PRN-1600B2

Description

The Hanwha Vision PRN-1600B2 is a powerful, enterprise-grade 16-channel Network Video Recorder. It is built for intelligent, high-resolution surveillance environments. It is designed by Hanwha Vision, formerly known as Wisenet/Samsung. This rack mountable Linux-based NVR delivers the performance and reliability needed for demanding security operations. In particular, it is suitable across commercial, industrial, and government sites.

Supporting recording resolutions up to 8K and 32MP, the PRN-1600B2 provides exceptional image clarity for modern IP camera systems. In addition, it offers 256 Mbps of recording bandwidth. It also supports H.265, H.264, and MJPEG compression. As a result, it enables efficient, license-free recording across all 16 channels. At the same time, it maintains the detail required for forensic review and live monitoring.

Storage flexibility is a major strength of this model. The recorder includes 8 internal SATA drive bays, each supporting up to 10 TB per HDD, for a total maximum capacity of 80 TB.

You can purchase it empty or pre-configured with storage arrays ranging from 8 TB to 80 TB. Therefore, it is easy to match the system to the needs of small deployments. Alternatively, it is also suitable for large-scale enterprise installations.

For added resilience and data protection, the PRN-1600B2 supports RAID 5 and RAID 6 hardware configurations. It also offers Automatic Recovery Backup (ARB). These features help safeguard critical video recordings and improve system continuity. As a result, they reduce the risk of data loss in the event of a drive failure or system interruption.

The recorder is also built for efficient local operation, featuring dual HDMI outputs that support a primary 4K display at 3840×2160 @ 30Hz and a secondary 1080p monitor. Additionally, three RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports allow for dedicated LAN, WAN, and camera network isolation. This helps improve security, performance, and network management in complex deployments.

Advanced AI integration makes the PRN-1600B2 especially valuable for modern surveillance workflows. It works directly with Hanwha P, X, and Q series AI cameras to parse metadata. This allows operators to search and filter playback by object detection and classification.

This includes people and vehicles, as well as attributes like clothing color and vehicle type. It also supports best-shot capture and license plate recognition. Therefore, it streamlines investigations and reduces the time needed to find relevant events.

The PRN-1600B2 features a modern, plugin-free web interface. It works seamlessly with contemporary browsers including Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Safari.

Security is further strengthened with 802.1X authentication, IP address filtering, signed firmware, and a built-in Trusted Platform Module (TPM). It is fully NDAA and FCC compliant. Consequently, this NVR is an excellent choice for U.S. government facilities. In addition, it is ideal for critical infrastructure and any organization that demands dependable, secure, and intelligent video surveillance.
