Hanwha C9022RV vs Pelco SRXF3-8360-I: Specification Comparison
The Hanwha PNM-C9022RV and Pelco SRXF3-8360-I are both 8MP fixed-lens panoramic IP cameras aimed at buyers who need wide-area coverage from a single network endpoint. The C9022RV uses four synchronized 1/2.8" CMOS sensors stitched into a 209° horizontal panorama with outdoor-rated IR illumination, while the SRXF3-8360-I uses a single fisheye lens to deliver a full 360° ceiling-mount view designed for indoor deployments. The comparison covers imaging capability, environmental and installation suitability, and VMS/analytics integration.

How do the imaging specs compare?
The C9022RV produces a stitched output at up to 5120×1568 pixels across four 1/2.8" CMOS sensors, each with a 2.8mm fixed focal length at F2.0, covering 209° horizontal and 60° vertical. Minimum illumination is 0.1 lux in color mode and 0 lux with active IR; WiseIR illumination reaches 20m (65.6ft). WDR is rated at 120dB. Maximum frame rate is 20fps at all resolutions. The SRXF3-8360-I uses a single sensor behind a 2.7mm f/2.5 fisheye lens, delivering up to 3264×2448 pixels (360° coverage) at 12.5fps full resolution. Its minimum illumination is specified at 0.10 lux; no IR illumination is listed in the provided specs. WDR is present but no dB rating is provided in the supplied data.
In frame-rate terms the C9022RV delivers 20fps versus the SRXF3-8360-I's 12.5fps at full resolution — a meaningful difference for motion capture. The C9022RV's quad-sensor architecture achieves a wider stitched pixel count (5120×1568 = ~8MP panoramic strip) while the SRXF3-8360-I's 3264×2448 = ~8MP circular fisheye. The C9022RV adds active IR for zero-lux operation; the SRXF3-8360-I's provided specs list no IR emitter, making it dependent on ambient light.
What about installation and environment?
The C9022RV is rated IP66 and IK10, NEMA 250 Type 4X, and is specified for outdoor use across an operating temperature range of -40°C to +55°C (-40°F to +131°F). It draws up to 24.5W and accepts PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at, Class 4) or 12VDC. The unit weighs 2,900g (6.39lb) and measures Ø253×170mm; it is compatible with a 3/4" (M25) conduit knockout and standard gang boxes. The SRXF3-8360-I carries an IP52 rating (splash-resistant, not rain-proof), IK10 impact rating, and is specified as an indoor camera only. Its operating temperature range is -10°C to +60°C. It is powered by PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at, Class 3), drawing less power than the C9022RV; exact wattage is not stated in the provided specs. Dimensions are listed as 153.5×153.5×71.3mm with a wall-mount weight of 1.001kg (2.21lb). The C9022RV is substantially heavier and bulkier, reflecting its quad-sensor housing and outdoor construction.
Which fits your VMS and analytics better?
The C9022RV supports ONVIF Profile S, G, T, and M, plus Hanwha's proprietary SUNAPI and Wisenet SDK. On-board AI analytics include object classification (person/vehicle), virtual line crossing with direction, virtual area loitering/intrusion/enter/exit, and defocus detection, all processed on the camera's AI engine. Motion detection supports up to eight 8-point polygonal zones. Edge storage is provided by dual Micro SD/SDHC/SDXC slots supporting up to 1TB (2×512GB). Audio includes a selectable mic/line input and a line output. Video compression covers H.265, H.264 (Main/Baseline/High), and MJPEG, with WiseStream II/III smart codec and CBR/VBR bitrate control.
The SRXF3-8360-I supports ONVIF Profile S and Profile T. Analytics are described as 'Pelco Smart Analytics with 8 behaviors' in the provided specs; specific behavior types beyond that count are not detailed in the supplied data. The provided specs reference microphone support and H.264 compression; H.265 is listed in some supplemental fields but the primary spec sheet entry states H.264 only. MicroSD edge storage is listed as supported, though capacity limits are not specified in the provided data. The C9022RV's broader ONVIF profile support (adding G and M) and its explicit dual-slot 1TB edge storage capacity give it a documented integration advantage on those dimensions.
