Hanwha WRN-816S-16TB Overview
The Hanwha WRN-816S-16TB is a compact 1U rackmount Network Video Recorder built on Intel architecture with Wisenet WAVE platform pre-installed. Designed for small-to-medium IP surveillance deployments, this NVR integrates eight onboard PoE/PoE+ ports with a 100W power budget, eliminating the need for separate PoE injectors and streamlining edge-based camera integration. It provides 150 Mbps maximum recording throughput and supports up to 16 camera channels, making it ideal for integrators deploying mixed-resolution IP camera systems in enterprise or retail environments.
Hanwha WRN-816S-16TB Key Features
- 16-Channel Network Camera Support — Accommodates up to 16 simultaneous IP camera streams with 150 Mbps recording throughput, enabling deployments of mixed codec streams across standard and HD-resolution cameras.
- Integrated PoE Power Delivery — Eight PoE/PoE+ ports with 100W total power budget provide direct camera power at the recorder, reducing field wiring complexity and eliminating the need for separate injectors in typical small-site deployments.
- Dual GbE Network Interfaces — Two 1 Gbps Ethernet NICs enable dedicated camera acquisition and management/cloud connectivity, isolating recording traffic from administrative access.
- Multi-Codec Compression — H.265, H.264, and MJPEG support allows native recording from diverse camera models and optimizes storage efficiency through selectable compression profiles.
- AI Metadata Support — Wisenet WAVE platform processes and indexes AI-generated metadata from compatible cameras, enabling forensic search and automated alerting on objects, people, and behavioral events.
- 20TB Maximum Internal Storage — Two SATA HDD slots (up to 10TB per drive) provide on-premises recording capacity; supports standard 3.5-inch surveillance HDDs for extended retention periods.
- Wisenet WAVE Client and Mobile Access — Includes professional licenses for Wave client-based configuration and monitoring, plus cloud synchronization capabilities for remote access via smartphone and web interfaces.
- Dual Display Outputs — HDMI (1) and DisplayPort (1) connectors enable simultaneous local monitoring for live view, playback, and system configuration without requiring external KVMs.
- Compact 1U Rackmount Form Factor — 370 x 50.7 x 320 mm chassis fits standard 19-inch server racks with included mounting brackets, reducing physical footprint in network rooms or edge locations.
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Operating System — Embedded Linux-based OS provides system stability and security baseline with long-term vendor support, minimizing unscheduled maintenance.
- Industrial-Grade Thermal Management — Operates across 0°C to 40°C ambient temperature range with 20%–85% relative humidity tolerance, suitable for non-refrigerated indoor installations, equipment rooms, and sheltered outdoor enclosures.
- USB Connectivity — Front USB 2.0 ports (2) and rear USB 3.0 ports (2) support direct backup drives, keyboard input, and external management adapters.
