV cameras. This is a 4-Series NVR, so it supports Quick Pick instead (the original colour/clothing-based target search). If you specifically need AcuPick, ask CCTV Guru about a 5-Series NVR.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 21.12) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. AI features run best with Dahua WizSense cameras, but standard recording works with any ONVIF-compliant camera.
What's the difference vs the 16-channel NVR4216-16P?
The 4216-16P has 16 IP channels, 16 PoE ports (130 W budget), 2 SATA bays (~32 TB), 4 alarm-in / 2 alarm-out terminals, RS-232 and an internal universal-voltage PSU. The 4108HS-8P (this model) is the compact 8-channel sibling — 8 PoE @ 72 W, single HDD bay, no alarm I/O, external 53 VDC adaptor. Same AI feature set on both.
What hard drive should I install?
Use a surveillance-rated SATA HDD up to 16 TB — Western Digital Purple or Seagate SkyHawk. Standard desktop drives are not rated for 24/7 recording and will fail prematurely. For 8 cameras at 4 MP H.265+ on motion-record, a 4-6 TB drive gives roughly 30 days; an 8 TB drive gives 45-60 days.
Can I view it on my phone?
Yes — install the free DMSS app on iOS or Android, scan the QR code on the NVR's local menu, and you'll have live view, playback, push notifications and two-way audio without configuring port forwarding or a static IP.
Does it have alarm input / output terminals?
No — this compact chassis omits physical alarm I/O and RS-232 to keep the footprint small. If you need to wire in PIRs, sirens or gate triggers via hardware terminals, step up to the 16-channel DHI-NVR4216-16P-AI/ANZ (4 alarm-in / 2 alarm-out) or use camera-side alarm linkage instead.

Frequently asked questions
How many cameras can the built-in PoE actually power?
All 16 ports deliver PoE+ up to 25.5 W each, but the total budget across the recorder is 130 W. In practice that's enough for ~16 standard bullets/turrets at 5-7 W each, or roughly 5 high-power PTZ/IR-heavy cameras at 25 W each. Mix accordingly, or daisy-chain a PoE injector if you need more headroom.
Does this NVR support AcuPick?
No — AcuPick is reserved for Dahua's 5-Series WizSense Plus NVRs paired with TiOC PV cameras. This is a 4-Series NVR, so it supports Quick Pick instead (the original colour/clothing-based target search). If you specifically need AcuPick, ask CCTV Guru about the NVR5208-8P-4KS3 family.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR4216-16P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 21.12) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. AI features run best with Dahua WizSense cameras, but recording works with any ONVIF camera.
What's the difference between the AI/ANZ and the EI version?
The AI/ANZ is the Australia / NZ-market SKU — same hardware as the global EI model, but with regional firmware, AS/NZS-compliant power supply, and a 3-year warranty backed locally in Australia. The EI is the European-region equivalent. Functionally identical; commercially region-specific.
How much storage do I need for 16 cameras?
A common starting point is 16 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record — roughly 10-12 TB will give you about 30 days. Fit two 8 TB or 10 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) and you're set; the NVR supports up to 16 TB per bay (~32 TB total).
Can I view it on my phone?
Yes — install the free DMSS app on iOS or Android, scan the QR code on the NVR's local menu, and you'll have live view, playback, push notifications and two-way audio without configuring port forwarding or a static IP.
Does it rack-mount?
Yes — the 1U chassis (375 × 329 × 53 mm) fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (sold separately), or sits flat on a shelf. At just 2.6 kg without HDDs, it's also fine on a sturdy desk under a monitor.

What is WizSense SMD+?Smart Motion Detection Plus is Dahua's deep-learning AI that classifies motion as human or vehicle, filtering out animals, foliage and weather — so you only get alerted on what matters.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR has one SATA bay (up to 10 TB) but ships without storage. For 4 × 5MP on motion-only, ~2 TB gives roughly 3 weeks; choose 4 TB+ for continuous recording.
Do I need a separate PoE switch?No — the NVR has 4 built-in PoE ports. Each camera connects directly with a single Cat6 cable carrying power and video.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes — choose the 8-channel NVR4108 option and you get 4 spare PoE ports to add up to 4 more cameras. The 4-channel NVR4104 option uses all 4 ports.
Is remote viewing included?Yes — the free DMSS app (iOS/Android) gives live view, playback and push alerts from anywhere via P2P. No static IP or port forwarding required.

What's the difference between the TiOC and Dual-Light cameras?The 2 TiOC cameras add active deterrence — a siren, red/blue strobe and two-way voice warning — so they scare intruders off, not just record. The 4 Dual-Light cameras give continuous full-colour coverage. All six are 8MP 4K.
Do all cameras record in colour at night?Yes — all 6 use a warm-light illuminator for 24/7 full colour. If you'd prefer no visible light somewhere, the Dual-Light cameras can be switched to IR mode for discreet black-and-white at night.
Does this kit do AcuPick?Yes — choose the AcuPick NVR5208 option from the drop-down. The cameras are AcuPick-native, and the NVR5208 adds full attribute smart search: find a person or vehicle by clothing colour, vehicle type or direction of travel. The Standard NVR4108 option still gives Quick Pick target search.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR has one SATA bay (up to 10 TB) but ships without storage. For 6 × 8MP on motion-only, ~2 TB gives 7–10 days, ~4 TB gives 14–20 days; choose more for continuous recording.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes. The NVR has 8 PoE ports and you're using 6, so you can add up to 2 more cameras by plugging them into the spare ports — no recorder upgrade needed.

Key Features
Penta-brid Flexibility — 5 Camera Types, 1 Recorder
Accepts HDCVI, AHD, TVI, CVBS analogue cameras and IP cameras simultaneously. Reuse existing coaxial cable infrastructure while adding IP cameras on the same NVR. No rip-and-replace required.
4K Recording (8MP)
Records analogue channels at up to 4K resolution via HDCVI, and IP channels at up to 8MP. Capture faces, plates, and fine detail with confidence — even on wide-angle shots.
WizSense AI — SMD Plus on All 8 Channels
Smart Motion Detection Plus uses deep learning to distinguish humans and vehicles from animals, foliage, and environmental noise. Dramatically reduces false alarms and makes event search fast and precise.
Perimeter Protection (2 Channels)
Define virtual tripwires and intrusion zones on up to 2 analogue channels. The XVR triggers alerts only when a human or vehicle crosses the boundary — not every time a leaf blows past.
Face Detection & Recognition (2 Channels)
Detect and log faces on up to 2 channels. Search recorded footage by face attributes in seconds — no more scrubbing through hours of video to find a specific person.
Expandable to 16 IP Channels
The 8 BNC ports handle analogue cameras, but the XVR can simultaneously manage up to 16 IP camera channels at up to 8MP each — giving you a clear upgrade path without replacing the recorder.
H.265+ Compression
H.265+ dual-stream compression reduces storage consumption by up to 75% versus H.264 — meaning your HDD lasts longer and your bandwidth stays manageable.
Remote Access via DMSS & SmartPSS
Monitor live and recorded footage from anywhere via the DMSS mobile app (iOS & Android) or SmartPSS desktop client. P2P connection — no static IP or port forwarding required.
Recommended For
Analogue Camera Upgrades

Small Retail & Convenience Stores
8 channels covers entry, POS counter, stockroom, and car park. SMD Plus filters out false alarms from foot traffic — only genuine intrusion events trigger notifications.
Warehouses & Industrial Sites
Perimeter Protection on 2 channels secures loading docks and yard boundaries. Face detection logs who enters the office or server room.
Small Offices & Commercial Premises
Compact 1U chassis fits in a server rack or comms cabinet. Remote access via DMSS keeps management informed without on-site visits.
Residential Homes
8 channels covers every entry point, garage, and outdoor area. H.265+ compression maximises HDD retention time. DMSS app provides instant mobile alerts.
Schools & Childcare Centres
AI-powered SMD Plus reduces nuisance alerts in busy environments. Face detection supports access logging at entry points.

