Product Description
4-channel 1080p 1U DVR with H.265 compression and a 4TB hard drive pre-installed — the DS-7204HGHI is specced for straight-in installs on small jobs where drive fitting isn't wanted as a separate step.
Key specs
- 4 channels — one input per camera; plan camera count against this before quoting a job
- 1080p recording resolution
- H.265 compression, which keeps footage files smaller than H.264 for the same recording time
- 1U chassis form factor
- 4TB hard drive — supplied already installed in the unit
Fit for the job
Four channels suits sites where camera count is fixed and small: a shop counter with till, entrance, stockroom and rear exit covered, or a residential job with front, rear and side doors. The pre-installed 4TB drive means the unit arrives ready to wire to cameras and a monitor — no separate drive purchase, no opening the case to fit one before commissioning.
Ordering note
This listing (SKU 1xDS-7204HGHI-M1+4TB) bundles the DVR and drive as one unit — check the SKU matches what's specified before ordering, since drive capacity is fixed to what's listed here.
