Product SKU: 4xHDW38466MP/DHI-WizsenseNVR 4CH
Product Overview
Built as a complete 4-camera IP surveillance solution, this Dahua kit pairs 4 x DH-IPC-HDW3866EMP-S-AUS 8MP WizSense turret cameras with a DHI-NVR4104HS-P-AI/ANZ 4-channel PoE NVR, making it well suited to homes, small businesses, and light commercial properties requiring high-resolution coverage. Featuring a 3840 × 2160 resolution Starlight sensor, each camera delivers exceptional image clarity in both bright and low-light conditions. It integrates SMD 4.0 deep learning technology, which filters out animals and irrelevant objects to reduce false alarms, and is part of the Security Wholesalers range. This makes it suitable for property owners who need reliable human and vehicle detection with push notification alerts. Each camera includes a built-in microphone, IP67 weatherproofing, and up to 30 metres of infrared night vision, with PoE powering all 4 cameras directly from the NVR.

Key Capabilities
8MP 4K Starlight Imaging
Each camera captures 3840 × 2160 resolution footage, delivering sharp, detailed images that allow you to clearly identify faces, licence plates, and clothing colours — critical for post-event investigation and real-time monitoring in both daylight and low-light environments.
SMD 4.0 Smart Motion Detection
SMD 4.0 uses an upgraded deep learning algorithm to classify moving objects as human or vehicle, filtering out animals, insects, and other irrelevant triggers. This dramatically reduces false alarm notifications so you only receive alerts that genuinely require attention.
4-Channel PoE NVR Included
The DHI-NVR4104HS-P-AI/ANZ NVR powers all 4 cameras via PoE directly through standard Cat6 cabling, eliminating the need for separate power adapters at each camera location and simplifying installation significantly for installers and DIY users alike.
Built-In Microphone
Each camera includes a built-in microphone, enabling audio capture alongside video footage. This is particularly useful for verifying incidents, capturing conversations at entry points, and providing richer event evidence without requiring an external audio device.
30m Infrared Night Vision
The built-in IR LEDs provide up to 30 metres of night vision coverage, ensuring each camera continues to capture clear monochrome footage after dark. This makes the kit effective for monitoring driveways, yards, carparks, and building perimeters around the clock.
IP67 Weatherproof Construction
All 4 cameras carry an IP67 ingress protection rating, meaning they are fully sealed against dust and can withstand water immersion. This makes them suitable for outdoor installation in harsh Australian weather conditions including rain, humidity, and extreme heat.
Local MicroSD Backup Storage
Each camera supports up to 256GB MicroSD card storage, providing a local backup recording option independent of the NVR. This redundancy ensures footage is preserved even if the NVR becomes unavailable, adding an extra layer of data security.
Best For
- Residential Security: Homeowners wanting 4K coverage of driveways, entry points, yards, and garages with intelligent human and vehicle detection alerts sent directly to their smartphone.
- Small Business Surveillance: Retail shops, offices, and warehouses needing a complete plug-and-play 8MP IP system that is ready to record from day one with minimal configuration.
- Rental Properties: Landlords or property managers seeking a cost-effective 4-camera kit with weatherproof cameras and reliable NVR storage to monitor shared or external areas.
- Perimeter Monitoring: Properties requiring tripwire and intrusion detection across multiple zones, with the NVR’s AI perimeter drawing tools enabling custom boundary alerts per camera.

Why Choose the Dahua 4 x 8MP WizSense Turret Kit
Compared to a basic 1080p analogue kit, this Dahua WizSense system delivers four times the pixel resolution, meaning finer detail is captured across each camera’s field of view — a significant advantage when reviewing footage for identification purposes. The inclusion of SMD 4.0 artificial intelligence sets this kit apart from standard motion detection systems, as it actively distinguishes humans and vehicles from animals and environmental movement, reducing nuisance alerts that cause many users to disable notifications entirely. The 4-channel PoE NVR simplifies installation by delivering both power and data over a single cable run per camera, while the WizSense AI engine supports perimeter protection tools such as tripwire and intrusion zone configuration directly on the recorder. Built-in microphones on each camera further extend the system’s evidentiary capability without additional cost. Security Wholesalers stocks this kit as a no-HDD configuration, allowing buyers to select the storage size that matches their retention requirements.

Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: This kit does not include a hard drive. Before purchasing, estimate your required storage by considering the number of cameras, recording resolution, and how many days of footage you need to retain. A 4-camera 8MP system recording continuously will fill storage faster than a motion-triggered setup, so selecting a larger HDD (4TB or above) is recommended for most installations.
Buyer Tip: The cameras in this kit operate at 8MP (3840 × 2160) at up to 20fps when AI functions such as SMD 4.0 are enabled, or up to 25/30fps when AI is disabled. If smooth motion capture is a priority for fast-moving environments such as carparks or busy retail areas, consider whether AI features or higher frame rate better suits your use case.

No, this kit does not include an HDD. The DHI-NVR4104HS-P-AI/ANZ NVR has an internal HDD bay and is sold without a drive so buyers can choose the storage capacity that suits their retention needs. Compatible surveillance hard drives including WD Purple and Seagate Skyhawk options are available to add separately through Security Wholesalers. - What resolution do the cameras record at?
Each DH-IPC-HDW3866EMP-S-AUS camera records at 8MP (3840 × 2160). When AI functions including SMD 4.0 are active, the maximum frame rate is 20fps. When AI is disabled, the cameras can record at up to 25 or 30fps at the same 8MP resolution. - How far can the cameras see at night?
Each camera is equipped with a built-in infrared LED array providing a maximum night vision range of 30 metres. In complete darkness, the cameras switch to monochrome IR mode and maintain clear image capture up to that distance. - What is SMD 4.0 and how does it reduce false alarms?
SMD 4.0 is Dahua’s fourth-generation Smart Motion Detection technology. It uses a deep learning algorithm to classify detected objects as human, vehicle, or other. Crucially, SMD 4.0 has been upgraded to also filter out small and large animals from triggering alerts, and it can detect clothing colour and vehicle colour to assist with quick post-event searches. - Do the cameras have a built-in microphone?
Yes, each DH-IPC-HDW3866EMP-S-AUS camera includes a built-in microphone that captures audio alongside the video stream. This is useful for verifying the nature of an incident and provides richer evidence without requiring external audio hardware. - Can I view footage remotely on my phone?
Yes, the DHI-NVR4104HS-P-AI/ANZ NVR supports remote mobile viewing. The Dahua app allows you to access live streams, review recorded footage, and receive push notification alerts based on SMD 4.0 human and vehicle detection events from your smartphone or tablet. - Are the cameras suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes. Each camera carries an IP67 ingress protection rating, making them fully dustproof and capable of withstanding water immersion. They are designed for permanent outdoor installation and are suitable for Australian weather conditions including heavy rain and high humidity. - What cabling is required to connect the cameras to the NVR?
The NVR delivers power and data to each camera over a single Cat6 Ethernet cable run via the built-in PoE ports. No separate power cables are required at the camera locations, which simplifies installation considerably.
Cabling Considerations
- Cable Type: Cat6 Ethernet cable is recommended for all camera-to-NVR runs to ensure reliable PoE power delivery and stable high-bandwidth 8MP video transmission.
- Maximum Cable Run: PoE cable runs should not exceed 100 metres per IEEE 802.3af standards. Runs beyond this distance may result in power loss or unreliable video transmission.
- PoE Considerations: All 4 cameras are powered directly from the NVR’s built-in PoE ports. No separate power injectors or adapters are required provided cable runs remain within the 100m PoE limit.
- Wiring Tips: Plan cable routes before installation and use conduit or cable clips for outdoor runs to protect cables from UV exposure and physical damage. Terminate cables with RJ45 connectors using T568B wiring standard for consistent results. If cable runs need to exceed 100m, a PoE extender or midspan injector may be used.
