The turret housing suits eave, soffit, and wall mounting across residential, retail, and small commercial sites. Cameras are available in 2.8mm (105 degree horizontal FOV) or 4mm (89 degree horizontal FOV) fixed lens options. The included 8-port PoE NVR supports plug-and-play camera connection over a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable per camera, delivering 80Mbps total input bandwidth, 4K HDMI output, VGA output, and remote viewing via the HiLookVision app. No hard drive is included and must be added separately.
Key Capabilities
6MP Turret Imaging
Each IPC-T361H-MU delivers 3200 x 1800 resolution from a low-profile turret housing suited to eave, soffit, and wall installation. The compact form factor makes the cameras straightforward to position at entry points, driveways, and perimeter corridors without the visual weight of a bullet camera.
AcuSense Human and Vehicle Detection
Deep learning on each camera classifies motion events as human or vehicle activity, filtering out triggers caused by animals, foliage, and lighting changes. This reduces irrelevant notification volume and makes it easier to act on events that actually matter across an 8-camera deployment.
Dual Built-In Microphones
Each camera includes 2 built-in microphones with noise filtering, enabling on-camera audio recording alongside video. This is useful for capturing ambient sound at entrances, shopfronts, and reception areas without requiring external audio devices at each camera position.
8-Port PoE Plug-and-Play NVR
The NVR-108MH-C/8P includes 8 dedicated PoE ports that power and connect each IPC-T361H-MU over a single network cable. Cameras are auto-detected on connection, which simplifies commissioning for DIY installs and reduces the cabling overhead compared to separate PoE switch setups.
30m EXIR Night Vision with Smart IR
EXIR infrared illumination reaches up to 30m in low or zero ambient light, with smart IR intensity adjustment to prevent overexposure on nearby subjects. This makes the cameras functional across driveways, carports, and building perimeters where artificial lighting is limited or absent.
120dB True WDR
Wide dynamic range at 120dB handles scenes where bright and dark areas exist simultaneously, such as entrances backlit by sunlight or carparks with mixed artificial and natural light. Both shadow detail and highlight areas remain visible in the recorded image rather than clipping to black or white.
Best For
- Homes with multiple access points: The 8-camera capacity and turret housing cover front doors, side gates, driveways, and rear yards from a single NVR with no additional PoE switch required.
- Small retail and office sites: AcuSense classification reduces alert fatigue in busy environments by distinguishing people and vehicles from other motion sources across all 8 channels simultaneously.
- Sites needing audio recording: The dual built-in microphones on each IPC-T361H-MU capture audio at camera level without additional hardware, which is useful at customer-facing spaces or staff entry points.
- Installers wanting simple commissioning: The 8 PnP PoE ports on the NVR-108MH-C/8P auto-detect connected cameras, reducing setup time and eliminating the need for separate PoE injection or managed switches.
- Sites requiring flexible lens coverage: The choice between 2.8mm wide-angle and 4mm focused lens options on the IPC-T361H-MU allows each camera position to be matched to its specific coverage requirement.
Why Choose the IPC-T361H-MU + NVR-108MH-C/8P Kit
What separates this kit from entry-level 8-camera systems is the combination of 6MP AcuSense detection, dual microphone audio capture, and a fully matched PoE NVR in a single bundle. A basic 2MP or 4MP kit without AcuSense records motion without classification, meaning every triggered event requires manual review to assess relevance. The IPC-T361H-MU cameras filter events to human and vehicle targets at the camera level before any alert is generated or recording flagged. The NVR-108MH-C/8P supports H.265+ compression across all 8 channels, which reduces the storage footprint compared to H.264 recordings at the same resolution, keeping HDD costs manageable. The 4K HDMI output allows direct connection to a compatible monitor for local review without resolution compromise. This kit is available through Security Wholesalers and includes everything needed to start except a hard drive, which can be added separately to suit the required retention period.

Buyer Decision Tips
Lens Selection: Order the 2.8mm lens variant of the IPC-T361H-MU for positions covering wide open areas such as front yards, retail floors, or carparks where a 105-degree horizontal field of view is needed. Choose the 4mm variant for focused coverage of entrances, gates, or driveways where a narrower 89-degree field of view provides more detail at the target distance. You can mix lens options across the 8 cameras in the kit to match each position.
Storage Planning: The NVR-108MH-C/8P has 1 SATA bay supporting a single hard drive with no HDD included in this kit. At 6MP with H.265+ compression across 8 cameras recording continuously, a 4TB surveillance-grade drive will typically provide several days of retention. For longer retention, a higher-capacity drive (6TB or 8TB) should be selected at the time of purchase. Ensure the drive is a surveillance-rated model such as WD Purple or Seagate Skyhawk for compatibility and sustained write performance.

Ideal Use Cases
Residential Multi-Point Coverage
8 IP67-rated turret cameras cover all access points around a home, including front entry, side gates, driveway, and backyard, with AcuSense alerts sent only when a person or vehicle is detected rather than on every motion trigger.
