Dahua 8 Channel CCTV Kit — 8x 6MP AI Cameras, Colour at Night, 2TB HDD, DH-IPC-HDW3667EM-S-IL 2.8mm PoE Turrets + DHI-NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ

Why the Dahua 8 Channel CCTV Kit Is Worth Buying as a Kit

Bought as one kit, the Dahua 8 channel CCTV kit comes with its parts matched: eight channels on the recorder for the eight turrets, a PoE port to power each of them, and a 2TB drive for the recordings. For a home CCTV kit on a bigger block, or a first camera system for a small business, that saves you working out which recorder, cameras and drive belong together.

Each turret needs one Cat6 cable back to the recorder, carrying its video one way and its power the other. At up to 9.5 W per turret, the eight draw up to 76 W between them, which sits inside the recorder’s 78 W of PoE.

What the Cameras See — 6MP Detail and Colour on Detection

Each turret records 6MP, 3288 × 1850 pixels, from a 1/2.7″ CMOS sensor behind a 2.8mm fixed lens at F1.4, with a 110° horizontal and 58° vertical field of view. Those pixels count when you pause a recording from the Dahua 8 channel CCTV kit for a closer look at someone at the shop counter or a figure crossing the back lawn.

After dark, the turrets in the Dahua 8 channel CCTV kit watch by infrared, which reaches up to 30 m and records in black and white. Colour comes on detection: when one of them spots a person or a vehicle, its warm light, with the same 30 m reach, switches on and the clip is recorded in colour, and once the target has gone the light switches off and infrared takes over again.

Strong sun and deep shade in the same picture, such as a bright car park beside a shaded verandah, is the job 120 dB WDR does: it holds detail in both at once. AI SSA tunes the image to rain, fog, backlight, low light and flicker, and 3D noise reduction cuts the grain in a low-light picture.

Hear What Happens — A Built-in Microphone in Each Turret

The turrets in the Dahua 8 channel CCTV kit each carry a built-in microphone, so a recording keeps the sound that went with it: a shout across the car park after closing, a window smashing, a dog barking at midnight. The audio is one-way, picked up at the camera and kept with the video on the recorder.

The Recorder — Dahua DHI-NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ 8-Channel AI PoE NVR With 2TB Drive Supplied

The kit’s recorder, Dahua’s DHI-NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ, is a compact 1U WizSense model that Dahua’s own datasheet pitches at small and medium-sized businesses. Its eight channels and eight PoE ports (IEEE 802.3af/at, up to 25.5 W a port, 78 W across the eight) take the eight turrets one to one.

It takes cameras up to 16MP and up to 256 Mbps of incoming video (180 Mbps with its AI on), records the eight 6MP cameras to the 2TB drive in Smart H.265+, and shows them on a 1, 4, 8 or 9-way split over HDMI (up to 3840 × 2160) or VGA, with up to eight channels in playback at once.

Its own WizSense AI adds SMD Plus, a second filter for human and motor vehicle on four channels, and intrusion and tripwire rules on two. AI Search finds recordings by a target’s attributes or the event type — and Quick Pick, with these AI cameras, pulls the people and vehicles out of SMD event clips.

Alerts Filtered to People and Vehicles — Smart AI Human and Vehicle Detection

When something moves near the granny flat at 3 am, what you want to know is whether it was a person or a car. People and vehicle detection in the Dahua 8 channel CCTV kit starts in each turret: its intrusion and tripwire rules and its SMD 4.0 label a moving target as a person or a vehicle, so alerts can be filtered to the two, and the recorder’s SMD Plus checks again on four channels.

Who This Dahua 8 Channel CCTV Kit Suits

🏠 Families on bigger suburban blocks — with a pool, a double garage, a granny flat or a back lane to keep an eye on, the Dahua 8 channel CCTV kit makes it one system to check from the phone.

🏢 Shops, offices and small practices — the counter, the stockroom and the car park on record, with the footage kept on site on the 2TB drive and a phone to check it from after hours.
