AUD $1,393.93
Eight 8MP cameras on one HiLook Pro recorder, and the eighth can flash, warn and talk back. This HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit pairs seven IPC-T381H-MU turrets, each listening through a dual microphone, with one IPC-T289H-MU/SL strobe turret whose speaker lets you answer, and the HiLook Pro NVR-108MH-K/8P runs the eight. Storage is your call: the recorder’s one SATA bay takes a surveillance drive up to 16 TB, one you already own or one you add to the same order.
Where the HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit earns its keep:
📹 Room to Enlarge a Paused Clip — eight cameras recording 8MP (3840 × 2160) through a 108° lens, so a paused clip has pixels to spare when you enlarge it
🚨 Flash a Strobe and Sound a Warning — the IPC-T289H-MU/SL is the strobe camera of the eight: when its alarm triggers, a strobe light flashes and an audible warning sounds
🗣️ Talk Back Through Camera Eight — two-way audio on the IPC-T289H-MU/SL: its 2 W speaker and dual microphone let you speak from the HiLookVision app; the seven IPC-T381H-MU turrets hear only, their microphones storing the audio in each clip (one-way audio)
🎯 Tell a Visitor on Foot From a Car Pulling In — person and vehicle detection by deep learning in each of the eight cameras; line crossing, intrusion and motion alerts are yours to filter by people, by vehicles or by both
🌙 Keeps Watching Once the Lights Go Out — the seven turrets switch to 850 nm infrared out to 30 m and keep recording in black and white at 0 lux; the strobe turret carries IR and white light, each up to 30 m
🔌 One Network Cable to Each Camera — a PoE kit: the recorder’s eight PoE ports send power and pick up video over one Cat6 run per camera, plug and play, so each camera draws its power over the same cable as its picture
🖥️ Live View on a Monitor, Playback on Your Phone — the HiLook Pro NVR-108MH-K/8P at the centre of the HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit sends a 4K picture over HDMI to a monitor or TV, with VGA alongside; on your phone, the HiLookVision app shows the cameras live, plays back the recordings and sends alerts
🌧️ Metal Housings Built for Rain, Dust and Heat — IP67 metal bodies on the eight cameras, the seven turrets rated -30 °C to 60 °C
🛡️ Authorised HiLook Stock From Our Own Warehouses — Authorised Australian Product backed by the manufacturer’s warranty, sent from our Melbourne and Sydney warehouses

Why the HiLook 8 Channel CCTV Kit Is Worth Buying as a Kit
Buying the HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit puts eight cameras and the recorder made for them on one order: seven IPC-T381H-MU 8MP turret cameras, one IPC-T289H-MU/SL strobe turret with two-way talk and the HiLook Pro NVR-108MH-K/8P. That makes it an 8 camera 4K CCTV kit matched from the box: each camera takes one of the recorder’s eight channels and one of its eight PoE ports, an 8MP CCTV kit from a single brand.
Eight cameras suit a property with a lot going on: a home on a corner block with a long driveway, a two-storey house with a granny flat out the back, a small shop with a rear lane. With our HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit, seven turrets watch and listen, and the eighth can answer a caller, flash its strobe and sound a warning. The eight cameras fill the recorder’s eight channels and eight PoE ports, one cable each.
What the Cameras See — Eight 8MP Pictures You Can Crop Into
Each of the HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit’s eight cameras records 8MP (3840 × 2160) on a 1/2.8-inch sensor behind a fixed 2.8 mm F1.6 lens that spans 108 degrees across. At 4K the seven IPC-T381H-MU turrets run 20 fps on Australia’s 50 Hz mains (25 fps at 3200 × 1800 and below), and the extra pixels let you enlarge a paused clip to check a face, a jacket or the colour of a ute.
When the light goes, the seven IPC-T381H-MU turrets turn on their 850 nm IR, managed by smart supplement light, and reach out to 30 m in black and white down to 0 lux. The IPC-T289H-MU/SL carries both IR and white light, each up to 30 m. 120 dB true WDR, BLC and HLC even out glare and shadow in one frame, headlights after dark included.
