Overview
The Hanwha Vision PNM-C16083RVQ is a four-channel AI multi-directional network camera designed for outdoor surveillance deployments requiring multiple viewing directions from a single camera assembly. It combines four 4MP image sensors with motorized 3.3–5.7mm varifocal lenses, infrared illumination, 120dB wide dynamic range, onboard AI analytics, and Ethernet-based PoE+ power.
Imaging and Lens System
Each channel uses a 1/2.8-inch CMOS sensor and supports up to 2592 × 1520 resolution. The motorized 3.3–5.7mm varifocal lens provides a 1.7x optical zoom range, with a horizontal field of view from 100° wide to 53° telephoto. Each channel supports independent pan, tilt, and rotation adjustment.
AI Analytics and Video Processing
The camera provides AI-based object classification for people, faces, vehicles, and license plates, with vehicle attributes including car, bus, truck, motorcycle, and bicycle types. Analytics include virtual line crossing and direction detection, virtual-area intrusion, enter/exit and loitering detection, as well as motion, defocus, tampering, audio, and sound-classification functions. WiseNR II and WiseStream III are used for image and bandwidth optimization.
Night Vision and Environmental Protection
The PNM-C16083RVQ provides integrated infrared illumination with a specified viewing distance of up to 15 meters when powered through PoE+ and up to 20 meters with HPoE. The outdoor housing is rated IP66, IK10, and NEMA 4X, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to +55°C.
Network, Storage and Security
A metal-shielded RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet interface provides network connectivity and PoE+ power. The camera supports H.265, H.264, and MJPEG video compression, ONVIF Profile S and T, multiple network protocols, and up to three streaming profiles per channel. Two microSD card slots support up to 1TB total capacity using two 512GB cards. Security features include secure boot, signed and encrypted firmware, 802.1X authentication, HTTPS, SRTP, IP-based access control, and TPM 2.0 with FIPS 140-2 Level 2.
Key Features
- Four 4MP camera channels for 16MP total imaging capability
- Motorized 3.3–5.7mm 1.7x varifocal lenses on each channel
- 120dB WDR with AI-based WiseNR II and WiseStream III processing
- Integrated IR illumination with up to 20m viewing distance using HPoE
- IP66, IK10, and NEMA 4X protection for outdoor deployments
Applications
The four-channel architecture is suited to surveillance locations where several areas or directions need coverage from one mounting position. Typical deployment considerations include outdoor facilities, entrances, perimeter areas, commercial properties, and other sites requiring multi-directional network video coverage.
DC Supplies Product Note
The PNM-C16083RVQ uses motorized varifocal lenses rather than fixed lenses, allowing each channel to be configured across its 3.3–5.7mm focal-length range. Power planning should also account for the IR distance: the specified IR range is 15m with PoE+ and 20m with HPoE.
