In one sentence: the VIGI-NVR2008H-8MP (V2) is a TP-Link VIGI 8-channel network video recorder with 8 PoE+ ports sharing 90 W, 160 Mbps incoming bandwidth, recording up to 8MP per camera and two SATA bays of up to 16TB each.
Recorder only, unless you choose a drive.
The recorder needs at least one hard drive to record. Choose the drive size in the options above, or select No HDD and fit your own surveillance drives in the two bays.
Eight PoE+ ports (802.3af/at) supply up to 30 W each and 90 W in total. The recorder takes 160 Mbps from the cameras, decodes 4 channels at 8MP or 8 at 4MP at 30 fps, and records to two SATA drives of up to 16TB each, 32TB in total. A Gigabit LAN port, a rear USB 3.0 port and an eSATA port handle backups and remote viewing.

Front
Two SATA bays take up to 16TB each, 32TB in total. Status lights for system, network, drive and PoE load, and a USB 2.0 port on the front for the mouse.

Connections
8 × 10/100 Mbps PoE+ ports and one 10/100/1000 Mbps LAN port. HDMI up to 3840 × 2160 and VGA up to 1920 × 1080, independent or mirrored. 6 alarm inputs and 4 outputs for sensors and sirens, RCA audio in and out, USB 3.0, eSATA, a grounding terminal and a security slot.
How it goes in

Pair it with

Cameras
TP-Link recommends VIGI cameras for the best results with this recorder. Other ONVIF Profile S or T cameras also record.
Security
Keep the recorder out of reach so a thief can't take the footage with it. Ask us about the 24SECCAB security cabinet.
Bigger sites
Cameras too far from the recorder, or more than eight of them? Ask us about a PoE switch, or step up to the 16-channel VIGI NVR2016H-16MP.
Where it is used
Counter, entry, stockroom and rear door, with a siren on the alarm outputs.
Reception, entries, the server cupboard and the car park.
Roller doors, loading bay and the yard, with door sensors on the alarm inputs.
Front door, driveway, gates and back yard, with two drives for longer recording.
House, sheds and gates on one recorder.

Figures come from each recorder's own TP-Link datasheet. Same case and connections; the NVR2016H-16MP doubles the channels and bandwidth.
Yes. It has 8 PoE+ ports (802.3af/at) supplying up to 30 W per port and 90 W in total.
Only if you choose one. Pick the drive size in the options above, or choose No HDD and fit your own. A drive must be fitted for the recorder to work.
Two SATA drives of up to 16TB each, 32TB in total. There is also an eSATA port for an external storage device.
Up to 8MP per camera, within 160 Mbps of incoming bandwidth in total.
Up to 8 channels at the same time. Fewer, or none, if the total resolution is over 32MP.
V2, the version TP-Link Australia lists now. The figures on this page and the datasheet on the Attachments tab are for V2.
6 alarm inputs take door contacts, smoke detectors or other sensors, and 4 alarm outputs drive sirens or alarm devices. Terminal blocks are in the box.
Yes. It has one HDMI output up to 3840 × 2160 and one VGA output up to 1920 × 1080, which can show the same or different views.
Yes. Connect the Gigabit LAN port to your router and add the recorder to the VIGI app on Android or iOS, or use the VIGI PC client.
It supports ONVIF Profile S and T, so most ONVIF cameras record. TP-Link recommends VIGI cameras, as some features may not work fully with other brands.
Mounting brackets are in the box. Because of its weight TP-Link recommends a tray when it sits on rack angle rails; the tray is not included.
3 years, under TP-Link Australia's warranty. Contact us first and we will look after the claim.

Power. The recorder runs from its 53.5 V DC power adapter plugged into an existing power point. A new circuit or any switchboard work needs a licensed electrician. Unplug it before fitting or removing a drive.
Camera and alarm cabling. Concealed cabling between the cameras and the recorder is customer cabling under AS/CA S009 and needs an ACMA-registered cabler.
Privacy and audio. Recording people and conversations is covered by state and territory surveillance laws. Point cameras at your own property and check the rules before you record audio.
What it does not do. It has no analogue (coax) inputs, and the PoE ports are 10/100 Mbps. PoE stops at 90 W in total. Smart detection comes from the cameras, not the recorder.
