Dahua DHI-NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ — 8-Channel 4K WizSense AI NVR with 8 PoE+ Ports

The Dahua DHI-NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ is a compact 8-channel WizSense AI Network Video Recorder designed for reliable IP camera recording, intelligent surveillance and simplified PoE installation. With 8 built-in PoE ports, compatible cameras can be connected directly to the NVR for both network connectivity and power, making it an ideal solution for residential, commercial and small-business CCTV systems.

Supporting IP cameras with resolutions of up to 16MP, the NVR provides high-resolution recording and advanced decoding capabilities. It supports Smart H.265+, H.265, Smart H.264+, H.264 and MJPEG, helping optimise bandwidth and storage requirements while maintaining image quality.

Built-in AI processing provides advanced security features including face detection, face recognition, perimeter protection and SMD Plus. The recorder supports 1-channel face detection and recognition, 2-channel perimeter protection and 4-channel SMD Plus, helping distinguish people and vehicles from unwanted movement and reduce false alarms.

The NVR also works with compatible AI cameras to provide additional intelligent functions including ANPR, people counting, stereo analysis and heat map, allowing the surveillance system to be expanded with advanced camera-based analytics.

With 256 Mbps incoming, recording and outgoing bandwidth when AI is disabled, support for up to 8 channels of recording, HDMI and VGA video outputs, multi-channel playback and a single SATA interface supporting up to 20TB, the DHI-NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ provides a flexible foundation for an 8-camera security system.

Product Specifications

AI & Intelligent Surveillance

The DHI-NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ provides intelligent video analytics directly through the recorder as well as through supported AI cameras.

Face Detection & Recognition

The recorder supports face detection and face recognition, with the ability to identify and analyse face attributes including:

• Gender

• Age group

• Glasses

• Expressions

• Face mask

• Beard

The NVR supports up to 10 face databases containing 20,000 face images, with a total capacity of 2.5GB. Additional information including name, gender, birthday, address, credential type, credential number, country/region and state can be associated with face images.

Perimeter Protection

The built-in AI supports 2 channels of perimeter protection, with up to 10 IVS rules per channel. Compatible cameras can also provide perimeter protection across all 8 channels, with performance of up to 8 targets per second.

Perimeter functions can help monitor restricted areas and detect events such as intrusion and tripwire activity.

SMD Plus

SMD Plus provides intelligent filtering for human and motor vehicle targets. The recorder supports 4 channels of SMD Plus, helping reduce false alarms caused by common environmental movement such as leaves, rain and changes in lighting conditions.

Compatible cameras can provide SMD functionality across all channels, supporting up to 16 targets per second.

Recording & Playback

The NVR supports recording across all 8 channels and provides multiple playback options for quickly reviewing security footage.

Supported recording modes include:

• General recording

• Motion detection

• Intelligent recording

• Alarm recording

Playback options include:

• Instant playback

• General playback

• Event playback

• Tag playback

• Smart playback

Up to 8 channels can be played back simultaneously, while recordings can be backed up using USB devices or over the network.

Video & Display

The recorder supports resolutions from standard-definition formats through to 16MP, allowing it to accommodate a wide range of Dahua IP cameras.

Supported resolutions include:

16MP, 12MP, 8MP, 6MP, 5MP, 4MP, 3MP, 1080p, 960p, 720p, D1 and CIF.
