PTZOptics Link 4K PTZ Camera
Ready to expand your Dante setup? With Dante AV-H™ and the latest auto-tracking features, the Link 4K integrates seamlessly into even the most complex Dante design or workflow. Combining broadcast-quality performance with the ease of Dante discovery, setup, and management, the Link 4K simplifies and professionalizes any video production installation.
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 device management are handled through one easy-to-use platform. The Link 4K automatically synchronizes to your Dante system's clock for seamless audio and video synchronization and is capable of natively outputting Dante AV-H video across your network, along with audio sources connected to the 3.5mm audio input.
Every Link 4K camera features SDI, HDMI, USB, and IP output for unparalleled performance and versatility. The Link 4K delivers 4K at 60 fps over HDMI, USB, and IP. Using Dante technology, the Link 4K can also deliver 4K at 60 frames per second over Dante AV-H.
The Link 4K features built-in auto-tracking capabilities, eliminating the need to run software on another computer, so crews no longer need a camera operator. With 12x, 20x, and 30x optical zoom, the Link 4K fits seamlessly into any production scenario.
Control your production from behind the scenes—or right in front of them. The Link 4K's automatic tracking can lock on to a specific person, even when others are in the frame. Users can switch between presenters on stage with just one click. The Link 4K can track people up to 300 feet away.
In addition to the Link 4K's auto-tracking features, users also have access to our latest web UI, which has been updated to provide everything you need in one simple menu. Nearly every feature in the web UI has a learning function, perfect for beginners navigating the settings for the first time.
Mount your PTZOptics Link 4K camera above, below, or to the side of the action to capture the ideal view every time. The Link 4K's automatic video inversion feature detects the camera's orientation, saving time during installation and setup.
