8K NVR (Intel based), 12TB RAW, 8 channels

Hanwha XRN-820S Overview

The Hanwha XRN-820S is an 8-channel network video recorder engineered for enterprise surveillance deployments requiring 8K/32-megapixel camera support. This Intel-based NVR delivers 120 Mbps maximum recording bandwidth and scales from CIF up to 32MP resolution, making it suitable for high-resolution multi-camera installations in corporate, retail, and infrastructure environments. The XRN-820S combines hardware encoding efficiency with flexible compression standards and intelligent storage management for 24/7 security operations.

Hanwha XRN-820S Key Features

• 32-Megapixel Camera Support: Accommodates up to 8 network cameras at resolutions from CIF to 32MP, enabling forensic-grade detail capture and wide area surveillance in a single 8-channel recorder.
• 120 Mbps Recording Bandwidth: Processes simultaneous streams from multiple high-resolution cameras without bottlenecking, ensuring continuous capture at maximum frame rates across all channels.
• H.265, H.264, and MJPEG Compression: Multi-codec support reduces storage consumption and optimizes network utilization; H.265 delivers bandwidth efficiency for high-resolution streams while maintaining backward compatibility with H.264 and MJPEG sources.
• Dual Monitor Video Output: HDMI and VGA outputs support FHD clone mode (dual monitors simultaneously) or UHD single monitor, with dynamic layout and virtual channel view for flexible command-center configurations.
• Advanced Local Playback Resolution: Decodes 32MP at 15 fps (H.265 only), 12MP at 30 fps (H.265 only), 8.3MP at up to 50 fps, and 1080p at up to 240 fps locally; supports FHD clone mode (up to 16 divisions) and FHD expand mode (up to 9 divisions).
• Intelligent Recording Modes: Normal, dual stream, scheduled (continuous/event), event-triggered (with pre/post buffer), and bookmark functions for forensic investigation and operational efficiency.
• Event Trigger and Action Framework: Responds to alarm inputs, video loss, camera events (sensor, motion detection, video analytics, defocus detection, audio), dynamic events, and user events with actions including email alerts, event push notifications, PTZ presets, alarm outputs, buzzer control, FTP upload, and SUNAPI commands.
• ONVIF and SUNAPI Protocol Support: Standards-based camera integration ensures compatibility with third-party IP cameras and enables seamless VMS integration.
• Redundancy and Failover: ARB (Automatic Redundancy Backup) with N+1 failover and dynamic event recording for mission-critical surveillance continuity.
• WiseStream AI Metadata Search: Leverages intelligent metadata indexing and Wisenet AI analytics support for rapid event search and pattern detection across recorded footage.
• 12TB Raw Storage: Maximum 2 internal HDD bays supporting up to 12TB total capacity for extended retention of high-resolution content.

Hanwha XRN-820S Integration & Compatibility

The XRN-820S operates on embedded Linux and supports ONVIF and SUNAPI protocols for seamless integration with ONVIF-compliant IP cameras and third-party video management systems. The recorder accommodates up to 4 simultaneous local and remote users (1 local, 3 remote) with independent playback of up to 32 channels per user (8 channels local, 8 channels per remote user). Maximum playback bandwidth is 32 Mbps. Fisheye dewarping is available with resolution support from CIF to 32MP, and playback controls include fast/slow forward/backward navigation and frame-by-frame stepping. Search functionality provides date/time calendar selection, event list filtering, text search, and smart search capabilities.