What is Smart Dual-Light?The cameras use both IR and warm white light. They run on invisible IR until WizSense AI detects a person or vehicle, then switch to warm light for full-colour footage — so you get colour evidence only when it matters, without lighting up the property all night.
Do they record in colour at night?Yes — full colour 24/7 via the warm-light array. You can also lock them to IR-only mode for discreet black-and-white at night if you prefer no visible light.
Does this kit do AcuPick?Yes — choose the AcuPick AI NVR (NVR5208) option for full AcuPick attribute search (find a person or vehicle by clothing colour, vehicle type and direction). The Standard AI NVR (NVR4108) option gives Quick Pick target search. Both are 8-channel AI NVRs; the cameras are AcuPick-native.

NVR4104HS-P vs NVR4108HS-8P — how it compares
Both compact 1-HDD WizSense NVRs share the same chassis, the same AI feature set and the same DMSS mobile app. The 4108HS (8-channel) adds bandwidth, Gigabit uplink and more PoE budget for larger installs — the 4104HS (this model) is the cost-effective choice when you only need four cameras and want enterprise-grade AI without overspending.

Frequently asked questions
Is 80 Mbps bandwidth enough for 4 cameras?
Yes — for 4 cameras at up to 4 MP each running Smart H.265+, comfortably within the 80 Mbps envelope. If you're planning to run all four channels at 8 MP @ 30 fps with the highest bitrate, you'll hit the ceiling — step up to the NVR4108HS-8P (256 Mbps) for headroom. For typical home and small-shop installs, 80 Mbps is plenty.
How many cameras can the built-in PoE actually power?
All 4 ports deliver PoE+ up to 25.5 W each, but the total budget across the recorder is 36 W. That comfortably runs 4 standard bullets / turrets at 5-9 W each. If you're planning a PTZ or IR-heavy camera (~15-20 W), you may need to keep the other ports on lower-draw cameras or use an external PoE injector.
Does this NVR support AcuPick?
No — AcuPick is reserved for Dahua's 5-Series WizSense Plus NVRs paired with TiOC PV cameras. This is a 4-Series NVR, so it supports Quick Pick instead (the original colour/clothing-based target search). If you specifically need AcuPick, ask CCTV Guru about a 5-Series NVR.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR4104HS-P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 21.12) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. AI features run best with Dahua WizSense cameras, but standard recording works with any ONVIF-compliant camera.
What hard drive should I install?
Use a surveillance-rated SATA HDD up to 16 TB — Western Digital Purple or Seagate SkyHawk. Standard desktop drives are not rated for 24/7 recording and will fail prematurely. For 4 cameras at 4 MP H.265+ on motion-record, a 2-4 TB drive gives roughly 30-60 days of retention.
Can I view it on my phone?
Yes — install the free DMSS app on iOS or Android, scan the QR code on the NVR's local menu, and you'll have live view, playback, push notifications and two-way audio without configuring port forwarding or a static IP.
Why is the network port only 10/100 Mbps?
The NVR4104HS-P-AI/ANZ uses Fast Ethernet on the uplink because the recorder's total bandwidth is 80 Mbps — well within Fast Ethernet capacity. The 8-channel and 16-channel siblings use Gigabit because their 256 Mbps capacity exceeds 100 Mbps. This isn't a bottleneck for this model; the 80 Mbps cap is the same number whether the port is 100 Mbps or 1 Gbps.

Hikvision Camera Quick Start Guide
Why a 16-channel NVR for six cameras?Starting on a 16-channel recorder means you never have to replace it later. Ten spare channels and PoE ports let you add cameras as the business grows, and the M-Series engine gives plenty of bandwidth for all six 4K cameras now.
What's the difference between the three camera types?The Live-Guard turrets add strobe, siren and two-way audio for active deterrence; the audio turrets are detail-focused DarkFighter cameras with a mic; the mini-domes are low-profile, IK08 vandal-resistant cameras ideal for indoor and entry coverage.
Are the mini-domes vandal-resistant?Yes — the DS-2CD2586G2-IS is rated IK08 against impact and tampering, plus IP67 for dust and water resistance, so it suits exposed entries and public-facing areas.
Can I turn off the strobe and siren?Yes. The Live-Guard deterrence can be scheduled to activate only after hours or disabled entirely from the Hik-Connect app or NVR menu.
Is a hard drive included?No — the NVR ships as a chassis with two empty SATA bays (up to 32 TB total). Add a surveillance-grade Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple drive to record from day one.

16 × PoE+ ports built into the NVR — one Cat6 network cable per camera carries power and data, so there are no separate power supplies. Network cabling is run on site and is not included; pre-made Cat6 patch leads are available separately.
Mounting
Brackets and templates included for eave/soffit installs. For brick or flush-wall mounting, add a Dahua wall-mount bracket per camera; a junction box is also available for tidy cable management.

Installation Notes
›Cabling: run solid-copper Cat6 from each camera back to the NVR's PoE ports for stable power and video over long distances.
›Weatherproofing: even at IP67, seal outdoor RJ-45 joins with weatherproof tape or a junction box to keep out moisture and salt air.
›Storage & NVR placement: for 16 cameras consider an 8–16 TB drive, and mount the recorder in a cool, dust-free, ventilated spot for reliable 24/7 recording.

Dahua Camera Quick Start Guide
Does this kit include a hard drive?No — the kit ships without a drive so you can size storage to your site. Add a surveillance-grade Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple HDD from the storage selector below and we'll fit it before dispatch.
How much storage do I need for 16 cameras?For continuous 24/7 recording across all 16 cameras we'd suggest 8–16 TB. The NVR takes up to 16 TB per bay (32 TB total), so you can fit one or two drives — add the drive you need from the storage selector below.
Are these official Australian-stock models?Yes. Every component is genuine Dahua ANZ stock with regional firmware and a local Australian warranty backed by CCTV Guru — not grey import.
How are the cameras powered?Each camera runs on a single Cat6 cable to one of the NVR's 16 built-in PoE ports — no separate power supplies or powerpoints at the camera. Cat6 cabling is run on site and not included.
Can I add more than 16 cameras later?This kit uses all 16 channels. To go beyond 16 cameras you'd move to a 32-channel NVR (and a PoE switch for the extra cameras) — our team can spec the right upgrade.

This Dahua 4-camera 8MP (4K) kit pairs active deterrence with full-colour coverage: 2 × DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 TiOC 3.0 turrets fire a siren, red/blue strobe and two-way voice warning the moment WizSense AI detects a person or vehicle at your entries, while 2 × DH-IPC-HDW3867EM-S-IL-ANZ Smart Dual-Light turrets give continuous full-colour coverage everywhere else. Choose your recorder: a 4-channel or 8-channel AI NVR with fast Quick Pick target search, or step up to the 8-channel AcuPick NVR5208 for full attribute search — find a person or vehicle by clothing colour, vehicle type and direction. The 8CH options leave 4 PoE ports free to grow; the TiOC and Dual-Light cameras are AcuPick-native.

What's the difference between the TiOC and Dual-Light cameras?The 2 TiOC cameras add active deterrence — a siren, red/blue strobe and two-way voice warning. The 2 Dual-Light cameras give continuous full-colour coverage. All four are 8MP 4K.
Which NVR should I choose?The 4CH NVR4104 suits a fixed four-camera system; the 8CH NVR4108 leaves 4 spare PoE ports to expand. Choose the AcuPick NVR5208 if you want attribute smart search — find people or vehicles by colour, clothing and direction in seconds.
Do all cameras record in colour at night?Yes — all four use a warm-light illuminator for 24/7 full colour. The Dual-Light cameras can also be switched to IR-only mode for discreet black-and-white at night.
Does this kit do AcuPick?Yes — choose the AcuPick NVR5208 option for full AcuPick attribute search (find a person or vehicle by clothing colour, vehicle type and direction). The 4CH and 8CH NVR options give Quick Pick target search. The cameras are AcuPick-native.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR has one SATA bay (up to 10 TB) but ships without storage. For 4 × 8MP on motion-only, ~2 TB gives roughly 2–3 weeks; choose more for continuous recording.

