Professional 16 Channel 4K CCTV Recorder with 16 PoE Ports and Dual Hard Drive Bays

BRAND NEW | 16 CHANNELS | 16 PoE PORTS | 8MP 4K SUPPORT | NO HARD DRIVE INCLUDED

The HiLook by Hikvision NVR-216MH-C/16P is a professional 16-channel Network Video Recorder (NVR) designed for high-resolution IP CCTV security systems.

Featuring 16 built-in Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports, support for compatible 8MP 4K Ultra HD IP cameras, 160Mbps incoming bandwidth, H.265+ video compression and two internal SATA hard drive bays, this recorder is suitable for residential, commercial and business surveillance installations.

With integrated PoE technology, compatible IP cameras can receive both power and network connectivity through a single Ethernet cable, simplifying CCTV installation.

IMPORTANT: This recorder is supplied without a hard drive. A compatible surveillance HDD must be installed to enable normal local video recording and playback. Security cameras are not included.

16 Built-In PoE Ports – Simplified CCTV Installation

The HiLook NVR-216MH-C/16P features 16 independent RJ45 PoE camera ports, allowing compatible IP security cameras to connect directly to the recorder.

PoE technology delivers both power and data through a single Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for separate power adapters for most compatible cameras.

The recorder supports IEEE 802.3af/at PoE standards with a total PoE power budget of up to 150 watts.

The combined power requirements of connected cameras must remain within the recorder's available PoE power budget.

8MP 4K Ultra HD Camera Recording

The recorder supports compatible IP security cameras with resolutions up to 8 megapixels (3840 × 2160).

It is suitable for a wide range of compatible HiLook and Hikvision cameras, including 2MP, 4MP, 5MP, 6MP and 8MP models.

High-resolution recording provides additional image detail when reviewing entrances, vehicles, retail areas, offices, warehouses and other monitored locations.

Please Note: The recorder's supported camera recording resolution is different from its simultaneous decoding capacity. This model supports up to one 8MP stream or five 1080p streams for decoding, depending on the hardware revision and configuration.

H.265+ Video Compression

The HiLook NVR-216MH-C/16P supports:

  • H.265+

  • H.265

  • H.264+

  • H.264

H.265+ video compression can significantly reduce storage consumption compared with older compression methods when used with compatible cameras.

This helps maximise the recording capacity of an installed surveillance hard drive.

Dual SATA Hard Drive Bays – Choose Your Own Storage

The NVR-216MH-C/16P is supplied without a hard drive, allowing customers to select the storage capacity that best suits their installation.

The recorder features two internal SATA hard drive bays, with support for compatible drives up to 8TB each.

Storage Specifications:

  • 2 × SATA hard drive interfaces

  • Up to 8TB supported per drive

  • Up to 16TB total storage capacity

  • Compatible surveillance hard drives recommended

  • Continuous, scheduled and event-based recording options

For reliable 24/7 recording, we recommend surveillance-rated hard drives designed for CCTV applications.

Recording retention depends on the number of cameras, resolution, frame rate, compression settings, bitrate and recording schedule.

4K HDMI and VGA Monitor Outputs

The recorder includes HDMI and VGA video outputs for connection to compatible monitors and televisions.

The HDMI output supports resolutions up to 3840 × 2160 at 30Hz, allowing high-resolution viewing on a compatible 4K display.

Multi-camera viewing and simultaneous playback capabilities depend on camera resolutions and the recorder's decoding limits.

Smart Motion Detection and Video Analytics

The HiLook NVR-216MH-C/16P supports compatible motion detection and Video Content Analytics (VCA) functions.

Depending on the connected cameras and recorder firmware, supported features may include:

  • Motion detection

  • Line-crossing events

  • Intrusion detection

  • Smart event searching

  • Event-based recording and notifications

Advanced analytics, including human and vehicle classification, depend on the exact recorder hardware revision and compatible cameras.

Remote Viewing and Playback

When connected to a suitable network and configured with supported software, the recorder allows remote CCTV monitoring from compatible mobile devices and computers.

Functions can include:

  • Live camera viewing

  • Recorded video playback

  • Event searches

  • Motion notifications

  • Remote recorder management

Internet access and appropriate configuration are required for remote viewing.
