(HDD no included)
- Dual-HDD Storage: Two SATA interfaces provide additional recording flexibility for eight-camera systems requiring longer retention.
- Built-In Face Recognition: One NVR-side channel compares captured faces against up to 10 databases containing 5,000 images.
- 4-Channel SMD Plus: Recorder-side analytics distinguish human and vehicle motion from less relevant environmental activity.
- 8 PoE Ports: Powers eight compatible IP cameras with an 80 W shared budget and up to 25.5 W per port.
- AI Search: Uses target metadata or uploaded face images to locate relevant appearances within recorded footage.
-
12 MP Camera Access: Supports IP cameras up to 12 MP, adaptive decoding and simultaneous HDMI and VGA display.
Details
WizSense Recording with Expanded Storage Options
The Dahua DHI-NVR2208-8P-I2 is an 8-channel WizSense network video recorder built for shops, offices, entrances and other sites that need intelligent event review with more flexible local storage. Its two SATA interfaces accommodate two HDDs, while eight integrated PoE ports provide direct power and network connections for a complete eight-camera installation.
Face Comparison and Faster Video Investigation
NVR-side intelligence provides one channel of face detection and recognition, one channel of perimeter protection and four channels of SMD Plus. The recorder manages up to 10 face databases containing a combined 5,000 images. AI Search can compare uploaded face pictures or recorded target metadata, helping operators narrow down when and where a person of interest appeared.
Compatible intelligent cameras can contribute additional processing resources. The datasheet lists camera-side face detection and recognition on five channels, perimeter protection on four channels and SMD Plus on six channels. These capacities depend on the connected cameras performing the analytics rather than the recorder processing every channel itself.
PoE, Display and Decoding Resources
- Eight-camera PoE deployment: Eight ports share an 80 W power budget, with up to 25.5 W available from one port.
- High-resolution access: Supports IP cameras up to 12 MP and simultaneous HDMI and VGA output, with HDMI resolution up to 4K.
- Adaptive decoding: Handles up to six 1080p streams at 30 fps with NVR AI disabled, or four streams with AI enabled.
- Storage configuration: Two SATA ports are provided, and the datasheet lists HDD capacity support up to 10 TB.
