Common questions

Does this NVR power the cameras?

Yes. It has 8 PoE+ ports (802.3af/at) supplying up to 30 W per port and 90 W in total.

Is a hard drive included?

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.

How much storage can it hold?

Two SATA drives of up to 16TB each, 32TB in total. There is also an eSATA port for an external storage device.

What resolution can it record?

Up to 8MP per camera, within 160 Mbps of incoming bandwidth in total.

How many cameras can it play back at once?

Up to 8 channels at the same time. Fewer, or none, if the total resolution is over 32MP.

Which hardware version is this?

V2, the version TP-Link Australia lists now. The figures on this page and the datasheet on the Attachments tab are for V2.

What are the alarm terminals for?

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.

Can I connect a TV and a monitor?

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.

Can I watch the cameras on my phone?

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.

Will it work with other camera brands?

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.

Can it go in a rack?

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.

What warranty does it have?

3 years, under TP-Link Australia's warranty. Contact us first and we will look after the claim.

Installation and safety

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.
