Built for homes and smaller commercial properties that need coverage across multiple areas, this PoE surveillance kit combines six DS-2CD2343G2-I 4MP AcuSense turret cameras with one DS-7608NI-Q2/8P 8-channel network video recorder and an included 2TB hard drive. The system supports centralized local recording for entrances, offices, retail spaces, parking areas, residential exteriors, and other monitored locations.
Each camera provides up to 2688 × 1520 resolution, human and vehicle classification, 120 dB WDR, infrared illumination up to 98 feet, and IP67 weather protection. The recorder provides eight built-in PoE ports, 80 Mbps incoming bandwidth, H.265+ compression, and two unused channels for future compatible camera expansion. Network cables are not included.
