FAQ
How many cameras can be connected to this NVR?
The DS-7608NXI-K2/8P/VPro supports up to 8 IP camera inputs. All 8 channels are served by built-in PoE interfaces, allowing direct plug-and-play connection without the need for a separate PoE switch.
What is AcuSeek and how does it work?
AcuSeek is Hikvision’s AI-powered search technology that enables rapid retrieval of footage based on human or vehicle targets. When connected cameras support Hikvision AcuSense Technology and have AcuSearch enabled, the NVR can model up to 50,000 targets per day across all channels, significantly reducing the time needed to find relevant footage.
What is the maximum recording resolution supported?
The NVR supports recording at up to 12 megapixels (12 MP). It also supports a wide range of lower resolutions including 8 MP, 6 MP, 5 MP, 4 MP, 3 MP, 1080p, 720p, and more.
How many hard drives can be installed, and what is the maximum storage capacity?
The unit features 2 SATA interfaces, each supporting hard drives with up to 16 TB capacity, allowing a maximum total internal storage of 32 TB.
Does this NVR support facial recognition, and what are its limitations?
Yes, the NVR supports facial recognition including face picture comparison, human face capture, and face picture search. It can store up to 16 face picture libraries with a combined total of 50,000 face pictures (each picture up to 1 MB, total capacity up to 800 MB). Face picture comparison supports up to 8 channels, with facial detection and analytics performance supporting 2 channels at up to 4 MP, or 1 channel at 5 MP to 8 MP.
What video output options are available?
The NVR provides independent HDMI and VGA outputs. The HDMI output supports resolutions up to 4K (3840×2160) at 30Hz, while the VGA output supports up to 1080p at 60Hz. Both outputs operate independently, allowing simultaneous display on two monitors.
