Our take on the Camius 4 2K Outdoor Wired Security Camera System with 8 Channel PoE NVR

The Camius 4-camera PoE kit pairs four 5MP wired cameras with an 8-channel NVR and a 4TB hard drive, so you get continuous 2K recording without subscription fees. Each camera runs on a single Ethernet cable for both power and video, and the NVR leaves four channels open for later expansion. The bullet cameras use a 3.6mm fixed lens with a 110-degree diagonal view; the dome uses a 2.8mm lens for a wider angle. It is a plug-and-play wired system for people who want local storage and no monthly cloud bill.

Questions and answers

Is this system worth it compared with a wireless kit?
If you can run cable, yes: PoE is more reliable than Wi-Fi and there are no subscription fees. Wireless kits are easier to place but suffer dropouts and often push cloud plans.
How much footage does the 4TB drive hold?
With four 5MP cameras recording continuously, expect roughly two to three weeks before the drive overwrites the oldest footage. Motion-only recording stretches that considerably.
Can I add more cameras?
Yes. The NVR has eight channels and four are free, so you can add up to four more PoE cameras, including Camius models or other ONVIF-compatible ones.
Do the cameras need separate power?
No. Each camera gets power over its Ethernet cable from the NVR, so you only run one cable per camera.
What is in the box?
Four cameras, the 8-channel NVR with a 4TB drive, Ethernet cables, camera mounting hardware and a power adapter for the NVR. A monitor and router are not included.
When is the price lowest?
Security camera kits typically dip during Black Friday, Prime Day and back-to-school sales. Check the price history chart before buying outside those windows.
