Your Command Center for up to 4 Cameras
The VIGI NVR1004H-4P is more than just a recording device – it's the central control unit for your entire video surveillance system. Manage up to four IP Cameras simultaneously, view live images, access recordings, and configure smart alarms – all through a single, intuitive user interface. No more tedious logging into each individual camera. This recorder bundles everything in one place and gives you full control. It is the perfect basis for a professional setup in the TP-Link VIGI area and integrates seamlessly into your existing Network.
One Cable for Everything: Power over Ethernet+ Makes it Possible
Installing a surveillance system has never been easier. Thanks to the four integrated PoE+ (Power over Ethernet) ports, you no longer need separate power supplies for your cameras. A single Network cable per camera is enough to provide both power and a stable data connection. This not only saves time and money during installation but also ensures a tidy and professional appearance without cable clutter. An ideal PoE Surveillance System for Home or the small office.
Crystal-Clear Details in 4K – Live and Recorded
What good is surveillance if you can't see anything? The VIGI NVR1004H-4P supports recording from cameras with up to 8 megapixels and outputs the live image via its HDMI port in brilliant 4K quality. This way, you see every detail crystal clear on your monitor. In combination with highly efficient H.265+ video compression, the huge amounts of data are intelligently reduced. The result: You can record for weeks without the hard drive (up to 10 TB, sold separately) reaching its limits.
Worldwide Access via App: Your Property Always in View
Whether you're on vacation, in the office, or on the go – with the VIGI NVR1004H-4P, you always have the certainty that everything is in order. The Surveillance Camera Recorder with App allows you easy and secure remote access from anywhere in the world. Use the free VIGI App on your smartphone or the VIGI Security Manager on your PC to watch live streams, browse recordings, and receive instant notifications upon motion detection. This way, you react to events in real-time instead of discovering them only afterwards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Which hard drive can I use for the TP-Link VIGI NVR1004H-4P?
You can use a standard 3.5-inch SATA hard drive with a capacity of up to 10 TB. For reliable 24/7 recording, a dedicated Surveillance HDD is recommended.
Can I connect cameras from other brands to this NVR?
Yes, the NVR is ONVIF-compatible (Profile S), which allows the integration of IP Cameras from many other manufacturers that also support this standard. However, VIGI Cameras are recommended for best performance and easiest setup.
How can I access the cameras remotely?
Remote access is possible via the free VIGI App for smartphones and tablets (iOS/Android) or via the VIGI Security Manager software for PCs. This allows you to view live images, play back recordings, and manage settings.
Do the cameras require their own Power Supply?
No. If you use PoE-enabled cameras, they are powered directly by the NVR via the network cable. The NVR provides four PoE Injectors / Power Supplies with a total output of 53 watts for this purpose.
Does the NVR support 4K recording from all 4 channels simultaneously?
The NVR can record cameras with up to 8MP. However, the decoding capability for simultaneous playback is limited, e.g., to 2 channels at 8MP or 4 channels at 4MP. The 4K capability primarily refers to the brilliant live display on a connected 4K monitor.
Does the VIGI NVR1004H-4P have WiFi?
No, this device does not have WiFi functionality. It is designed for a stable, wired surveillance Network. The connection to the WiFi Routers and to the cameras is exclusively via Ethernet Cables.
