1 Beyond IV-CAM-P20-B – p20 Professional PTZ Camera, 20x Optical Zoom, Moon Gray

Product Overview

The 1 Beyond IV-CAM-P20-B is the long-reach professional PTZ camera with 20x optical zoom in Moon Gray — the operator-controlled counterpart to the intelligent IV-CAM-I20-B, providing maximum zoom reach for productions, broadcast studios, and large-space operator-directed PTZ applications where 12x zoom is insufficient and an operator or VISCA control system directs camera movement. PoE+-powered over a single CAT6 cable, it delivers high-resolution video over HDMI and USB-C with VISCA over IP control.

Product Description

Live event productions, broadcast studios, and large auditoriums where camera operators direct precise framing decisions need the highest optical zoom range to deliver tight close-ups from the maximum working distance. The IV-CAM-P20-B’s 20x optical zoom, combined with precise VISCA over IP and RS-232 control, provides the reach and control precision required for professional production camera applications in large spaces. Unlike the intelligent i20 which tracks autonomously, the p20 responds only to deliberate operator inputs — making it the correct choice for productions where camera direction is a creative or editorial decision rather than an automated tracking function. PoE+ single-cable installation simplifies deployment in large auditoriums and performance venues where running power conduit to high ceiling or balcony camera positions is costly.

Key Features

• 20x Optical Zoom: Maximum reach for large auditoriums, theatres, and production spaces requiring tight framing from a significant working distance.
• Operator and Control System Directed: VISCA over IP and RS-232 for precise deliberate camera control — ideal for productions where camera framing is an intentional creative decision.
• PoE+ Single-Cable Installation: 802.3at PoE+ eliminates power runs to difficult-access ceiling or balcony mount positions.
• HDMI and USB-C Outputs: Production switcher and UC system connectivity from one camera.

Typical Applications

• Houses of worship and performance venues with camera operators directing 20x zoom PTZ coverage from balcony or rear positions
• Auditoriums and large lecture theatres with operator-controlled production cameras covering a stage at 40–60+ foot distances
• Corporate broadcast studios requiring high-zoom operator-directed PTZ for executive and all-hands video production
• Legal and government proceedings requiring precise operator-framed PTZ coverage of a witness stand, bench, or podium at distance

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between IV-CAM-P20-B and IV-CAM-I20-B?
The i20 has autonomous AI auto-tracking and does not require an operator. The p20 is operator or VISCA-control-system directed with no AI tracking. For unattended conference rooms, specify the i20. For productions with deliberate camera direction, specify the p20. Contact Creation Networks.
