Dahua DH-XVR5216AN-4KL-I3-16P — 16 Channel 4K PoC Penta-brid WizSense AI XVR CCTV DVR
The Dahua DH-XVR5216AN-4KL-I3-16P is a 16 channel Penta-brid WizSense recorder in a 1U desktop case with two hard drive bays. Every analogue channel can power HDCVI PoC AT and AF cameras over the coax, which suits upgrades where existing coax is reused and there is no power at the camera position.
The 16 BNC inputs auto-detect HDCVI, AHD, TVI and CVBS, and HDCVI cameras are accepted up to 4K. Up to 32 IP cameras of up to 8MP can be added (16 IP channels by default plus 16 converted analogue channels), with 128 Mbps of incoming bandwidth. The first and ninth channels record up to 4K at 15fps or 5MP at 25fps, and the other channels at lower frame rates.
On-recorder AI covers 16-channel SMD Plus, 8-channel perimeter protection, 2-channel face recognition and 2-channel QuickPick 2.0. Each SATA bay takes a disk up to 16TB, and video goes out over HDMI up to 3840 x 2160, VGA and CVBS. It runs from 100-240V AC mains.
Also listed as XVR5216AN-4KL-I3-16P.

Works with
- Dahua DHI-ARB1606 RS485 alarm box, listed by Dahua as an optional accessory.
- Surveillance hard drives for the SATA bays, such as the WD Purple 1TB, WD Purple 4TB or Toshiba S300 2TB. The Hard Drive option on this page also offers a recorder-only choice. Choose a WD Purple or Toshiba S300 drive there to buy it as a DVR with hard drive.
- Dahua DH-HAC-HFW1509TMP-IL-A-POC-0280B-S2 5MP PoC Bullet Camera: a 5MP Smart Dual Light HDCVI bullet in the PoC version, so it can take its power from this recorder over the coax
- Western Digital WD Purple WD82PURZ 8TB Surveillance Hard Drive: a surveillance drive for one of the two SATA bays, each of which takes up to 16TB
Pairings are suggested on general compatibility (same brand, matching connection type and specification), not as tested combinations.
Common questions
What does PoC mean on this recorder?
PoC is Power over Coax. It sends power over the same coax cable as the video, which Dahua says simplifies HDCVI installation and reduces installation time and labour. All channels support PoC AT and PoC AF cameras. A balun can be connected for UTP transmission when the PoC function is disabled. See our guide to Dahua HDCVI cameras.
Which cameras can I connect?
This CCTV recorder takes HDCVI, AHD, TVI and CVBS cameras on the 16 BNC channels, plus IP cameras: up to 32 IP channels in total (16 by default plus 16 converted analogue channels), each up to 8MP. Our guide to Dahua Penta-brid recorders explains the five formats.
Is there a version without PoC?
Yes. DH-XVR5216AN-4KL-I3 is listed separately. Dahua's datasheet for that model does not list PoC.
Which AI functions run on the recorder?
SMD Plus, perimeter protection, face recognition, QuickPick 2.0, EPTZ and privacy protection run on the recorder itself. Dahua notes face recognition conflicts with SMD Plus and perimeter protection, and that once IP extension is enabled, several of these functions cannot be used. See our guide to Dahua WizSense.
How much storage can I fit?
Two SATA ports, each up to 16TB. Dahua notes the maximum capacity varies with environment temperature.
What video outputs does it have?
One HDMI output (up to 3840 × 2160), one VGA output and one CVBS output.
Can it record sound from the cameras?
Yes. Dahua lists 16 BNC coaxial audio inputs plus one RCA audio input, and one RCA audio output. Two-way talk shares the audio input of the first channel.
Can I view it on my phone?
Dahua lists mobile phone access for iOS and Android, and P2P is among its network protocols, so the recorder can be viewed remotely from a phone app.
Does it support third-party cameras?
Dahua lists third-party camera access for Panasonic, Sony, Hanwha, Axis, Arecont and ONVIF devices, with ONVIF 24.06 (Profile T, S and G).
