Product Description
Hikvision IDS-7208HUHI-M1/XT — 8-Channel 8MP DVR, 10TB Fitted
An 8-channel 1U DVR with a 10TB hard drive pre-installed, ready to wire in without a separate drive purchase or fit-out step.
Key specs
- Channels: 8 analogue inputs on a single 1U chassis
- Recording resolution: up to 8MP per channel, so higher-res analogue cameras aren't downscaled at the recorder
- Compression: H.265, cutting storage consumption per hour of footage versus H.264
- Storage: 10TB drive fitted at the factory — no separate purchase or install step needed on site
- Analytics: AcuSense processing on board, distinguishing human/vehicle events from general motion
Why AcuSense matters on install day
AcuSense is Hikvision's onboard analytics engine for separating human and vehicle triggers from general motion. On an 8-channel site that means less time scrubbing through footage flagged by blowing leaves or passing headlights when reviewing an incident.
Fit for purpose
This model suits sites with up to eight analogue camera runs — retail units, offices, workshops or residential communal areas — where 8MP channel support and pre-loaded 10TB capacity remove two of the usual commissioning steps.
Part number for ordering and cross-checking against existing site paperwork: IDS-7208HUHI-M1/XT, supplied here bundled with the 10TB drive as SKU 1xIDS-7208HUHI-M1/XT+10TB.
