Add video to a Dante installation without building a separate video path: the PTZOptics Link 4K is a professional PTZ camera that behaves as a native Dante device. Thanks to Dante AV-H, discovery, set-up and routing follow the same workflow as the rest of your Dante system. This 20x version carries a versatile optical range alongside that networked pipeline and the line’s on-camera auto-tracking.

One device on your Dante system

With Dante AV-H the Link 4K outputs video onto the Dante network natively, and carries audio from its 3.5mm input across the same network. It syncs to the Dante clock leader so sound and picture stay in step, and everything is managed from one platform rather than a standalone video setup.

One camera, every connection

Alongside Dante, the camera provides SDI, HDMI, USB and IP, and delivers 4K at 60fps over HDMI, IP and Dante AV-H, and up to 4K at 30fps over USB. That range lets a single Link 4K slot into a hardware switcher, a software gallery or a USB capture chain as the job requires.

20x zoom for flexible framing

The 20x optical zoom sits between the line’s wide and long-reach models, giving room to tighten onto a subject across mid-size and larger spaces while keeping 4K clarity.

Presenter tracking built into the camera

Auto-tracking is handled on the camera, with no companion computer to run. It can hold onto a single presenter while others share the frame, switch presenters at the press of a button, and stay with a subject up to 80.5 m (264 ft) out — letting a small team cover movement without a camera operator.

Install freedom and open control

Automatic video inversion reads the camera’s orientation, so it can be fitted above, below or beside the action with no manual flipping. Control comes through OBS, vMix, Wirecast, TriCaster and similar software, PTZOptics joystick controllers, or remotely via tools such as Zoom, with direct streaming to platforms like YouTube and Facebook. A tutorial-equipped web UI and free PTZOptics software, including the Camera Management Platform, support day-to-day use, while wide dynamic range and 3D noise reduction hold image quality in tricky light. A 5-year parts and labour warranty is included.
