Hanwha XRN-6420RB2 64-Channel 8K NVR 48TB
The Hanwha XRN-6420RB2 is an enterprise-grade 64-channel 8K NVR powered by Intel 12th generation processors, purpose-built for large-scale surveillance deployments demanding high-resolution recording, massive storage capacity, and mission-critical reliability. With support for 32MP maximum resolution, H.265 compression, and up to 520 Mbps recording bandwidth, this NVR excels in complex multi-camera environments while delivering flexible deployment options through dual-stream recording and advanced RAID architectures.
Key Features
- 64-channel recording with 32MP maximum resolution support
- 520 Mbps recording bandwidth in distributed mode
- Dual-stream recording for simultaneous high-resolution and low-bandwidth archival
- H.265, H.264, and MJPEG codec support for optimal compression and compatibility
- Up to 48TB pre-configured storage (8 SATA HDD bays, expandable to 80TB)
- Dual HDMI display outputs with independent resolution control
- RAID 5/6 data redundancy with N+1 automatic failover recovery
- Two-way audio support for interactive surveillance
- PoE compatibility for streamlined network integration
Recording & Performance Capabilities
The XRN-6420RB2 delivers flexible recording modes including normal, dual-stream, scheduled, and event-triggered capture. Recording bandwidth reaches 520 Mbps in distributed mode, enabling simultaneous capture across all 64 channels. H.265 compression significantly reduces bandwidth and storage requirements compared to H.264, while maintaining backward compatibility. At maximum resolution (32MP), the system records at 15 fps H.265; full 64-channel 30 fps operation scales down to CIF resolution. Playback bandwidth of up to 200 Mbps supports rapid forensic review and investigation workflows.
Storage Architecture & Data Protection
Eight SATA HDD bays accommodate drives up to 10TB each, providing 80TB maximum raw capacity. The pre-configured 48TB model comes equipped and ready for deployment. RAID 5 and RAID 6 redundancy protect against single and dual drive failures, while ARB (Automatic Recovery Backup) with N+1 failover ensures continuous operation during hardware failures. iSCSI support enables external storage expansion and backup integration for enhanced disaster recovery capabilities.
Display & Connectivity
Dual HDMI outputs deliver independent resolution control: HDMI 1 supports 3840×2160 at 30 Hz, while HDMI 2 provides additional display flexibility. Network connectivity and PoE compatibility enable streamlined installation in IP-based environments. The Intel-based architecture ensures robust performance and future software compatibility.
Ideal Applications
- Large enterprise campus surveillance
- Transportation hubs and critical infrastructure
- Multi-site surveillance with centralized management
- Government and high-security facilities
- Retail chains and distribution centers

The XRN-6420RB2 represents the premium tier of NVR architecture, prioritizing scalability and redundancy for mission-critical deployments. The Intel 12th gen processor foundation ensures computational headroom for analytics integration and future feature expansion. H.265 codec adoption delivers genuine bandwidth and storage savings—particularly valuable at 32MP resolution where codec efficiency directly impacts total cost of ownership.
The RAID 6 + N+1 failover combination eliminates single points of failure in storage, critical for 24/7 surveillance environments where downtime equals liability. Pre-configured 48TB storage option streamlines procurement and deployment timelines. This system targets enterprises where surveillance is operational infrastructure, not optional—ideal for organizations managing dozens of cameras across multiple sites or requiring sub-millisecond failover.
