Hanwha PNM-7082RVD vs i-PRO X35402-F2LM: Specification Comparison
Both the Hanwha PNM-7082RVD and the i-PRO WV-X35402-F2LM are outdoor-rated fixed dome IP cameras targeting the 4MP-class surveillance market. The Hanwha delivers its 4MP total output across two discrete 2MP sensors with a motorized varifocal lens, while the i-PRO uses a single 4MP sensor with a fixed 2.4mm lens. Both carry IP66/IK10 ratings and support H.265 compression, making them a legitimate cross-shop for integrators evaluating outdoor dome performance, analytics depth, and lifecycle security posture.

How do the imaging specs compare?
The PNM-7082RVD uses two 1/2.8" CMOS sensors, each delivering 2MP (1920×1080) at 30fps, with a motorized varifocal lens spanning 3–6mm (2×) and an aperture of F2.2 (wide) to F3.1 (tele). Its horizontal field of view adjusts from 107° (wide) to 56° (tele), giving installers optical zoom flexibility without physically repositioning the camera. IR illumination reaches 15m typical and 25m scene-dependent. Minimum illumination is 0.035 lux color and 0 lux IR, and WDR is rated at 120dB (Hanwha extremeWDR). DORI detect range is 28.4m wide / 72.2m tele.
The WV-X35402-F2LM uses a single approx. 1/2.8" CMOS sensor delivering native 4MP at resolutions up to 2560×1440 (16:9) or 2048×1536 (4:3) at 25/30fps. Its fixed 2.4mm lens yields a wide 121° horizontal field of view with no optical zoom. Minimum illumination is 0.07 lux color and 0.06 lux B&W (0 lux with IR), and IR reach is specified at 14m. Dynamic range is rated at 132dB maximum (Super Dynamic on, Level 31). DORI detect is 29.0m. The i-PRO's single-sensor 4MP output provides higher native pixel density in a single image plane; the Hanwha's dual-sensor architecture trades single-image resolution for optical zoom range.
What about installation and environment?
Both cameras carry IP66 and IK10 ratings and NEMA 4X compliance, and both are rated for operation at -40°C. The PNM-7082RVD's upper operating limit is +55°C; the WV-X35402-F2LM extends to +60°C. The Hanwha powers via PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at, Class 4, max 17W typical 12.5W) and connects via a standard metal-shielded RJ-45. The i-PRO requires only standard PoE (802.3af-class, max 8.6W) and uses an M12 connector — a locking industrial-grade interface suited to transit and mobile platforms. The i-PRO also carries railway certifications (EN50155, JIS E 5006, IEC62236, EN50121, IEC61373, EN45545) and a wind-resistance rating of up to 40 m/s (approx. 89 mph) not stated for the Hanwha.
Physically, the Hanwha is substantially larger: 215mm × 135mm × 93.2mm and 1,330g, with conduit knock-outs for 1/2" (M20) and compatibility with single, double, 4" octagon, and 4" square gang boxes. The i-PRO is markedly more compact at 109mm × 53mm × 119mm and approximately 475g, reflecting its on-board compact dome positioning. The Hanwha's pan/tilt/rotate range (0–355° / 0–78° / 0–180°) offers broader physical aim adjustment; the i-PRO's yaw/tilt adjustment is ±45° pan / 0°–90° tilt / ±90° yaw. The Hanwha includes a micro USB Type B video-out port (1280×720) for on-site focus aid during installation.
Which fits your VMS and analytics better?
The PNM-7082RVD supports ONVIF Profile S and T, Hanwha SUNAPI (HTTP API), and an open platform. It streams up to 10 configurable profiles and supports 20 unicast users simultaneously. Edge storage is via a single microSD/SDHC/SDXC slot up to 512GB. Onboard analytics include motion detection, virtual line/direction, intrusion detection, and loitering. Audio input and output are available only via the optional SPM-4210 I/O box; alarm I/O similarly requires that accessory. The camera carries TPM 2.0 (FIPS 140-2 Level 2) hardware security and 802.1X authentication (EAP-TLS, EAP-LEAP, EAP-PEAP MSCHAPv2).
