Panasonic AW-UR100 4K Outdoor PTZ Camera is built for permanent outdoor installations where weather resistance, long-range optical reach, and flexible signal transport all have to work at the same time. It combines a 4K MOS imaging system, a motorized 24x optical zoom lens, optical fiber output, 12G-SDI, 3G-SDI, and full IP streaming support — all inside an IP65-rated housing designed for year-round outdoor deployment at sports venues, worship campuses, outdoor stages, and city infrastructure positions.

The 1/2.5-type 4K MOS sensor delivers approximately 8.29 million effective pixels. The motorized 24x optical zoom spans 4.12 mm to 98.9 mm — a 35 mm equivalent range of 25 mm to 600 mm. That is real optical reach, not a digital crop, which matters when the camera position is fixed and the subject is far away.

Signal Transport Options

Optical Fiber 12G-SDI 3G-SDI NDI High Bandwidth NDI HX2 SRT RTMP / RTMPS RTSP / RTP H.265 / H.264 MPEG2-TS over UDP PoE++ IEEE 802.3bt

Key Features

24x Optical Zoom

25 mm wide to 600 mm tele in 35 mm equivalent. i.Zoom extends to 28x in UHD and 36x in FHD — real optical reach, not a digital crop.

Fiber + SDI + IP Simultaneously

Optical fiber, 12G-SDI, and 3G-SDI are available at the same time alongside SRT, NDI High Bandwidth, and NDI HX2 for IP workflows.

IP65 Outdoor Housing

Salt-resistant coating, built-in wiper, heater, and defroster. Rated -15°C to 45°C. Designed to stay in service through weather events.

4K MOS Sensor

1/2.5-type sensor at 8.29MP effective. Minimum illumination of 3 lx keeps the image usable in low-light outdoor environments.

Flexible Control

LAN IP control and RS-422 both supported. BBS and tri-level sync for frame-accurate integration with existing production infrastructure.

PoE++ Power

IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ compliant plus DC 12V to 21.8V input. Simplifies cabling when running power over existing network runs.

Why It Matters

Mixed infrastructure, one camera

Outdoor venues rarely run one transport standard throughout. Fiber, SDI, and NDI output simultaneously means broadcast, IT, and streaming teams each get the signal they need — no converter required at the camera position.

Optical reach without a lens kit

24x optical zoom at 600 mm equivalent covers sports sidelines, outdoor stages, and city infrastructure from a fixed mount — without trading image quality for distance the way a digital crop does.

Stays in service through weather

The wiper, heater, and defroster are built in — not optional accessories. At -15°C or in driving rain, the AW-UR100 keeps operating through live events without requiring someone to intervene at the camera position.

Future-proofed for IP migration

SRT and NDI HX2 support means migrating from SDI to network-based production later does not require replacing the camera. Switch the routing at the network level and the camera keeps working.

Use Cases

Sports Venues

Long-range sideline and end-zone coverage from fixed rooftop or tower positions at stadiums and arenas

Worship Campuses

Permanent outdoor coverage of campus events, parking areas, and overflow viewing locations

Outdoor Stages

Wide-to-tele zoom covers full stage and tight performer shots from one permanently rigged position

Remote Production

SRT and NDI HX2 feed remote production workflows over IP without a dedicated satellite uplink

City Infrastructure

Salt-resistant IP65 housing handles coastal and high-humidity urban deployments through seasonal changes

University Campuses

Single camera covers large quadrangles, athletic fields, and outdoor event spaces from one fixed position
