The PTZOptics Link 4K SDI/HDMI/USB/IP PTZ Camera with 30x Optical Zoom (Gray) is equipped with a 1/1.8" 4K CMOS 8.42MP sensor for sharp images. The optical zoom range of the built-in zoom lens is 30x, and the digital zoom range is up to 16x. With 255 programmable preset positions via serial, the camera can be set to swiftly move between positions using IP, RS-232, or RS-485 controllers that are sold separately or the included IR remote. It also includes a total light and photo booth functionality. The video output is compressed using H.265, H.264, or MJPEG, and up to two simultaneous streams can be transmitted using Dante AV-H, SRT, RTSP, and RTMP protocols.
Each Link 4K camera incorporates SDI, HDMI, USB, and IP output for unmatched performance and adaptability. The Link 4K supports 4K at 60 frames per second via HDMI, USB, and IP. Using Dante technology, the Link 4K can provide 1080p 60fps resolution over both Dante AV-H and SDI. The Link 4K's built-in auto-tracking capabilities eliminate the need for a camera operator, as there is no need to install software on a separate computer. With a magnification range of 12x, 20x, and 30x, the Link 4K is compatible with any production scenario.
Dante AV-H Support
Dante AV-H brings device interoperability and the power of Dante to H.26x endpoints. With Dante AV-H, all video and audio routing, configuration, and management of devices is done with one easy to use platform.
Pan, Tilt, Zoom, Track
Control your production from either behind or in front of the scenes. Even when other individuals are in frame, the Link 4K's auto-tracking can focus on a specific individual. Users can toggle between presenters on stage with the press of a button. The Link 4K is capable of tracking subjects up to 100 meters distant. In addition to the Link 4K's auto-tracking capabilities, users will have access to our most recent Web UI, which provides everything you need in a single interface. Ideal for novice producers navigating the settings for the first time, the Web UI includes tutorials for nearly all of its features.
Mounting Options
Mount your PTZOptics Link 4K camera above, below, or next to the action to capture the optimal perspective every time. The Link 4K's automatic video inversion detects the camera's orientation and reduces installation and configuration time.
Take Control
Users can control Link 4K cameras with video production software like OBS, Livestream Studio, Wirecast, vMix, mimoLive, or Tricaster, or with one of our hardware joystick controllers like the IP joystick, serial joystick, or SuperJoy. The camera control options are limitless, allowing you to manage your camera according to your workflow. The Link 4K cameras can be remotely controlled from anywhere in the world using NDI and cloud-based applications such as Zoom. Additionally, users can live transmit directly to content delivery networks like Facebook and YouTube.
