Hikvision iDS-7216HQHI-M1/XT/16A+4/1ALM 5-in-1 Hybrid DVR with AcuSense, 16-Channel Analog + 8-Channel IP, 16 Alarm In / 4 Alarm Out

For installations that demand both legacy analog compatibility and modern IP flexibility, the Hikvision iDS-7216HQHI-M1/XT/16A+4/1ALM stands apart. This 5-in-1 hybrid recorder accepts TVI, AHD, CVI, and CVBS cameras over 16 BNC inputs, while simultaneously supporting up to 8 IP cameras—expanding total channel count to 24. AcuSense technology brings human and vehicle classification to motion detection and perimeter protection, dramatically reducing false alarms from foliage, animals, or lighting changes.

Highlights

• 16 BNC inputs with auto-detection for TVI / AHD / CVI / CVBS signals
• 8 additional IP camera channels, up to 6 MP resolution each (24 channels total)
• H.265 Pro+ compression cuts bandwidth and storage requirements by up to 75%
• AcuSense: Motion Detection 2.0 and Perimeter Protection on 4 channels with human/vehicle filtering
• 16 alarm inputs and 4 alarm outputs for integrated security response
• Simultaneous HDMI and VGA outputs at 1920×1080, plus CVBS spot output
• 1 SATA interface supporting up to 10 TB HDD for extended retention
• Dual USB ports (1× USB 2.0 front, 1× USB 3.0 rear) for backup and mouse

In daily use

Operators benefit from a recorder that adapts to mixed camera estates. The 5-in-1 BNC architecture means you can reuse existing coaxial cabling while gradually migrating to IP. AcuSense reduces the time spent reviewing false events—only genuine human or vehicle activity triggers alerts. With H.265 Pro+, long-term storage becomes more affordable, and the 10 TB drive capacity supports weeks of retention. The unit runs on 12 VDC and consumes under 24 W (without HDD), making it suitable for 24/7 operation in temperatures from -10 °C to 55 °C.
