AIDA Imaging HD-NDI-200 – Full HD NDI|HX2 PoE POV Camera with HDMI

Product Overview

The AIDA Imaging HD-NDI-200 is a compact full HD NDI|HX2 POV camera designed for AV integrators and production teams that need reliable IP video delivery in a low-profile, mountable form factor. Built around a 1/2.8" progressive CMOS sensor, the HD-NDI-200 delivers 1080p60 video simultaneously over NDI|HX2, HDMI, and IP streaming protocols, making it one of the most flexible POV cameras in its class for conference rooms, houses of worship, broadcast studios, and distributed AV systems. PoE power delivery simplifies installation by eliminating separate power runs, and the pre-loaded NDI|HX license removes activation friction from the deployment workflow.

Product Description

The HD-NDI-200 carries AIDA's proven compact camera hardware and pairs it with NDI|HX2 for low-bandwidth, low-latency IP video transport over standard network infrastructure. Simultaneous output across NDI|HX2, HDMI, and IP allows the camera to feed multiple systems without signal splitting hardware. The 3.5mm TRS audio input enables a line-level audio source to be embedded into the NDI stream — useful for fixed-installation microphone inputs at podiums or presentation positions.

The C/CS mount lens interface ships with a standard 4mm CS lens; AIDA's full lens range is directly compatible. VISCA camera control integrates with production control systems and AV automation platforms. Power is supplied via PoE (with 12VDC DC input also available). The camera includes 1/4"-20 mounts on top and bottom for standard camera mounting hardware. A tally light is integrated adjacent to the lens for talent cuing. The web UI provides browser-accessible control of shutter, white balance, and image parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions

What NDI version does the HD-NDI-200 support?

NDI|HX2 (second generation), providing improved compression efficiency and lower bandwidth compared to original NDI|HX, with low latency over standard GbE network infrastructure.

Does the HD-NDI-200 require a separate NDI license purchase?

No. The NDI|HX license is pre-loaded at the factory. The camera is ready to stream NDI|HX2 out of the box without additional activation steps.

Can the HDMI and NDI outputs be used simultaneously?

Yes. NDI|HX2, HDMI, and IP outputs are simultaneously active.

What lens options are compatible?

The camera ships with a standard 4mm CS lens and accepts any C or CS mount lens. AIDA Imaging offers a range of compatible lenses including varifocal and longer focal length options.

How is camera control implemented in an AV system?

VISCA over IP for integration with production control systems and AV automation. Web UI browser access is also available for manual adjustment of image parameters.
