Hanwha XNB-A8004B Overview
The Hanwha XNB-A8004B is a powered remote head network camera engineered for modular surveillance deployments where lens flexibility and advanced analytics are required. This 1-channel remote head platform, powered by the WN9 processing engine, supports dual resolution modes—1 channel 2MP at 30 fps or 1 channel 5MP at 15 fps—and delivers 120dB wide dynamic range for high-contrast environments. The hard-coated dome bubble and day/night (ICR) capability enable reliable operation across indoor and outdoor installations where adaptable focal lengths and compact form factor are essential.
Hanwha XNB-A8004B Key Features
- Dual Resolution & Frame Rate Modes: Capture at 2MP 30 fps or 5MP 15 fps, allowing configuration flexibility based on scene requirements and network bandwidth constraints.
- 120dB Wide Dynamic Range with extremeWDR: Handles extreme lighting contrasts in retail, transportation, and industrial environments without image degradation across bright and dark zones.
- Triple Codec Support (H.265/H.264/MJPEG): Encode video in H.265 for optimal compression efficiency, H.264 for universal VMS compatibility, or MJPEG for motion-intensive applications.
- AI-Based Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA): Built-in AI engine detects motion and object presence, monitors line crossing and area intrusion, identifies slip-and-fall events, and classifies audio events for comprehensive threat detection.
- Advanced Object Classification: Automatically identifies and attributes persons (gender, clothing color, bags), faces (age, gender, mask/glasses detection), vehicles (type, color), and license plates for forensic search and business intelligence.
- WiseStream AI Compression: Reduces bandwidth and storage demands through intelligent region-of-interest encoding while maintaining image quality in areas of interest.
- WiseNR AI-Powered Noise Reduction: Leverages the AI engine to suppress video noise without compromising fine detail, particularly valuable in low-light scenes.
- Dynamic Privacy Masking: Protects sensitive areas through pixel-level privacy masking with flexible zone configuration.
- Business Intelligence Analytics: Provides people counting, vehicle counting, crowd density analysis, queue management, and heatmap visualization for operational insights.
- Digital Image Stabilization with Built-In Gyro Sensor: Compensates for vibration and minor camera movement, ensuring stable video in installations subject to structural movement or installation drift.
- Secure Element with FIPS 140-3 Level 3 Certification: Integrates cryptographic hardware for secure key storage, firmware signing verification, and encrypted credential management meeting federal security standards.
- Onboard Storage: Built-in microSD Card Slot (Up to 1TB): Enables local backup and edge recording independent of network infrastructure for continuity and forensic retention.
- USB-C Port for Installation: Simplifies configuration, firmware updates, and troubleshooting during deployment without requiring external connection infrastructure.
- PoE+ Power (802.3at) & 12VDC Option: Operates on single PoE+ connection delivering up to 30W or optional 12VDC auxiliary power for high-load scenarios.
- Additional Analytic Events: Detects defocus, motion, tampering, fog obstruction, audio threshold violations, and shock/impact events for proactive system monitoring.
- BestShot Frame Selection: Automatically selects and archives the sharpest or most representative frame from video sequences for reliable evidence capture.
- Handover Support: Enables seamless handoff between camera systems and analytics platforms during zone transitions or multi-sensor deployments.
Hanwha XNB-A8004B Integration & Compatibility
The XNB-A8004B is compatible with Hanwha modular lens units including the SLA-T4680A (4.6mm pinhole, 2MP, 73° horizontal FOV, 0.06 lux), SLA-T4680VA (4.6mm varifocal equivalent), SLA-T2480A/T2480VA (alternative focal length options), and SLA-T1080FA (additional lens configuration). Future firmware updates will enable 5MP lens module compatibility, extending deployment flexibility. The remote head architecture supports ONVIF-based integration with third-party VMS platforms and network video management systems. The modular lens connector (RJ12) and USB-C configuration port ensure straightforward field installation and swappable optical configurations without requiring camera body replacement.
