§ 01Overview
What the DHI-NVR5864-AI/ANZ is
The Dahua DHI-NVR5864-AI/ANZ is an enterprise-class 64-channel WizSense AI recorder in a 2U chassis, built for large Australian commercial, industrial and public-safety installations.
It accepts up to 64 IP cameras (over the network, not built-in PoE) at resolutions up to 32MP, with up to 384 Mbps of bandwidth when AI is off and 200 Mbps with AI features running.
Eight SATA HDD bays with RAID 0/1/5/6/10 give you both high capacity and the redundancy a critical site needs, so a single drive failure does not cost you footage.
The recorder runs Dahua's WizSense AI on board: face detection and recognition, perimeter protection (tripwire and intrusion) and SMD Plus to separate people and vehicles from irrelevant motion, plus AcuPick / Quick Pick smart search that lets an operator find a person or vehicle across recordings quickly when used with compatible WizSense cameras.
It carries ANZ firmware for local compliance, outputs to dual HDMI and dual VGA for a multi-screen control room, and supports third-party cameras over ONVIF.
Note that this is an enterprise recorder supplied without hard drives and without built-in PoE — cameras connect through your network switches, and you add surveillance drives to suit your retention and RAID plan.
It is genuine Australian Dahua stock with local warranty and support.

Serious channel count and bandwidth
64 channels and up to 384 Mbps handle a large camera estate, with support for high-resolution cameras up to 32MP.
AI that speeds investigations
Face recognition, perimeter protection, SMD Plus and AcuPick smart search help operators find events and targets fast instead of scrubbing hours of video.
Built for control rooms
Dual HDMI and dual VGA with 4K display and ANZ firmware suit a manned monitoring position on a commercial or public-safety site.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Large commercial and industrial sites
Centralise dozens of cameras across a factory, warehouse or campus on one redundant recorder.
Public safety and government
Run face and perimeter analytics with RAID-protected storage for sites that need reliable retention and fast search.
Multi-building campuses
Aggregate cameras from many switches and buildings into a single 64-channel control-room recorder.
High-retention installations
Fill eight bays with high-capacity drives for long retention under a RAID 5 or 6 plan.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
What's in the box
One DHI-NVR5864-AI/ANZ 2U recorder, power lead and mouse. Hard drives, network switches, cameras and monitors are not included.
Installation requirements
Rack the 2U chassis, fit surveillance-grade SATA drives and configure your RAID level, then connect cameras through managed PoE switches on the network (the recorder has no built-in PoE). Connect monitors over HDMI/VGA and the network for remote access, and plan camera bitrates against the AI-on bandwidth limit. A UPS is strongly recommended on an enterprise recorder. Professional installation and commissioning are recommended.