The eight cameras sit in IP67 metal housings, and the seven turrets are rated from -30 °C to 60 °C. Each camera has a microSD slot up to 512 GB for a copy kept on the camera (card sold separately), and the seven turrets support ONVIF Profile S and G.
Hear What Happens — Seven Turrets That Listen, One Camera That Talks Back
On the HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit, the seven IPC-T381H-MU turrets each carry an arrayed dual microphone with environment noise filtering, recording voices and sounds with the picture: one-way audio, listen only. The IPC-T289H-MU/SL is the two-way audio camera of the set and its strobe light camera: a 2 W speaker beside its microphone lets you talk to a courier or a stranger through the HiLookVision app, and when its alarm triggers it flashes its strobe light and plays an audible warning.
The Recorder — HiLook Pro NVR-108MH-K/8P Powers and Records the Eight
The HiLook Pro NVR-108MH-K/8P that runs the HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit has eight IP channels and eight PoE ports (IEEE 802.3af/at, plug and play), so one Cat6 run carries each camera’s power and video, and the eight cameras fill both. It records up to 12MP, handles 80 Mbps in and out, and offers H.265+ compression, which effectively reduces the storage space by up to 75%. HDMI at 4K (3840 × 2160) and VGA run independently, so this 4K security camera system can feed two screens at once, and you can replay eight cameras side by side or find a moment with smart search. No HDD is included: the recorder’s one SATA bay takes the surveillance drive you choose, and the HiLookVision app puts the live picture, the recordings and the alerts in your pocket.
Smart AI — Person and Vehicle Detection in Each Camera
Human and vehicle classification based on deep learning runs inside each of the HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit’s eight cameras. The seven turrets apply it to line crossing, intrusion and motion detection, and the strobe turret to its motion, line crossing and intrusion alarms, so each alert can be limited to people, to vehicles or to both. Motion Detection 2.0 takes that classification from the cameras on each channel, and the HiLook Pro recorder adds facial recognition of its own: 16 face libraries holding up to 20,000 pictures, with facial detection on one channel at 8MP.
Who This HiLook 8 Channel CCTV Kit Suits
🏠 Bigger households that want a camera with a voice — eight cameras for a two-storey home or a corner block: seven with microphones on the recording, plus one that flashes a warning and lets you answer a visitor through the app
🏢 Shops, cafés and small offices trading late — seven turrets on the HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit keep picture and sound from the day’s trading, an eighth carries a strobe and a speaker for a late caller, and the footage lives on a drive you own
🔧 Installers quoting an eight-camera job with a talk-back point — eight matched HiLook cameras and the HiLook Pro recorder on one order, one Cat6 run per camera, Australian stock, sold with no hard drive so the drive size goes on your quote

HiLook 8 Channel CCTV Kit — Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does each camera in this HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit get its power?
A: From the HiLook Pro NVR-108MH-K/8P itself: a single Cat6 run links each camera to one of the recorder’s eight PoE ports, and that one run delivers both the power and the picture.
Q: Which of the eight cameras can I talk through?
A: The IPC-T289H-MU/SL, whose 2 W speaker and arrayed dual microphone give two-way audio from the HiLookVision app. The seven IPC-T381H-MU turrets are microphone-only, keeping what they hear in the recording for you to listen back to: one-way audio.
Q: Is a hard drive part of this HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit?
A: No. This HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit has one drive bay taking a single surveillance-grade disk up to 16 TB, and no HDD is included — choose a capacity to match how long the recorder should keep footage, then add it to the same order.
Q: Which phone app runs the eight cameras of the HiLook 8 channel CCTV kit?
A: The HiLookVision app, through which you watch the eight cameras live, scroll back through the HiLook Pro NVR-108MH-K/8P’s recordings, get alerts and speak through the strobe turret.
Q: When does the eighth camera flash its strobe?
A: When one of its alarms triggers on motion, line crossing or intrusion, which can be set to people and vehicles; the linkage flashes the strobe light and plays an audible warning.
Q: How far do the cameras see at night?
A: The seven turrets switch to 850 nm infrared out to 30 m and record in black and white, while the strobe turret carries IR and white light, each up to 30 m.
