Hospitals, university campuses, multi-site retail groups, transport hubs, and industrial facilities that need centralised control over hundreds of camera feeds will find this server sized appropriately for their workload. Supporting up to 300 channels and up to 128 concurrent remote users, it handles the complexity that comes with large-scale deployments without requiring multiple separate recording systems. The 3U rack-mount form factor integrates into existing server room infrastructure, and compatibility with HikCentral management software means operational teams work within a single interface for live view, recording management, and event response across the entire network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 20px 0 8px 0; padding-bottom: 6px; border-bottom: 3px solid #e8735a;\"\u003eWhat This Server Actually Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 16px; margin: 10px 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1 1 260px; padding: 16px 18px; background: #fff; box-shadow: 0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.08); border-radius: 6px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0; font-weight: 700; font-size: 15px; color: #1a1a2e;\"\u003e300-Channel Management\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0; line-height: 1.65; color: #444; font-size: 14px;\"\u003eHandles up to 300 IP camera channels from a single server unit.

The scalable architecture is a genuine advantage for sites that anticipate growth - adding modules to an existing HikCentral deployment is considerably simpler than migrating to a new platform later. What this package will not do is manage non-Hikvision access hardware or operate as a standalone system without compatible door controllers and readers. It is a software licence only, so hardware must be specified and purchased separately.

For sites already invested in Hikvision access control hardware and the HikCentral management environment, adding doors this way is straightforward. Cardholder data, permissions, and event history already in the system carry through to newly licensed doors, which reduces configuration time on subsequent phases. Where this package will not help is on sites that have not yet deployed the HikCentral Access Control Base Package - this expansion is a dependent add-on, not a standalone solution. It also will not suit environments running third-party access control platforms that are not HikCentral compatible.

For organisations already invested in the HikCentral ecosystem, that consolidation has genuine operational value - fewer interfaces, unified data, and one access control and permissions framework across cameras and fleet. The software update period (SUP) included with the license means the module stays current with platform changes. Where this falls short is that it is entirely dependent on the HikCentral Professional environment and the mobile surveillance base module - it cannot function as a standalone fleet management product. Organisations without an existing HikCentral Professional deployment will need to factor in the full platform cost. It is also not a substitute for purpose-built enterprise telematics platforms where deep ERP integration or complex multi-depot scheduling is required.

For staged projects or sites where camera counts grow by small increments, buying single-channel licenses avoids over-committing budget to unused channel blocks. The activation process is straightforward and integrates with existing HikCentral Lite deployments without platform changes. What this will not do is replace a full VMS platform - HikCentral Lite is an entry-level system, and sites requiring advanced analytics, large multi-site management, or deep third-party integration should evaluate HikCentral Professional instead. This license also has no value as a standalone purchase - it requires an active HikCentral Lite base installation.

The HikCentral ANPR License activates automatic number plate recognition for a single camera channel within an existing HikCentral VSS platform, allowing that channel to capture, log, and act on vehicle plate data in real time. It is purchased as one license per ANPR-enabled camera, so a site with 4 entry and exit lanes requires 4 licenses. Security consultants specifying access-controlled car parks, logistics facilities managing fleet movement, and body corporate managers tracking vehicles at gated residential complexes are the typical buyers. This is not a standalone product - it requires a licensed HikCentral VSS environment already in place before it can be activated and deployed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 20px 0 8px 0; padding-bottom: 6px; border-bottom: 3px solid #e8735a;\"\u003eWhat This License Actually Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 16px; margin: 10px 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1 1 260px; padding: 16px 18px; background: #fff; box-shadow: 0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.08); border-radius: 6px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0; font-weight: 700; font-size: 15px; color: #1a1a2e;\"\u003eActivates Plate Recognition Per Channel\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0; line-height: 1.65; color: #444; font-size: 14px;\"\u003eThis license unlocks ANPR functionality for exactly 1 camera channel within HikCentral VSS.

The per-channel model gives integrators genuine budget control on phased projects, and the integration with HikCentral's allowlist, relay, and alert functions is practical for access-controlled environments. The searchable plate log is straightforward to use at the operator level. What this license will not do is function independently - it has no value without a correctly licensed HikCentral VSS base platform, and the connected camera must be an ANPR-capable model with appropriate lens, IR, and positioning for the vehicle approach speed and lane width of the site. For sites that also need facial recognition or multi-lane free-flow ANPR at high vehicle speeds, a more specialised ANPR server solution may be a better fit.