Hikvision Camera Quick Start Guide
Should I choose the 6MP or 8MP kit?Both use the same ColorVu 3.0 Live-Guard turret with strobe, siren and two-way audio. Choose 6MP (3200 × 1800) for excellent detail and lower storage use; choose 8MP 4K (3840 × 2160) for maximum clarity on faces, plates and larger coverage areas.
What is Live-Guard active deterrence?On AcuSense human/vehicle detection each camera flashes a white-light strobe, sounds a 110 dB warning and lets you open live two-way audio via Hik-Connect — actively turning intruders away.
Do these really see colour at night?Yes — ColorVu 3.0 with an F1.0 super-aperture delivers full-colour images down to 0.0005 lux, with Smart Hybrid Light adding white light or IR as needed.
Is a hard drive included?No — this kit ships without an HDD so you can size storage to your needs. Add a surveillance-grade drive (4TB suits most 4-camera installs, 6TB+ for 8MP or continuous recording); the NVR has two SATA bays for up to 32 TB total.
How are the cameras powered, and can I add more?Each camera runs on a single Cat6 cable to one of the NVR's 8 built-in PoE ports — no separate power supplies. The 8-channel NVR lets you add up to four more compatible Hikvision IP cameras later.

What's the difference between the TiOC and Dual-Light cameras?The 2 TiOC cameras add active deterrence — a siren, red/blue strobe and two-way voice warning — so they scare intruders off, not just record. The 4 Smart Dual-Light cameras give continuous full-colour coverage. All six are 6MP.
Do all cameras record in colour at night?Yes — all 6 use a warm-light illuminator for 24/7 full colour. The Dual-Light cameras run invisible IR until AI detects a person or vehicle, then switch to warm light to capture colour.
Does this kit do AcuPick?Yes — choose the AcuPick NVR5208 option from the drop-down. The cameras are AcuPick-native, and the NVR5208 adds full attribute smart search: find a person or vehicle by clothing colour, vehicle type or direction of travel. The Standard NVR4108 option still gives Quick Pick target search.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR has one SATA bay (up to 10 TB) but ships without storage. For 6 × 6MP on motion-only, ~2 TB gives 10–14 days, ~3 TB gives around 2–3 weeks; choose more for continuous recording.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes. The NVR has 8 PoE ports and you're using 6, so you can add up to 2 more cameras by plugging them into the spare ports — no recorder upgrade needed.

Is this kit really full colour at night?Yes. Smart Dual Light runs IR by default, then switches to a 30 m warm-white LED the moment AI detects a person or vehicle — recording full-colour footage of the event before returning to IR.
Can I turn off the white light at night?Yes. Smart Dual Light has three modes — Smart Dual (IR by default, warm light only on AI detection), full-colour (warm light always on) and IR-only. If you'd rather avoid any visible spotlight, set IR mode and the cameras keep recording clear black-and-white footage at night with no white light at all.
What's the difference between the two NVR options?The NVR4216 is the standard 16CH AI recorder. The NVR5216 adds AcuPick attribute search and higher bandwidth. AcuPick only runs on the 5-Series, so choose the 5216 if fast footage search matters to you.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR has two SATA bays but ships without storage. We recommend a surveillance-grade Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple HDD, available as an add-on above.
How are the cameras powered?Each camera runs on a single Cat6 cable to one of the NVR's 16 built-in PoE ports — no separate power supplies or powerpoints at the camera.
Can I view it on my phone?Yes. Remote live view, playback and AI alerts are free through the Dahua DMSS app on iOS and Android, plus Smart PSS Lite on desktop.

What's the difference between the standard and AcuPick NVR?The 4-channel NVR4104 and 8-channel NVR4108 give Quick Pick target search. The 8-channel AcuPick NVR5208 adds full attribute search — find a person or vehicle by colour, clothing and direction — plus face detection, 2 HDD bays and room to add cameras.
What is Smart Dual-Light?The cameras use both IR and warm white light. They run on invisible IR until WizSense AI detects a person or vehicle, then switch to warm light for full-colour footage — so you get colour evidence only when it matters, without lighting up the property all night.
Do they record in colour at night?Yes — full colour 24/7 via the warm-light array. You can also lock them to IR-only mode for discreet black-and-white at night if you prefer no visible light.
Does this kit do AcuPick?The cameras are AcuPick-native. The 4-channel NVR4104 or 8-channel NVR4108 (Quick Pick) options give target search; choose the 8-channel AcuPick NVR5208 option for full AcuPick attribute search — find a person or vehicle by colour, clothing and direction.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR has one SATA bay (up to 10 TB) but ships without storage. For 4 × 8MP on motion-only, ~2 TB gives roughly 2–3 weeks; choose more for continuous recording.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes — choose an 8-channel NVR (NVR4108 or AcuPick NVR5208) option and it has 4 spare PoE ports, so you can add up to 4 more cameras. The 4-channel NVR4104 option uses all 4 ports.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference vs the compact NVR4108HS-8P?
The 4108HS is a smaller, lighter chassis with 1 HDD bay, no physical alarm terminals, and an external 53 VDC power adaptor. The 4208-8P (this model) uses the same full-size chassis as the 16-channel 4216 — 2 HDD bays for double the storage, 4 alarm-in / 2 alarm-out terminals on the rear panel, and an internal 100-240 VAC PSU with a standard kettle cord. Same 8 channels, same WizSense AI, same 72 W PoE budget.
How many cameras can the built-in PoE actually power?
All 8 ports deliver PoE+ up to 25.5 W each, but the total budget across the recorder is 72 W. In practice that's enough for 8 standard bullets/turrets at 5-9 W each, or roughly 2-3 high-power PTZ/IR-heavy cameras at 25 W each plus a few standard cams. Plan for ~9 W average per channel.
Does this NVR support AcuPick?
No — AcuPick is reserved for Dahua's 5-Series WizSense Plus NVRs paired with TiOC PV cameras. This is a 4-Series NVR, so it supports Quick Pick instead (the original colour/clothing-based target search). If you specifically need AcuPick, ask CCTV Guru about a 5-Series NVR.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR4208-8P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 21.12) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. AI features run best with Dahua WizSense cameras, but standard recording works with any ONVIF-compliant camera.
What hard drives should I install?
Use surveillance-rated SATA HDDs up to 16 TB each — Western Digital Purple or Seagate SkyHawk. Two drives can be configured as one large pool or kept as separate disk groups for camera-segregated recording. For 8 cameras at 4 MP H.265+, a pair of 6-8 TB drives gives ~60-90 days of retention.
Can I view it on my phone?
Yes — install the free DMSS app on iOS or Android, scan the QR code on the NVR's local menu, and you'll have live view, playback, push notifications and two-way audio without configuring port forwarding or a static IP.
What can I wire into the alarm terminals?
The 4 alarm inputs accept dry-contact NO/NC devices — PIR motion sensors, door reed switches, glass-break detectors, panic buttons or external trigger relays. The 2 alarm outputs are dry-contact relays that can drive sirens, strobe lights, electric gate triggers or a second relay stage. Linkable to record / snapshot / push-notification events in the NVR menu.

WizSense + AcuPick · 5-Series · 16-Channel · 16-PoE · 4-HDD · 1.5U
16CH AcuPick NVR
The Dahua DHI-NVR5416-16P-AI/ANZ is a 16-channel 5-Series WizSense AI NVR with AcuPick, 16 built-in PoE+ ports (ports 1–8 ePoE up to 800 m), and a 1.5U chassis with four SATA bays — the perfect middle-ground between the compact 2-HDD 5216-16P and the storage-heavy 8-HDD 5832-16P. Record up to 32 MP per channel, plug 16 cameras straight into the back of the recorder, and scale storage to roughly 64 TB on-board across four 16 TB drives.
This is the official Australia / NZ-market SKU (the AI/ANZ suffix). It's the all-in-one 16-channel option with double the storage of the 5216-16P — same PoE budget, same chassis depth, but room for two extra HDDs and longer retention. Internal 100–240 VAC universal PSU, AS/NZS-compliant kettle cord, and a local 3-year warranty backed by CCTV Guru in Sydney. AcuPick, N+M cluster, iSCSI and ONVIF 23.12 are enabled by Dahua's V5 firmware (current factory ship as of 2025).
16 PoE+ ports + 4-HDD storage — built for upgrades
PoE Ports
16 × · 130 W · 1–8 ePoE 800 m
Storage
4 SATA · up to 64 TB on-board
16 cameras plug straight in
Each Cat6 run carries power and video back to the NVR — no power adaptors at every camera, no separate PoE switch. Full 16-channel PoE coverage with a 130 W total budget — comfortable for typical Dahua WizSense bullets and turrets at 7–9 W each.
ePoE on ports 1–8 (800 m)
Extended PoE on the first 8 ports — 100 Mbps up to 300 m, or 10 Mbps up to 800 m on Cat6. Eliminates intermediate switches and fibre runs on long perimeter or carpark cable runs.
4 SATA bays · 64 TB max
Twice the storage of the smaller 5216-16P. Four surveillance-grade HDDs (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) up to 16 TB each — roughly 90–120 days of 16-channel motion-record at 4 MP H.265+.
Powers PoE+ cameras
25.5 W per port (PoE+ / 802.3at) — handles IR-heavy bullets, mini PTZs, multi-sensor cameras and active-deterrence units that exceed the basic 15 W PoE ceiling. Plan for ~8 W average per camera across the 16 ports.

