Hanwha PRN-1600B2-80TB 16-Channel NVR with 80TB Storage and 32MP 8K Support
The Hanwha PRN-1600B2-80TB is an enterprise-grade 16-channel network video recorder engineered for mid-to-large scale surveillance deployments. Built on Intel architecture, this NVR delivers high-resolution recording up to 32MP per channel with 8K-capable output, backed by 80TB of raw storage across eight internal SATA drives with RAID 5/6 redundancy for fault tolerance and continuous operation.
Key Features
- 16-channel input with resolution support from CIF to 32MP
- 80TB raw storage capacity with RAID 5/6 redundancy
- 250 Mbps recording bandwidth in distributed or RAID mode
- Dual H.265/H.264 compression with MJPEG support
- WiseStream adaptive bitrate technology for bandwidth optimization
- Dual-stream recording for simultaneous high and low bitrate capture
- License-free recording and playback
- Automatic Recovery Backup (ARB) for drive failure protection
Recording & Performance Capabilities
The PRN-1600B2-80TB supports 250 Mbps recording bandwidth in distributed or RAID mode, with 150 Mbps available in normal mode. Playback reaches 64 Mbps in RAID mode and 32 Mbps non-RAID. Event-triggered recording enables intelligent capture based on alarm inputs, video loss detection, camera events, and dynamic triggers. WiseStream technology provides adaptive bitrate management without sacrificing image quality, making efficient use of storage and network resources.
AI & Analytics Integration
The NVR integrates AI capabilities for advanced surveillance operations. Features include AI Search with Best Shot detection, object detection and classification, and license plate detection for compatible Wisenet AI-enabled cameras. Local fisheye dewarping (single-channel), Dynamic Layout, and SmartSearch functionality accelerate investigative workflows and reduce time-to-incident.
Reliability & Redundancy
Eight fixed internal 10TB SATA drives provide redundant storage with RAID 5/6 configurations. Automatic Recovery Backup ensures continuous recording even during individual drive failures, critical for uninterrupted surveillance in security-sensitive environments.
