Suggestion for highest compatible other brand camera for TpLink NVR

Model: VIGI NVR1004H  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I recently bought 4ch TP LINK NVR along with 5 Port Gigabit POE+ switch from TpLink.
But i got to know TP Link isnt currently compliant with new STQC norms in India and I am unable to buy its cameras.

So meanwhile, in order to ensure safety of my house, I have been forced to buy atleast 1 network camera from other brand until TP Link becomes available. I read about ONVIF capability of this NVR and TP Link cameras and if i am not wrong TP LINK NVR1004H supports profile G, S, T and so does most of TP LINK's own camera models.

Can anyone suggest best compatible camera from any other brand in India which can truly support motion detection and in app alerts, because thats the most important feature for me, when i am outside my home.

From my finding this one from CP Plus has ONVIF G, S, T profiles
Model: cp-unc-da41l3c-d-q

Hi @misTx 

 

Thanks for reaching out to TP-Link Business Forums.

 

Thank you very much for your interest in and support of TP-Link VIGI products. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding regarding the current situation.

While it is correct that TP-Link VIGI devices are not yet certified under the latest STQC requirements in India, we would like to reassure you that all VIGI products comply with major international standards and certifications, including CE, FCC, VCCI, KC, BSMI, NTRA, ONVIF, and HDMI.
This means our products fully meet global industry standards for quality, safety, and interoperability.

With respect to compatibility, all VIGI NVRs (including the NVR1008H) operate as ONVIF clients and support Profile S and Profile T. In general, if a third-party IP camera also supports ONVIF Profile S/T, basic functions such as live view and recording should work, and motion detection event reporting is expected to function under standard ONVIF implementation.

However, please note that we are unable to fully guarantee the compatibility or implementation quality of third-party cameras. Even if a camera claims ONVIF support, differences in implementation may lead to unexpected behavior. If a third-party IPC claims compatibility but does not work properly with your VIGI NVR, you are welcome to contact us for further assistance and troubleshooting.

Regarding the CP Plus you mentioned, we have previously received reports of compatibility issues between certain CP Plus cameras and VIGI NVRs. The root cause is related to non-standard delimiter usage in their ONVIF implementation, which may result in failures when adding the device to the NVR. Our development team is aware of this issue and is working on improvements, with planned optimizations in future firmware releases.

If you have already purchased the NVR, we kindly ask you to confirm the hardware version of your device so that we can provide more precise guidance and support.

Once again, thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

Thanks for reply,

Yes I have already purchased the NVR and GigabitPOE from TPLINK. And its sitting around my house since 1 month. As i have yet to buy a compatible camera. I actually dont really care about STQC certification since i trust TP Link, so if i can buy Non-STQC TP Link IP cams too in India, that would appreciated as well.
Otherwise I have to atleast buy 1 camera meanwhile from any other brand that u can recommend for best compatibility.
As i want smart events to work as well like Human detection and if not I want atleast basic motion tracking and alerting on Vigi App, when i am outside my home.

Currently since its not connected its on its stock version.
