The Command Center for Your Video Surveillance
No more complicated setups and countless power adapters. The TP-Link VIGI NVR1008H-8MP is the heart of your security system. With its 8 integrated PoE+ ports, you power up to eight cameras directly via the Network cable – a clean and efficient solution. The total power budget of 113 watts is also sufficient for powerful cameras. All video streams converge here centrally, are recorded, and can be managed by you in one place. It couldn't be simpler or clearer.
Crystal-Clear Details, Smartly Stored
Security means recognizing every detail. That's why this NVR supports cameras with a resolution of up to 8 megapixels (4K). You get razor-sharp images that can be crucial for identifying people or objects. To ensure that storage space doesn't become a challenge, intelligent H.265+ video compression is used. It drastically reduces file size without you noticing any loss in quality. This means for you: you can record significantly longer on the same hard drive and simultaneously save Network bandwidth.
Worldwide Access with the NVR with App Access
Whether you're in the office, on vacation, or just in the garden – with the VIGI NVR1008H-8MP, you always have an eye on your property. TP-Link offers you impressive flexibility in access: manage your system locally via a connected monitor, access it on your home Network via the web interface, or use the full range of functions on the go with the free VIGI App for iOS and Android. This Surveillance Recorder for 8 Cameras gives you control, anytime, anywhere.
Plug & Play Installation and Maximum Compatibility
Setting up your surveillance system has never been easier. In combination with TP-Link VIGI cameras, commissioning works via Plug & Play. The NVR automatically detects the cameras and configures them for you. But you are not limited to one brand: thanks to ONVIF compliance, the recorder is compatible with a variety of IP Cameras from other manufacturers. This gives you the freedom to put together the perfect system for you, without compromising on functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can the TP-Link VIGI NVR1008H-8MP also manage cameras from other manufacturers?
Yes, the NVR is ONVIF-compatible. This means it can work with most third-party IP Cameras that also support the ONVIF standard. However, for optimal performance and to utilize all features, the use of TP-Link VIGI cameras is recommended.
Is a hard drive included with the NVR?
No, a hard drive (HDD) is not included and must be purchased and installed separately. The NVR supports a 3.5-inch SATA hard drive with a capacity of up to 16 TB.
Do I need a separate switch to connect the cameras?
No, for up to 8 PoE-enabled cameras, a separate switch is not required. The NVR features 8 integrated PoE+ ports that directly power and network the cameras.
Can I access live images and recordings remotely?
Yes, remote access is a core feature. Via the free VIGI App for smartphones and tablets or the VIGI Security Manager software for PCs, you can connect to the NVR to view live images, play back recordings, and manage settings.
Does the NVR support 4K resolution on the monitor?
Yes, the HDMI output supports a resolution of up to 4K (3840x2160) at 30Hz. This allows you to display the high-resolution images from your cameras on a compatible 4K monitor or TV without loss of quality.
What happens if the hard drive is full?
By default, loop recording (overwriting) is enabled. When the hard drive is full, the NVR automatically begins to overwrite the oldest recordings to make space for new ones. This ensures continuous recording.
