§ 01Overview
What the DS-7608NXI-I2-8P-VPRO is
The Hikvision DS-7608NXI-I2/8P/VPRO is an 8-channel AI network video recorder with PoE built in and Hikvision's V-PRO analytics, made for Australian sites that want smart search without a large back-end recorder.
Two dedicated AI engines split the work: one handles face pictures and AcuSearch image search, the other runs AcuSeek natural-language search, so you can find a person or vehicle by description across recorded footage. It supports face recognition (16 libraries, 50,000 images), ANPR and people counting with compatible cameras, and records up to 32MP.
Eight 802.3 af/at PoE ports power and connect cameras over one cable each, HDMI outputs 4K, and two SATA bays accept drives up to 20TB. This unit is supplied without a hard drive, so you choose the capacity to suit your retention.

§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DS-7608NXI-I2-8P-VPRO
Two engines, faster results
One AI engine handles faces and AcuSearch image search while the other runs AcuSeek text search, so the two run in parallel rather than competing.
PoE built in
Eight 802.3 af/at PoE ports power and connect each camera over one cable, so an 8-camera AI system needs no separate switch.
Pick your own drive
The recorder ships without a hard drive, so you fit surveillance-rated storage sized to your retention period, up to 20TB per bay.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Retail loss prevention
Find a described shopper or staff member across the day's footage to investigate theft or disputes quickly.
Small business and offices
Add face and behaviour search to an 8-camera site without moving to a large rack NVR.
Car parks and forecourts
Pair with ANPR cameras to log plates and search vehicle movements.
Schools and clinics
Use natural-language search to review incidents at entries, corridors and reception.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
In the box
DS-7608NXI-I2/8P/VPRO recorder, power adaptor, mouse and network cable. Hard drive is not included and must be added separately.
Connecting cameras
Plug up to 8 cameras into the built-in PoE ports for power and data; the NVR can add them automatically over the network.
AcuSeek and AcuSearch
Search works best with Hikvision AcuSense cameras, which let the recorder model up to 300,000 targets per day for image and text search.
Adding a drive
Fit one or two surveillance-rated SATA drives (up to 20TB each), then start recording from the setup menu.
§ 08Questions
Frequently asked about the DS-7608NXI-I2-8P-VPRO
Q.01
Does the DS-7608NXI-I2/8P/VPRO include a hard drive?
No. This unit is supplied with no hard drive. Add one or two surveillance-rated SATA drives of up to 20TB each.
Q.02
What does V-PRO add over a standard NVR?
V-PRO uses two AI engines for AcuSeek text search and AcuSearch image search, so you can find people or vehicles by description rather than only by motion.
Q.03
Do I need AcuSense cameras?
The recorder runs AI itself, but AcuSeek and AcuSearch work best with Hikvision AcuSense cameras, which let it model up to 300,000 targets per day.
Q.04
How many PoE ports does it have?
It has 8 built-in PoE ports (802.3 af/at), so each camera connects over one cable.
Q.05
What resolution cameras does it support?
Up to 8 cameras at resolutions up to 32MP.
Q.06
Can it recognise faces and licence plates?
Yes. It supports face recognition across 16 libraries (50,000 images), plus ANPR with compatible cameras.
Q.07
What is AcuSeek in simple terms?
A search tool that finds footage from a typed description, like a person in a blue shirt, across your recordings.
Q.08
Does it output 4K?
Yes. HDMI outputs 4K and VGA runs 1080p for a local monitor.
Buying from Smarket
Is your Hikvision, Dahua, HiLook and TP-Link VIGI stock genuine Australian stock?
Yes, 100%. Every Hikvision, Dahua, HiLook and TP-Link VIGI product we sell is a genuine Australian-market model sourced through Australian supply chains — never grey imports. That means factory-sealed units, Australian-region firmware that works with the official apps out of the box, and a full 3-year local warranty.
How long does delivery take?

How much is shipping?
Standard shipping is free on all orders over $300 AUD, Australia-wide. Orders under $300 ship at a flat rate of $25, calculated at checkout. Tracking is included on every order.
What warranty do you offer?
All cameras, NVRs and DVRs come with a 3-year back-to-base manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law. Hard drives and accessories are covered as set out in our Warranty Policy.
What is your return policy?
You have 30 days from the day you receive your order to request a change-of-mind return. Items must be unopened, factory-sealed and in resalable condition. A 15% restocking fee applies and return postage is at your cost. Faulty or incorrectly supplied items are different: we cover the return shipping and refund or replace at no charge. Read the full Return & Refund Policy.
Do you offer installation?
We can connect you with licensed installers in Sydney and Melbourne. Installation typically starts from around $200 per camera depending on cable runs and site conditions. Email sales@smarket.com.au with your address and camera count for a quote.
§ 10Bundles
Recommended packages
Add a surveillance drive
The recorder ships with no hard drive; fit a 2TB drive, 6TB drive or 8TB drive sized to your retention period.
Best with AcuSense cameras
Pair with Hikvision AcuSense IP cameras so AcuSeek and AcuSearch can model targets for description-based search.
Standard 8-channel NVR
Do not need AI search? The DS-7608NI-I2/8P is a straightforward 8-channel PoE recorder.
