Each camera records at up to 3840 × 2160 resolution, helping you capture clearer views of people, vehicles, clothing, and activity around the property.

The F1.0 aperture, high-performance sensor, and integrated white light allow the cameras to produce full-color images around the clock.

This can preserve useful details—such as clothing and vehicle colors—that may be difficult to distinguish in conventional black-and-white nighttime footage.

Deep-learning technology can classify human and vehicle targets during motion, line-crossing, intrusion, region-entrance, and region-exit events.

This helps the system focus on the types of activity that matter instead of treating every movement as equally important.

Would you prefer a camera that only records an intruder—or one that can also activate a visible and audible warning?

The camera’s integrated strobe light and speaker provide active deterrence that can warn an intruder that the property is being monitored.

A built-in microphone and 1.5-watt speaker let you hear activity and communicate through the camera when necessary.

Environmental noise filtering helps improve audio usability in demanding surroundings.

Strong sunlight, shadows, headlights, and backlit entrances can hide important details.

The camera’s 130 dB Wide Dynamic Range balances bright and dark areas so subjects remain more visible in challenging scenes.

The integrated smart white light reaches up to 30 meters, helping illuminate dark entrances, parking areas, walkways, and exterior approaches without a separate illuminator.

The DS-9664NI-M8 accepts up to 64 IP camera channels, making it suitable for larger homes, commercial buildings, warehouses, campuses, and multi-building properties.

You gain room to add coverage as the property or security requirements change.

Up to 400 Mbps of incoming and outgoing bandwidth helps the recorder manage numerous high-resolution camera streams across a larger surveillance system.

Two HDMI and two VGA interfaces support independent main and auxiliary outputs, including resolutions up to 8K or dual 4K.

This gives security personnel greater flexibility when monitoring different camera groups across multiple displays.

The recorder supports eight hot-pluggable SATA drives with capacities up to 16 TB per drive, providing as much as 128 TB of raw internal storage when fully populated.

This allows the storage configuration to be planned around camera count, resolution, recording schedule, and desired retention time.

Support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10, along with N+M hot-spare configurations, provides flexible options for balancing storage capacity, performance, and drive-failure protection.

H.265+ compression can reduce storage requirements by up to 75%, helping you retain more footage without consuming drive capacity as quickly.

Hik-Connect support gives authorized users a convenient way to manage and remotely access the surveillance system through a compatible network connection.

The water- and dust-resistant IP67 construction and metal housing prepare the cameras for exposed locations and operating temperatures from -30°C to 60°C (-22°F to 140°F).

Each camera supports a microSD card of up to 512 GB and Automatic Network Replenishment, providing additional local storage and recovery options when properly configured.

Detected events can trigger recording, image capture, email, surveillance-center notifications, or uploads to a memory card, NAS, or FTP destination.

This creates a more responsive security workflow than relying on passive recording alone.
