Datavideo - PTC-305GW

Datavideo PTC-305GW is a 4K PTZ camera designed for professional applications in the broadcasting and video production sector.

Thanks to the 1/1.8" Sony CMOS sensor and 8.42 Mpixel, it is able to return high-quality and very smooth images, even in low-light conditions. The zoom range includes 20x optical and 16x digital, with a 60° field of view in wide-angle mode. The video resolution reaches 4K at 60p with support for 12G-SDI and HDMI. The intelligent auto-tracking system automatically follows the moving subject, which is particularly useful for conferences and live events.

The camera also supports simultaneous streaming with RTMP(S), SRT, ONVIF and NDI protocols, facilitating transmission on platforms such as YouTube and Facebook. Compatibility with ONVIF Profile S ensures interoperability with video surveillance and production systems. Advanced remote control is possible via IR, Web GUI, RS-422 / RS-232, DVIP and NDI. PoE power supply reduces the number of cables required for installation, simplifying the setup.

Video outputs include HDMI 2.0, 3G-SDI, 12G-SDI and RJ45. Audio inputs include a 3.5 mm mini-jack with selection between MIC in and line in via Web UI. Supported control protocols are Pelco-D, Pelco-P, VISCA, VISCA over IP, DVIP, ONVIF and NDI. The camera allows streaming in H.264, H.265 and MJPEG with bitrates up to 50 Mbps.

Finally, the power supply is 12 V_DC 3A with consumption of 26 W.

In essence, this camera represents a versatile and powerful solution for those looking for quality, reliability and automation in a single platform.
