Who is the DVR-216U-M1/T for?

The top 16-channel coax recorder in the HiLook range: AcuSense person/vehicle filtering, audio over coax with two-way talk on LTS cameras, up to 5MP per channel with H.265+, 4K HDMI output, and TVI/AHD/CVI/analogue on every input with IP cameras on top. It is for a larger coax site — a shop floor and stockroom, a school, a hotel, a unit with a yard — that wants smart alerts and audio across up to 16 cameras without re-cabling to IP. Also controls HiLook coax PTZs such as the PTZ-T4225I-D. For 8 cameras, the DVR-208U-M1/T; without AcuSense, the DVR-216G-M1/T; for 32 cameras, the DVR-232Q-M2.

What to add

• Surveillance-grade hard drive(s) — 6–8TB total for 16 cameras; we fit and format to order.
• Coax cameras plus RG59 cable and 12V PSUs — the DVR does not power cameras.
• A network cable to your router for the free HiLookVision or Hik-Connect app; a 4K monitor for the control point.

Frequently asked questions

Does AcuSense work on all 16 channels?

Person/vehicle analysis runs on a number of channels simultaneously — check the datasheet for the count and assign it to the cameras where alerts matter most.

Which cameras give audio?

HiLook "-MS" (mic) and "-LTS" (mic and speaker) models over coax.

Can I mix old analogue cameras in?

Yes — each channel auto-detects the type.
