Product SKU: HV-HCO-7070RA
Product Overview
For sites running existing coaxial infrastructure, replacing cameras without rewiring is a genuine priority, and the HV-HCO-7070RA is built precisely for that scenario. Part of Hanwha Vision’s WiseNet HD+ analogue series, this outdoor bullet camera delivers QHD 2560 x 1440 resolution at 30fps over standard coaxial cable, with a transmission distance of up to 500m. Featuring a 3.2-10mm varifocal lens, installers can fine-tune the field of view to suit entry points, car parks, loading areas, or extended outdoor runs without swapping hardware. Equipped with ICR-based Day and Night switching and a 0 Lux IR capability, it maintains usable footage after dark. Built with IP66 weather resistance and IK10 impact protection, the bullet housing is rated for exposed outdoor positions. It also includes DWDR and motion detection, and supports dual power input, making it straightforward to integrate into both new analogue builds and retrofitted systems.
Key Capabilities
QHD Resolution at 30fps
Recording at 2560 x 1440 (QHD), the HV-HCO-7070RA captures considerably more detail than 1080p analogue cameras, making it easier to identify faces, plates, and activity in wider scenes without requiring an IP camera upgrade.
3.1x Varifocal Lens
The 3.2-10mm motorised varifocal lens allows installers to adjust the field of view on-site, whether covering a compact entry gate or a longer outdoor approach. This flexibility removes the need to carry multiple fixed-lens models across different job sites.
0 Lux IR Night Vision
With ICR-based Day and Night switching and a minimum illumination of 0 Lux in B/W mode with IR active, this camera maintains usable footage in complete darkness, suited to unlit car parks, alleys, or perimeter lines.
IP66 and IK10 Rated Housing
The bullet housing carries IP66 dust and water resistance alongside IK10 impact protection, making it suitable for exposed outdoor positions on commercial buildings, fence lines, and industrial sites where weather and tampering are genuine concerns.
500m Coaxial Transmission
WiseNet HD+ transmits QHD analogue signal over existing coaxial cable at distances up to 500m, a significant advantage for large sites where cable runs are long and re-cabling would be costly. It is also backwards compatible with existing analogue recorders.
Best For
- Analogue System Upgrades: The WiseNet HD+ AHD format works over existing coaxial cable and is backwards compatible with legacy analogue recorders, making it a practical upgrade path without full re-cabling.
- Large Outdoor Sites with Long Cable Runs: A 500m maximum coaxial transmission distance supports large commercial properties, industrial yards, and perimeter applications where IP cameras would require additional PoE switches or fibre.
- Exposed Perimeter and Car Park Positions: The IP66 and IK10 ratings suit wall or pole-mounted bullet positions on exposed facades, fence lines, and open car parks where weather and incidental impact are ongoing factors.
- Sites Requiring Adjustable Field of View: The 3.2-10mm varifocal lens means a single camera model can be configured for near entry points or longer approaches, reducing the need for separate SKUs across a multi-zone installation.
Why Choose the HV-HCO-7070RA
The HV-HCO-7070RA stands out within the analogue camera segment by delivering genuine QHD 2560 x 1440 resolution over coaxial cable, a step above the 1080p that most analogue upgrades stop at. Combined with a 3.1x varifocal lens, IK10 vandal resistance, and a coaxial range of up to 500m, it addresses the practical constraints that come with large-site analogue installations. The dual power input adds flexibility for retrofit projects where the existing power supply type may vary. A simpler or cheaper analogue bullet would typically lack varifocal adjustment, QHD output, or IK10 impact protection, limiting its usefulness across varied mounting positions and environmental conditions. The HV-HCO-7070RA is available through Security Wholesalers for installers and integrators looking to upgrade analogue infrastructure without compromising on image quality or physical durability.
Buyer Decision Tips
Analogue vs IP Decision: If your site already has coaxial cable infrastructure and an analogue recorder, the HV-HCO-7070RA allows a meaningful resolution upgrade without replacing cabling or switching to a network video recorder. If you are starting from scratch or the site already has Cat5e/Cat6 cabling, an IP camera system is likely the more future-ready choice since it enables remote access, higher channel scalability, and integration with AI-based analytics.
