Dahua NVR5464-EI2 | 64-Channel WizSense NVR | 4 SATA Bays | 8K HDMI Output | 1.5U Chassis
A large-site recorder that tells people and vehicles apart from passing shadows and keeps footage for busy estates, schools and warehouses.
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
Dahua NVR5464-EI2 is available at Mascom International for KSh 74,000, a 64-channel WizSense network video recorder in a 1.5U chassis with four SATA hard drive bays. It accepts IP cameras up to 32MP, handles 448 Mbps of incoming video and sends live views to two HDMI outputs, the main one reaching 8K. Each bay takes a drive of up to 16TB, so the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 can hold up to 64TB of footage in total. The unit is brand new and sealed, and you can inspect it at our showroom in the Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for security managers, estate committees, school bursars, hotel operators, warehouse owners and the installers who serve them, the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 runs camera systems too large for a 16 or 32-channel box. A gated estate in Kilimani, a factory in Industrial Area or a college campus in Eldoret can pass 40 cameras once gates, car parks and corridors are covered. The usual problem is false alarms: wind, stray cats and headlights trigger motion alerts all night until guards stop looking. The Dahua NVR5464-EI2 uses WizSense AI that filters for people and vehicles, runs face recognition on four channels and perimeter protection on eight, so alerts start to mean something again.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that stock only small consumer recorders, Mascom International carries the Dahua line from 4-channel PoE units up to this 64-channel model, so a growing site can step up without changing brand or app. At Mascom International, we're seeing more buyers ask for one central recorder like the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 instead of three or four smaller ones scattered across a property, which keeps playback and backups in one place. Customers across Nairobi tell us a single DMSS login for every camera matters most to them. Visit the store to see the unit, or order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery to any county.
Common Questions About the Dahua NVR5464-EI2
How much is the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 in Kenya?
The Dahua NVR5464-EI2 costs KSh 74,000 brand new and sealed at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the recorder, a 12-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. Hard drives are not included, so budget for up to four surveillance drives on top. For comparison, the 32-channel Dahua NVR4232-16P-4KS3 costs KSh 29,000, which is KSh 45,000 less, but it has half the channels, two drive bays and no WizSense face recognition on the recorder.
Should I buy the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 or two Dahua NVR4232-16P-4KS3 recorders?
Two Dahua NVR4232-16P-4KS3 units cost KSh 58,000 together, KSh 16,000 less than one Dahua NVR5464-EI2, and give 64 channels plus 32 built-in PoE ports. The trade-off is two boxes, two sets of drives to manage and no recorder-side face recognition or perimeter AI. The 64-channel unit puts every camera in one search, adds 8K display output and takes drives up to 16TB each. Pick the pair if PoE wiring cost is your main worry; pick the single recorder for AI search and central control.
Does the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 have PoE ports for the cameras?
No, the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 has no built-in PoE ports, so cameras connect through separate PoE network switches. It offers two RJ45 network ports instead, which lets an installer keep camera traffic apart from the office network. On a 64-camera site this is normal practice, because PoE switches placed near each camera cluster shorten cable runs across a large compound. Mascom International can quote matching PoE switches and network cable with the recorder, so the whole system arrives in one delivery and one invoice.
Will the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 keep recording during KPLC power cuts?
The Dahua NVR5464-EI2 keeps recording through KPLC power cuts only when it and the PoE switches sit on a UPS. The recorder itself is rated at 13W, while each hard drive and every switch powering cameras adds to the load. Size the UPS for the whole cabinet, not the recorder alone. In areas such as Kitengela, Ruiru and Nakuru where lightning storms are common, add surge protection on the mains and on long outdoor camera cables. Our team can suggest a UPS once you share your camera count.
How many days of footage can the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 store?
The Dahua NVR5464-EI2 holds up to 64TB across four drives, which works out to about 1TB per camera when all 64 channels are in use. Exactly how many days that covers depends on each camera's resolution, frame rate and compression setting, and on whether it records all day or only on events. Cameras running H.265 with event recording stretch that space much further than continuous high-resolution recording. Send us your camera list on WhatsApp and we will work out a sensible drive plan.
Can I watch the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 cameras on my phone in Kenya?
