Hikvision DS-7608NI-Q2/8P-4TB 8-channel Nvr Poe 4TB

Product Description

The HIKVISION DS-7608NI-Q2/8P-4TB is an 8-channel network video recorder (NVR) built for IP camera surveillance systems. It ships with 4TB of installed storage and supports two SATA drive bays, allowing capacity expansion without replacing the unit. The integrated 8-port PoE switch powers compatible IP cameras directly from the recorder, eliminating the need for separate injectors or switches. An HDMI output connects to a monitor for local live view and playback. This unit is installed by security integrators, low-voltage technicians, and commercial or residential surveillance contractors.

This NVR is suited for small-to-mid-size installations requiring a compact, self-contained recording solution. The built-in PoE ports simplify wiring runs by carrying both data and power over a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable to each camera location. With two SATA bays, technicians can add a second drive for expanded retention or configure redundant storage depending on system requirements. The HDMI output supports direct connection to a display for on-site monitoring without a separate workstation.

Installation Notes

This unit is typically installed by licensed low-voltage or security systems technicians. Power down all connected cameras and disconnect the network before servicing internal drives or connections. Follow local codes governing low-voltage and data cabling, including applicable NEC articles for Class 2 wiring. Do not exceed the total PoE power budget across all active ports simultaneously.
