Overview
Hanwha QND-6012R1 2MP Indoor IR Dome Camera
The Hanwha QND-6012R1 is a compact 2MP fixed-lens dome camera engineered for discreet indoor surveillance in retail, office, and lobby environments. Built around a 1/2.8" 2MP CMOS sensor, this camera delivers 1920×1080 resolution with exceptional low-light performance and integrated IR illumination extending to 20 meters, enabling 24/7 security without compromise.
Key Features
- 2MP Full HD resolution (1920×1080) with multiple resolution options
- Wide 113.7° horizontal field of view via 2.8mm fixed focal lens
- Integrated IR LEDs with 20-meter night vision range
- Extreme low-light capability: 0.03 Lux color / 0 Lux B/W (IR mode)
- 120dB Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) with BLC and SSDR
- H.265/H.264/MJPEG video compression with WiseStream II smart codec
- Day/night auto-switching (ICR) with hallway view rotation
- Motion detection (4 polygonal zones) and defocus detection
- MicroSD/SDHC/SDXC storage up to 128GB edge recording
- PoE powered (IEEE 802.3af, Class 3) with optional 12V DC supply
- ONVIF-compliant with HTTPS/SSL encryption and 802.1X authentication
Technical Highlights
Imaging Performance: The 2MP CMOS sensor with F2.0 aperture and Lens Distortion Correction ensures sharp, distortion-free imagery across the 113.7° horizontal view. Minimum object focus distance of 0.5 meters accommodates close-range detail capture. Video output includes both CVBS composite (for installation) and IP streaming.
Intelligent Low-Light: Exceptional sensitivity at 0.03 Lux in color mode (F2.0, 1/30 second) combined with IR LEDs rated to 20 meters ensures reliable performance in dark environments. Automatic day/night switching (ICR) optimizes image quality across lighting transitions.
Video Efficiency: WiseStream II codec enables intelligent bitrate control, reducing bandwidth and storage demands while maintaining quality. Support for H.265, H.264, and MJPEG compression with multiple streaming profiles (up to 3 simultaneous streams for 6 users) provides flexibility across network environments. Maximum frame rate is 30fps H.264/H.265 and 15fps MJPEG.
Robust Analytics: Built-in motion detection across 4 configurable zones, defocus detection, directional detection, enter/exit, tampering detection, and virtual line crossing enable proactive alerts. Privacy masking (6 rectangular zones) protects sensitive areas.
Network & Security: Gigabit Ethernet (10/100BASE-T) with full protocol stack (IPv4/IPv6, TCP/IP, UDP/IP, RTSP, RTP, DHCP, DNS, DDNS, SNMP v1/v2c/v3). Industry-standard security includes HTTPS/SSL encryption, digest authentication, IP filtering, user access logs, and 802.1X EAP-TLS/LEAP support.
Physical & Power Specifications
Compact dome form factor (110×86mm, 255g) in RAL9003 white plastic. Operating range –10°C to +55°C with less than 90% RH. PoE draws maximum 7.4W typical 6.0W; 12V DC draws maximum 6.4W typical 5.1W. Includes 512MB RAM and 256MB Flash.
Applications
Ideal for retail stores, office complexes, airport lounges, bank branches, and hospitality venues requiring discreet, low-profile surveillance. Wide field of view and IR capability make it suitable for entrance halls, stockrooms, and areas with minimal ambient lighting. ONVIF compliance ensures integration with existing VMS platforms.

The QND-6012R1 strikes an excellent balance between compact form factor and surveillance capability. The 113.7° FOV from a fixed 2.8mm lens is aggressive without distortion thanks to LDC, making it effective for perimeter coverage in confined spaces. The 120dB WDR handles mixed lighting (e.g., backlit doors, window glare) competently, though users requiring extreme dynamic range should consider stepping up to Hanwha's 4MP or higher-end models.
The IR LED implementation—delivering 20 meters in B/W mode—is solid for indoor deployments; outdoor applications should verify coverage adequacy based on environmental reflectivity. WiseStream II codec integration is a significant advantage for bandwidth-constrained networks, especially when pairing multiple cameras on modest connection speeds.
Network security posture is strong: HTTPS, 802.1X, and digest authentication are enterprise-grade. Edge storage via microSD is practical for failover recording but should not replace centralized NVR backup for compliance-sensitive environments. The camera's PoE Class 3 rating ensures compatibility with standard enterprise switches and injectors, simplifying deployment.
Best suited for organizations prioritizing cost-effectiveness and space efficiency in indoor surveillance; less ideal for applications demanding ultra-high resolution or thermal sensing.