The WV-X35402-F2LM supports ONVIF Profile G, M, S, and T — adding Profile G (on-camera recording management) and Profile M (metadata/analytics). It supports up to 14 simultaneous users and edge storage via microSD/SDHC/SDXC up to 512GB. AI analytics cover 7 detection types and include AI Sound Classification (gunshot, yell, vehicle horn, glass break) plus Scene Change Detection — capabilities not listed for the Hanwha. Built-in audio is confirmed; the Hanwha requires an add-on. Security is rated FIPS 140-2 Level 3 (one level above the Hanwha's Level 2) with brute-force protection and alteration detection also specified. The i-PRO also lists SFTP and MQTT protocol support not present in the Hanwha's protocol list.
Which should you choose: the PNM-7082RVD or the X35402-F2LM?
Our take: The WV-X35402-F2LM is the stronger choice when the installation demands native 4MP single-image resolution, lower power draw, built-in audio, deeper AI analytics, or railway/transit certification. Key spec deltas: the i-PRO's dynamic range reaches 132dB versus the Hanwha's 120dB; it draws a maximum 8.6W on standard PoE versus the Hanwha's 17W PoE+; and its FIPS 140-2 Level 3 hardware security exceeds the Hanwha's Level 2. The PNM-7082RVD is the stronger choice where optical zoom adjustment without lens swaps is operationally valuable (3–6mm motorized varifocal vs. fixed 2.4mm), where dual-sensor wide-area coverage is specified, or where the project requires Hanwha SUNAPI/WiseStream II ecosystem integration. The i-PRO's M12 connector and railway certifications make it the clear selection for vehicle-mounted or transit-platform deployments; the Hanwha's larger housing and standard RJ-45 suit conventional fixed-site outdoor installations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which should you choose: the PNM-7082RVD or the X35402-F2LM?
The WV-X35402-F2LM is the stronger choice when the installation demands native 4MP single-image resolution, lower power draw, built-in audio, deeper AI analytics, or railway/transit certification. Key spec deltas: the i-PRO's dynamic range reaches 132dB versus the Hanwha's 120dB; it draws a maximum 8.6W on standard PoE versus the Hanwha's 17W PoE+; and its FIPS 140-2 Level 3 hardware security exceeds the Hanwha's Level 2. The PNM-7082RVD is the stronger choice where optical zoom adjustment without lens swaps is operationally valuable (3–6mm motorized varifocal vs. fixed 2.4mm), where dual-sensor wide-area coverage is specified, or where the project requires Hanwha SUNAPI/WiseStream II ecosystem integration. The i-PRO's M12 connector and railway certifications make it the clear selection for vehicle-mounted or transit-platform deployments; the Hanwha's larger housing and standard RJ-45 suit conventional fixed-site outdoor installations.
Is the PNM-7082RVD or WV-X35402-F2LM better for low-light performance?
On minimum illumination, the Hanwha PNM-7082RVD specifies 0.035 lux color versus the i-PRO's 0.07 lux color — giving the Hanwha an edge in very dim color scenes. Both reach 0 lux with IR active. However, the i-PRO's IR reach is specified at 14m while the Hanwha's is rated 15m typical and up to 25m depending on scene. For wide dynamic range in backlit conditions, the i-PRO's 132dB maximum Super Dynamic rating exceeds the Hanwha's 120dB extremeWDR.
Can either camera be used on a train or transit vehicle?
Only the i-PRO WV-X35402-F2LM carries explicit railway and vehicle certifications: EN50155, JIS E 5006, IEC62236, EN50121, IEC61373, and EN45545. It also specifies a wind-resistance rating of up to 40 m/s. No equivalent railway or vehicle certifications are listed in the Hanwha PNM-7082RVD specifications.
Does either camera include built-in audio without additional accessories?
The i-PRO WV-X35402-F2LM includes built-in audio support as specified, including AI Sound Classification for gunshot, yell, vehicle horn, and glass break. The Hanwha PNM-7082RVD requires the optional SPM-4210 I/O box for both audio input and audio output; native audio is not available without that accessory.
