Hanwha QNO-6012R1 2MP IR Bullet Camera
The Hanwha QNO-6012R1 is a robust 2MP IR bullet camera engineered for reliable surveillance in demanding indoor and outdoor environments. Built with a 1/2.8" 2MP CMOS sensor delivering 1920 x 1080 resolution, this camera captures sharp, detailed footage while maintaining efficient bandwidth and storage utilization through H.265, H.264, and MJPEG compression options.
Key Features
- 2MP Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080) for clear image capture
- Fixed 2.8mm lens with 113.7° horizontal field of view
- Built-in IR LEDs with 0.5m infrared range for low-light performance
- Day/night capability with automatic switching
- IP66 rated enclosure—dust-tight and water-resistant
- IK10 vandal resistance for physical impact protection
- PoE (Class 3) and 12VDC power options for flexible deployment
- MicroSD local storage support
- Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) for balanced exposure in mixed lighting
- HTTPS encryption for secure data transmission
- ONVIF compatible for third-party system integration
Technical Highlights
This bullet camera excels in low-light scenarios with exceptional sensitivity—0.03 Lux in color mode and 0 Lux in IR mode—ensuring visibility in near-total darkness. The 30fps frame rate delivers smooth video playback suitable for motion-heavy environments. Advanced video analytics including motion detection, tampering detection, and defocus alerts provide real-time notifications of security events or camera obstruction.
The QNO-6012R1's durability specifications make it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. The IP66 rating guarantees protection against dust ingress and high-pressure water jets, while the IK10 vandal rating confirms resistance to significant physical impacts. PoE power delivery simplifies cabling infrastructure, requiring only a single Ethernet run for both power and data, reducing installation complexity and cost.
Applications
Ideal for retail environments, office lobbies, parking structures, and building perimeters where wide-angle coverage and reliable low-light performance are essential. The compact bullet form factor enables discrete mounting on walls or ceilings, while the robust construction handles temperature fluctuations and exposure to the elements.

The QNO-6012R1 represents a balanced mid-range offering in Hanwha's IP camera portfolio. The combination of IP66 and IK10 ratings with PoE power makes it particularly cost-effective for outdoor security projects where weather resistance and simplified power distribution are priorities. The 0.5m IR range is modest compared to premium models, making this camera best suited for close-proximity monitoring rather than long-distance perimeter applications.
Support for multiple compression codecs—particularly H.265—allows administrators to optimize storage and bandwidth according to their network architecture. ONVIF compatibility ensures interoperability with standard VMS platforms, reducing vendor lock-in concerns. Recommended for organizations seeking reliable, durable surveillance without premium pricing.
