§ 01Overview
What the DS-2CD2386G2-IU is
This Hikvision 8MP 4K CCTV kit is a complete, ready-to-record package built around eight DS-2CD2386G2-IU AcuSense turret cameras and a 16-channel DS-7616NI-M2/16P PoE NVR with a 4TB surveillance hard drive already installed.
It suits larger homes and commercial sites that want sharp 4K coverage with room to expand.
Each camera records 8MP 4K detail on a 1/1.8-inch sensor, with AcuSense deep-learning classification that focuses motion alerts on people and vehicles instead of every passing shadow or insect.
Powered-by-DarkFighter low-light technology and 120 dB true WDR keep the image clear in glare and after dark, EXIR infrared reaches up to 30 m at night, and a built-in microphone captures audio alongside the video.
The IP67-rated turret housing is built for outdoor use in Australian conditions.
The DS-7616NI-M2/16P recorder powers and connects every camera over a single network cable through its 16 plug-and-play PoE ports, records efficiently with H.265+ to stretch the included 4TB of storage, and outputs to a monitor at up to 8K via HDMI.
With 16 channels you can add up to eight more cameras as your needs grow.

§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DS-2CD2386G2-IU
Fewer false alarms with AcuSense
Deep-learning classification focuses alerts and recording on people and vehicles, so you are not woken by shadows, rain or passing animals.
Clear day and night
Powered-by-DarkFighter low-light technology, 120 dB WDR and EXIR infrared to 30 m keep the picture usable in glare, backlight and total darkness.
Room to grow
A 16-channel NVR with a 4TB drive installed runs eight cameras now and takes up to eight more later without a new recorder.
Simple single-cable install
Plug-and-play PoE powers and connects each camera over one network cable, which keeps wiring and fault-finding straightforward.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Large homes and acreage
Eight 4K cameras cover the house, sheds, gates and driveway, with the spare channels ready for more as the property changes.
Retail and hospitality
Sharp 4K detail over entries, tills and floor areas, with AcuSense alerts on people movement after hours.
Warehouses and yards
Cover loading docks, perimeters and storage areas, with night vision to 30 m and weatherproof turrets for outdoor mounting.
Small to medium business
A scalable 16-channel system that starts at eight cameras and grows with the site, all viewable remotely on Hik-Connect.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
What's in the kit
Eight DS-2CD2386G2-IU 8MP turret cameras, one DS-7616NI-M2/16P 16-channel PoE NVR with a 4TB HDD installed, plus the NVR power supply and mouse. Network cable and a monitor are not included.
Installation requirements
Run Cat5e or Cat6 cable from the NVR's PoE ports to each camera (keep runs within about 100 m). Mount the turrets where you need coverage, connect the NVR to a monitor via HDMI and to your router for remote access, then add it to the Hik-Connect app. Cable joins at outdoor cameras are best housed in a matching Hikvision junction box. Professional installation is recommended for cabling and mounting.
