HiLook Hikvision 8MP 4K AcuSense CCTV Kit – 8x Turret IPC-T381H-MU + 8CH PoE NVR (NVR-108MH-C/8P)
This HiLook 8MP 4K kit pairs eight IPC-T381H-MU Dual IR AcuSense turret cameras with an 8-channel PoE NVR — full eight-camera 4K coverage for a home or small business in one purchase. Each 8MP camera records fine detail by day and 30 metre infrared at night in black and white, using dual infrared illuminators for even coverage, with built-in dual microphones for clearer audio and AcuSense human and vehicle detection. The 8-port PoE recorder powers all eight cameras over a single cable each.

§ 01Overview
What the IPC-T381H-MU is
This HiLook 8MP kit gives full eight-camera 4K coverage on an 8-channel recorder — a sensible size for a home with several approaches or a small business that wants sharp evidence across a floor and a yard.
Eight IPC-T381H-MU turret cameras run from a HiLook NVR-108MH-C/8P, which has eight built-in PoE ports, so each camera connects over a single network cable that carries power and data.
At 8MP (3840 × 2160) the T381H captures the fine detail that makes faces, clothing and number plates usable as evidence.
Its dual infrared illuminators give even 30 metre night coverage, recording in black and white, and 120 dB true WDR balances bright and dark areas in the same frame.
A built-in arrayed dual microphone captures clearer audio than a single-mic camera, and AcuSense classifies people and vehicles so the system can alert you only on what matters.
The IP67 metal housings suit outdoor use and H.265+ keeps the eight 4K streams efficient.
Two honest notes.
The recorder ships without a hard drive, and 4K across eight cameras fills storage quickly — add a surveillance-grade drive sized to your retention; a 6TB drive is a sensible choice and the NVR takes a single drive up to 8TB.
And this kit uses all eight channels, so it is fully loaded; to add more cameras, or to keep more days of 4K footage on two drives, the same eight cameras on a 16-channel recorder is the one to compare.
The T381H records in black and white at night; for full colour at night look at the T383H Pro or T269 cameras.
The cameras have a built-in microphone that records sound, but no speaker, so there is no two-way talk-back; and they have no red-and-blue strobe or siren.
If you want talk-back and active deterrence, the HiLook T269 and T289 all-in-one camera kits are the ones to look at.
This is genuine HiLook stock with a local 3-year warranty and support.

§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the IPC-T381H-MU
Even night coverage
Dual infrared illuminators light the scene more evenly out to 30 metres in black and white.
Clearer audio
A built-in arrayed dual microphone captures better audio than a single-mic camera, recorded with the video.
Fewer false alerts
AcuSense human and vehicle classification keeps notifications about people and cars, not animals or weather.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Family homes
Cover the front, drive, garage, yard and sides in sharp 4K with relevant alerts.
Small business
Watch entries, floors and stock areas in evidence-quality 4K with AcuSense filtering.
Yards and workshops
High-detail 4K coverage of open areas and gates on one recorder.
Whole-of-house 4K
Eight cameras handle most homes' approaches and perimeter in 4K on one recorder.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
What's in the box
Eight IPC-T381H-MU 8MP cameras, one NVR-108MH-C/8P recorder and mounting accessories with guides. A hard drive, network cables and a monitor are supplied separately.
Installation requirements
Mount the eight cameras across the site, run one network cable from each to the NVR's PoE ports, and fit a 6TB or larger surveillance drive before recording. Set up in the HiLookVision app or on a monitor, enable AcuSense rules, and test each view and the night mode before relying on it.

§ 09Bundles
Recommended packages
Add a hard drive to record
This NVR ships without a hard drive, so add a surveillance-grade 2TB drive or 6TB drive sized to how long you want to keep footage; for eight cameras recording continuously a 6TB drive suits 4K retention, and the recorder takes a single drive up to 8TB.
Want spare channels and two drives
Compare the 8-camera T381H 16CH kit, which runs the same eight cameras on a 16-channel recorder with two HDD bays.
Need fewer cameras
Compare the 4-camera T381H kit for a smaller start.
Want colour at night or deterrence
The 8-camera T383H Pro kit adds Smart Hybrid Light colour, and the 6-camera T289 4K deterrence kit adds strobe and talk-back.
