§ 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.

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.