Which should you choose: the C9022RV or the SRXF3-8360-I?
Our take: The C9022RV is the stronger choice when the deployment is outdoor, requires zero-lux IR coverage, or demands richer AI analytics and VMS integration. Three concrete spec deltas drive that conclusion: (1) the C9022RV is rated IP66/NEMA 4X with an operating floor of -40°C, versus the SRXF3-8360-I's indoor-only IP52 and -10°C minimum — a fundamental outdoor vs. indoor distinction; (2) the C9022RV delivers 20fps versus 12.5fps at full resolution, and adds active WiseIR illumination to 20m where the SRXF3-8360-I lists no IR; (3) the C9022RV specifies 120dB WDR, dual-slot 1TB edge storage, and ONVIF Profiles S/G/T/M versus the SRXF3-8360-I's unrated WDR, unspecified storage capacity, and Profiles S/T only. The SRXF3-8360-I is the appropriate pick for indoor ceiling-mount 360° coverage on a Pelco VMS with a lighter PoE budget (Class 3 vs. Class 4) and a 5-year warranty versus the C9022RV's 3-year term.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which should you choose: the C9022RV or the SRXF3-8360-I?
The C9022RV is the stronger choice when the deployment is outdoor, requires zero-lux IR coverage, or demands richer AI analytics and VMS integration. Three concrete spec deltas drive that conclusion: (1) the C9022RV is rated IP66/NEMA 4X with an operating floor of -40°C, versus the SRXF3-8360-I's indoor-only IP52 and -10°C minimum — a fundamental outdoor vs. indoor distinction; (2) the C9022RV delivers 20fps versus 12.5fps at full resolution, and adds active WiseIR illumination to 20m where the SRXF3-8360-I lists no IR; (3) the C9022RV specifies 120dB WDR, dual-slot 1TB edge storage, and ONVIF Profiles S/G/T/M versus the SRXF3-8360-I's unrated WDR, unspecified storage capacity, and Profiles S/T only. The SRXF3-8360-I is the appropriate pick for indoor ceiling-mount 360° coverage on a Pelco VMS with a lighter PoE budget (Class 3 vs. Class 4) and a 5-year warranty versus the C9022RV's 3-year term.
Is the C9022RV or SRXF3-8360-I better for low-light performance?
Both cameras specify 0.10 lux as their minimum color illumination. However, the C9022RV also lists 0 lux operation when its WiseIR illuminators (rated to 20m / 65.6ft) are active, allowing it to image in complete darkness. The SRXF3-8360-I's provided specs list no IR illuminator, so it is dependent on ambient light at 0.10 lux. For scenes where ambient lighting cannot be guaranteed, the C9022RV has a documented advantage.
Can the SRXF3-8360-I be used outdoors instead of the C9022RV?
No — not based on the provided specifications. The SRXF3-8360-I carries an IP52 ingress rating (protected against vertically dripping water only) and is explicitly classified as an indoor camera with a -10°C lower operating limit. The C9022RV is rated IP66 (dust-tight, jet-water resistant), NEMA 250 Type 4X, and operates down to -40°C, making it suitable for outdoor installation. Substituting the SRXF3-8360-I in an outdoor application would void its environmental specification.
Which camera gives a true 360° view — the C9022RV or the SRXF3-8360-I?
The SRXF3-8360-I delivers a true 360° circular fisheye view from a single ceiling-mount lens, with no blind spot directly beneath the camera. The C9022RV covers 209° horizontal (and 360° pan range mechanically for aiming) using four stitched 2.8mm sensors, leaving approximately 151° of horizontal arc uncovered. For full-perimeter 360° situational awareness from one camera position, the SRXF3-8360-I is the appropriate choice — provided the environment is indoor and adequately lit.