Frequently asked questions
What's the real benefit over the smaller NVR5216-16P?
Same 16 channels and same 16 PoE+ ports — but the 5416-16P (this model) doubles the HDD bays from 2 to 4, doubles your on-board storage ceiling (~64 TB vs ~32 TB), upgrades video output from single HDMI/VGA to dual HDMI/VGA, and adds 16 alarm inputs / 6 alarm outputs (vs 4 / 2) plus eSATA. Choose this when you want longer retention or hardware alarm integration on your 16-channel build.
What does ePoE on ports 1–8 give me?
Extended PoE — long-distance Cat6 runs at reduced speed. Ports 1–8 support 100 Mbps up to 300 m or 10 Mbps up to 800 m (most IP cameras work fine at 10 Mbps for sub-stream + main-stream H.265+). Eliminates intermediate switches on long perimeter or carpark runs. Ports 9–16 run standard PoE+ at up to 100 m.
Does this NVR really support AcuPick?
Yes. Dahua's V5 firmware (binary DH_NVR5XXX-EI_MultiLang_V5.001.0000000.0.R.251220 or later) enables AcuPick on the AI/ANZ unit alongside N+M cluster, iSCSI and ONVIF 23.12. The firmware is published on Dahua AU's official product page and ships from CCTV Guru with V5 installed.
How much storage do I need for 16 cameras?
For 16 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, expect ~12–18 TB for 30 days of retention. Four 6–8 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) gives you ~24–32 TB on-board — roughly 60–90 days. For longer retention or higher resolution, fit 16 TB drives (the maximum supported) for up to 64 TB total.
How does the 16 PoE budget cover 16 cameras?
130 W total ÷ 16 cameras = ~8 W average per camera. That's comfortable for most Dahua WizSense bullets and turrets (5–9 W each). If you're running PTZ, IR-heavy bullets or active-deterrence units (15–25 W each), plan to mix in some lower-draw cameras or use an external PoE injector for the high-power ones.
Can it be rack-mounted?
Yes — 1.5U / 440 mm wide fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (rack ears sold separately). At 4.82 kg empty (without HDDs), plan for ~8–10 kg fully loaded with four drives.
What's the 12 V alarm output for?
One of the 6 alarm outputs is a direct 12 V 1 A power feed — drive a siren, strobe light or electric strike directly without needing an external relay or power supply. The other 5 outputs are dry-contact relays you can wire to anything that takes a NO/NC trigger.

Smart H.265+ for half the storage
AI-tuned H.265+ encoding cuts bitrate on static background pixels while preserving detail on moving targets — roughly half the storage and bandwidth of standard H.264.
ePoE · alarm I/O · serial — built for installers
ePoE on ports 1–8
The first 8 PoE ports support Dahua ePoE — extended-distance PoE up to 800 m on Cat6 (and 300 m at full 100 Mbps). Eliminates intermediate switches on long perimeter runs.
4 alarm-in / 2 alarm-out
Physical terminal block on the rear panel — wire in PIRs, door sensors, glass-break detectors, panic buttons, sirens or gate triggers for hardware-level event linkage.
RS-232 + RS-485
Both serial standards present — integrate with POS systems, gate controllers, access control panels, intercoms or third-party VMS that need legacy serial.
ONVIF 22.06 (T / S / G)
Latest ONVIF profile support — drops into any modern VMS, and accepts cameras from Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon as well as Dahua.
DMSS mobile + iSCSI storage
Free iOS / Android DMSS viewer with live view, playback, push notifications and P2P remote access. iSCSI lets you expand storage onto any compatible network appliance.
3-Year Australian warranty
Backed locally by CCTV Guru in Sydney with replacement stock on hand. No overseas RMA, no shipping back to the manufacturer — a real Australian warranty.
NVR5216-16P vs NVR4216-16P — how it compares
Both are 16-channel, 16-PoE, full-1U Dahua NVRs with the same chassis, dual HDD bays and Australian warranty. The 5216 (this model) is the premium AI tier — AcuPick, 32 MP, ePoE, N+M cluster and roughly double the AI channel counts. The 4216 is the value option when AcuPick and 32 MP aren't required.

Frequently asked questions
What is AcuPick and how is it different to Quick Pick?
AcuPick is Dahua's next-generation video search technology — it uses BOTH camera-side and NVR-side AI to extract rich attributes (clothing, body shape, vehicle make/model/colour/plate, direction, action) from every frame as it records, then lets you search by a reference image OR by combined attributes. Quick Pick (on the 4-Series) does single-attribute colour/clothing search only. AcuPick is faster, more accurate, and supports both people and vehicles natively.
Do I need special cameras for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick relies on camera-side intelligence to extract attributes during recording. You need Dahua's WizSense-Plus AcuPick-ready cameras (typically the TiOC PV and 5-Series IPC families). Standard WizSense cameras will still record and recognise faces, but the full AcuPick search depth needs paired AcuPick IPCs.
What does ePoE on ports 1–8 give me?
Extended PoE — long-distance Cat6 runs at reduced speed. Ports 1–8 support 100 Mbps up to 300 m or 10 Mbps up to 800 m (most IP cameras work fine at 10 Mbps for sub-stream + main-stream H.265+). Eliminates intermediate switches on long perimeter or carpark runs. Ports 9–16 run standard PoE+ at up to 100 m.
What is N+M cluster and when do I need it?
N+M cluster lets you pair multiple 5-Series NVRs so that backup recorders automatically take over if a primary unit fails — zero footage loss for critical sites. Useful for casinos, banks, transport hubs, hospitals and any install where a single-recorder outage would breach SLA. Configure via the NVR's local GUI or DSS-Pro.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR5216-16P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 22.06) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. Standard recording works with any ONVIF camera; AcuPick and the deeper AI search features require Dahua WizSense / AcuPick IPCs.
How much storage do I need for 16 cameras?
For 16 × 8 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, allow ~20-25 TB for 30 days of retention. Two 16 TB drives in disk-group config will hit roughly 45-60 days. If on-board capacity isn't enough, the NVR supports iSCSI for network-attached storage expansion.
Can I view it on my phone?
Yes — install the free DMSS app on iOS or Android, scan the QR code on the NVR's local menu, and you'll have live view, playback, push notifications and two-way audio without configuring port forwarding or a static IP.

Retention depends on your cameras. Figures above assume all 4 × 8MP cameras recording continuously in H.265 at ~4 Mbps. Running fewer cameras, a lower resolution/frame rate, or motion/smart-event recording will extend storage time considerably; higher bitrate or more cameras added to the spare channels will reduce it. Estimates are a guide only and vary with scene activity and camera settings.
Installation Notes
›Camera placement: mount cameras 2.5–3 m high, angled down across entries, driveways and perimeters; keep warm-light LEDs clear of walls and eaves to avoid glare.
›Cabling & sealing: run solid-copper Cat6 to each camera and seal outdoor RJ-45 joins with a junction box or weatherproof tape against moisture and salt air.
›NVR & storage: fit a surveillance-grade HDD before first boot, and place the recorder in a cool, dust-free, ventilated spot away from direct sunlight for reliable 24/7 recording.

