The Hikvision iDS-7204HUHI-M1/XT is a 4-channel hybrid digital video recorder (DVR) that brings advanced AI-driven security features to your existing analog setup. Featuring Hikvision's AcuSense deep-learning engine, this recorder detects and classifies human and vehicle shapes, filtering out up to 90% of false alarms. With support for recording resolutions up to 5MP, it provides crisp and highly detailed video evidence.
Hikvision iDS-7204HUHI-M1/XT 4-Channel 5MP AcuSense Turbo HD DVR
This 5-in-1 hybrid recorder is ideal for homes and small businesses looking to add smart monitoring capabilities to their BNC cameras without completely re-cabling. It dynamically accepts HDTVI, AHD, CVI, CVBS, and IP inputs, allowing you to run a mix of older analog and modern network cameras on one system. Up to 8 IP cameras can be integrated, providing scalability as your surveillance needs expand.
AcuSense technology filters out environmental false alerts such as wind, rain, shadows, and moving foliage. Crucial events are captured in high resolution and encoded using H.265 Pro+, which reduces storage space and bandwidth requirements by up to 75% compared to older codecs. This allows you to retain high-definition footage for longer periods on a single hard drive.
AcuSense Intelligent AI Detection
The iDS-7204HUHI-M1/XT utilizes built-in deep-learning algorithms to differentiate humans and vehicles from other moving objects. It supports perimeter protection on all 4 channels, allowing you to configure virtual line crossing and intrusion detection lines that trigger alerts only when a person or vehicle crosses them.
High-Resolution 5MP Recording & 4K Output
This DVR records analog cameras at up to 5MP resolution, capturing vital details like faces and license plates clearly. It also features a 4K HDMI video output, ensuring your monitor displays a crystal-clear live view of all connected channels.
H.265 Pro+ Video Compression
Hikvision's H.265 Pro+ compression optimizes encoding to drastically reduce the storage size of high-resolution video streams. This keeps storage costs low, allowing you to record longer on a standard SATA hard drive without sacrificing image quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I connect standard analog cameras to this DVR?
Yes, this DVR is compatible with traditional CVBS (analog) cameras as well as HDTVI, AHD, and CVI high-definition formats.
Does it support third-party IP cameras?
Yes, the DVR supports ONVIF-compliant third-party IP cameras up to 8 MP resolution, allowing you to mix analog and network cameras.
What is AcuSense technology?
AcuSense is Hikvision's AI technology that filters out false alarms caused by environmental factors, focusing notifications specifically on human and vehicle movement.
Can I view the cameras remotely?
Yes, the DVR supports the Hik-Connect mobile app, allowing you to watch live feeds, play back recorded video, and receive push notifications on your phone.
Does this DVR include a hard drive?
No, the hard drive is sold separately. The unit has 1 SATA interface that supports a single hard drive up to 10 TB capacity.
Can it record audio from cameras?
Yes, it supports Audio-over-Coax (AoC) on all channels. With compatible BNC cameras that feature built-in microphones, audio is transmitted over the video coax cable without separate wiring.
What is the difference between this and the PoC version?
This standard model requires the BNC cameras to be powered by their own individual power adapters or splitters. The PoC version (M1/PXT) can power compatible PoC cameras directly over the coaxial video cables.
