Key Features

8MP Ultra HD 4K Recording

Each camera records in 3840 × 2160 (8MP) resolution, delivering exceptional image quality for identifying faces, licence plates, clothing, and other important details. Combined with H.265+ compression, the system maximises recording efficiency while reducing storage requirements.

Active Deterrence with Blue & Red Strobe Lights

Unlike standard CCTV cameras that simply record incidents, each IPC-T289H-MU/SL camera actively responds to detected intrusions using flashing blue and red warning lights. The visible deterrent helps discourage trespassers before damage or theft occurs.

Built-in Spotlight for Full Colour Night Vision

The integrated white spotlight provides full-colour video during night-time detection events while also acting as an effective visual warning. When illumination isn’t required, the cameras automatically switch to 30-metre infrared night vision for reliable monitoring in complete darkness.

AcuSense Human & Vehicle Detection

HiLook’s AcuSense AI technology accurately distinguishes between humans, vehicles, and environmental movement such as trees, shadows, rain, or animals. This significantly reduces false alarms while ensuring notifications relate to genuine security events.

Two-Way Audio Communication

Each camera includes both a built-in microphone and speaker, allowing live conversations through the HiLookVision app. Users can speak directly to visitors, delivery drivers, or potential intruders from anywhere using their smartphone.

Plug-and-Play PoE Installation

The included HiLook NVR-104MH-C-4P features 4 integrated PoE ports, allowing every camera to receive both power and data through a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable. No separate power supplies or PoE injectors are required.

Expandable 4-Channel System

Although supplied with two cameras, the NVR supports up to four compatible HiLook IP cameras, allowing additional coverage to be added later without replacing the recorder.

Weatherproof Outdoor Design

Each camera carries an IP67 weatherproof rating, making them suitable for year-round outdoor installation in rain, dust, heat, and cold.

Why Choose This HiLook 2 Camera CCTV Kit?

Buyer Tips

Choose the Right Hard Drive

This kit does not include storage.

For most residential users:

• 2TB – Short-term recording
• 4TB – Recommended for most homes
• 6TB–8TB – Longer retention or future camera expansion

Always use surveillance-grade drives such as WD Purple or Seagate SkyHawk.

Use Cat6 Cable for Best Performance

Although Cat5e is supported, Cat6 Ethernet cable is recommended for 8MP cameras to ensure maximum bandwidth and reliable PoE performance, particularly on longer cable runs.