ANPR cameras are purpose-built with specific focal lengths, exposure control, and IR illumination optimised for plate capture. The license activates the HikCentral platform's plate processing for that channel, but the capture quality originates at the camera.

HikCentral-integrated ANPR is designed for controlled-approach scenarios where vehicles are slowing or stopping at a barrier, intercom, or entry point. Free-flow ANPR at uncontrolled highway or drive-through speeds requires a dedicated ANPR server platform with specialised capture engines and frame analysis that operates outside of a standard VMS license model.

HikCentral VSS with an active ANPR channel license supports blocklist plate configuration that generates real-time operator alerts when a matched plate is captured.

Hikvision publishes server hardware sizing guidelines for HikCentral VSS that account for ANPR channel load. Before activating multiple ANPR licenses, confirm that the server or appliance running your platform meets the recommended specification for the intended channel count - under-spec'd hardware will result in delayed or missed plate reads.

For sites with unpredictable growth schedules, buying single-door licenses as hardware is installed is more manageable than committing to a large-bundle license months before commissioning. The unified management environment also means access control events sit alongside video data in one interface, which is a genuine operational benefit for monitoring teams. What this license will not do is function as a standalone product - it has no value without an active HikCentral Professional base license already in place. It does not include any hardware, reader, or controller. Sites requiring a large number of doors added at once may find a multi-door bundle more cost-effective per door than stacking individual licenses. Available through Security Australia, it suits integrators who need precise, incremental license procurement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 20px 0 8px 0; padding-bottom: 6px; border-bottom: 3px solid #e8735a;\"\u003eBefore You Buy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border-left: 4px solid #e8735a; padding: 12px 16px; margin: 10px 0; background: #fdf8f6;\"\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin: 0; line-height: 1.7;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eActivation Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a software license key product.

The per-panel model is straightforward to quote and scale - add one license per panel, and the platform's alarm management capabilities extend to that device. For sites where alarm event correlation with video footage is operationally important, this integration delivers genuine workflow value by keeping operators in a single interface. What it will not do is function as a standalone alarm management system, operate outside of a HikCentral Professional environment, or replace a dedicated alarm monitoring platform for sites that require graded alarm receiving centre connectivity. It is also not a camera or channel license - it covers alarm panels only. Buyers should confirm their HikCentral Professional base license is current and that their specific alarm panel model is supported before purchasing.

This base license activates the access control module within an existing HikCentral Professional deployment, allowing door controllers, card readers, and access points to be managed, monitored, and reported on from within the same platform already handling video and other security functions. It suits multi-site commercial operations, corporate campuses, government facilities, and education environments where a single-pane-of-glass approach to security management reduces operator overhead and simplifies audit and compliance reporting.

The real strength is unification: access events, video, and alarms in one interface reduces operator switching costs and simplifies incident response. For sites already running HikCentral Professional for video, adding access control here costs significantly less in training and administration than introducing a second software platform. What this will not do is function as a standalone access control system - it requires an active HikCentral Professional server license. It also does not include any door or reader capacity by itself; additional capacity licenses are needed before hardware can be connected and managed. If your site requires a simple, standalone access controller without a broader VMS platform, a different product category would be more appropriate.

The Lite platform is also less administratively demanding than HikCentral Professional, which is appropriate for most small-to-medium commercial applications. Where this will not serve you: if your site requires more than a handful of doors, purchasing individual 1-door licenses becomes less cost-effective than a multi-door bundle - check the full access control software range available through Security Australia for volume options.

This suits environments where knowing how many people enter, exit, or occupy a space at any given time drives operational decisions - think retail floor planning, building capacity compliance, or staffing adjustments during peak periods.

For operators who want basic entry and exit counts plus reportable trend data without standing up a separate analytics platform, this is a straightforward licence activation. The integration with existing HikCentral Lite views and event management is a practical advantage for day-to-day use. That said, this module is not a substitute for enterprise-grade analytics software. It depends entirely on camera-side people counting capability - cameras without the required on-board analytics will not contribute data regardless of the licence being active. Sites needing advanced heatmapping, multi-zone flow analysis, or high-volume retail intelligence should evaluate whether HikCentral Professional or a dedicated analytics platform available through Security Australia would better serve the requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 20px 0 8px 0; padding-bottom: 6px; border-bottom: 3px solid #e8735a;\"\u003eBefore You Buy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border-left: 4px solid #e8735a; padding: 12px 16px; margin: 10px 0; background: #fdf8f6;\"\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin: 0; line-height: 1.7;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility Check:\u003c\/strong\u003e This module requires an active HikCentral Lite base licence and cameras that support people counting at the device level.