Uniview UNV Turret Quick Start Guide
Uniview UNV Turret User Manual
Do the cameras record in colour at night?Yes. These are 8MP OwlView ColorHunter cameras — the 1/1.8″ sensor, F1.0 lens and Wise-ISP deliver true full-colour video 24/7, with warm-light LEDs reaching up to 30 m in dark scenes.
Is this kit NDAA compliant?Yes. Both the Uniview UNV ColorHunter cameras and the NVR501-08B-P8-IQ recorder are NDAA Section 889 compliant, making this kit suitable for government, education and security-sensitive sites in Australia.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR has one SATA bay but ships without storage. We recommend a surveillance-grade Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple HDD. See the retention table above to size your drive to how long you want to keep footage.
How much recording time will I get?It depends on your cameras and settings. With all 4 × 8MP cameras recording continuously, roughly 4 TB holds about 3 weeks; switching to motion/smart-event recording or fewer cameras extends that significantly (full table above).
How are the cameras powered?Each camera runs on a single Cat6 cable to one of the NVR's 8 built-in PoE ports — no separate power supplies or powerpoints at the camera.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes. The NVR has 8 PoE ports and you're using 4, so you can add up to 4 more cameras by plugging them into the spare ports — no recorder upgrade needed.
What is AcuSearch, AcuTrack and SeekFree?They're the recorder's -IQ AI review tools: AcuSearch filters footage by people and vehicles, AcuTrack follows a target across cameras, and SeekFree lets you search recordings by typing what you're after — so you find events in seconds.
Can I view it remotely?Yes. Free P2P cloud access through the Uniview UNV app and EZCloud lets you watch live and recorded footage from your phone or computer anywhere.

TiOC + Dual Light
Dahua 10 × 8MP 4K Full-Colour CCTV Kit — 4 × TiOC 3.0 Active Deterrence + 6 × Smart Dual-Light + 16-Channel AI NVR
A complete 10-camera 8MP (4K) system for larger homes and commercial sites: 4 × DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 TiOC 3.0 turrets fire a siren, red/blue strobe and two-way voice warning the moment WizSense AI detects a person or vehicle at your key entries, while 6 × DH-IPC-HDW3867EM-S-IL-ANZ Smart Dual-Light turrets give continuous full-colour coverage across the rest of the property. All ten are 8MP 4K with SMD 4.0 AI. Both recorder options are 16-channel AI NVRs — the difference is search: the Standard AI NVR (NVR4216-16P) gives fast Quick Pick target search, while the AcuPick AI NVR (NVR5216-16P) adds full AcuPick attribute search — find a person or vehicle by clothing colour, vehicle type and direction. Both have dual HDD bays and 6 spare channels; the TiOC and Dual-Light cameras are AcuPick-native, so the 5216 unlocks their full forensic search.

What's the difference between the TiOC and Dual-Light cameras?The 4 TiOC cameras add active deterrence — a siren, red/blue strobe and two-way voice warning. The 6 Dual-Light cameras give continuous full-colour coverage. All ten are 8MP 4K.
Why a 16-channel NVR for 10 cameras?It leaves 6 spare PoE channels so you can expand later without replacing the recorder, and the two HDD bays give you room for long retention across ten 8MP streams.
Does this kit do AcuPick?Yes — choose the AcuPick AI NVR (NVR5216-16P) option for full AcuPick attribute search (find a person or vehicle by clothing colour, vehicle type and direction). The Standard AI NVR (NVR4216-16P) option gives Quick Pick target search. Both are 16-channel AI NVRs; the cameras are AcuPick-native.
How much storage do I need?No HDD is included. For 10 × 8MP on motion-only, ~6–8 TB gives 1–2 weeks; fit both bays (e.g. 2 × 8 TB) for several weeks or continuous recording.
Do all cameras record in colour at night?Yes — all ten use a warm-light illuminator for 24/7 full colour. The Dual-Light cameras can also switch to IR-only mode for discreet black-and-white at night.

What does TiOC 3.0 mean?TiOC stands for Three-in-One Camera: full-colour night vision, active deterrence (siren + red/blue strobe) and two-way audio in a single device — so the camera responds to intruders rather than just recording them.
Which NVR should I choose?The 4CH NVR4104 and 8CH NVR4108 are tidy, affordable Quick-Pick recorders — pick the 8CH if you want spare ports to add cameras later. The 8CH AcuPick NVR5208 adds full attribute search, face detection and 2 HDD bays — choose it if you want AcuPick smart search.
Why is this called 3K?6MP (3072 × 2048) sits between 1080p and 4K — commonly marketed as 3K. More detail than 1080p, lower storage and bandwidth than 4K.
Do the cameras record in colour at night?Yes — warm-light illuminators give 24/7 full colour. You can switch to IR-only mode for discreet black-and-white at night if you prefer no visible light.
Does a hard drive come included?No — add a surveillance-grade drive sized to your retention. For 4 × 6MP on motion-only, ~2 TB gives roughly 2–3 weeks; choose more for continuous recording.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this kit require a subscription?
No. UniFi Protect runs fully locally on the UNVR Instant. There are no monthly fees, no cloud subscription, and no data leaving your premises.
Can the UNVR Instant power all 4 cameras?
Yes. The UNVR Instant has 6 built-in PoE ports with a 40 W total budget (up to 15.4 W per port), which powers and records all four G6 Turret cameras from a single appliance — no separate PoE switch needed.
What HDD do I need?
Any compatible 3.5″ SATA surveillance-grade HDD. We recommend WD Purple or Seagate SkyHawk for 24/7 recording reliability. The HDD is not included in this kit.
Can I add more cameras later?
Yes. The UNVR Instant has 6 PoE ports and supports up to 6 × 4K cameras, so you can add two more (within the 40 W PoE budget). For larger systems, connect additional cameras via the uplink port to a separate PoE switch.
Can I view cameras remotely?
Yes. The UniFi Protect app supports remote viewing via the UniFi cloud relay — no port forwarding required. Remote access is free with a UniFi account.
Are the cameras suitable for outdoor use in Australia?
Yes. IP66 weatherproofing, IK04 tamper resistance, and a −30°C to 50°C operating range make the G6 Turret fully suited to Australian outdoor environments including coastal and high-UV areas.

128CH WizMind NVR
The Dahua DHI-NVR608H-128-AI/ANZ is the 128-channel enterprise flagship of Dahua's WizMind range — an Ultra-series AI NVR engineered for the largest single-recorder deployments. AcuPick now runs across up to 64 channels simultaneously (double the smaller 608H-32), the AI by Recorder workload includes 8-channel face detection with a 40-database, 300,000-image face library, and total recording bandwidth scales to 1280 Mbps incoming / 1024 Mbps outgoing. Eight SATA bays with RAID 0/1/5/6/10 and drawer-style hot-swap deliver up to 128 TB on-board; iSCSI and eSATA take you well beyond that.
This is the official Australia / NZ-market SKU (the AI/ANZ suffix). It's a headend NVR with no built-in PoE — cameras connect via your managed network and PoE switch stack. Internal 100–240 VAC universal PSU, AS/NZS-compliant kettle cord, and a local 5-year warranty backed by CCTV Guru in Sydney. Built for shopping centres, transport hubs, hospitals, universities, casinos, large carparks and any single-site deployment that needs the maximum 128-camera ceiling on one recorder.

Face Database
40 DBs · 300,000 images · 48 GB
AcuPick on up to 64 channels
Twice the AcuPick capacity of the smaller 608H-32. Click any person or vehicle in recorded video, and the NVR scans the active 64 channels for matches across hours, days or weeks — clothing colour, body shape, vehicle make / model / colour / direction included.
Face Recognition at scale
8 NVR-side face detection channels feeding face recognition against a 40-database, 300,000-image library. Or 20 channels of camera-side detection + NVR-side recognition at 20 face snapshots/sec — large enough for staff registers, watchlists and visitor logs combined.
Perimeter Protection (32 ch by NVR)
32 NVR-side channels of tripwire and intrusion analytics (10 IVS rules each) — 8× the 5-Series capacity. Plus all-channel perimeter via camera-side processing — every camera benefits from human/vehicle classification.
SMD Plus on 32 channels by NVR
The AI chip's full SMD Plus capacity — 32 NVR-side channels of deep-learning second-pass classification, classifying targets as person or vehicle so only real events make it to your phone or VMS.
Video Metadata by NVR (8 channels)
NVR-side metadata extraction — top colour, bottom colour, hat, bag, umbrella, gender, age, vehicle make / model / colour / plate, helmet wear. Works regardless of camera brand (camera-side metadata requires Dahua WizSense or WizMind IPCs).
ANPR by camera (32 channels)
Pair with Dahua ANPR cameras for 32 channels of licence-plate recognition feeding a 20,000-plate database with blocklist / allowlist control. Carpark, fleet yard, toll-point and multi-site ANPR.

