Hikvision DS-7604NI-M1/4P 4-Channel 4K PoE Network Video Recorder with 4TB Surveillance HDD
The Hikvision DS-7604NI-M1/4P is a professional 4-channel M-Series Network Video Recorder (NVR) featuring four integrated PoE camera ports, high-resolution IP camera recording, advanced H.265+ video compression, independent HDMI and VGA display outputs, and an included 4TB surveillance hard drive.
Designed for professional residential and small commercial CCTV installations, this Hikvision NVR provides reliable network video recording, convenient PoE camera connectivity and flexible local and remote surveillance management.
The recorder supports up to four compatible IP security cameras, with four built-in Power over Ethernet (PoE) interfaces allowing compatible cameras to connect directly to the NVR without requiring a separate PoE switch.
Each PoE interface supports compatible IEEE 802.3af/at devices, with a combined 60W PoE power budget for connected cameras.
The DS-7604NI-M1/4P supports compatible IP camera recording resolutions up to 32MP, subject to available incoming bandwidth, camera compatibility and supported recording configurations.
With up to 40 Mbps incoming bandwidth and 80 Mbps outgoing bandwidth, the recorder provides network recording and transmission capacity for professionally configured four-camera surveillance systems.
Its advanced decoding performance supports up to four 8MP camera streams at 30fps, allowing smooth multi-camera monitoring when suitable camera streams and configurations are used.
Although commonly described as a 4K CCTV NVR, this M-Series model also supports 8K HDMI output at up to 7680 × 4320 at 30Hz, providing additional display flexibility with compatible monitors.
The recorder supports 4K HDMI output at 30Hz, along with 2K and Full HD display resolutions. Independent HDMI and VGA outputs allow compatible local surveillance displays to operate separately.
For efficient video recording, the DS-7604NI-M1/4P supports H.265+, H.265, H.264+ and H.264 compression formats, helping reduce storage requirements and optimise network bandwidth when supported by the connected cameras.
The included 4TB surveillance HDD provides recording storage for continuous, scheduled and event-triggered CCTV surveillance. Actual recording retention depends on camera resolution, frame rate, bitrate, compression settings and recording schedule.
The recorder features one internal SATA interface, supporting a compatible surveillance hard drive with a manufacturer-specified maximum capacity of 16TB.
Additional features include four-channel synchronous playback, dual-stream recording, compatible intelligent camera event integration, network-based remote monitoring, alarm input/output connections and USB video backup.
The DS-7604NI-M1/4P can be used with compatible Hikvision ColorVu, AcuSense and other professional IP cameras. Camera-based intelligent analytics depend on the connected camera model, firmware and supported recorder integration.
Combining four recording channels, four integrated PoE ports, 60W PoE power, 40 Mbps incoming bandwidth, 8K-capable HDMI output, H.265+ compression and an included 4TB surveillance HDD, the Hikvision DS-7604NI-M1/4P offers a capable recording solution for professional four-camera CCTV installations.
Three-year recorder warranty applies subject to terms. The included surveillance HDD carries its applicable separate warranty.
