Hanwha XNB-H6244A 2MP ATM Network IP Camera Kit

Hanwha XNB-H6244A 2MP ATM Network IP Camera Kit

The Hanwha XNB-H6244A is a purpose-built 2MP network IP camera kit engineered for ATM and financial institution surveillance. This kit addresses the specific imaging challenge of ATM environments—extreme backlighting from screens, tight spatial constraints, and the need for facial recognition capability. The solution ships complete with a SLA-T2415A 2.4mm fixed lens, STB-2000 ATM mounting bracket, and all required cabling, eliminating procurement fragmentation and installation delays.

Key Features

• 2MP Full HD Resolution (1920×1080): Delivers sufficient detail for face identification and transaction documentation at 60fps maximum frame rate. Multi-output format streaming allows simultaneous feeds at different resolutions and frame rates without impacting primary recording quality.
• Extreme Wide Dynamic Range (120dB extremeWDR) with Highlight Compensation (HLC): The 120dB WDR range directly counters the brightness differential between ATM LCD displays and ambient surroundings. HLC specifically suppresses blown highlights from reflective screens, preventing loss of facial and transaction details in overexposed regions.
• H.265 and H.264 Codec Support with WiseStreamII Bandwidth Optimization: H.265 reduces storage and bandwidth consumption 40–60% versus H.264 depending on scene complexity—a measurable cost factor when recording 24/7 across multiple ATM units. WiseStreamII maintains compliance-grade image quality while accommodating legacy network infrastructure with constrained bandwidth.
• SLA-T2415A 2.4mm Fixed Lens (F2.0) with 138° Horizontal Field of View: The ultra-wide 138° FOV provides comprehensive ATM coverage in confined spaces without requiring pan-tilt-zoom. Fixed focal length eliminates hunting and focus drift common in motorized lenses, ensuring consistent framing across all lighting conditions.
• Lens Distortion Correction (LDC) and Hallway View (90°/270° Rotation): LDC renders straight lines accurately despite the extreme 138° field of view, eliminating barrel distortion artifacts. Hallway View rotation accommodates sideways mounting when space constraints prevent standard vertical/horizontal orientation, maintaining usable coverage without dedicated repositioning brackets.
• Built-in Analytics Suite: Motion detection, tamper detection, fog detection, face detection, and virtual area/line crossing operate on-device without network overhead. Face detection supports compliance documentation and real-time intrusion alerts; virtual line crossing flags unauthorized approach vectors toward ATM terminals.
• Bi-directional Audio with Selectable Mic/Line Input and Line Output: Supports audio alerting and two-way communication with on-site personnel or remote security staff. Mic/line input flexibility accommodates both standalone microphones and external audio sources; line output integrates with facility PA systems.
• PoE (IEEE 802.3af) or 12VDC Power with Failover Support: Draws 6.9W typical via PoE or 5.5W on 12VDC, remaining well below 802.3af power limits (15.4W) and allowing daisy-chaining across low-budget PoE infrastructure. Redundancy failover maintains recording continuity during primary power disruption—critical for audit-trail compliance in financial environments.
• Micro SD/SDHC/SDXC Edge Storage up to 1TB: Local continuous recording to removable media ensures 24+ hours of buffering during network outages. Micro SD format supports field replacement without camera power-down, minimizing operational disruption during media rotation or archival procedures.
• Extended Operating Temperature Range (-10°C to +55°C): Handles seasonal ATM enclosure temperature swings without image quality degradation. Wide thermal range eliminates the need for supplementary cooling or heating enclosures in uninsulated vestibules or outdoor ATM kiosks.
• 20 Concurrent Unicast Users with Multiple Streaming Profiles: Allows simultaneous feeds to primary NVR, remote management interface, and backup archival systems without bitrate contention or frame-rate reduction on the primary recording stream.
• Advanced Image Processing (BLC, SSDR, WiseNR, Digital Stabilization): Back Light Correction (BLC) compensates for silhouetting when subjects appear between camera and bright ATM display. Smart Super Dynamic Range (SSDR), WiseNoise Reduction (WiseNR), and digital stabilization preserve facial detail and reduce storage bloat from high noise in low-light vestibule conditions.

