Product Description
What it does
The Hikvision DS-7604NXI-K1/4P is a 4-channel network video recorder (NVR) with four built-in PoE ports, meaning it can power and receive video from up to four compatible IP cameras through a single Ethernet cable each — no separate power supplies or network switch needed.
Where it fits
It suits small sites where four cameras is enough: a shop front, a small office, a house, or a single-floor unit. Cabling runs from each camera back to the NVR, keeping the install simple.
Recording and detection
- Decoding capacity: up to 1-ch at 12MP, 2-ch at 8MP, 5-ch at 4MP, or 10-ch at 1080p, with total incoming bandwidth capped at 40 Mbps — so don't assume all four channels can run at maximum resolution at once.
- Compression: H.265+/H.265/H.264+/H.264, which keeps file sizes and bandwidth demand down.
- AcuSense analytics: classifies human and vehicle movement, aiming to cut false alerts from animals, weather or shadows, plus facial capture and smart search to speed up reviewing footage.
Storage and output
One SATA bay takes a hard drive up to 10TB. Video output is via HDMI (up to 4K) or VGA (up to Full HD), which can run simultaneously or independently. A dedicated LAN port sits alongside the four PoE interfaces, and remote viewing works through Hik-Connect or ONVIF-compatible apps.
Before buying, check your camera count won't exceed four and that your chosen drive size and cable runs suit the PoE budget.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many cameras can I connect, and do I need a separate power supply?
Up to four IP cameras, connected directly to the NVR's four built-in PoE ports, which supply both power and data over a single cable each — no extra switch or power adapters needed.
What size hard drive can I fit?
The NVR has one SATA bay supporting a hard drive up to 10TB.
Can all four channels record at full 12MP at the same time?
No — total incoming bandwidth is capped at 40 Mbps, so decoding is flexible (e.g. 1-ch at 12MP or 10-ch at 1080p) rather than four channels simultaneously at maximum resolution.
