Who is the NVR-104H-D/4P for?

Our default recommendation for any system of up to four IP cameras. It has four built-in PoE ports — plug a HiLook or Hikvision camera in and it is powered, found and recording within a minute — and it records 4K (8MP) per channel, so it will never be the bottleneck whether you fit 2MP cameras today or 8MP ones later. A single SATA bay takes a surveillance drive; H.265+ compression stretches that drive to weeks of footage. Pair it with the IPC-T249HAA-LU ColorVu 3.0 cameras for a typical house or shop system. Need 5–8 cameras? The NVR-108H-D/8P. On a tight budget with 2MP/4MP cameras only, the NVR-104MH-D/4P saves a little but is capped at 4MP.

What to add

• A surveillance-grade hard drive — 2TB suits four 4MP cameras for 3–4 weeks of continuous recording; choose one from the options and we fit and format it.
• Cat5e/Cat6 cable to each camera, up to 100m per run.
• A network cable to your router for the free HiLookVision or Hik-Connect app; an HDMI monitor for setup.

Frequently asked questions

Can I add a fifth camera later?

No — four channels is the limit. If you might grow, buy the 8-channel model now.

Does it power the cameras?

Yes, each PoE port powers a standard HiLook camera over the network cable. PTZs may need PoE+ or local power.

Does it work with non-HiLook cameras?

ONVIF cameras can be added; plug-and-play and full features are guaranteed with HiLook and Hikvision.
