6MP Hikvision CCTV Kit: 4 x BLACK Outdoor Turret Cameras with Acusense + 4CH NVR

Model: 4x DS-2CD2366G2-IU (Black) / DS-7604NI-I1-4P

Who This Is For

Property managers specifying a complete outdoor camera system who want AcuSense AI filtering without the hassle of sourcing cameras and a recorder separately will find this kit covers the job in a single order. The bundle pairs 4 Hikvision DS-2CD2366G2-IU 6MP AcuSense turret cameras in black finish with the DS-7604NI-I1-4P 4-channel PoE NVR - a recorder with 4 built-in PoE ports, meaning each camera needs only a single Cat5e or Cat6 run back to the NVR. The cameras' deep-learning engine classifies targets as human or vehicle and ignores animals, foliage, and passing headlights, so after-hours alerts stay actionable rather than noise. At 6MP resolution and a 105.1-degree field of view on the 2.8mm lens, each camera covers broad entry zones, driveways, or car parks with enough detail for recognition at up to 15.7 metres. The black housing suits modern residential and commercial facades where a standard white dome would stand out.

What This Kit Actually Does

Who Buys This Model

• Residential installers on new builds or renovations: The black turret housing suits modern dark fascias and architectural exteriors where standard white domes are refused by builders or owners. Single-cable PoE runs back to the NVR keep the job clean.
• Small business owners self-managing security: AcuSense cuts false alarm fatigue significantly - a business owner checking phone alerts at 2am needs to know the notification is a person, not a possum in the car park.
• Property managers covering multiple entry points: 4 cameras with wide 105.1-degree FOV on the 2.8mm lens means each camera can be positioned at a gate, driveway, side access, or rear entrance without needing extra units to fill gaps.
• Strata and body corporate committees: A pre-matched kit eliminates compatibility guesswork. Cameras and NVR are confirmed to work together out of the box, and H.265+ compression reduces storage consumption - relevant when a single HDD has to carry weeks of footage across 4 channels.

Honest Assessment

This kit does well as a matched, ready-to-install outdoor system where AcuSense filtering is the priority and 4 camera positions cover the site. The combination of 6MP resolution, 30-metre IR, 120dB WDR, and IP67 housing makes each camera genuinely capable in outdoor conditions. H.265+ keeps storage manageable, and the NVR's built-in PoE ports remove the need for a separate switch. The built-in microphone on each camera adds on-site audio capture. What this kit won't do: it does not expand beyond 4 channels without upgrading the NVR, the 2.8mm fixed lens means you cannot zoom in on long driveways or perimeter fences without losing detail at distance, and there is no built-in storage included - a compatible HDD must be purchased separately. Available through Security Australia, this kit suits sites with up to 4 defined outdoor camera positions and straightforward cable runs.

Complete Package Contents

• 4 x Hikvision DS-2CD2366G2-IU (Black) - 6MP AcuSense outdoor turret camera, 2.8mm fixed lens, 105.1° FOV, 30m IR, IP67, built-in microphone, PoE (802.3af)
• 1 x Hikvision DS-7604NI-I1-4P - 4-channel NVR with 4 built-in PoE ports, 1x SATA HDD bay (HDD not included)

Before You Buy

Quick Fit Check

• Good match if: You have up to 4 outdoor camera positions on a residential or small commercial site and want AcuSense filtering to reduce false alerts - the DS-7604NI-I1-4P's built-in PoE ports mean a single Cat5e run per camera is all the cabling required.
• Good match if: The building has dark fascias, black Colorbond fencing, or an architectural finish where a standard white camera housing would be visually inconsistent - the black DS-2CD2366G2-IU housing integrates cleanly without a colour mismatch.
• You may need a different model if: Your site has more than 4 camera positions, requires optical zoom to cover long driveways or perimeter fencing beyond 30 metres in detail, or needs pan-tilt-zoom capability - an 8-channel NVR kit or a PTZ camera system available on securityaustralia.com.au would be more appropriate.

