Hikvision DS-7616NI-I2/16P(C) 16-Channel 4K PoE Network Video Recorder

The Hikvision DS-7616NI-I2/16P(C) is a 16-channel 1U network video recorder designed for IP surveillance systems that need high-resolution recording, integrated PoE connectivity, and flexible video output.

With 16 built-in PoE ports, the NVR can connect and power compatible IP cameras directly, helping simplify system installation and network infrastructure. It supports cameras up to 12 MP, up to 160 Mbps incoming bandwidth, 16-channel synchronous playback, and HDMI output at resolutions up to 4K.

Two SATA interfaces support up to two hard drives with capacities of up to 16 TB each, providing substantial storage potential for continuous video recording. Support for specialized cameras, advanced streaming technology, dual-stream recording, and up to eight IP speakers makes the recorder suitable for a wide range of surveillance environments.