Bandwidth
1280 Mbps in / record · 1024 out
Storage
8 SATA · RAID 0/1/5/6/10 · hot-swap
1280 Mbps recording bandwidth
Higher than any other 5-Series or smaller 6-Series sibling. Spread across 128 cameras, plan for ~10 Mbps per camera average — perfect for 4 MP H.265+ on motion-record. For higher-bitrate workloads, prioritise the high-traffic channels and reserve the rest for lower-resolution sub-streams.
32-channel 1080p decoding
The decoder handles 32 cameras at 1080p simultaneously for the live wall, or 2 × 32 MP @ 30 fps for the highest-res cameras. Reserve high-resolution decoding for the channels you actually display.
4× HDMI + 2× VGA outputs
Drive up to six independent displays. HDMI3 supports 8K display; HDMI1 / HDMI2 deliver 4K each. Heterogeneous mode lets each HDMI run an independent layout — ideal for control rooms with multi-monitor walls.
8 SATA bays · drawer hot-swap
Eight surveillance-grade HDDs (WD Purple Pro, Seagate SkyHawk AI) up to 16 TB each in a drawer-style chassis — swap drives during operation without taking the recorder down. Total ~128 TB on-board.
Hardware RAID 0/1/5/6/10
Survive single-drive (RAID 5) or dual-drive (RAID 6) failures with zero footage loss. RAID 10 for performance + redundancy. Rebuilds run in the background while recording continues.
eSATA + iSCSI + ESS1504C expansion
External SATA archive port, iSCSI network storage, plus optional Dahua ESS1504C 4-HDD eSATA storage tray — essential for the long-retention workloads that 128-camera sites typically require.

Two independent RJ-45 ports running at 10/100/1000/2500 Mbps — 2.5× faster than the gigabit NICs on the 5-Series. Bondable for multi-address, load-balance and fault-tolerance modes (critical at 128-camera scale).
16 alarm-in / 8 alarm-out
Physical terminal block for 16 alarm inputs and 8 alarm outputs — wire in PIRs, door sensors, glass-break detectors, panic buttons, sirens or gate triggers for hardware-level event linkage.
4 × USB (2 × 2.0 + 2 × 3.0)
Two front USB 2.0 plus two rear USB 3.0 ports — plug in backup drives, USB mice, keyboards or service tools without juggling cables behind the rack.
RS-232 + RS-485
One RS-232 plus one RS-485 (A/B) — integrate with POS systems, gate controllers, access control panels, PTZ joysticks or third-party VMS that need legacy serial.
N+M cluster failover
Pair multiple 6-Series NVRs in an N+M cluster — backup recorders automatically take over if a primary fails, ensuring zero footage loss. Particularly important at 128-camera scale where a single-recorder outage would breach SLA.
ONVIF (T / S / G) + DSS Pro
Full ONVIF profile support plus Dahua's DSS Pro VMS for multi-site centralised control. Native integration with Sony, Axis, Pelco, Arecont, Canon, Samsung and any ONVIF-compliant camera.
NVR608H-128 vs the family — how it compares
The 608H-128 (this model) is the maximum channel-count single recorder in Dahua's AU/NZ NVR range — four times the channels of the 608H-32 sibling with twice the AcuPick capacity and 25% higher recording bandwidth. Choose this when you need every camera on one recorder. For sites running 32 cameras or fewer with the same WizMind feature depth, step down to the 608H-32.

Frequently asked questions
What's the real difference between the 608H-128 and the 608H-32?
Same hardware platform — same 2U chassis with 8 HDD bays, same WizMind AI processor, same dual 2.5 GbE NICs, same 4 × HDMI outputs (including the 8K port). The differences are the IP channel licence (128 vs 32) and the AcuPick capacity (64 channels vs 32). At 128 channels, the recording bandwidth (1280 Mbps) is shared across four times as many cameras, so plan camera resolutions accordingly — 4 MP H.265+ is the sweet spot.
Does the WizMind series get a longer warranty?
Yes — WizMind 6-Series enterprise NVRs ship with a 5-year warranty in Australia, two years longer than the 3-year warranty on Dahua's WizSense (4-Series and 5-Series) products. The longer cover reflects the project-grade build and is part of why WizMind units carry a premium over WizSense.
Why does AcuPick only run on 64 channels when the NVR supports 128?
AcuPick is heavy on AI-chip resources — running attribute extraction and image-search against 128 channels simultaneously isn't possible on the current 6-Series silicon. You choose which 64 of the 128 channels run AcuPick (the rest still record, and still get ANPR / SMD Plus / perimeter via camera-side AI on Dahua WizSense or WizMind IPCs).
Why doesn't it have built-in PoE?
The 6-Series is purpose-built for enterprise headend deployments. 128 cameras through built-in PoE ports would mean a 4U+ chassis with extreme power draw. At this scale, sites always have a managed switching layer — pair this NVR with a stack of 24 or 48-port managed PoE+ switches across two or more network closets.
How big a PoE switch stack do I need for 128 cameras?
Allow about 7–15 W per camera for Dahua WizSense bullets/turrets, more for active-deterrence and PTZ cameras. Three 48-port PoE+ switches with ~370–500 W each will run 128 typical cameras comfortably, with spare ports for VoIP and APs. CCTV Guru can quote a complete switch + NVR + camera bundle.
How much storage do I need for 128 cameras at 30 days retention?
For 128 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, expect ~80–110 TB for 30 days. Eight 16 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple Pro, Seagate SkyHawk AI) in RAID 5 gives ~112 TB usable — exactly the right size with single-disk redundancy. For longer retention or higher resolution, add the ESS1504C eSATA expansion tray or use iSCSI to a NAS.
Can it be rack-mounted?
Yes — 2U / 444 mm wide fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (rack ears sold separately). At 6.4 kg empty (without HDDs), plan for ~13–15 kg fully loaded with eight drives. The drawer-style HDD bays support hot-swapping, so you can replace failed drives without unmounting the chassis from the rack.

NVR5432 vs the family — where it sits
The 5432 is the enterprise headend in our Dahua range — twice the channel count of the 5216, twice the HDD bays, twice the network ports, and the only model with a 36-channel split and a 12 V alarm-output feed. The trade-off is the absence of built-in PoE: cameras must be powered through an external switch. Choose the 5216 instead if you want PoE built into the recorder; choose the 5432 (this model) when you're running more than 16 cameras through an existing managed network.

