Hanwha QRN-830S-4TB 8CH PoE NVR with 4TB Storage

The Hanwha QRN-830S-4TB is a compact 8-channel network video recorder engineered for mid-scale surveillance installations requiring integrated power delivery and local storage. This PoE-enabled NVR consolidates eight camera connections, 65W power budget, and 4TB of built-in capacity into a single appliance, eliminating the need for external PoE injectors and reducing installation complexity. Ideal for security integrators deploying mixed-resolution camera environments, the QRN-830S-4TB supports up to 8MP streams from Hanwha Wisenet and standards-compliant ONVIF cameras.

Key Features

• 8 Integrated PoE Ports (65W Budget): Built-in 802.3af PoE power delivery across all 8 ports enables simultaneous camera connection and power without external equipment, reducing cabling and footprint.
• 8MP Resolution Support: Records and decodes up to 8 megapixel streams in real-time across all channels, supporting resolution range from CIF to 8MP for flexible camera compatibility.
• 4TB Local Storage: Substantial onboard capacity accommodates extended retention periods for mid-scale deployments with continuous or event-based recording schedules.
• 80 Mbps Recording Bandwidth: Maximum throughput sustains simultaneous high-resolution multi-camera recording without performance degradation.
• H.265, H.264, and MJPEG Codec Support: Multiple compression standards optimize storage efficiency and video quality across diverse camera types.
• Dual-Stream Recording: Supports simultaneous Normal, Dual Stream, Schedule (Continuous/Event), Event (Pre/Post), and Bookmark recording modes for flexible operational workflows.

Technical Specifications

• Video Compression: H.265 (primary), H.264, MJPEG
• Maximum Resolution: 8MP per channel
• Network Connectivity: 8× RJ45 PoE ports (802.3af)
• Architecture: Embedded Linux

Applications

The QRN-830S-4TB is suited for retail locations, small offices, light industrial facilities, and distributed branch deployments where simplified installation and compact form factor are priorities. The integrated PoE architecture reduces total cost of ownership by eliminating external power infrastructure while maintaining professional-grade recording capability across eight channels.

Perspective based on aggregated IP Security Depot and affiliated engineering team experience.

The QRN-830S-4TB balances affordability with functionality in the compact NVR segment. The 65W PoE budget is adequate for eight cameras operating at standard power consumption levels, though high-power PTZ or specialty cameras may require external supplemental power. The H.265 codec implementation is critical for maximizing the 4TB capacity at 8MP resolution; without efficient compression, retention periods would be significantly reduced.

The dual-stream architecture and flexible recording modes support both continuous monitoring and event-driven architectures, making this unit adaptable to various deployment scenarios. System integrators should verify camera ONVIF compliance and PoE power draw summation before deployment to ensure compatibility and reliable operation.
