Product SKU: XNV-6123R
Product Overview
For perimeter monitoring where a single camera must cover both broad zones and fine detail at distance, the Hanwha Vision XNV-6123R is a 2MP AI vandal dome built around a 5.2-62.4mm motorised varifocal lens with 12x optical zoom. This allows installers to frame a specific coverage zone post-installation without physical repositioning, making it well suited to wall or ceiling mounting on building facades, car park structures, and industrial site boundaries. Featuring WiseIR infrared illumination with up to 90m night-time range, the XNV-6123R maintains consistent visibility across long approaches after dark. It integrates AI-based object classification covering people, faces, vehicles, and licence plates, alongside behavioural event detection including intrusion, loitering, and direction detection. Extreme WDR at 150dB handles high-contrast outdoor lighting, and frame rates up to 120fps (WDR off) ensure fast-moving activity is captured without blur. The housing carries IP66, IP67, IP6K9K, IK10+, and NEMA4X ratings for exposed outdoor deployment.
Key Capabilities
12x Optical Zoom with Motorised Varifocal Lens
The 5.2-62.4mm motorised lens lets installers remotely frame the exact coverage zone needed, from a wide entrance overview down to a narrow lane focus, without repositioning the camera body. Combined with up to 32x digital zoom, it enables detailed scene inspection at significant distances.
AI Object Classification and Behavioural Analytics
The onboard AI engine detects and classifies people, faces, vehicles, and licence plates, and triggers alerts on behavioural events such as intrusion, loitering, and direction detection. This allows operators to receive targeted, event-driven alerts rather than broad motion notifications.
WiseIR Night Vision to 90m
WiseIR adjusts infrared intensity based on zoom level, preventing overexposure at close range while maintaining effective illumination at longer distances. Reliable night-time coverage extends to approximately 90m, supporting perimeter monitoring after dark without additional lighting infrastructure.
Extreme WDR at 150dB
Scenes with strong backlight, such as vehicle entry points facing sunlight or outdoor areas with mixed shadow and glare, are handled by the 150dB extreme WDR engine. Both highlight and shadow detail are preserved simultaneously, maintaining usable footage across high-contrast environments.
High Frame Rate Capture up to 120fps
With WDR disabled, the XNV-6123R records at up to 120fps at 2MP resolution, ensuring fast-moving subjects such as vehicles or running individuals are captured without motion blur. This makes it particularly useful for vehicle entry lanes and active perimeter zones.
IK10+ Vandal Dome Housing for Exposed Locations
The vandal dome housing carries IK10+ impact resistance alongside IP66, IP67, IP6K9K, and NEMA4X environmental ratings. This combination supports mounting in locations exposed to weather, physical interference, or industrial conditions where a standard outdoor camera would not be appropriate.
Best For
- Perimeter and Boundary Monitoring: The 12x optical zoom and 90m IR range allow a single camera to cover extended outdoor boundaries, zooming in on specific entry points or intrusion zones as required.
- Car Parks and Vehicle Entry Points: AI-based licence plate and vehicle detection combined with high frame rate capture provides actionable data at vehicle access areas without requiring a dedicated ANPR camera.
- Industrial Sites and Critical Infrastructure: The IK10+ and IP6K9K-rated housing withstands harsh wash-down and impact conditions common in industrial environments, while AI analytics reduce the operator workload on busy sites.
- Large Open Areas Requiring Zone Flexibility: The motorised varifocal lens allows coverage zones to be reconfigured remotely during commissioning or after a site layout change, without ladder access or physical camera adjustment.
Why Choose the XNV-6123R
The XNV-6123R occupies a practical position between a standard fixed-lens outdoor dome and a full PTZ camera. The 12x optical zoom lens covers a focal range of 5.2-62.4mm and can be adjusted remotely without any pan or tilt mechanism, keeping installation straightforward while still offering significant framing flexibility. The 120fps high frame rate capability at 2MP sets it apart from many fixed-focal outdoor domes that cap at 25 or 30fps, making it genuinely useful for vehicle and pedestrian tracking scenarios. AI classification of faces and licence plates goes beyond simple motion detection, delivering structured alert data that integrates with compatible VMS platforms. The 150dB extreme WDR and WiseNRII noise reduction maintain image integrity in conditions where lower-grade sensors produce washed-out or grainy results. Available through Security Wholesalers, the XNV-6123R is suited to installers and integrators who need zoom flexibility and AI capability in a ruggedised dome housing without the cost or complexity of a full PTZ unit.
Buyer Decision Tips
Optical Zoom vs PTZ: The XNV-6123R uses a motorised varifocal lens for installation-time zone framing, not continuous pan and tilt tracking. Once the zoom level and angle are set, the camera monitors that fixed zone. If your application requires active operator-controlled tracking of moving subjects across a wide sweep, a PTZ camera is the appropriate choice. If you need a single camera to monitor one defined long-distance zone reliably and without ongoing operator input, the XNV-6123R is the more practical and cost-effective option.
