Description
HiLook Hi Color Pro 8MP 4K 16CH CCTV Kit – 8 × IP Hi Color Cameras + 16CH PoE NVR
The HiLook Hi Color Pro 8MP 4K 16CH CCTV Kit is a professional high-resolution IP surveillance system combining 8 × 8MP / 4K Hi Color network cameras with a 16-channel PoE Network Video Recorder, providing outstanding image detail, intelligent surveillance and substantial capacity for future expansion.
Designed for larger homes, commercial properties, warehouses, offices, workshops and other professional security installations, this kit provides 8MP 4K video surveillance across eight camera locations while retaining another eight NVR channels for future cameras.
The Hi Color camera platform is designed to provide enhanced colour imaging in low-light environments, helping retain useful scene information such as clothing colours, vehicle colours and other visual details that can be difficult to distinguish with conventional black-and-white infrared surveillance.
This CCTV Kit includes:
8 x Hikvision Hilook Pro IPC-T581H-MU 8 MP Hi-Color Fixed Turret Network Camera (White Only)
1 x Hikvision HiLook NVR-216MH-C-16P D series 16CH PoE 4K NVR (No Hard Drive included)

8MP 4K Ultra HD Surveillance
Each camera provides up to:
3840 × 2160 – 8 Megapixel / 4K Resolution
8MP surveillance provides approximately four times the pixel count of conventional 1080p Full HD video.
The additional image detail can be particularly valuable when reviewing:
- People
- Clothing
- Vehicles
- Property Activity
- Entrances
- Driveways
- Car Parks
- Commercial Areas
- Security Incidents
Hi Color Pro Imaging
The Hi Color Pro camera platform is designed for surveillance applications where maintaining useful colour information in low-light environments is important.
Compared with conventional infrared-only cameras that normally change to black-and-white imaging at night, Hi Color technology is designed to make better use of available light and supplementary illumination to retain colour information.
Colour footage can provide valuable additional information when reviewing incidents, including:
- Clothing Colour
- Vehicle Colour
- Object Colour
- Property Details
- Scene Information
Actual night-time colour performance depends on the camera model, available ambient light, installation position and configured supplementary lighting.
Intelligent Human & Vehicle Detection
Compatible HiLook intelligent cameras can distinguish supported targets such as:
- Humans
- Vehicles
This allows the surveillance system to focus more effectively on security-relevant movement.
Compared with basic motion detection, human and vehicle classification can help reduce unnecessary events caused by environmental movement such as:
- Trees
- Leaves
- Rain
- Shadows
- Animals
- Changing Lighting
Professional 16-Channel NVR
The kit includes a 16-channel HiLook Network Video Recorder capable of supporting up to:
16 IP Cameras
With eight cameras included in this package, only half of the available camera channels are initially used.
This leaves:
8 Spare Camera Channels
for future system expansion.
Expand from 8 to 16 Cameras
One of the biggest advantages of this kit is its expansion capability.
Initial System
8 × Cameras Installed
Maximum System
Up to 16 × Compatible IP Cameras
This allows additional cameras to be installed later without replacing the recorder.
Possible future camera locations could include:
- Additional Driveways
- Side Access
- Rear Yard
- Warehouse Areas
- Car Parks
- Entrances
- Internal Areas
- Loading Areas
16 Built-In PoE Interfaces
The compatible 16-channel PoE NVR platform provides:
16 × PoE Camera Interfaces
PoE – Power over Ethernet – allows compatible IP cameras to receive both:
- Power
- Network Data
through a single compatible Ethernet cable.
This simplifies professional CCTV installation and reduces the need for individual camera power supplies.
Simple IP Camera Cabling
A compatible Cat5e or Cat6 cable can carry:
- Camera Power
- Network Data
- Video
- Audio where supported
- Intelligent Event Data
from each camera back to the PoE NVR.
This provides a clean and reliable architecture for professionally installed IP CCTV systems.
Up to 160Mbps Incoming Bandwidth
The HiLook 16-channel NVR platform provides up to:
160Mbps Incoming Bandwidth
This provides substantial network capacity for multi-camera IP CCTV systems.
Actual camera configuration should take into account:
- Resolution
- Frame Rate
- Video Bit Rate
- Compression
- Number of Cameras
- Recording Requirements
H.265+ Video Compression
The NVR supports efficient video compression including:
- H.265+
- H.265
- H.264+
- H.264
H.265+ can substantially reduce storage and network bandwidth requirements compared with older compression technologies, depending on the monitored scene and camera configuration.
This is particularly valuable for systems recording multiple 8MP / 4K cameras.
Selectable Surveillance Storage
The NVR supports internal surveillance hard-drive storage.
HDD: Select storage capacity from available options
The appropriate storage capacity depends on:
- Number of Cameras
- 8MP Recording Resolution
- Frame Rate
- Video Bit Rate
- H.265+ Configuration
- Continuous or Event Recording
- Required Recording Retention
Larger storage capacities are recommended where longer recording retention is required.
Dual HDD Storage
The compatible 16-channel HiLook NVR platform incorporates:
2 × SATA HDD Interfaces
This provides additional storage flexibility compared with single-HDD recorders.
The available HDD configuration should be selected according to the required recording duration and system design.
HDMI & VGA Monitor Outputs
The NVR provides:
- HDMI Output
- VGA Output
allowing connection to compatible monitors or televisions for local CCTV viewing and playback.
This provides convenient access to:
- Live Cameras
- Multi-Camera Display
- Recorded Playback
- Event Search
- NVR Configuration
HiLookVision Remote Access
When connected to the internet and correctly configured, the system can support remote surveillance through the compatible HiLookVision mobile platform.
Depending on camera and system configuration, users can access functions such as:
- Live Camera Viewing
- Recorded Playback
- Event Notifications
- Remote CCTV Monitoring
- Multi-Camera Viewing
An internet connection is required for remote access.
24/7 CCTV Recording
The system can be configured for continuous or event-based recording according to surveillance requirements.
Typical recording options include:
- Continuous Recording
- Scheduled Recording
- Motion-Based Recording
- Event Recording
- Intelligent Event Recording
Recording configuration affects available HDD retention time.
Ideal for Large Homes
With eight cameras included and capacity for another eight, this system is an excellent choice for larger residential properties.
Typical camera locations can include:
- Front Entrance
- Driveway
- Garage
- Side Access
- Rear Yard
- Outdoor Entertainment Area
- Front Boundary
- Rear Boundary
Additional cameras can then be added later as requirements change.

Typical environments include:
- Retail Stores
- Warehouses
- Offices
- Workshops
- Factories
- Commercial Buildings
- Car Parks
- Restaurants
- Storage Facilities
- Small Industrial Sites
Professional IP CCTV Architecture
Unlike older analogue CCTV systems, this package uses network-based IP camera technology.
Advantages can include:
- Higher Image Resolution
- PoE Connectivity
- Easier Network Integration
- Intelligent Camera Functions
- Flexible System Expansion
- Remote Access
- Advanced Recording Options
Why Choose a 16CH NVR with 8 Cameras?
Choosing a 16-channel recorder for an eight-camera installation provides substantial future flexibility.
Instead of purchasing another recorder when additional cameras are required, the existing system can be expanded.
Current Capacity
8 Cameras
Spare Capacity
8 Additional Cameras
Maximum Capacity
16 Cameras
This makes the kit particularly attractive for properties where surveillance requirements may grow over time.
