What's in the box
The full contents of the kit are listed here, with the quantity of each part. Selecting a part opens its complete specification.
It uses analogue cameras, so it is worth checking the condition and compatibility of any existing coax before reusing it.
Recording storage
The kit includes 1TB of storage. How many days it records is decided by the mix of cameras, their bitrate and the recording schedule, so for this configuration we cannot give a reliable day estimate.
Before installation
Before installing, look through the box list to see which cables, mounting accessories and power supplies are included. Then plan cable lengths and camera positions around your layout — as a rule, how many cameras there are does not tell you what will be covered. Finally, at each position, make sure the lens gives the field of view you need and that the lighting and weather protection suit it.
Price on request
The kit includes one part without a published price, the Seagate 1TB - HDD 3.5" SATA Hard Drives – Free Installation with Any CCTV Kit or Package -Ideal for 24/7 continuous recording, which is quoted individually. That is why the kit as a whole is priced for you on request, rather than shown with a total. The rest of the contents are listed below.
The recorder
1× Dahua WizSense XVR5104HS-I3 4 Channel 4K AI Penta-brid CCTV DVR
The unit that records every camera and runs the viewing app
The hard drive
1× Seagate 1TB - HDD 3.5" SATA Hard Drives – Free Installation with Any CCTV Kit or Package -Ideal for 24/7 continuous recording
Where the recorded footage is stored
In practice the kit is a starting point: open it in the builder and you can swap the cameras, move to a larger drive or lengthen the cable runs. Every substitution is checked against the remaining parts as you make it, so the builder never lets you assemble parts that do not work together.
Product Description
The Dahua XVR5104HS-I3 is a 4-channel DVR built for small installations where four camera feeds cover the essentials — a shop counter, a warehouse entrance, a small office suite, or a residential block's communal doors.
What it is
This is a WizSense recorder, so it runs Dahua's onboard AI analytics rather than plain motion detection — useful for cutting false alerts on jobs where passing traffic or weather would otherwise trigger constant recordings. It's rated 4K, meaning it can take higher-resolution camera input without downscaling. "Penta-brid" is Dahua's term for a recorder that accepts five signal types — the common HD analogue formats plus IP cameras — so it suits mixed-camera sites: analogue cameras already on-site alongside newer IP additions, or a phased upgrade where cameras get swapped out over time without replacing the recorder.
What's in the box
- Dahua XVR5104HS-I3 4-channel DVR unit
- 1TB hard drive, pre-installed — no need to source or fit a drive separately before recording starts
Where it fits
For trade buyers, the 4-channel count and pre-fitted 1TB drive make this a straightforward spec for small-site jobs — get it on-site, connect cameras, and start recording without a separate drive-fitting step. Channel count is the main sizing factor: match it to camera count for the job, not to the building size.
