Product SKU: Jetts_HiLook_Turret_Acusense_Kit-6MP/8CHNVR-8xT361HCAMS
Product Overview
Covering a full property perimeter with 8 cameras, the HiLook by Hikvision 6MP AcuSense 8-Camera Turret Kit pairs 8 x IPC-T361H-MU outdoor turret cameras with the HiLook NVR-108MH-C-8P and a pre-installed 4TB surveillance hard drive. Each camera delivers 6MP resolution at 3200 x 1800, 30m EXIR night vision, and AcuSense human and vehicle detection to filter out motion events caused by animals or weather conditions. The turret housing suits eave, soffit, and wall mounting across homes and small commercial sites, with IP67 weatherproofing handling outdoor exposure year-round. Built-in microphones on each camera capture audio alongside video footage for added situational context. The 8-channel PoE NVR connects all 8 cameras over a single Ethernet cable each, supports 4K HDMI output, H.265+ compression for efficient storage use, and mobile access via the HiLookVision app. Two wall mount brackets are included to assist with angled surface installations.
Key Capabilities
AcuSense Human and Vehicle Detection
Each IPC-T361H-MU uses AcuSense AI to classify motion as either human or vehicle, filtering out triggers from animals, foliage, and rain. This narrows alert traffic to events that actually warrant attention across driveways, yards, and building entries.
6MP Resolution with Dual Lens Options
At 3200 x 1800, the 6MP sensor captures sufficient detail for identification in outdoor scenes. Buyers choose between a 2.8mm lens at 105 degrees horizontal for open yards and building corners, or a 4mm lens at 88 degrees for driveways, corridors, and more focused sightlines.
30m EXIR Night Vision
Dual IR LEDs with EXIR technology deliver uniform illumination across the full 30m range without the hotspot effect common on single-LED designs. Coverage remains consistent in total darkness at property boundaries, car parks, and rear access points.
8-Port PoE NVR with Plug-and-Play Setup
The NVR-108MH-C-8P provides 8 dedicated PoE ports, powering and connecting each camera over a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable run. Plug-and-play auto-detection means cameras appear in the NVR interface without manual IP configuration, reducing installation time considerably.
4TB Pre-Installed with H.265+ Compression
The kit ships with a 4TB surveillance-grade hard drive already installed. H.265+ compression significantly reduces file sizes compared to older codecs, extending usable recording time across all 8 channels. The single SATA bay supports up to 8TB for sites needing longer retention.
Built-In Microphone Audio Recording
Every camera includes a built-in microphone that records audio alongside video footage. This adds spoken context to recorded incidents and is particularly useful in shopfronts, reception areas, and entry points where verbal interactions may form part of an event.
Best For
- Full perimeter coverage for homes: 8 turret cameras with IP67 housings cover front and rear yards, driveways, gates, and side access paths from eave or wall mounts without requiring separate weatherproof enclosures.
- Small commercial sites needing smart detection: AcuSense classification reduces nuisance alert volume in outdoor retail, small warehouse, or light industrial settings where vehicle and pedestrian traffic need to be distinguished from environmental triggers.
- Installations requiring audio evidence capture: The built-in microphone on each camera records audio to the NVR, which is valuable for shopfronts, reception areas, or entry points where verbal exchanges may be relevant to recorded incidents.
- Simplified cabling with PoE: Sites where running separate power to each camera location is impractical benefit from PoE delivery through a single Ethernet cable per camera, reducing conduit requirements and labour.
- Mobile-monitored properties: Remote viewing via the HiLookVision app allows owners, managers, or security contacts to check live and recorded footage from any location without additional software licensing.
Why Choose the HiLook IPC-T361H-MU and NVR-108MH-C-8P Kit
Where a basic 2MP or 4MP kit captures general activity, the IPC-T361H-MU operates at 6MP with AcuSense AI, meaning the system actively distinguishes people and vehicles from other motion rather than simply triggering on any change in pixel values. This matters most at outdoor perimeters where animals, moving trees, or passing headlights would otherwise generate constant alerts. The 120dB true WDR handles scenes where bright sunlight or headlights contrast sharply with shadowed areas, a common issue at driveways and shopfront entries. The 4TB pre-installed drive avoids the additional cost and setup step of sourcing storage separately, and H.265+ compression keeps all 8 camera streams recording efficiently within that capacity. The kit is available through Security Wholesalers and comes ready to deploy with all core components matched and tested together, including 2 wall mount brackets for angled surface installations.

Buyer Decision Tips
Lens Selection: The kit is available with either a 2.8mm or 4mm fixed lens across all 8 cameras. Choose 2.8mm if most camera positions are at building corners, yard overviews, or wide entry points where a 105 degree horizontal field of view is needed. Choose 4mm for properties where most positions are aimed down long driveways, access paths, or corridors where 88 degrees provides a more focused sightline. Both options deliver the same 6MP resolution and 30m IR range, so the choice is purely about coverage width vs. reach at each position.
Storage Retention Planning: The included 4TB drive supports all 8 camera streams with H.265+ compression, providing a useful recording window depending on motion frequency and stream settings. The NVR-108MH-C-8P has a single SATA bay with a maximum capacity of 8TB. If your site requires longer retention, such as 30 or more days at higher stream quality, consider upgrading the pre-installed drive to a larger surveillance-rated HDD at purchase rather than after installation.

Ideal Use Cases
Residential Perimeter Monitoring
The IP67-rated turret housing mounts directly to eaves and wall surfaces across front yards, side access paths, rear gates, and driveways. AcuSense detection keeps alert activity focused on genuine human and vehicle movement rather than pets or passing shadows.
