8 Channel CCTV DVR: Hybrid 4K PoC Recorders for Installers

8-Channel DVRs

This range covers 8-channel recorders for jobs needing eight camera inputs from a single unit, spanning both hybrid DVRs and PoE NVRs.

What's in the range

• Hybrid DVRs (ANNKE, Dahua) — accept analogue/HD-TVI/AHD/CVI cameras via BNC, with several also supporting a small number of additional IP channels for mixed-camera sites.
• PoE NVRs — IP-only, with built-in PoE ports for direct camera power and data over a single cable, no BNC inputs.
• Resolution support across the range spans 2MP through to 8MP/4K and 8K-class recording, depending on model.
• Compression is H.265 or H.265+ throughout, reducing storage and bandwidth versus older H.264 units.
• Human/vehicle detection features appear on select ANNKE models for reduced false alerts.

How to choose

• Existing analogue cabling on site? Pick a hybrid DVR with BNC inputs.
• New-build or IP-camera estate? Pick a PoE NVR for single-cable power and data.
• Mixed estate? Choose a hybrid DVR with spare IP channels.
• Detection needs? Confirm human/vehicle detection is listed for that specific model.
• Match maximum recording resolution to your camera specification before ordering.
