Hanwha XNB-6005 2MP Low-Light Box Camera

Hanwha XNB-6005 2MP Low-Light Indoor Fixed Box IP Camera

The Hanwha XNB-6005 is a professional-grade 2MP indoor box camera designed for surveillance environments demanding exceptional low-light performance and intelligent video analytics. With a 1/2" CMOS sensor and advanced imaging technologies, this camera delivers clear, detailed footage across challenging lighting conditions—from dimly lit corridors to brightly lit lobbies with dynamic light shifts.

Key Features

• 2MP resolution (1920x1080) with up to 60fps H.265/H.264 streaming
• Exceptional low-light capability: 0.006 Lux color / 0.0006 Lux B&W (F1.2, 1/30sec)
• Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) with 150dB for balanced imaging in high-contrast scenes
• Advanced video analytics including motion detection, face detection, and digital auto-tracking
• H.265/H.264 compression with WiseStream II smart codec for efficient bandwidth and storage
• Microphone and speaker support for two-way audio communication
• Dual SD card slots (up to 512GB) for edge storage and local recording
• IP66-rated sealed design for reliable indoor installation
• Multiple mounting options: C-mount and CS-mount lens compatibility

Technical Highlights

The XNB-6005 features a 1/2" CMOS imaging device with selectable resolutions ranging from 320x240 to 1920x1080, ensuring flexibility for various bandwidth and storage requirements. The camera supports multiple video compression standards—H.265, H.264 (Main/Baseline/High profile), and MJPEG—with bitrate control via CBR or VBR modes. Up to 10 streaming profiles enable simultaneous viewing by multiple users across unicast and multicast protocols.

Advanced imaging technologies include automatic day/night switching (ICR), backlight compensation (BLC/HLC), electronic image stabilization with built-in gyro sensor, and defog support. The camera supports up to 8 motion detection zones with polygonal masking and 32 privacy masking areas in multiple colors or mosaic patterns. Built-in video analytics detect defocus, fog, tampering, loitering, and audio events with configurable alarm triggers.

Network connectivity is comprehensive, supporting IPv4/IPv6, ONVIF Profile S/G/T, and Hanwha's Wisenet open platform API. Security features include HTTPS/SSL encryption, IP address filtering, 802.1X authentication, and user access logging. The camera operates on PoE (IEEE 802.3af Class 3) with minimal 8.5W maximum power consumption.

Applications

Ideal for office buildings, retail spaces, educational facilities, and corporate campuses where reliable surveillance in varying indoor lighting conditions is essential. The compact form factor (73.1W x 66.6H x 147.8D mm) suits ceiling or wall mounting in entry points, hallways, waiting areas, and conference rooms.

The XNB-6005 represents a balanced approach to indoor surveillance, prioritizing low-light sensitivity and intelligent analytics over wide-angle coverage. Its exceptional minimum illumination (0.006 Lux color mode) outperforms standard box cameras, making it particularly suited for facilities with inconsistent or dim ambient lighting. The 150dB WDR handles backlit scenarios where windows or bright signage create challenging contrast ratios.

H.265 codec support is a significant advantage for organizations deploying large camera networks; bitrate savings of 40-50% compared to H.264 directly reduce storage and bandwidth costs. WiseStream II smart codec further optimizes streams by allocating processing power to areas of interest.

The dual audio channels (mic in/line in/built-in mic options), combined with two-way speaker output, enable voice-down capability for retail or access control scenarios. Edge storage via dual SD slots provides local backup independent of NVR infrastructure, improving resilience.

For integrators, ONVIF Profile S/G/T compliance ensures compatibility with third-party management platforms, while Hanwha's proprietary Wisenet API offers deeper feature access. The fixed box design without motorized optics reduces mechanical failure risk compared to PTZ alternatives, lowering total cost of ownership in stable deployment scenarios.