When to Choose a Different Model

If your ATM deployment requires longer-range zoom capability (e.g., to cover entrance vestibules or cash dispensing areas beyond immediate ATM field), consider a varifocal lens variant in the Hanwha XNB series. If facial recognition must operate in near-total darkness without visible illumination (infrared-only scenarios), the XNB-H6244A's natural-light emphasis may fall short—evaluate IR-equipped variants or thermal imaging solutions instead. For outdoor ATM kiosks exposed to direct rain and pressure washing, verify IP67 certification on alternative models; this unit is rated for ATM interior/vestibule environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the XNB-H6244A support edge recording to local storage?

A: Yes. Micro SD/SDHC/SDXC card slot supports cards up to 1TB capacity for continuous local recording. This ensures compliance-grade recording continuity during network interruptions and eliminates single points of failure in centralized NVR architectures.

Q: What is the maximum field of view with the included SLA-T2415A lens?

Perspective based on aggregated IP Security Depot and affiliated engineering team experience.

The XNB-H6244A directly addresses the two hardest imaging problems in ATM surveillance: extreme backlighting from LCD screens and the need for reliable facial capture in confined spaces. The 120dB extremeWDR paired with Highlight Compensation (HLC) is not a marketing checkbox—it's a fundamental requirement. ATM displays punch out 500+ cd/m² in bright daylight; ambient surroundings may sit at 50 cd/m². That's a 10:1 brightness ratio. Standard cameras blow out the bright regions and lose the face. The XNB-H6244A's WDR pipeline handles this directly in the sensor, not via post-processing dodges that degrade image quality.

Technical Highlights:

• 120dB WDR + HLC: Recovers facial detail in zones that would produce pure white washout on conventional 2MP cameras. The Highlight Compensation layer specifically targets reflective surfaces, preventing blown specular highlights on ATM screens and nearby glass.
• H.265 Codec + WiseStreamII: Reduces bandwidth 40–60% versus H.264. On a multi-unit ATM deployment (say, 8–12 cameras), this translates to measurable storage and network cost savings. WiseStreamII maintains compliance-grade detail without forcing you to upgrade legacy PoE infrastructure.
• 138° FOV with Lens Distortion Correction: The 2.4mm fixed lens eliminates focus hunting and lens breathing artifacts. LDC straightens the barrel distortion inherent to extreme wide angles, so facial geometry remains accurate for recognition algorithms and audit review.
• 1TB Micro SD Edge Storage + Failover Power: 24+ hours of local recording ensures continuous audit trail during WAN outages. Failover support (switching from PoE to 12VDC or vice versa) keeps the camera recording if primary power fails—non-negotiable for financial compliance.
• On-Device Face Detection + Virtual Line Crossing: Analytics run locally on the 2GB RAM + 512MB Flash without burdening the NVR. Face detection triggers alerts and logs every transaction zone entry. Virtual line crossing catches approach vectors toward the ATM that bypass normal entry sequences.

Deployment Considerations:

• Fixed 2.4mm Lens Commitment: The 138° field of view is optimized for close-range ATM mounting. If you need to cover the entrance vestibule AND the ATM face from a single vantage point more than ~8 feet away, you may need a second camera or a varifocal alternative. The included STB-2000 bracket locks the lens angle; repositioning requires remounting.
• PoE Power Budget: At 6.9W, this camera is lightweight on your PoE switch. But if you're chaining eight units on a single 802.3af port (daisy-link passive injectors), verify cumulative wattage doesn't exceed the switch port limit. Standard practice: one injector per camera or a managed PoE switch rated for the aggregate load.
• Network Outage Resilience: Edge storage to Micro SD is your lifeline during ISP failures. But remember: the card itself is a physical wear item. Rotate cards every 12–24 months depending on write cycles, and test card health quarterly. A failed Micro SD card with weeks of unwiped content is a liability, not a feature.

The XNB-H6244A is the right call for ATM-only surveillance where space is tight, backlighting is brutal, and audit trail continuity cannot break. If you're deploying across a franchise network with dozens of ATMs, the per-unit cost of edge storage and the bandwidth savings from H.265 pay for themselves within 18 months. For mixed-use financial branch deployments (entrance, teller lines, vault), you'll likely pair this with wider-angle or PTZ cameras. But for pure ATM surveillance, this kit eliminates procurement fragmentation and ships ready to mount.
