Hanwha WRN-1632 Key Features
- 32-Channel Capacity: Supports up to 32 concurrent IP camera channels with 250 Mbps maximum recording throughput, enabling full-rate ingest from multiple high-resolution sources without frame loss.
- 4 Professional WAVE Licenses Included: Ships with 4 pre-activated Professional licenses for the Wisenet WAVE platform, allowing immediate deployment without separate license procurement.
- 18TB Raw Internal Storage: Four fixed SATA HDDs provide up to 10TB per drive (40TB maximum expandable capacity), with this configuration delivering 18TB usable capacity for extended retention periods.
- Dual 1 Gigabit Ethernet NICs: Separate WAN and LAN network interfaces (RJ-45, 1 Gbps each) for network isolation, redundancy, and bandwidth optimization in multi-camera installations.
- H.265, H.264, and MJPEG Codec Support: Multi-codec architecture provides bitrate flexibility and backward compatibility with legacy and modern IP cameras, with H.265 enabling 50% bitrate reduction versus H.264 at equivalent quality.
- Wisenet WAVE Client, Mobile, and Cloud Sync: Centralized platform supports Windows/Mac desktop clients, iOS/Android mobile apps, and cloud-based video access for remote monitoring and management across distributed locations.
- AI Metadata Support: Native integration with AI-powered metadata (objects, people, vehicles, behaviors) enables advanced search, filtering, and intelligent alert workflows without third-party integrations.
- Dual Display Outputs: HDMI (1) and DisplayPort (1) monitor connections support simultaneous local configuration and basic monitoring interfaces; USB mouse included for intuitive system control.
- Embedded Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Operating System: Linux-based OS with long-term support provides security updates, stability, and reduced dependency on Windows licensing.
- Intel Quad-Core CPU with 8GB DDR4 RAM: 32GB eMMC OS storage and dedicated processing power handle simultaneous playback, analytics, and live streaming without performance degradation.
- Compact 2U Rackmount Form Factor: 440mm wide × 89.8mm high × 428.4mm deep chassis fits standard 19-inch server racks; includes rack mount brackets and weighs 5.47 kg for easy installation in control rooms and data centers.
- Low Power Consumption: 80W typical power draw (100–240 VAC, 50/60 Hz) minimizes heat generation and reduces operational costs in 24/7 surveillance environments.
