What's in the box
Contents: every part, with quantities. Select a part for its full specification.
System: analogue cameras. Reusing existing coax: check its condition and compatibility first.
Recording storage
Storage: 6TB, included. Recording time (estimate): not available for this configuration. It depends on the camera mix, the bitrate and the recording schedule.
Before installation
Three checks apply. Included items: the box list shows the cables, power supplies and mounting accessories supplied. Layout: choose cable lengths and camera positions to suit the site; the number of cameras alone does not determine coverage. Each position: confirm the lens field of view, the lighting and the weather protection.

Changing the cameras, drive size or cable lengths: use the builder, where any part of this kit can be replaced. Each change is checked against the other parts, so an incompatible combination cannot be built.
Product Description
The Dahua XVR5104HS-I3 4-Channel DVR + 6TB Recording (SKU 1xDH-XVR5104HS-4KL-I2+6TB) is a digital video recorder (DVR) from Dahua's WizSense range. It ships with a 6TB hard drive pre-installed, so storage is already in the box.
What the specs mean
- 4 channels: one camera per channel, so up to four cameras. Suits a small shop, office or house.
- 4K: the recorder is described as 4K, the higher-resolution class of CCTV video.
- AI: WizSense is Dahua's AI-assisted recorder range.
- Penta-brid: the recorder is built to take more than one type of camera signal. That can help when you are adding to an existing system rather than starting fresh.
- 6TB drive: 6 terabytes of recording space, fitted and ready.
What else you need
- Up to four compatible cameras, with cabling to each.
- A power supply for each camera, unless your cameras take power another way.
- A monitor to view the recorder.
If the site needs more than four cameras, choose a recorder with more channels. Adding a second unit means managing two separate recorders.
