Description
Hikvision DS-9664NI-M16 — 64-Channel 3U 8K NVR with Sixteen Bays and 256 TB
Sixty-four channels, sixteen drive bays and a matched 400 Mbps in and out: the DS-9664NI-M16 is the M Series recorder for sites that have outgrown 32 cameras but still want one machine to manage. Each channel accepts up to 32 MP, and storage runs to 256 TB across sixteen SATA bays with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6 and 10 plus N+M hot spare behind it. The 3U chassis carries no PoE ports, which suits a 64-camera site already running managed switches, and two gigabit interfaces let camera traffic sit on its own network.
Recording & AI Capability
- 64 channels at up to 32 MP — One recorder for a site that would otherwise need two, with no channel limit on image quality — every input takes a 32 MP camera.
- 400 Mbps in and out — Symmetrical bandwidth means a full 64-camera load can record while operators and remote clients pull streams without contention.
- 256 TB across sixteen bays — Drives up to 16 TB each, plus an eSATA port for external expansion, give a large fleet the retention its incident reviews actually need.
- RAID with N+M hot spare — RAID 0, 1, 5, 6 and 10 with automatic hot-spare takeover keeps 64 channels recording straight through a drive failure.
- Two screens, 8K and 4K — HDMI 1 up to 8K at 30 Hz and an independent HDMI 2 at 4K 60 Hz, each with a paired 1080p VGA — live wall on one, investigation on the other.
- Decoding and smart functions — 2 channels at 32 MP through to 32 at 1080p simultaneously with 16-channel playback, plus AcuSense, ANPR, people counting and perimeter rules on compatible cameras.
Where It Fits
For large single sites — manufacturing plants, shopping strips, showgrounds, gated estates — that want 64 cameras and long retention in one rack unit. Ask about the DS-9664NI-M16/R where redundant power supplies are required, or the DS-9664NI-M8 for the same channel count in 2U.
