Overview
The Hanwha XNP-C9253 is a professional-grade 8MP outdoor PTZ camera engineered for demanding surveillance applications. Combining high-resolution imaging, intelligent AI-powered auto-tracking, and robust environmental protection, this camera delivers comprehensive coverage and actionable intelligence for enterprise security operations. Built on the Wisenet platform with a 25x optical zoom and 360° pan capability, the XNP-C9253 excels in large-area monitoring where subject identification and continuous tracking are critical.
The XNP-C9253 captures at 8MP with support for H.265, H.264, and MJPEG compression, enabling efficient bandwidth utilization through Hanwha's WiseStream III codec technology. Its 1/2.8" CMOS sensor delivers exceptional low-light performance, critical for 24/7 outdoor operations. The camera supports up to 20 concurrent unicast streams and 128 multicast users, making it suitable for large-scale deployments with multiple monitoring stations.
Environmental durability is paramount: the camera achieves IP66 rating, IK10 vandal resistance, and NEMA 4X certification. Integrated lens heater and spin-dry technology ensure clear optics in rain, snow, and frost conditions. Operating temperature range of -40°C to +55°C (-40°F to +131°F) supports extreme climates.
Security features include TPM with FIPS 140-2 Level 2, secure boot, signed firmware, and HTTPS/SRTP encryption. Support for ONVIF Profile S/G/T/M, along with Hanwha's proprietary SUNAPI and Wisenet open platform, enables seamless integration with third-party VMS and NVR systems.
Dual microSD/SDHC/SDXC card slots support up to 1TB edge storage (512GB×2) for local event recording. The camera features 4GB RAM and 512MB flash, with 16 multilingual UI options. Alarm triggers activate file uploads, notifications, and scheduled recordings to SD or NAS storage.
Ideal for perimeter monitoring, parking areas, traffic enforcement, critical infrastructure, campus security, and large outdoor venues where pan-tilt-zoom flexibility and intelligent tracking reduce operational burden and enhance threat detection.

The XNP-C9253 represents Hanwha's commitment to AI-native surveillance. Its Wisenet 7 chipset executes real-time object classification and tracking at the edge, reducing false alarms and alert fatigue common in legacy PTZ systems. The 120dB WDR handles high-contrast scenes (e.g., backlit entrances, vehicle headlights) without image degradation.
Pan/tilt acceleration reaching 700°/500° per second enables rapid target acquisition—critical in active threat scenarios. The dual codec support (H.265 for bandwidth-constrained networks, H.264 for legacy systems) and 10 concurrent streaming profiles provide deployment flexibility. For integrators, ONVIF compliance and REST API support simplify VMS migration and custom automation.
The IP66/IK10 ratings and integrated environmental controls position this camera for unattended outdoor installations where maintenance access is limited.
