§ 01Overview

What the DS-7608NI-I2-8P-NOHDD is

The Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2/8P is an 8-channel 4K network video recorder with 8 PoE ports built in, suited to homes and small businesses across Australia.

Each of the 8 PoE ports (802.3 af/at, up to 120W total) powers and connects a camera over one cable, and the recorder supports resolutions up to 12MP.

HDMI outputs 4K while VGA runs 1080p, and H.265+ compression reduces bandwidth and disk use so footage lasts longer.

Two SATA bays accept drives up to 16TB each, and the unit ships without a hard drive so you can pick the capacity you need.

It works with Hikvision and ONVIF IP cameras.

§ 04Why choose this

Built for the way you actually use the DS-7608NI-I2-8P-NOHDD

Simple PoE wiring

Eight built-in PoE ports power and connect each camera over one Ethernet run, so there is no separate switch or power supply to install for an 8-camera system.

4K and 12MP support

HDMI outputs 4K and the recorder accepts cameras up to 12MP, so it keeps detail even on higher-resolution models.

Storage that lasts

H.265+ compression stretches your recording days, and two bays of up to 16TB each give plenty of room for an 8-camera site.

Pick your own drive

Supplied with no hard drive, so you choose a surveillance-rated drive sized to the retention you want.

Homes and granny flats

Cover doors, driveway and yard with up to 8 cameras on one tidy PoE recorder.
