PTZOptics Link 4K PTZ Camera with 12x Zoom (Grey)
SKU PT12X-LINK-4K-GY PTZOptics
Description
The PTZOptics Link 4K puts broadcast-quality PTZ video onto your network the way Dante puts audio there. Because it speaks Dante AV-H, the camera is discovered and routed alongside existing Dante devices from one management platform. The 12x model keeps that networked approach in a wider-framing camera.
Dante AV-H at the core
Dante AV-H lets the Link 4K send video across the Dante network natively, with audio from its 3.5mm input travelling on the same network. Syncing to the Dante clock leader keeps that audio and video aligned, and routing and configuration live in the Dante platform you already use.
Connect it however your gallery works
The camera offers SDI, HDMI, USB and IP outputs, and reaches 4K at 60fps over HDMI, IP and Dante AV-H, and up to 4K at 30fps over USB. Whether the room runs on a hardware switcher, a production PC or a network feed, one Link 4K covers it.
12x zoom for wider shots
The 12x optical zoom gives the Link 4K a wider working range, comfortable framing subjects at shorter distances while still resolving 4K detail.
Hands-off subject tracking
On-camera auto-tracking needs no separate computer to run. It can single out one presenter with others in shot, move between presenters at the press of a button, and follow a subject up to 61.6 m (202 ft) away, so a production can keep the subject framed without someone on the camera.
Position and drive it to suit the room
Automatic video inversion detects the mounting orientation, so the camera works upright, inverted or off to the side without manual setup. It can be run from OBS, vMix, Wirecast, TriCaster and other software, from PTZOptics joystick controllers, or remotely through tools such as Zoom, and can stream directly to platforms like YouTube and Facebook. A web UI with built-in tutorials and free PTZOptics software, including the Camera Management Platform, make it approachable, and wide dynamic range plus 3D noise reduction keep images clean under mixed lighting. Every unit ships with a 5-year parts and labour warranty.
