01Overview
What the NVR1004H-4P is
The TP-Link VIGI NVR1004H-4P is a 4-channel PoE+ network video recorder — the compact, lower-cost sibling of the 8-channel NVR1008H. Its four built-in PoE+ ports connect and power up to four IP cameras over a single cable each, with no separate adapters to wire. It is plug-and-play with VIGI cameras and records to a SATA hard drive, which is not included (a separate 2 TB version comes with a drive pre-fitted).
Channels / PoE: 4 channels and 4 PoE+ ports (802.3af/at), 53 W total and up to 30 W per port.
Bandwidth: 80 Mbps incoming — enough for four 4 MP cameras at once; mix in 8 MP and you may need to trim their bitrate.
Output / playback: 4K (3840×2160) over HDMI plus simultaneous VGA, with 4-channel synchronous playback.
Storage: one SATA bay for a drive up to 10 TB — the hard drive is not included.
It records H.265+/H.264+ to save space, with smart alarms (motion, line-crossing, intrusion, human and vehicle) driven by the cameras, two-way audio, and remote viewing through the VIGI app, web UI and VIGI Security Manager. It is ONVIF (Profile S), so it works with most third-party IP cameras, though plug-and-play setup and the full smart features are best with VIGI cameras. This is an indoor desktop recorder.