For staged rollouts or sites where a single camera needs to be added to a managed recording environment, this is a straightforward and cost-controlled way to do it. There is no wasted licensing capacity and no requirement to jump to a higher bundle tier. What it will not do is function as a standalone product - it requires an existing HikCentral Lite VSS installation and a compatible server environment. It also does not add camera connection or management licenses separately; confirm your HikCentral Lite deployment already holds the appropriate base and connection entitlements before purchasing storage-only channels.

Security managers and integrators working on sites where operators need to locate a specific person or vehicle across hours of recorded footage will understand the value immediately. Rather than scrubbing through timelines manually, operators can filter by attributes - clothing colour, vehicle type, and similar descriptors - and return relevant clips in seconds.

The incremental cost structure suits staged rollouts and budget-conscious deployments. What it will not do is function as a standalone product - this licence has no value without an active HikCentral Professional platform in place.

Rather than exporting raw event logs and building reports manually, this add-on module unlocks business intelligence reporting inside HikCentral Professional - letting security managers, site supervisors, and compliance officers generate formatted data summaries across devices, events, and system activity. It suits multi-site organisations where management needs regular oversight without logging into the VMS directly, and organisations in regulated industries where documented reporting is part of their security governance obligations. If your HikCentral deployment is growing beyond a basic setup and stakeholders are asking for more than live view access, this module addresses that gap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 20px 0 8px 0; padding-bottom: 6px; border-bottom: 3px solid #e8735a;\"\u003eWhat This Module Actually Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 16px; margin: 10px 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1 1 260px; padding: 16px 18px; background: #fff; box-shadow: 0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.08); border-radius: 6px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0; font-weight: 700; font-size: 15px; color: #1a1a2e;\"\u003eBI Reporting Inside HikCentral\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0; line-height: 1.65; color: #444; font-size: 14px;\"\u003eAdds a dedicated business intelligence reporting layer to your existing HikCentral Professional installation.

For multi-site enterprise deployments, compliance-heavy sectors, or any site where management visibility is a documented requirement, this module removes the manual workaround of exporting and formatting data outside the platform. It is available through Security Australia as a licence add-on with no hardware dependency, which makes it straightforward to deploy into an existing HikCentral infrastructure. That said, this module will not add value to a standalone single-site installation where the operator is the same person reviewing the VMS daily - in that context, standard HikCentral reporting tools are sufficient. It is also not a substitute for advanced video analytics or AI-driven event classification; those require separate HikCentral module licences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 20px 0 8px 0; padding-bottom: 6px; border-bottom: 3px solid #e8735a;\"\u003eBefore You Buy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border-left: 4px solid #e8735a; padding: 12px 16px; margin: 10px 0; background: #fdf8f6;\"\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin: 0; line-height: 1.7;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e This module requires an active HikCentral Professional base licence.

For sites growing incrementally, this is a practical alternative to oversized licence bundles. It removes the common problem of purchasing more capacity than current infrastructure justifies. What it will not do is reduce per-channel costs compared to multi-channel licence packages - if you are adding 8 or more channels at once, a larger CNR bundle will generally be more cost-effective than stacking individual 1CH modules. This module also has no function as a standalone product - it requires an active HikCentral Professional base licence. If your platform is a different VMS entirely, this module is not compatible.

Rather than purchasing a new platform or base licence, this module slots into an existing HikCentral Professional installation and extends its decoding output capacity by one unit increment.

That narrow scope is also its strength - organisations that have already committed to the HikCentral Professional platform can extend decoding capacity in exact increments without over-purchasing. It is a cost-controlled, operationally logical way to grow a video wall deployment. What it will not do is function as a standalone product, work with HikCentral Connect or Basic editions, or substitute for a base HikCentral Professional licence if one is not already in place. Buyers needing camera channel licences or other HikCentral add-on modules should note those are separate licence types.

The 5-unit base license is a practical entry point - it provides the full Pro-tier feature set from day one and scales via additional unit licenses without requiring a platform migration. The centralised management, role-based access, and event handling are genuinely useful for sites where multiple users or remote access are part of the brief. Where it has limits: HikCentral Professional is primarily optimised for Hikvision hardware. Integration with third-party cameras or non-Hikvision devices may require ONVIF compatibility checks on a per-device basis, and functionality can vary. It is also a software-only product - server hardware or a suitable host machine is a separate requirement not included in this license.