Varifocal Lens Adjustment: The 3.2-10mm varifocal range is set manually during installation. Before mounting, confirm the intended coverage distance and calculate whether the lens range will capture the required scene width at that distance. For very wide open areas requiring a field of view beyond 10mm equivalent, a wider lens option or multiple cameras may be more appropriate.

Ideal Use Cases
Industrial Yard and Loading Dock Monitoring
The IP66 and IK10 ratings suit wall-mounted bullet positions in industrial environments where camera housings are exposed to dust, moisture, and incidental impact from equipment or vehicles.
Car Park and Perimeter Fence Coverage
The varifocal lens and QHD resolution allow the camera to cover extended outdoor approaches or car park lanes with enough detail to distinguish individuals and vehicle activity across the scene.
Legacy Analogue System Upgrades
WiseNet HD+ backwards compatibility allows the HV-HCO-7070RA to connect to existing analogue recorders over existing coaxial cable, providing a QHD resolution upgrade without requiring new infrastructure.
Long Cable Run Sites
With a maximum coaxial transmission distance of 500m, this camera suits large commercial properties, rural sites, and expansive warehouse or logistics facilities where long cable runs between camera positions and the recorder room are unavoidable.
Building Exterior and Entry Points
Mounted above doorways, gates, or driveway entries, the bullet form factor provides directed coverage across a specific approach, with the varifocal lens allowing the installer to frame the scene precisely without repositioning the mount.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You are upgrading cameras on an existing analogue coaxial system and want QHD image quality, a varifocal lens for flexible framing, and IK10-rated outdoor protection without replacing your recorder or rewiring.
- Choose a different model if: Your site is being built from the ground up with Cat5e or Cat6 cabling, in which case an IP bullet or turret camera will give you greater scalability, remote access flexibility, and access to AI-based analytics that are not available in the analogue format. Similarly, if very long-range IR distance beyond what this model confirms is a priority, an IP camera with a specified IR range in the datasheet would be a more reliable choice.
FAQs
- What resolution does the HV-HCO-7070RA actually record at?
The HV-HCO-7070RA records at QHD resolution: 2560 x 1440 pixels at 30fps. This is a genuine 4MP output delivered over coaxial cable as part of the WiseNet HD+ analogue format. It provides considerably more image detail than a standard 1080p analogue camera, which is useful for distinguishing faces and activity across wider scenes.
- Will this camera work with my existing analogue CCTV recorder?
The HV-HCO-7070RA uses the WiseNet HD+ AHD signal format and is stated to be backwards compatible with existing analogue systems. However, to take full advantage of QHD resolution, your recorder will need to support QHD AHD input. If the recorder only supports 1080p analogue, it may downscale the output. Confirm your recorder’s supported input formats before purchasing.
- How far can this camera transmit its signal over coaxial cable?
The HV-HCO-7070RA supports a maximum coaxial transmission distance of 500m. This is a key advantage for large sites such as industrial estates, warehouses, or rural properties where the camera positions are far from the recorder location and running new IP cabling would be impractical or costly.
- Is the varifocal lens on the HV-HCO-7070RA motorised or manually adjusted?
The product data confirms a 3.2-10mm varifocal lens with a 3.1x zoom range. The lens is adjusted during installation to set the desired field of view. Confirm the required coverage distance and scene width before mounting, as the lens position is typically set once and locked in place rather than adjusted remotely.
- What does dual power input mean for this camera?
Dual power support means the HV-HCO-7070RA can accept more than one power supply type, which is useful in retrofit and mixed-infrastructure sites where the available power source may vary between locations. This simplifies installation by reducing the need for power adapters or additional hardware to match a single power standard across all camera positions.
- Is the HV-HCO-7070RA suitable for mounting in exposed outdoor positions?
Yes. The bullet housing is rated IP66 for dust and water resistance and IK10 for impact protection. This combination suits exposed wall or pole-mounted positions on building exteriors, car parks, loading docks, and fence lines where the camera may be subject to rain, dust, and incidental physical contact. The HV-HCO-7070RA is part of the Hanwha Vision range available through Security Wholesalers for commercial and industrial installations.
