Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2/8P (D) 8-Channel PoE 4K Network Video Recorder
The Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2/8P (D) is an 8-channel network video recorder designed for dependable, high-resolution IP surveillance. Eight built-in PoE ports simplify installation by carrying power and data to compatible cameras through the same network cables.
With support for camera resolutions up to 32 MP, 4K HDMI output, two HDD bays and H.265+ compression, this NVR provides detailed evidence while helping reduce storage requirements. Independent HDMI and VGA outputs, smart-event support and remote access make it a practical foundation for professional residential and commercial security systems.