Yes, the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 works with Dahua's DMSS app on Android and iPhone for live view, playback and alarm alerts from anywhere. Connect the recorder to Safaricom Home Fibre, Airtel Kenya fibre or another wired line with a steady upload speed. Upload matters more than download here, because the recorder sends video out to your phone. A landlord in Mombasa can check a Westlands property, or a director can view a Kisumu warehouse after hours, without driving to site.
Which AI features does the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 run on the recorder?
The Dahua NVR5464-EI2 runs face detection and recognition on 4 channels, perimeter protection on 8 channels and SMD Plus on 16 channels. Face recognition supports up to 20 face databases holding 30,000 face images, useful for staff lists and watch lists. AcuPick and video metadata each run on 4 channels, letting guards search hours of footage for a person or vehicle. Cameras with their own AI, such as ANPR number plate reading or WizSense models, add their features on top of these.
Who should buy the Dahua NVR5464-EI2 and who should skip it?
The Dahua NVR5464-EI2 suits sites planning more than 32 cameras: estates, hospitals, hotels, schools, factories and county offices that want AI search on one recorder. It is not for a home, a single shop or a small office with under 16 cameras, where it is far more box than needed. Those buyers are better served by the Dahua NVR1108HS-8P-S3/H at KSh 12,000 or the Dahua NVR4216-16P-4KS3 at KSh 27,000, both with built-in PoE and both stocked at Mascom International.
Technical Specifications
Channels and Recording
- 64 IP camera channels — one recorder covers a large estate, campus, hotel or warehouse instead of several boxes.
- 448 Mbps incoming bandwidth — room to record dozens of high-resolution camera streams at the same time.
- 448 Mbps recording and outgoing bandwidth — the same figure covers saving video and sending it out for playback.

- Full ordering code DHI-NVR5464-EI2 — quote it when matching invoices, tender documents or warranty paperwork.
Decoding and Display Output
- Decodes 40 channels at 1080p 30fps — a guard room can watch 40 full HD cameras live at once.
- Alternatively decodes 10 channels at 8MP 30fps — fewer tiles on screen, with 4K detail in each one.
- Two HDMI outputs with the main one up to 8K — drives a large wall screen in a control room.
- Secondary HDMI output up to 4K — a second monitor in the manager's office can show different cameras.
- Two VGA outputs — older monitors left over from a previous system can be reused instead of replaced.
Storage
- Four SATA hard drive bays — install one drive now and add more as the camera count grows.
- Up to 16TB per drive and 64TB in total — about 1TB per camera with all 64 channels running.
- N+M cluster support — larger sites can pair recorders so a standby unit takes over if one fails.

- Ships without hard drives — surveillance-rated drives are sold separately at Mascom International in your chosen sizes.
PoE and Network
- No built-in PoE ports — cameras connect through separate PoE switches placed close to each group of cameras.
- Two RJ45 network ports — an installer can keep camera traffic apart from the main office network.
- One RS-232 and one RS-485 port — links control keyboards, PTZ controllers or third-party systems on larger installs.
- 16 alarm inputs and 6 alarm outputs — connect door contacts, beam sensors and sirens to recording events.
- One audio input and two audio outputs — add a microphone feed or a talk-down speaker at the gate.
AI Features and Remote Viewing
- Face detection and recognition on 4 channels — match faces at gates against up to 20 separate databases.
- Stores up to 30,000 face images — enough room for staff, residents and watch lists on a large site.
- Perimeter protection on 8 channels — tripwire and intrusion rules that flag people and vehicles, not swaying branches.
- SMD Plus on 16 channels — motion alerts filtered for humans and vehicles, cutting nuisance alarms at night.
- AcuPick and video metadata on 4 channels each — search long recordings for a person or vehicle in minutes.
- DMSS app support — live view, playback and alarm alerts on Android or iPhone over any internet link.
Build and Power
- 1.5U chassis measuring 440.0 x 415.6 x 76.0 mm — wide enough for a shelf in a 19-inch equipment cabinet.
- 4.7 kg net weight — solid enough for a cabinet, light enough for one installer to lift alone.
- 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz power input — runs directly from standard Kenyan mains sockets through a UPS.
- 13W rated power draw for the recorder — low running cost before hard drives and switches are added.
- Black housing — a discreet finish that blends into server rooms, guard booths and reception cabinets.