Small Retail and Shopfront Sites
Built-in microphones on each camera capture audio alongside video at service counters, entry doors, and storage areas. The NVR-108MH-C-8P records all streams simultaneously with H.265+ compression, keeping storage consumption manageable across the full 8-camera system.
Car Parks and Outdoor Access Points
The 6MP sensor at 3200 x 1800 provides enough detail to read number plates and identify individuals in daylight across car park bays and entry lanes. The 120dB true WDR handles the high contrast between bright daylight and shaded undercover areas without overexposure.
Small Warehouses and Storage Yards
30m EXIR night vision with uniform illumination covers loading dock entrances, yard perimeters, and roller door approaches after hours. AcuSense vehicle detection is particularly useful in these environments where forklift and truck movements need to be distinguished from wind-triggered vegetation.
Office Buildings and Commercial Tenancies
The 8-channel PoE NVR covers a full single-tenancy commercial building with cameras at entries, exits, reception, and server or storage rooms. Plug-and-play PoE auto-detection simplifies deployment in retrofit commercial installations where structured cabling already exists.
Strata and Multi-Dwelling Entries
The low-profile turret design suits mounting at strata entry lobbies, basement car park entrances, bin enclosures, and letterbox areas without the visual intrusion of a large bullet-style housing. IP67 weatherproofing handles exposed common area locations effectively.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this kit if: You need a complete 8-camera outdoor IP system with AcuSense human and vehicle detection, audio recording, 6MP resolution, and 4K NVR output, all with storage pre-installed and PoE cabling simplicity across the full 8 positions.
- Choose a different kit if: Your site requires active deterrence with white light and audio warnings at the camera level, in which case a TiOC or active deterrence turret kit with built-in spotlights and speakers would be more appropriate than this IR-only, microphone-only configuration.
- Choose a different kit if: You need more than 8 channels or a second HDD bay for extended retention across more camera positions, as the NVR-108MH-C-8P is limited to 8 channels and a single SATA drive with a maximum of 8TB.
- Choose a different kit if: Long-range directional coverage of fence lines, driveways exceeding 30m, or industrial yards is the primary requirement, where a bullet camera with greater IR throw would provide more suitable coverage geometry than the turret housing in this kit.
FAQs
- Does this kit support two-way audio communication through the cameras?
No. Each IPC-T361H-MU camera includes a built-in microphone for audio recording only. There is no built-in speaker in the camera, so two-way voice communication is not supported. Audio recorded by the microphone is stored on the NVR alongside the video stream and can be reviewed during playback. - Can I choose a mix of 2.8mm and 4mm lenses across the 8 cameras?
The kit is configured with either all 2.8mm or all 4mm cameras depending on the variant selected at purchase. If you need a combination of focal lengths across different positions, you would need to source individual IPC-T361H-MU cameras separately in your preferred lens to supplement the kit. - How much recording time does the 4TB drive provide across all 8 cameras?
Recording duration depends on stream resolution, frame rate, scene complexity, and whether continuous or motion-triggered recording is used. H.265+ compression significantly reduces file sizes compared to H.264, so actual retention time with H.265+ at standard quality settings across 8 cameras can be substantially longer than uncompressed estimates. For precise calculations based on your preferred settings, the NVR interface includes a storage estimation tool. - What is the maximum hard drive capacity the NVR-108MH-C-8P supports?
The NVR-108MH-C-8P has a single SATA bay and supports surveillance-grade hard drives up to 8TB. The kit ships with 4TB pre-installed. If longer recording retention is required, the installed drive can be replaced or upgraded to a larger surveillance-rated HDD at any time. - Are the 2 wall mount brackets enough for all 8 cameras?
The kit includes 2 x Hikvision DS-1273ZJ-130-TRL wall mount brackets. These are intended for camera positions where a direct flat surface mount is not practical and an angled bracket is needed. Cameras mounted directly to flat soffits or eaves typically do not require a bracket. Additional DS-1273ZJ-130-TRL brackets are available separately if more than 2 bracket-mounted positions are required. - How does AcuSense detection work with the NVR in this kit?
AcuSense processing occurs in the IPC-T361H-MU camera itself. The camera sends classification data to the NVR-108MH-C-8P, which can then trigger recording events and push notifications specifically when a human or vehicle is detected, rather than on all motion. This keeps alert volume focused and avoids filling storage with false motion events caused by animals, rain, or blowing foliage. - Where can I find technical documentation for the cameras and NVR in this kit?
The IPC-T361H-MU datasheet and the NVR-108MH-C-8P datasheet are both linked in the Additional Information section below this listing. The kit is part of the Security Wholesalers range, and support queries regarding compatibility, configuration, or installation can be directed to the Security Wholesalers team directly.
Cabling Considerations
- Cable Type: Cat5e minimum, Cat6 recommended for all camera runs. Cat6 provides better headroom for the 6MP stream bandwidth and reduces signal degradation over longer runs.
- Maximum PoE Cable Run: Standard IEEE 802.3af/at PoE is rated to 100m per cable run from the NVR to each camera. Keeping runs within this limit ensures reliable power delivery and stable network performance.
- Conduit and Weatherproofing: For outdoor cable runs exposed to UV, rain, or physical damage risk, route cables through conduit or use outdoor-rated Cat6. The camera housings are IP67 rated but cable terminations at junction boxes or wall penetrations should be sealed appropriately to prevent moisture ingress.
- Wiring Tips: All 8 PoE ports on the NVR-108MH-C-8P are plug-and-play. Connect each camera with a single Ethernet cable and the NVR will auto-detect and assign each camera without manual IP addressing. Plan cable routes from each camera position back to a central NVR location before installation to minimise cable run lengths and avoid unnecessary splices.
