Hanwha Bridge-301 Wisenet SKY NVR

The Hanwha Bridge-301 is a compact, rack-mountable network video recorder designed for small- to mid-scale surveillance deployments. Built on embedded Linux and engineered for reliability, this 1U appliance delivers efficient video storage and multi-camera management in a footprint optimized for data centers and server rooms.

Key Features

• Supports up to 15 cameras at 1MP or 12 cameras at 4MP resolution
• 1TB hard drive with 800GB usable capacity for extended video retention
• Dual gigabit ethernet ports for redundant network connectivity
• Multiple video output options: VGA and DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort (varies by model)
• Cloud analytics support for up to 5 concurrent streams
• Embedded Linux operating system for stability and security
• Compact 1U rack mount form factor (16.81" x 9.88" x 1.75")
• Low power consumption: 50-120W depending on configuration

Technical Specifications

The Bridge-301 features dual gigabit ethernet RJ-45 ports for flexible network integration and includes 2x USB 3.0 ports for external storage and peripherals. Video outputs vary by model: the 301 provides VGA and DVI, while 401 and 501 models offer VGA with HDMI and DisplayPort respectively. The 1TB spinning hard drive delivers 800GB of usable storage for video archiving. The unit operates across standard AC input (100-240V) with a compact internal power supply ranging from 50W to 120W.

Operating conditions are optimized for typical data center environments: 32°F to 95°F (0°C to 35°C) with 0-70% non-condensing humidity. The appliance includes rack mount brackets and a power cord, ready for immediate deployment. Indicator lights for power and disk activity provide quick system status visibility.

Compliance & Reliability

The Bridge-301 meets stringent international standards including FCC, UL, PSE, CE, CCC (S&E), REACH, RoHS, and C-Tick certifications. NDAA compliance ensures suitability for federal and government deployments.

Applications

Ideal for retail stores, office buildings, warehouses, and small campuses requiring centralized video storage and multi-camera coordination. The compact 1U form factor makes it perfect for co-location in existing server infrastructure, while dual ethernet ports enable redundant network paths for mission-critical surveillance environments.

The Bridge-301 represents practical surveillance infrastructure for organizations transitioning from standalone DVRs to network-based systems. The ability to scale from 12 to 15 cameras across 1MP and 4MP mixed deployments provides flexibility without over-provisioning. The embedded Linux platform eliminates licensing overhead while maintaining security posture through certification compliance.

Dual gigabit ethernet and variable video output options (VGA/DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort) accommodate diverse integration scenarios. The 800GB usable storage capacity supports approximately 4-7 days of continuous recording for a 12-camera 4MP deployment, depending on bitrate and compression settings—critical for organizations with strict retention policies. For operations requiring extended archiving, the dual ethernet ports enable network-attached storage expansion.

The low power envelope (50-120W) reduces cooling costs in data center environments, while the 1U rack mount form factor maximizes space efficiency. Consider the Bridge-301 for growing organizations seeking a scalable, standards-compliant foundation for Wisenet camera ecosystem integration.