Real-World Scenarios

How It Compares

• Choose this if: You need a complete matched 4-camera outdoor system with AcuSense AI filtering, black housings for architectural sites, and a single-cable PoE setup requiring no additional switch or power supplies.
• You may need a different model if: Your site has more than 4 camera positions, requires coverage of long perimeter fencing or distant approaches beyond 30 metres in detail, or needs optical zoom or pan-tilt-zoom capability - an 8-channel NVR kit or PTZ bundle would be more appropriate.
• Pairs well with: A surveillance-rated SATA HDD (4TB or 6TB) sized for your required retention period, and a Cat5e or Cat6 cable pull kit for clean in-wall installation.

Common Questions

1. Does this kit include a hard drive?

   No. The DS-7604NI-I1-4P NVR ships with a single SATA HDD bay but no drive installed. You will need to purchase a compatible surveillance-rated hard drive separately before the system can record. For 4 x 6MP cameras running H.265+ compression, a 4TB drive provides approximately 14-21 days of continuous recording depending on motion settings and scene activity.

2. Will this kit work with existing Hikvision cameras I already have?

   Yes, in most cases. The DS-7604NI-I1-4P NVR supports Hikvision IP cameras and ONVIF-compatible third-party cameras, so existing cameras can be added to unused channels provided the NVR has capacity. Note that AcuSense analytics on the NVR will only function with cameras that support AcuSense - the DS-2CD2366G2-IU cameras in this kit are confirmed AcuSense-capable.

3. What does AcuSense actually filter out, and how accurate is it?

   AcuSense uses deep-learning algorithms trained to classify motion events as either human, vehicle, or neither. Animals, wind-blown foliage, rain, and passing headlight reflections are categorised as non-human, non-vehicle events and will not trigger a human or vehicle alert. This significantly reduces after-hours notification fatigue compared to standard pixel-based motion detection. The DS-2CD2366G2-IU's AcuSense classification operates at the camera level, so alerts are pre-filtered before reaching the NVR or your phone app.

4. How far can I run the camera cables from the NVR?

   100 metres is the maximum PoE cable run over Cat5e or Cat6 between the NVR's PoE port and each camera. Beyond 100 metres, signal and power delivery degrade. If any camera position is further away, a PoE extender can bridge the gap. All 4 cameras in this kit use PoE (IEEE 802.3af) and the NVR's built-in ports supply power and carry video data over the same cable - no separate power supply is needed at any camera location.

5. What is the recognition distance on these cameras - will I be able to identify someone at my front gate?

   At the 2.8mm lens fitted to the DS-2CD2366G2-IU, the DORI recognition distance is 15.7 metres and identification distance is 7.9 metres. If your gate or point of interest is within 7.9 metres of the camera mounting position, the footage will provide identification-level detail. For gates or entry points further than 15 metres, a narrower lens or an additional camera positioned closer would be required. These are confirmed DORI values supplied with the camera specifications.

6. Can I access this system remotely on my phone?

   Yes. The DS-7604NI-I1-4P NVR supports remote access via Hikvision's Hik-Connect platform and the iVMS-4500 mobile app on iOS and Android. Remote viewing requires the NVR to be connected to your internet router via the NVR's network port. AcuSense push notifications - alerting you to human or vehicle detections - can also be delivered to your phone through Hik-Connect once the system is registered. Network configuration is handled through the NVR's setup wizard. If you need help with setup, the team at Security Australia can assist with configuration questions.

Cabling Considerations

• Cable Type: Cat5e minimum, Cat6 recommended - especially for runs over 60 metres or in conduit with other cables generating interference.
• Max Cable Run: 100 metres per camera from NVR PoE port to camera position. Measure actual cable path - not straight-line distance - including any roof cavity or conduit detours.
• PoE Notes: All 4 cameras run on IEEE 802.3af PoE. The DS-7604NI-I1-4P has 4 built-in PoE ports that supply all 4 cameras directly - no external PoE switch or injector is required for this kit.
• Wiring Tips: Terminate cables with RJ45 plugs only after pulling - avoid pre-terminated patch leads for in-wall runs. Use outdoor-rated Cat6 with UV-resistant jacket for any cable sections exposed to direct sunlight or weather, particularly the last run from wall penetration to camera mounting point.
