Hanwha PNO-A9081RLP/KAP Overview
The Hanwha PNO-A9081RLP/KAP is a 4K infrared bullet camera purpose-built for low-to-moderate speed license plate recognition (LPR) and vehicle classification at traffic lanes, parking facilities, and perimeter checkpoints. This TAA-compliant model integrates Wisenet Road AI for edge-based plate recognition, Make/Model/Color (MMCR) analytics, and statistical reporting—eliminating dependency on external LPR servers and reducing system bandwidth overhead.
Hanwha PNO-A9081RLP/KAP Key Features
- 4K Ultra HD Resolution: Delivers 8 MP (3840×2160) video capture at up to 4K resolution, ensuring clear plate legibility and facial detail for forensic review.
- Varifocal Lens with 2.2x Zoom: 4.5–10 mm motorized varifocal lens optimized for 4K operation allows flexible framing from installation without lens replacement, supporting both wider scene context and tighter plate focus.
- Extreme Low-Light Performance: 0.05 Lux @ F1.6 color sensitivity during daylight and 0 Lux in black-and-white mode with IR LED activation, enabling reliable plate reads in parking garages, nighttime toll plazas, and low-ambient venues.
- Day/Night with IR and WDR: Integrated ICR (Infrared Cut-off Relay) Day/Night switching, 120 dB WDR (Wide Dynamic Range), and IR illumination handle high-contrast scenes—overpasses with glare, backlit vehicle headlights, and transitional dawn/dusk conditions.
- Efficient Codec Suite: H.265, H.264, and MJPEG compression with WiseStream III adaptive bitrate technology minimize storage and bandwidth while preserving license plate and vehicle detail at recording resolution.
- Wisenet Road AI with Edge Analytics: On-camera processing delivers LPR (license plate recognition), Make/Model/Color recognition (daytime color only), vehicle type classification, and statistical dashboard—no external LPR appliance required. Searches and whitelist/blacklist management operate directly within the Wisenet Road AI application.
- Rugged IP67 & IP6K9K Rating: IP66/IP67 weatherproofing plus IP6K9K high-pressure water jet resistance ensure operation in outdoor toll booths, car washes, and spray environments; IK10+ impact resistance protects against vandalism at public-access sites.
- NEMA4X Stainless Housing: Corrosion-resistant enclosure rated NEMA4X is suitable for coastal and chemically aggressive environments (salt spray, industrial parks).
- PoE+ Powered: 802.3at PoE+ (up to 30 W) simplifies installation on existing network infrastructure without dedicated 12 V power runs.
- Local Image & Event Storage: 32 GB microSD card support stores up to 10,000 LPR/vehicle images on-device, enabling offline forensic review and reducing reliance on central NVR capacity during network interruptions.
- Multi-Region LPR Licensing: Open platform application supports USA, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay, Argentina, Colombia, and Chile license plate formats, enabling single-SKU deployment across pan-American operations.
Hanwha PNO-A9081RLP/KAP Integration & Compatibility
The camera operates as a standalone ONVIF-compliant IP device, integrating with standard VMS platforms via HTTP/RTSP streams and edge application APIs. Wisenet Road AI application runs directly on the camera, surfacing events, statistics, search, notifications, and list management (whitelist/blacklist) through a web interface. Regional LPR algorithm licensing is provisioned per deployment geography; consult Hanwha pre-sales support (lprsupport@hanwha.com) and the product selector guide to confirm algorithm availability and optimal mounting height/angle for your specific jurisdiction and speed regime. The open platform supports multiple country/region configurations within a single license, simplifying multi-site rollouts.
