Common questions

How many cameras can the DHI-NVR5464-EI2 record?

It has 64 audio and video access channels and supports IP cameras up to 32 MP. Bandwidth is 448 Mbps incoming, recording and outgoing with AI disabled, or 200 Mbps each with AI enabled.

Does the NVR5464-EI2 have PoE ports?

The Dahua datasheet lists no PoE ports for this recorder. It has 2 x RJ-45 network ports (10/100/1000 Mbps), so IP cameras are normally powered through a separate PoE switch.

What does WizSense mean on this recorder?

WizSense is Dahua's AI range, built on an independent AI chip and deep learning algorithms with a focus on human and vehicle detection. Read our WizSense guide for more.

How much storage does it take?

The recorder has 4 SATA ports and each disk can be up to 26 TB. Dahua notes that this limit varies with environment temperature. With 64 channels on four bays, plan drive capacity for your retention period. Pick a surveillance drive from the Hard Drive option on this page, or order the recorder only.

Does 8K HDMI output mean it records 8K?

The datasheet lists 8K (7680 x 4320) as the HDMI output resolution for monitors, and states support for IP cameras up to 32 MP. Recording is limited by the bandwidth figures above.

Which AI features run on the recorder itself?

Face detection and recognition, video metadata, perimeter protection, SMD Plus, AcuPick, WizSeek and Text-Defined Alarm. ANPR, stereo analysis, people counting, heat map and PPE detection are listed as AI by camera, so they need a camera that supports them.

Can it record from non-Dahua IP cameras?

Dahua lists ONVIF 25.12 (Profile T, S, G and M) and third-party camera access for Panasonic, Sony, Axis, Arecont, Pelco, Canon and Hanwha.
