Who is the DVR-204G-M1/T for?

The 4-channel HD-TVI recorder we recommend for a small coax system with HiLook’s ColorVu Lite or mic cameras: audio over coax records sound from each "-MS" camera and enables two-way talk with the LTS models, all over the existing RG59. It records 1080p to 4MP/5MP Lite per channel with H.265+, accepts TVI, AHD, CVI and analogue on any input, and adds IP cameras over the network. Pair it with the THC-T129-MS for a colour-at-night, with-sound system for a house or shop. For a smaller case, the DVR-104G-M1/T; for 8 cameras, the DVR-208G-M1/T; for AcuSense filtering, the U-series.

What to add

• A surveillance-grade hard drive — 1–2TB for four cameras; we fit and format to order.
• Coax cameras plus RG59 cable and a 12V PSU — the DVR does not power cameras.
• A network cable to your router for the free HiLookVision or Hik-Connect app.

Frequently asked questions

Does it record 5MP?

Up to 5MP Lite (reduced frame rate) on 5MP cameras, and full frame rate at 1080p — fine for security recording.

Which cameras give audio?

HiLook "-MS" (mic) and "-LTS" (mic and speaker) models over coax; other cameras via the standard audio input.

Will it work with my old cameras?

Yes — CVBS, TVI, AHD and CVI auto-detect per channel.
