Defender Sentinel 4K 8 Channel PoE NVR Kit 4 Cameras 1TB HDD

4K Ultra HD 8-Channel PoE NVR Kit

The Defender Sentinel kit delivers 8-megapixel recording across eight PoE channels with a pre-installed 1TB hard drive. Four IP66-rated metal turret cameras connect through single-cable Power-over-Ethernet for simplified wiring. H.265 and H.264 compression options help maximise storage efficiency while recording at up to 25 frames per second.

Suited for whole-home coverage with AI alerts

Homeowners who want colour night vision to 100 feet, two-way audio capture and real-time human detection with blue-red deterrent lights will benefit. The system works exclusively with the Defender Empower app, so buyers tied to other Defender software or third-party platforms should look elsewhere. ONVIF support allows integration with compatible recorders, yet mobile control remains locked to one application.

8-channel capacity with 4 cameras included

Eight RJ-45 PoE ports accept up to eight cameras, while the box supplies four turret units and a 1TB drive. Adding more cameras expands coverage without extra power supplies, but the NVR cannot record beyond its eight-channel limit. Buyers planning larger installations should verify the channel ceiling before purchasing.
