Hanwha Vision 16MP 4-Channel AI IR PTRZ Multi-Directional Camera. PNM-C16083RQZ

Hanwha Vision PNM-C16083RQZ 16MP AI IR Multi-Directional Network Camera

The Hanwha Vision PNM-C16083RQZ is a professional 16MP multi-directional network camera featuring four independent 4MP camera channels, AI-powered video analytics, integrated IR illumination, and remotely adjustable PTRZ (Pan, Tilt, Rotate, Zoom) functionality. Designed for comprehensive surveillance of large areas, the PNM-C16083RQZ allows security teams to monitor multiple directions from a single camera while reducing installation costs, network connections, and infrastructure requirements.

Each of the camera's four channels features a 1/2.8" CMOS sensor and 3.2–10.2mm 3.2x motorized varifocal lens, providing a horizontal field of view from 93° wide to 29° telephoto. Each camera module can be independently positioned and adjusted remotely, providing exceptional flexibility for installation and future coverage changes.

16MP Total Resolution with Four Independent 4MP Cameras

The PNM-C16083RQZ combines four 4MP camera channels in a single multi-directional housing, delivering up to 16MP of total imaging capability. Each channel supports resolutions up to 2592 x 1520 and frame rates up to 30 fps with H.265 or H.264 compression.

The four independent camera modules can be aimed in different directions, making the PNM-C16083RQZ ideal for monitoring building perimeters, parking lots, intersections, large commercial properties, warehouses, and other areas requiring multi-directional coverage.

Remote Motorized PTRZ Adjustment

One of the major advantages of the PNM-C16083RQZ is its remote motorized PTRZ capability. Installers can remotely adjust the pan, tilt, rotation, and zoom position of each camera channel without physically accessing the camera.

Each channel provides:

• 0°–360° pan
• 30°–90° tilt
• 0°–90° rotation
• 3.2x motorized optical zoom
• 3.2–10.2mm motorized varifocal lens
• Remote adjustment for up to 200 cycles

This makes installation and future camera repositioning substantially easier, particularly when cameras are mounted on high ceilings, poles, or other difficult-to-access locations.

AI-Powered Video Analytics

The PNM-C16083RQZ features an integrated AI engine for advanced object detection and classification. The camera can detect and classify people, faces, vehicles, and license plates, while providing additional attributes such as vehicle type, vehicle color, and people clothing color.

AI-powered analytics include:

• Person detection
• Face detection
• Vehicle detection
• License plate detection
• Vehicle type and color classification
• People clothing-color attributes
• BestShot thumbnails
• Virtual line crossing
• Direction detection
• Loitering detection
• Intrusion detection
• Enter and exit detection

These edge-based analytics can help reduce false alarms and provide more useful security information without relying exclusively on server-side processing.

120 dB WDR and Advanced Low-Light Performance

The PNM-C16083RQZ provides 120 dB Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) to preserve image detail in scenes with challenging combinations of bright and dark areas. AI-based WiseNR II noise reduction and Hanwha's WiseStream technology further improve image quality and bandwidth efficiency.

The camera provides minimum illumination down to 0.01 lux in black-and-white mode, while integrated IR illumination enables surveillance in complete darkness.

Integrated IR with Four Independent Zones

The PNM-C16083RQZ features four individually controlled IR illumination zones. WiseIR provides IR visibility up to 20 meters (65.6 feet) when using PoE++, allowing each camera direction to receive optimized infrared illumination.

Independent IR control helps reduce unwanted reflections from nearby walls, ceilings, poles, and other obstructions while improving nighttime image quality.

Efficient Video Compression and Streaming

The camera supports H.265, H.264, and MJPEG video compression. Hanwha's WiseStream III technology intelligently reduces bandwidth and storage requirements while preserving important image details.

The PNM-C16083RQZ supports up to three streaming profiles and is compatible with modern surveillance platforms through ONVIF Profiles S, G, T, and M, SUNAPI, and the Hanwha Vision Open Platform.

Rugged Outdoor Construction

Designed for demanding commercial and outdoor applications, the PNM-C16083RQZ features:

• IP66 weather protection
• IK10 impact protection
• NEMA 4X environmental protection

The camera operates in temperatures from -40°F to 131°F (-40°C to 55°C) and supports 0–100% relative humidity, including condensing environments.

PoE+ and PoE++ Support

The PNM-C16083RQZ supports both PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at Class 4) and PoE++ (IEEE 802.3bt Type 3 Class 6). PoE+ simplifies installation while PoE++ provides additional power for applications requiring maximum IR performance and camera functionality.

Typical power consumption is approximately 22W, with maximum consumption of up to 41W depending on the power configuration and operating conditions.

Advanced Cybersecurity

Hanwha Vision incorporates extensive cybersecurity features into the PNM-C16083RQZ, including encrypted firmware, secure boot, signed firmware, HTTPS, IEEE 802.1X authentication, encrypted credentials, and encrypted SD card partitions.

The camera incorporates a TPM 2.0 secure element with FIPS 140-2 Level 2 certification, helping protect sensitive credentials and cryptographic keys.

Local Edge Storage

For local recording and edge-based storage, the PNM-C16083RQZ supports two microSD/SDHC/SDXC card slots, with up to 512GB per slot and 1TB total supported capacity. The camera can record video locally without requiring every recording stream to be sent to a central recording server.
