Hanwha QND-8021 5MP Mini Dome IP Camera

Hanwha QND-8021 5MP Mini Dome IP Camera

The Hanwha QND-8021 is a compact 5MP day/night indoor dome camera engineered for professional surveillance in corporate offices, retail environments, and institutional settings. Its diminutive form factor and powerful imaging capabilities make it an ideal choice for deployments requiring discreet yet effective coverage without compromising on image quality or performance.

Key Features

• 5-megapixel (2592x1944) resolution with 11 resolution modes for flexible deployment
• 4mm fixed focal length with 81° horizontal field of view for comprehensive indoor coverage
• Day/night capability with automatic electrical IR cut filter for round-the-clock monitoring
• Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology with 120dB for balanced imaging in mixed lighting
• Advanced compression: H.265, H.264, and MJPEG with WiseStream II smart codec support
• PoE powered (IEEE 802.3af, Class 2) with minimal 4W typical consumption
• IP42 and IK08 rated for robust indoor operation
• Micro SD/SDHC/SDXC card support up to 128GB for edge storage
• Multiple streaming profiles (up to 3) with unicast and multicast support

Technical Specifications

The QND-8021 captures video at 30fps in H.265/H.264 modes and 15fps in MJPEG, with minimum illumination of 0.15 Lux (F1.6) for low-light performance. Its 1/2.8" CMOS sensor delivers exceptional detail, while electronic shutter speeds ranging from 1/5 to 1/12,000 seconds provide adaptive exposure control. The camera supports 4 polygonal motion detection zones and 6 rectangular privacy masking areas for intelligent event management.

Image enhancement features include Backlight Compensation (BLC), Wide Dynamic Range (WDR), and Spatial Subjective Noise Reduction (SSNR) for optimized clarity across varying conditions. Lens Distortion Correction (LDC) and video rotation capabilities (flip, mirror, hallway view at 90°/270°) enable flexible installation and presentation options.

Security & Connectivity

Enterprise-grade security is built in with HTTPS, SRTP, and WSS encryption, 802.1X network authentication, and firmware encryption. The camera supports ONVIF Profile S/G/T, SUNAPI HTTP API, and Wisenet open platform integration for seamless ecosystem deployment. IP-based access control, digest authentication, and brute-force attack prevention safeguard against unauthorized access.

Applications

Ideal for corporate office monitoring, retail loss prevention, school and university surveillance, banking environments, and healthcare facilities. The compact dome design provides professional aesthetics while the PoE simplicity reduces installation costs and complexity. Edge recording capabilities via microSD card enable continued operation during network interruptions.

The QND-8021 represents an excellent value proposition in the mini dome segment. Its 5MP sensor and 4mm focal length deliver sufficient detail for facial recognition at 6.2m and identification tasks to 12.3m, meeting mid-range surveillance requirements. The WiseStream II codec and H.265 support provide bandwidth optimization critical for edge-deployed cameras with limited network resources.

The 0.15 Lux minimum illumination and 120dB WDR collectively ensure viable imaging across office lighting conditions without supplemental IR. For IT teams, the robust API support (ONVIF, SUNAPI) and multi-profile streaming simplify integration into diverse VMS platforms. The IP42/IK08 ratings and -10°C to +40°C operating range define realistic indoor-only deployment, precluding exterior mounting.

Overall, this camera excels in space-constrained indoor environments where discretion, image quality, and system simplicity converge.
