Hanwha announces new 5MP multi-directional camera at ISC West

TEANECK, N.J.—At ISC West 2019, in booth #14079, Hanwha Techwin America, a global supplier of IP and analog video surveillance solutions, will announce its latest multi-sensor camera, the Wisenet PNM-9000VD (2-head) delivering 5MP image quality and modular lens configuration at an affordable price.

The PNM-9000VD supports 30fps image capture and true 120 dB WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) without compromising frame rate for each of its 5MP sensors. For maximum adaptability, configurable factory focused lens/CMOS sensor modules are available in 3.7, 4.6, and 7mm for multiple fields of view, which can be easily installed on site. Hallway view aspect ratios are also supported for monitoring of vertical shaped areas. Each sensor has its own Wisenet 5 chip providing a full suite of built-in video analytics including loitering, directional detection, fog detection, tampering, motion detection, and objects entering or exiting an area.

The PNM-9000VD supports a selectable triple codec featuring H.265/H.264/MJPEG complemented by Hanwha's WiseStream II technology. Even for customers still utilizing H.264-based VMS and servers today, having H.265 capable cameras provide a future-proof investment as infrastructure evolves.

“Hanwha Techwin is one of the first manufacturers of multi-sensor cameras in the market that support a triple codec including H.265,” Ray Cooke, Vice President of Solution & Product Management, Hanwha Techwin America, said in the announcement. “We're happy to see the increased momentum for H.265 as more organizations realize that high-resolution video doesn't have to take up more space.”

The PNM-9000VD utilizes a single IP address requiring only one VMS license further reducing the cost to install, service, and support.

Hanwha Techwin America is a subsidiary of Hanwha Corporation, a South Korean based company. Hanwha Techwin is a global supplier of solutions for IP and analog video surveillance.
