Hikvision DS-7608NXI-K1 8 Channel AcuSense 4K Network Video Recorder with Smart Analytics & H.265+ Compression

The DS-7608NXI-K1 is an 8-channel network video recorder designed for professional, reliable, and uninterrupted IP surveillance. Built for modern multi-camera installations, it suits homes, retail shops, offices, clinics, cafés, warehouses, workshops, apartments, educational environments, and any space requiring clear, high-resolution recording with intelligent detection features.

Supporting up to eight IP cameras, the recorder gives users the flexibility to secure multiple areas—main entrances, parking spaces, corridors, customer areas, storage rooms, loading points, and perimeter spaces. It supports cameras up to 8MP, making it suitable for 4K surveillance setups where detail and clarity are important for identifying events and analysing footage.

As part of Hikvision’s Pro (NXI) lineup, the recorder includes AcuSense technology, enabling smart human and vehicle classification. This reduces unwanted alerts triggered by motion from animals, wind, light changes, or random environmental activity. AcuSense allows security teams and homeowners to focus only on important alerts.

The NVR supports H.265+ compression, significantly reducing storage requirements while maintaining video quality. This is especially useful in installations where continuous recording is necessary, helping users store more days of footage without requiring oversized storage.

With its 4K HDMI output, the DS-7608NXI-K1 improves live-view and playback clarity on compatible displays. Whether analysing evidence, monitoring staff, or reviewing security events, the improved sharpness helps in identifying objects, faces, and movements more precisely.

Thanks to its space-saving 1U design and low heat output, the recorder fits easily into network racks or compact cabinets common in Indian homes and businesses. Installers appreciate its reliability, easy configuration menus, smart playback tools, and straightforward remote-viewing setup.

Key Features

8-Channel IP Camera Support

The DS-7608NXI-K1 supports up to eight IP cameras, making it a strong choice for medium-sized installations. Multiple areas—indoor and outdoor—can be covered without upgrading to a high-channel NVR.

Support for Cameras up to 8MP

The recorder supports cameras up to 8MP resolution, making it ideal for 4K-capable systems where clarity is essential for evidence-quality footage.

AcuSense Technology for Human & Vehicle Detection

AcuSense filters out irrelevant motion and focuses on human and vehicle-based events. This is especially helpful in busy environments where traditional motion detection creates many false alerts.

H.265+ Compression

With H.265+ encoding, the NVR helps save storage while maintaining video quality. This results in longer footage retention and lower hard-drive costs over time.

4K HDMI Output

The recorder supports 4K HDMI output, enabling high-quality live monitoring and playback on UHD displays. This helps in detailed analysis, especially in wide-angle and low-light scenes.
