Hanwha TNM-C4942TDR 4K Bi-Spectrum AI Radiometric Camera

The Hanwha TNM-C4942TDR is a professional-grade bi-spectrum AI radiometric camera engineered for outdoor surveillance environments requiring simultaneous high-definition visible and thermal imaging with embedded temperature detection. This Wisenet T series multi-sensor camera delivers 4K (8 MP) visible resolution paired with uncooled VGA thermal imaging in a single integrated PTZ form factor, enabling security integrators to deploy comprehensive threat detection and thermal monitoring across perimeter, infrastructure, and critical asset protection applications.

Key Features

• Dual-channel 4K visible + VGA thermal imaging: Captures 4K UHD visible at 30 fps with motorized 9.1 mm varifocal lens and simultaneous 640×480 uncooled thermal imaging, enabling coordinated wide-area detection and thermal analysis without channel switching
• AI-powered object classification: Detects and classifies persons and vehicles in thermal; on visible channel detects person, face, vehicle (car, bus, truck, motorcycle, bicycle), and license plate with BestShot optimization
• Radiometric temperature monitoring: Monitors temperature range from −20°C to 130°C across full field of view or within up to 10 customizable polygonal regions of interest for remote thermal trend analysis and alarm triggering
• H.265 video compression: Reduces bandwidth and storage requirements while maintaining image quality
• Wide Dynamic Range (WDR): Optimizes visibility in challenging lighting conditions across both visible and thermal channels
• PoE+ power delivery: 802.3at PoE+ simplifies installation and reduces cabling complexity
• Rugged IP66/IP67 rating: Sealed against dust and high-pressure water jets for harsh outdoor environments
• IK10 impact resistance: Withstands 20 joule impacts for vandal-prone locations

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

The TNM-C4942TDR represents a significant advancement in multi-sensor surveillance technology. The integration of 4K visible and radiometric thermal imaging in a single PTZ platform eliminates the need for separate camera deployments while maintaining synchronized AI analytics across both spectrums. The radiometric capability—allowing precise temperature monitoring across 10 customizable ROIs—transforms this camera from a detection tool into a diagnostic asset for predictive maintenance and threat prevention.

H.265 compression ensures efficient network utilization, critical for bandwidth-constrained edge deployments. The PoE+ power specification and IP66/IP67 sealing make this platform suitable for rapid deployment in challenging outdoor environments where traditional dual-camera setups would be cost-prohibitive. The IK10 rating and Wisenet AI backbone position this solution for long-term integration into enterprise security and IoT ecosystems.