Retail Shopfronts and Small Stores
6MP resolution captures usable detail at checkout counters, entry doors, and aisle ends. The dual microphone audio recording on each IPC-T361H-MU supports incident documentation at customer-facing locations without additional audio hardware.
Office and Commercial Premises
The compact turret profile suits reception areas, corridor ceilings, and car park entry points where a discreet camera form factor is preferred. AcuSense vehicle detection is useful for car parks with after-hours access requirements.
Small Warehouses and Yard Areas
IP67-rated housings handle outdoor exposure at loading bay overhangs and yard perimeters. The 30m EXIR night vision maintains usable footage after hours, and vehicle classification helps identify after-hours vehicle movement in yard areas.
DIY and Installer-Commissioned Sites
The 8-port PnP NVR eliminates the need for a separate PoE switch and auto-detects cameras on connection. H.265+ compression reduces storage consumption, and the HiLookVision app provides remote access without complex network configuration.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this kit if: You need 8 cameras with AcuSense human and vehicle detection, built-in microphone audio recording, 6MP resolution, and IP67 weatherproofing, all connected through a single plug-and-play PoE NVR with no additional switching hardware.
- Choose a different kit if: Your site requires full-colour night vision without any IR illumination, as the IPC-T361H-MU uses EXIR infrared rather than a white-light or full-colour sensor. If colour detail at night is a priority, a kit based on full-colour turret cameras would be more appropriate.
- Choose a different kit if: You need more than 8 cameras now or anticipate expansion beyond 8 channels in the short term, as the NVR-108MH-C/8P has no additional PoE channel capacity and supports only 1 HDD bay for storage.
FAQs
- Does this kit include a hard drive?
No. The NVR-108MH-C/8P has 1 SATA bay but no hard drive is supplied in this kit. A compatible surveillance-grade HDD such as WD Purple or Seagate Skyhawk must be purchased separately and added to the bay before recording will begin. Capacity options are available to add to your order below the kit listing. - Can I mix 2.8mm and 4mm lens cameras in the same kit?
Yes. The IPC-T361H-MU is available in both 2.8mm and 4mm fixed lens variants, and both are fully compatible with the NVR-108MH-C/8P. If you need wider coverage at some positions and a more focused view at others, contact Security Wholesalers before ordering to confirm the lens split can be arranged. - How does AcuSense detection work on these cameras?
Each IPC-T361H-MU processes motion locally using deep learning to classify detected objects as human or vehicle before generating an alert. Events caused by animals, insects, or lighting changes are filtered at the camera level. This reduces the number of alerts sent to the NVR and to the HiLookVision app, making notifications more actionable. - What does the dual built-in microphone record?
The 2 built-in microphones on each IPC-T361H-MU capture ambient audio at the camera location, which is recorded alongside the video stream on the NVR. Audio is stored as part of the camera footage and can be played back through the NVR interface or the HiLookVision app. The cameras do not include a built-in speaker, so this configuration supports audio recording only rather than two-way communication. - Are the cameras suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes. Each IPC-T361H-MU carries an IP67 ingress protection rating, meaning the camera housing is fully sealed against dust and can withstand water immersion at up to 1 metre. This makes the cameras suitable for exposed outdoor positions including eaves, soffits, and external walls subject to rain and weather. - Does the NVR need a separate PoE switch to power the cameras?
No. The NVR-108MH-C/8P includes 8 built-in PoE ports, each capable of powering and connecting an IPC-T361H-MU camera over a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable. The cameras are auto-detected when plugged in, so no separate PoE switch, injector, or manual IP configuration is required for the camera-to-NVR connection. - Do I need to update the NVR firmware after installation?
Yes. Updating the NVR-108MH-C/8P to the latest firmware after installation is recommended to ensure full AcuSense functionality is enabled across all 8 channels. Without a firmware update, some AI detection features may not operate correctly. Firmware updates are available through the NVR interface or via the HiLook support portal.
Cabling Considerations
- Cable Type: Cat5e or Cat6 UTP or FTP network cable is recommended for all camera runs. Shielded FTP cable is preferred in environments with electrical interference such as near switchboards or industrial machinery.
- Maximum Cable Run: Maximum recommended PoE cable run is 100m per camera from the NVR PoE port to the camera. Runs beyond this distance may result in power delivery issues or reduced network stability.
- PoE Considerations: Each IPC-T361H-MU operates on 802.3af PoE. All 8 PoE ports on the NVR-108MH-C/8P are 802.3af compatible. No additional PoE injectors or switches are required when all cameras connect directly to the NVR.
- Wiring Tips: Run each camera cable back individually to the NVR rather than daisy-chaining between cameras. Terminate all cables with RJ45 connectors using T568B wiring standard. Where cables pass through exterior walls, use appropriate conduit and weatherproof grommets to maintain the IP67 rating at the camera installation point.