HikCentral Professional supports ONVIF-compatible third-party devices, but the depth of integration - including AI features, event handling, and configuration options - is optimised for Hikvision hardware. Basic live view and recording may function with ONVIF cameras, but advanced platform features are not guaranteed for non-Hikvision devices. Confirm compatibility for specific third-party models before committing to the platform.\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin: 12px 0;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0 0 4px 0;\"\u003eWhat does \"5 encoding units\" actually mean in practice?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    Each encoding unit corresponds to one connected video source - typically one IP camera channel or one encoder channel. A 5-unit license allows you to connect and manage up to 5 cameras or encoding channels within the HikCentral Professional platform. If you are connecting an NVR with 4 cameras, that counts as 4 units. NVR devices themselves may count as management entities separately depending on platform version - confirm with your supplier.\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin: 12px 0;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0 0 4px 0;\"\u003eCan I expand beyond 5 channels later without reinstalling the software?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    Yes. HikCentral Professional is designed for incremental expansion via additional unit licenses applied to the same platform installation. You add channels by purchasing and activating further unit licenses - the software environment, user configurations, and device settings are retained. This makes the 5-unit base a practical starting point for sites expected to grow, provided the server hardware is sized for the anticipated final channel count.\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin: 12px 0;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0 0 4px 0;\"\u003eWill this license run on any PC or does it need dedicated server hardware?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    HikCentral Professional requires a Windows machine that meets Hikvision's minimum hardware specifications for the channel count and stream load being managed. For a 5-channel deployment, a capable business-grade PC or small server is typically sufficient, but Hikvision publishes specific CPU, RAM, and storage requirements that must be confirmed before installation. The software license does not include any hardware - a suitable host machine is a separate requirement. Security Australia stocks compatible NVR and server hardware for HikCentral deployments.\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin: 12px 0;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0 0 4px 0;\"\u003eDoes HikCentral Professional require ongoing subscription payments?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    The base license is a perpetual software license for the platform functionality at the time of purchase. Access to major version upgrades and certain cloud-connected features may require maintenance or subscription arrangements depending on Hikvision's current licensing terms. Confirm the license terms with your supplier at the time of purchase, as software licensing conditions are subject to change by the manufacturer.\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin: 12px 0;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0 0 4px 0;\"\u003eHow does this differ from using a standard Hikvision NVR interface?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    A standard NVR provides device-level management - you access cameras through that recorder's interface only. HikCentral Professional is a dedicated VMS platform that aggregates multiple recorders and cameras under one interface, adds role-based user management, centralised event handling, and supports remote access through the platform rather than per-device login.

For sites already on HikCentral Professional, the workflow benefit is genuine - one interface, one set of cardholder records, one audit trail. The 50-floor capacity covers most mid-rise commercial or residential towers and can be extended by adding further packages where needed. What this licence will not do is operate as a standalone lift management system - it requires an active HikCentral Professional base licence and compatible Hikvision elevator controllers already in place. Sites using third-party access control platforms or non-Hikvision lift controllers will not benefit from this package.

The HikCentral Elevator Control Module is a software licence add-on for HikCentral Professional that extends the platform's access control capability to include elevator floor-level permissions. It is designed for system integrators and IT-security managers working on multi-storey commercial buildings, hotels, residential towers, and mixed-use developments where floor-by-floor access restrictions are required. Rather than running a standalone elevator controller application, this module brings elevator management into HikCentral's unified interface - allowing operators to assign which floors specific cardholders or user groups can access, with the same event logging and audit trail used for door access across the site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 20px 0 8px 0; padding-bottom: 6px; border-bottom: 3px solid #e8735a;\"\u003eWhat This Module Actually Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 16px; margin: 10px 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1 1 260px; padding: 16px 18px; background: #fff; box-shadow: 0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.08); border-radius: 6px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0; font-weight: 700; font-size: 15px; color: #1a1a2e;\"\u003eElevator Floor-Level Access Control\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0; line-height: 1.65; color: #444; font-size: 14px;\"\u003eEnables HikCentral Professional to manage which floors individual cardholders or user groups can reach via the elevator.

This is not a standalone product - it is designed for operations that have already standardised on HikCentral Professional and need a clean, supported path to bring additional cameras, access control points, or video channels under the same management umbrella.

For sites already running HikCentral Professional at the Inclusive tier, this is the most straightforward way to increase device capacity while keeping everything under one management interface. It is particularly well-suited to staged commercial projects where the infrastructure is built incrementally. What this module will not do is add feature tiers beyond what the Inclusive license package covers - if a site needs advanced analytics, specialised access control features, or capabilities that sit in a higher HikCentral Professional tier, a different license type is the better fit.

