Technical Specifications

Hikvision DS-7616NI-K2/16P 16-Channel PoE Network Video Recorder

The Hikvision DS-7616NI-K2/16P is a 16-channel network video recorder designed for IP surveillance systems that need centralized recording, built-in PoE connectivity, high-resolution video support, and flexible storage.

With 16 independent PoE interfaces, up to 160 Mbps incoming bandwidth, H.265+ compression, 4K HDMI output, and support for two SATA hard drives, this NVR provides a practical platform for building or expanding a multi-camera security system.

HDMI and VGA can operate as independent outputs, while support for VCA events, compatible camera smart functions, Hik-Connect, and 16-channel synchronous playback makes the recorder suitable for applications where efficient monitoring and video review are important.
