§ 01Overview
What the DS-2CD2386G2-I is
This Hikvision 8 MP 4-channel kit is a complete four-camera system for a home or small business, supplied ready to record.
It brings together four DS-2CD2386G2-I AcuSense turret cameras and a four-channel DS-7604NI-I1/4P NVR with four built-in PoE ports — no hard drive included (add one below to enable recording) — so each camera connects on a single network cable and the recorder is set up to capture all four channels from the start.
The cameras are the heart of the kit.
Each is an 8 MP (4K) turret with AcuSense deep learning, which classifies human and vehicle targets so the system alerts on people and cars rather than on rain, shadows or animals, cutting down false alarms and making recordings easier to search.
A 120 dB wide dynamic range keeps detail against bright backlight, and a 30 metre EXIR infrared range covers the scene at night.
These are -I model cameras, which keeps the kit focused on high-quality video and AI detection; they do not include a built-in microphone, so the system records video without audio.
A couple of honest notes so the kit is set up well.
The cameras use Powered-by-DarkFighter low-light imaging, which means clean detail in dark conditions, but at night the image is infrared black and white, not full colour, so this is not a 24/7 ColorVu kit.
The four-channel NVR has four PoE ports, which the four cameras fill, so to add more cameras later you would move to a larger recorder and a PoE switch.
No hard drive is included — add one below to enable recording; a 4 TB drive gives generous everyday retention, and 8K HDMI output and H.265+ compression keep the picture sharp and the storage efficient.

§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DS-2CD2386G2-I
Fewer false alarms
AcuSense human and vehicle classification means alerts and searches focus on people and cars, not on weather or animals.
4K detail that lasts
8 MP resolution with 120 dB WDR captures clear, identifiable detail, and H.265+ keeps your chosen drive going further.
Tough outdoor cameras
IP67 metal turrets with 30 metre infrared suit driveways, yards and entrances in Australian conditions.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Family homes
Cover the front, back and sides of a house with four 4K cameras and people and vehicle alerts.
Small businesses
Watch a shopfront, car park and entry with a tidy four-channel system and easy event search.
Driveways and yards
Infrared night coverage of approaches and gates, alerting on people and vehicles.
Holiday and rental properties
A self-contained kit for remote viewing of an unattended property on the mobile app.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
In the box
Four DS-2CD2386G2-I turret cameras, the DS-7604NI-I1/4P NVR (no HDD included — add a hard drive to enable recording), power supply and mounting accessories. A monitor is connected for local viewing.
Cabling
Run one network cable from each camera back to a PoE port on the NVR. Standard Ethernet runs apply, and a PoE switch can extend reach if a camera is far from the recorder.
Mounting
Fix each turret to a wall or eave covering an entrance, driveway or open area, within the 30 metre infrared range, and aim using the three-axis turret movement.
Setup
Connect the NVR to a screen and the network, add the cameras (plug-and-play on the PoE ports), set the AcuSense human and vehicle rules and recording schedule, and set up remote viewing in the Hik-Connect app.

§ 09Bundles
Recommended packages
Expand or replace a camera
Add or swap a matching DS-2CD2386G2-I 8MP AcuSense turret. The four-channel NVR has four PoE ports, so to run more than four cameras add a larger recorder and a PoE switch.
Add storage
No HDD is included — fit an 8TB surveillance hard drive or a 10TB surveillance hard drive rated for continuous recording.
Add PoE reach
Use an NS-0109P-60 8-port PoE switch to place cameras further from the recorder or to grow the system.