Frequently asked questions
Why doesn't the NVR5432 have built-in PoE?
The 5432 is a headend NVR designed for sites that already run a managed network. Cameras connect through an external PoE switch (Dahua's own PoE switches, or any IEEE 802.3af/at managed switch). This gives you VLAN segregation, redundant network paths and far better scaling than fixed 16-port PoE NVRs. If you'd prefer all-in-one with PoE built into the recorder, choose the 5216-16P-AI/ANZ instead.
How big a PoE switch do I need for 32 cameras?
Allow about 7-15 W per camera for most Dahua WizSense bullets/turrets, more for active-deterrence units and PTZs. A 24-port PoE+ switch with 370–500 W of budget will run 32 typical cameras comfortably; a 48-port managed PoE+ switch is more headroom and gives spare ports for VoIP, APs and APs. CCTV Guru can quote a complete switch + NVR bundle.
What is AcuPick and what do I need for it?
AcuPick is Dahua's next-generation attribute-and-image search — it extracts rich target attributes (clothing, body shape, vehicle make/model/colour/plate, direction) at the camera AND the NVR, then lets you search across all 32 channels by reference image or combined attributes. You need Dahua's AcuPick-ready cameras (typically TiOC PV and 5-Series WizSense Plus IPC families). Standard WizSense cameras still record and recognise faces but the full AcuPick depth requires paired AcuPick IPCs.
What's the dual NIC for?
Two independent Gigabit RJ-45 ports — use them for VLAN segregation (camera VLAN on NIC1, management/uplink VLAN on NIC2), or bond them for active-passive failover (NIC2 takes over if NIC1's switch port dies), or load-balance for combined throughput. Configured from the local GUI or web interface.
How much storage do I need for 32 cameras?
For 32 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, allow ~25-35 TB for 30 days of retention. Four 8 TB or 10 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) covers most use cases with disk-group protection. If on-board capacity isn't enough, iSCSI lets you expand onto network-attached storage or eSATA onto external archive arrays.
Can it be rack-mounted?
Yes — 1.5U / 440 mm wide fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (rack ears sold separately). It can also sit on a desk or shelf if you've allocated cabinet space. At 4.74 kg empty (without HDDs), plan for around 7-8 kg fully loaded with four drives.
What's the 12 V alarm output for?
One of the 6 alarm outputs is a direct 12 V 1 A power feed — drive a siren, strobe light or electric strike directly without needing an external relay or power supply. The other 5 outputs are dry-contact relays you can wire to anything that takes a NO/NC trigger.

What is Smart Dual-Light?The cameras use both IR and warm white light. They run on invisible IR until WizSense AI detects a person or vehicle, then switch to warm light for full-colour footage — colour evidence only when it matters, without lighting the property all night.
Why is this called 3K?6MP (3072 × 2048) sits between 1080p and 4K — commonly marketed as 3K. It gives noticeably more detail than 1080p while keeping storage and bandwidth lower than 4K.
What's the difference between the standard and AcuPick NVR?The standard NVR4108 gives Quick Pick target search. The NVR5208 AcuPick NVR adds full attribute search — find a person or vehicle by colour, clothing and direction across hours of footage in seconds — plus face detection and a second HDD bay.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR ships without storage. For 6 × 6MP on motion-only, ~2 TB gives 1.5–2 weeks, ~4 TB gives 3–4 weeks; choose more for continuous recording. The AcuPick NVR5208 has 2 bays for greater capacity or redundancy.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes. The NVR has 8 PoE ports and you're using 6, so you can add up to 2 more cameras by plugging them into the spare ports — no recorder upgrade needed.

›Weatherproofing: even at IP67, seal outdoor RJ-45 joins with weatherproof tape or a junction box to keep out moisture and salt air.
›Deterrence zones: set AcuSense detection zones on the highest-risk approaches so the strobe and siren trigger on real human/vehicle events only.

Hikvision Camera Quick Start Guide
Does this kit include a hard drive?No — this kit ships without an HDD. Add a surveillance-grade drive from the storage options below the listing; the NVR has dual SATA bays supporting up to 32 TB total (Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple recommended).
What is Live-Guard active deterrence?On AcuSense human/vehicle detection each camera flashes a white-light strobe, sounds a 110 dB warning and lets you open live two-way audio via Hik-Connect — actively turning intruders away.
Do these really see colour at night?Yes — ColorVu 3.0 with an F1.0 super-aperture delivers full-colour images down to 0.0005 lux, with Smart Hybrid Light adding white light or IR as needed.
How are the cameras powered?Each camera runs on a single Cat6 cable to one of the NVR's 8 built-in PoE ports — no separate power supplies. Cat6 cabling is run on site and not included.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes — six cameras on an 8-channel NVR leaves two PoE ports free, so you can add up to two more Hikvision cameras without changing the recorder.

Is this kit really full colour at night?Yes. Smart Dual Light runs IR by default, then switches to a 30 m warm-white LED the moment AI detects a person or vehicle — recording full-colour 4K footage of the event before returning to IR.
Can I turn off the white light at night?Yes. Smart Dual Light has three modes — Smart Dual (IR by default, warm light only on AI detection), full-colour (warm light always on) and IR-only. Set IR mode for discreet black-and-white footage with no visible light.
What's the difference between the two NVR options?The NVR4216 is the standard 16CH AI recorder with Quick Pick. The NVR5216 adds AcuPick attribute search and higher bandwidth. AcuPick only runs on the 5-Series.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR has two SATA bays but ships without storage. For sixteen 8MP cameras we recommend 2 × 16 TB surveillance-grade Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple, available as an add-on.
Is this a complete 16-camera system?Yes — sixteen cameras on a 16-channel NVR with all 16 PoE ports used. Just add hard drives and Cat6 cabling to finish the install.

Retention depends on your cameras. Figures above assume all 10 × 8MP cameras recording continuously in H.265 at ~4 Mbps. Running fewer cameras, a lower resolution/frame rate, or motion/smart-event recording will extend storage time considerably; higher bitrate or RAID 1 mirroring (which halves usable capacity) will reduce it. Estimates are a guide only and vary with scene activity and camera settings.
Installation Notes
›Camera placement: mount cameras 2.5–3 m high, angled down across entries, car parks and perimeters; keep warm-light LEDs clear of walls and eaves to avoid glare.
›Cabling & sealing: run solid-copper Cat6 to each camera and seal outdoor RJ-45 joins with a junction box or weatherproof tape against moisture and salt air.
›NVR & storage: fit surveillance-grade HDDs before first boot, and place the recorder in a cool, dust-free, ventilated spot away from direct sunlight for reliable 24/7 recording.

Do the cameras record in colour at night?Yes. These are OwlView ColorHunter cameras — the 1/1.8″ sensor, F1.0 lens and ColorHunter with Wise-ISP deliver true full-colour 4K video 24/7, with smart warm-light LEDs to 30 m in dark scenes.
Is this kit NDAA compliant?Yes. Both the Uniview UNV OwlView ColorHunter cameras and the NVR502-16B-P16-IQ recorder are NDAA Section 889 compliant, making this kit suitable for government, education and security-sensitive sites in Australia.
How many drives can it hold, and does it support RAID?The NVR has two SATA bays taking up to 16 TB each (32 TB total) and supports RAID 1 mirroring, so critical footage can be written to two drives for redundancy. HDDs are sold separately.
How much recording time will I get?It depends on your cameras and settings. With all 10 × 8MP cameras recording continuously, roughly 16 TB holds about five weeks; switching to motion/smart-event recording or fewer cameras extends that significantly (full table above).
How are the cameras powered?Each camera runs on a single Cat6 cable to one of the NVR's 16 built-in PoE ports (240 W total) — no separate switch or power supplies.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes. The NVR has 16 PoE ports and you're using 10, so you can add up to 6 more cameras by plugging them into the spare ports — no recorder upgrade needed.
What is AcuSearch?AcuSearch is the recorder's -IQ AI review tool. With VCA Search and Search by Image, it lets you filter footage by people, vehicles and attributes, or drop in a reference image to surface matches — so you find events in seconds.
Do the cameras have a microphone?Yes. Each OwlView ColorHunter camera has a built-in microphone so you can capture audio alongside video (check local laws before recording audio).
Can I view it remotely?Yes. Free P2P cloud access through the Uniview UNV app and EZCloud lets you watch live and recorded footage from your phone or computer anywhere.