It suits system integrators and IT managers scaling out public address, alarm audio, or pre-recorded announcement functions across facilities such as warehouses, car parks, retail centres, or campuses - anywhere the HikCentral platform is already deployed and audio output needs to be brought under centralised management.

For sites already committed to the HikCentral ecosystem, this is a clean and straightforward way to maintain a single management interface across intercom, cameras, and access control. The per-unit model gives budget flexibility for staged rollouts and avoids over-licensing on smaller sites. What this license will not do is function independently - it has no value without an active, appropriately licensed HikCentral Professional server in place. It also does not add indoor station or video intercom client licenses; those require separate entitlements. Buyers working through a mixed-brand environment or who have not yet established a HikCentral Professional base platform should confirm overall system licensing requirements before purchasing individual add-on units.

You are not locked into purchasing a fixed channel bundle when your requirement is a single additional unit. For organisations that grow their HikCentral deployments incrementally, this is a practical way to keep licensing aligned with actual device counts. It suits renewal scenarios equally well, allowing administrators to renew coverage on a unit-by-unit basis rather than in fixed blocks. What this license does not do is replace the need for base HikCentral Professional software - it operates within an existing, activated HikCentral environment. If you are starting a HikCentral deployment from scratch, a base license package is required before adding per-unit service licenses.

Integrators specifying HikCentral Professional for enterprise, multi-site, or government deployments should factor this renewal into their total cost of ownership from the outset, particularly where clients require up-to-date cybersecurity patches and compatibility with newer Hikvision device firmware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 20px 0 8px 0; padding-bottom: 6px; border-bottom: 3px solid #e8735a;\"\u003eWhat This License Actually Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 16px; margin: 10px 0 18px 0;\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1 1 260px; padding: 16px 18px; background: #fff; box-shadow: 0 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.08); border-radius: 6px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0; font-weight: 700; font-size: 15px; color: #1a1a2e;\"\u003eSoftware Update Entitlement\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin: 0; line-height: 1.65; color: #444; font-size: 14px;\"\u003eKeeps the HikCentral Professional installation eligible to receive new software version releases during the service period.

What this module will not do is function as a standalone video wall controller - it has a hard dependency on HikCentral Professional being licensed and operational. It is also not a display hardware solution; the physical wall, decoders, and cabling are separate considerations.

For integrators who have been burned by driver conflicts or OS compatibility issues on DIY builds, the pre-configured appliance model is a genuine time-saver. The 300-channel ceiling covers a large proportion of mid-enterprise deployments without requiring a second server. What this appliance will not do is stretch beyond its licensed channel count - if your project is already at 280 channels and growing fast, plan for a second server or a higher-tier licence before commissioning. It is also primarily optimised for Hikvision devices; third-party ONVIF cameras can connect, but advanced AI feature integration is Hikvision-native.

It suits medium to large sites: multi-building commercial properties, education campuses, healthcare facilities, and industrial premises where a single operator console needs to span dozens of cameras without deploying separate standalone recorders at each location.

The hardware dongle approach is genuinely useful for enterprise procurement environments and for sites that cannot depend on internet-based licence activation. The 64-channel starting point covers most mid-size commercial and institutional deployments without requiring immediate additional licensing. Where this product does not apply: it is not a standalone recorder and does not store video on its own - separate storage infrastructure is required. It is also primarily aligned to Hikvision device ecosystems; integrators working with mixed-brand camera deployments should verify third-party ONVIF compatibility before specifying.

The HikCentral VSS 1CH Face and Body add-on activates face detection and body detection capabilities for a single video channel inside the HikCentral Professional platform, allowing system integrators and IT security managers to expand analytics coverage incrementally rather than purchasing bulk channel blocks. It suits corporate campuses, aged care facilities, retail environments, and government buildings that have already deployed HikCentral Professional and need to add targeted AI analytics to specific cameras - reception points, entry corridors, car park pedestrian gates, or controlled access zones - without redeploying the entire platform.

The face and body detection functions integrate directly into HikCentral's existing alarm and search workflows, which keeps platform management straightforward. This licence is available through Security Australia as a single-channel add-on. What it will not do is function as a standalone product - a valid HikCentral Professional base licence and a compatible AI-capable camera are both prerequisites. It also does not cover face recognition, ANPR, or perimeter analytics; those require separate licence types.