Frame Rate and WDR Trade-off: The maximum 120fps frame rate is available only with WDR disabled. When WDR is enabled, the maximum drops to 60fps. For most perimeter and car park applications, 60fps with WDR active will be the preferred operating mode given the high-contrast outdoor lighting these environments typically involve. Confirm your VMS or recorder supports the selected frame rate and resolution combination before finalising the installation design.

Ideal Use Cases
Outdoor Perimeter Walls and Fences
The 12x optical zoom and 90m IR range allow a single camera mounted on a boundary wall to monitor the full depth of an approach, with AI-based intrusion detection triggering alerts when a person or vehicle enters a defined zone.
Car Parks and Vehicle Access Lanes
High frame rate capture at up to 60fps with WDR active, combined with AI vehicle and licence plate classification, provides detailed coverage of vehicle movement and access events without requiring a separate dedicated ANPR solution.
Industrial Sites and Loading Docks
IK10+ impact resistance and IP6K9K high-pressure wash-down protection make the XNV-6123R appropriate for industrial environments where cameras are exposed to physical contact, dust, and regular cleaning. The motorised zoom allows coverage to be adjusted to suit changing site layouts.
Critical Infrastructure and Utilities
Sites requiring both wide-area oversight and the ability to zoom into specific assets benefit from the XNV-6123R’s focal range. Behavioural analytics including loitering detection add a layer of event-driven alerting suited to sensitive or restricted locations.
Building Facades and Entry Points with Backlight
The 150dB extreme WDR engine handles entrances and facades where strong ambient light or direct sun creates challenging contrast. Face detection at these points is supported by the AI classification engine, enabling identification even at longer focal lengths.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You need a fixed-zone outdoor dome that can cover long distances, with AI classification of people, faces, vehicles, and licence plates, and the flexibility to set the focal length remotely during commissioning. The IK10+ and IP6K9K ratings make it appropriate for industrial or harsh outdoor environments.
- Choose a different model if: Your application requires active pan and tilt tracking of moving subjects across a wide sweep. The XNV-6123R is a motorised varifocal dome, not a PTZ camera. Once the zoom and angle are configured, the camera monitors a fixed zone. If live operator-controlled tracking is a core requirement, a full PTZ camera is the appropriate category.
- Choose a different model if: Your primary requirement is maximum resolution for very large-area identification. At 2MP, detail at the far end of the 62.4mm zoom will be more limited than a higher-resolution sensor at the same focal length. If licence plate or face capture at extreme distances is the primary objective, consider whether a higher-resolution sensor in the same class better suits the application.
FAQs
- Can the zoom on the XNV-6123R be adjusted after installation without physical access?
Yes. The motorised varifocal lens can be adjusted remotely via the camera’s web interface or a compatible VMS. This means the focal length and coverage zone can be reconfigured during commissioning or if site requirements change, without needing ladder access or physically moving the camera.
- What types of objects does the AI classification engine detect?
The XNV-6123R’s AI engine classifies people, faces, vehicles, and licence plates. It also supports behavioural event detection including intrusion into defined zones, loitering, and direction detection. These analytics operate onboard and generate structured metadata that compatible VMS platforms can use to filter and trigger alerts.
- What is the effective IR range, and does it change with zoom level?
WiseIR provides infrared illumination to approximately 90m. Importantly, WiseIR automatically adjusts the IR intensity based on the current zoom level, preventing overexposure of close subjects at wide focal lengths and maintaining adequate illumination at longer focal lengths. This makes night-time image quality more consistent across the zoom range compared to fixed-intensity IR systems.
- Is the XNV-6123R suitable for mounting in locations exposed to industrial wash-down?
Yes. The housing carries an IP6K9K rating, which covers resistance to high-pressure, high-temperature water jets. Combined with IP66 and IP67 ratings, it is appropriate for environments where cameras may be exposed to direct water spray or wash-down procedures, in addition to standard rain and weather exposure.
- What frame rate does the camera operate at when WDR is enabled?
When extreme WDR is active, the maximum frame rate is 60fps at 2MP resolution. With WDR disabled, the frame rate can be increased to 120fps. For most outdoor perimeter and car park installations where WDR is needed to handle backlight and high-contrast scenes, 60fps is the practical operating frame rate.
- What does the IK10+ rating mean for this dome camera?
IK10+ indicates the housing exceeds the standard IK10 impact resistance rating of 20 joules. This makes it appropriate for locations where the camera may be subject to deliberate interference or physical contact, such as car park ceilings, industrial wall mounts, or external building corners where accidental impact is possible.
- Where can I obtain this camera and supporting documentation?
The XNV-6123R is available through Security Wholesalers, and the official datasheet is linked in the Additional Information section below. Installers should consult the datasheet for full electrical specifications, mounting dimensions, and VMS compatibility details before finalising the installation design.