What's the difference between the standard and AcuPick NVR?The 4-channel NVR4104 and 8-channel NVR4108 give Quick Pick target search. The 8-channel AcuPick NVR5208 adds full attribute search — find a person or vehicle by colour, clothing and direction — plus face detection, 2 HDD bays and room to add cameras.
What is Smart Dual-Light?The cameras use both IR and warm white light. They run on invisible IR until WizSense AI detects a person or vehicle, then switch to warm light for full-colour footage — colour evidence only when it matters, without lighting the property all night.
Why is this called 3K?6MP sits between 1080p and 4K — commonly marketed as 3K. More detail than 1080p, lower storage than 4K.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR has one SATA bay (up to 10 TB) but ships without storage. ~2 TB gives roughly 3 weeks on motion-only for four 6MP cameras.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes — choose an 8-channel NVR (NVR4108 or AcuPick NVR5208) option and it has 4 spare PoE ports, so you can add up to 4 more cameras. The 4-channel NVR4104 option uses all 4 ports.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the NVR1016H come with a hard drive?
No. The NVR1016H supports one SATA hard drive up to 10TB, which must be purchased separately. We recommend a surveillance-grade HDD (e.g., Western Digital Purple or Seagate SkyHawk) for reliable 24/7 operation.
How many days of footage can it store?
With a 10TB hard drive installed and H.265+ compression enabled, the NVR1016H can store approximately 720 days of footage from a single camera at standard settings. Actual storage duration varies based on the number of cameras, resolution, frame rate, and motion activity.
Is it compatible with non-VIGI cameras?
Yes. The NVR1016H supports ONVIF-compliant IP cameras from other manufacturers, allowing integration into mixed-brand installations. Full feature support (e.g., smart detection, two-way audio) is only guaranteed with VIGI cameras.
Can I access footage remotely?
Yes. Download the free VIGI app on iOS or Android to view live feeds, play back recorded footage, and receive event notifications from anywhere with an internet connection.
Does it support PoE to power cameras?
No. The NVR1016H does not have built-in PoE ports. Cameras must be powered separately via a PoE switch or individual power adapters. For an all-in-one PoE NVR solution, consider the VIGI NVR1016H-16P.
What resolution does the HDMI output support?
The HDMI output supports up to 1920×1080p at 60Hz, suitable for connecting to a full HD monitor or TV for on-site live view and playback.

Is this kit really full colour at night?Yes. Smart Dual Light runs IR by default, then switches to a 30 m warm-white LED the moment AI detects a person or vehicle — recording full-colour 4K footage of the event before returning to IR.
Can I turn off the white light at night?Yes. Smart Dual Light has three modes — Smart Dual (IR by default, warm light only on AI detection), full-colour (warm light always on) and IR-only. If you'd rather avoid any visible spotlight, set IR mode and the cameras keep recording clear black-and-white footage at night with no white light at all.
What's the difference between the two NVR options?The NVR4216 is the standard 16CH AI recorder. The NVR5216 adds AcuPick attribute search and higher bandwidth. AcuPick only runs on the 5-Series, so choose the 5216 if fast footage search matters to you.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR has two SATA bays but ships without storage. We recommend a surveillance-grade Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple HDD, available as an add-on above.
How are the cameras powered?Each camera runs on a single Cat6 cable to one of the NVR's 16 built-in PoE ports — no separate power supplies or powerpoints at the camera.
Can I view it on my phone?Yes. Remote live view, playback and AI alerts are free through the Dahua DMSS app on iOS and Android, plus Smart PSS Lite on desktop.

Retention depends on your cameras. Figures above assume all 4 × 8MP cameras recording continuously in H.265 at ~4 Mbps. Running fewer cameras, a lower resolution/frame rate, or motion/smart-event recording will extend storage time considerably; higher bitrate or more cameras added to the spare channels will reduce it. Estimates are a guide only and vary with scene activity and camera settings.
Installation Notes
›Camera placement: mount cameras 2.5–3 m high, angled down across entries, driveways and perimeters; keep IR LEDs clear of walls and eaves to avoid glare and reflection at night.
›Cabling & sealing: run solid-copper Cat6 to each camera and seal outdoor RJ-45 joins with a junction box or weatherproof tape against moisture and salt air.
›NVR & storage: fit a surveillance-grade HDD before first boot, and place the recorder in a cool, dust-free, ventilated spot away from direct sunlight for reliable 24/7 recording.

Do the cameras record in colour at night?These are IR turret cameras — at night they use Smart IR LEDs (up to 30 m) for crisp black-and-white night vision. EasyStar low-light processing still delivers detailed footage at dusk. For full-colour night vision, choose a ColorHunter kit.
Is this kit NDAA compliant?Yes. Both the Uniview UNV IPC3618LE-ADF28K-GM cameras and the NVR501-08B-P8-IQ recorder are NDAA Section 889 compliant, making this kit suitable for government, education and security-sensitive sites in Australia.
Does a hard drive come included?No — the NVR has one SATA bay but ships without storage. We recommend a surveillance-grade Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple HDD. See the retention table above to size your drive to how long you want to keep footage.
How much recording time will I get?It depends on your cameras and settings. With all 4 × 8MP cameras recording continuously, roughly 4 TB holds about 3 weeks; switching to motion/smart-event recording or fewer cameras extends that significantly (full table above).
How are the cameras powered?Each camera runs on a single Cat6 cable to one of the NVR's 8 built-in PoE ports — no separate power supplies or powerpoints at the camera.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes. The NVR has 8 PoE ports and you're using 4, so you can add up to 4 more cameras by plugging them into the spare ports — no recorder upgrade needed.
What is AcuSearch, AcuTrack and SeekFree?They're the recorder's -IQ AI review tools: AcuSearch filters footage by people and vehicles, AcuTrack follows a target across cameras, and SeekFree lets you search recordings by typing what you're after — so you find events in seconds.
Can I view it remotely?Yes. Free P2P cloud access through the Uniview UNV app and EZCloud lets you watch live and recorded footage from your phone or computer anywhere.

Hikvision Camera Quick Start Guide
Does the 4TB drive come pre-installed?Yes — a surveillance-grade Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple HDD ships already fitted and ready to record. A second SATA bay is free for expansion.
What's the difference between the two camera models?The DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL adds Live-Guard strobe + siren and two-way audio for high-risk approaches; the DS-2CD2386G2H-IU is a detail-focused AcuSense DarkFighter camera for general 4K coverage.
What is Live-Guard active deterrence?On AcuSense detection the ColorVu cameras flash a white strobe, sound a 110 dB warning and let you talk down via Hik-Connect — turning intruders away rather than just recording them.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes — the 8-channel NVR has two spare channels and PoE ports, so you can add up to two more Hikvision cameras with no extra hardware.
How are the cameras powered?Each camera runs on a single Cat6 cable to one of the NVR's 8 built-in PoE ports — no separate power supplies. Cat6 cabling is run on site and not included.

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.

Retention depends on your cameras. Figures above assume all 4 × 6MP cameras recording continuously in H.265 at ~4 Mbps. Running fewer cameras, a lower resolution/frame rate, or motion/smart-event recording will extend storage time considerably; higher bitrate or more cameras added to the spare channels will reduce it. Estimates are a guide only and vary with scene activity and camera settings.
Installation Notes
›Camera placement: mount cameras 2.5–3 m high, angled down across entries, driveways and perimeters; keep warm-light LEDs clear of walls and eaves to avoid glare.
›Cabling & sealing: run solid-copper Cat6 to each camera and seal outdoor RJ-45 joins with a junction box or weatherproof tape against moisture and salt air.
›NVR & storage: fit a surveillance-grade HDD before first boot, and place the recorder in a cool, dust-free, ventilated spot away from direct sunlight for reliable 24/7 recording.

Installation Notes
›Cabling: run solid-copper Cat6 from each camera back to the NVR's PoE ports for stable power and video over long distances.
›Weatherproofing: even at IP67, seal outdoor RJ-45 joins with weatherproof tape or a junction box to keep out moisture and salt air.
›Deterrence zones: set AcuSense detection zones on the highest-risk approaches so the strobe and siren trigger on real human/vehicle events only.

Hikvision Camera Quick Start Guide
Does this kit include a hard drive?No — this kit ships without an HDD. Add a surveillance-grade drive from the storage options below the listing; the NVR has dual SATA bays supporting up to 32 TB total (Seagate SkyHawk or WD Purple recommended).
What is Live-Guard active deterrence?On AcuSense human/vehicle detection each camera flashes a white-light strobe, sounds a 110 dB warning and lets you open live two-way audio via Hik-Connect — actively turning intruders away.
Do these really see colour at night?Yes — ColorVu 3.0 with an F1.0 super-aperture delivers full-colour images down to 0.0005 lux, with Smart Hybrid Light adding white light or IR as needed.
How are the cameras powered?Each camera runs on a single Cat6 cable to one of the NVR's 8 built-in PoE ports — no separate power supplies. Cat6 cabling is run on site and not included.
Can I add more cameras later?Yes — six cameras on this 8-channel NVR leaves two PoE ports spare, so you can add two more ColorVu cameras without changing the recorder.
