Vaddio RoboSHOT IW Clear Glass OneLINK Bridge - HDBaseT PTZ System

Product Overview

The Vaddio RoboSHOT IW Clear Glass OneLINK Bridge is an in-wall HDBaseT PTZ camera system designed for permanent installation in boardrooms, conference rooms, and commercial meeting spaces where a clean, low-profile aesthetic is required. This single-cable PTZ camera extension system carries power, video, and control over a single Cat-5e or Cat-6 cable, eliminating conduit runs and reducing installation complexity in both new construction and retrofit environments. ADA compliant PTZ camera mounting in wall cavities with a clear glass enclosure keeps the room appearance polished while maintaining full pan-tilt-zoom functionality. With simultaneous HDMI and IP streaming outputs, it integrates with a broad range of USB codec compatible PTZ camera workflows and room control systems.

Product Description

The Vaddio RoboSHOT IW Clear Glass OneLINK Bridge system (model 999-9966-180) combines an in-wall PTZ camera with Vaddio's OneLINK Bridge interface to deliver a complete, single-cable PTZ camera extension over HDBaseT. The clear glass front panel maintains architectural continuity in finished wall installations, making it a preferred choice for upscale conference rooms, government spaces, and executive boardrooms where exposed hardware is not acceptable.

HDBaseT technology transmits uncompressed HDMI video, camera control signals, and PoH (Power over HDBaseT) over a single Cat-5e cable to 230 ft (70m) or Cat-6 cable to 328 ft (100m). This eliminates the need for separate power supplies at the camera location and reduces cable pathways in the wall. The OneLINK Bridge connects directly to compatible Vaddio codecs and third-party USB conferencing endpoints, making it a practical HDMI IP streaming conference camera solution for both legacy and current AV infrastructure.

Simultaneous HDMI and IP streaming outputs allow the camera feed to reach both in-room displays and network-based recording or distribution systems at the same time, without external signal splitting. The system is ADA compliant, supporting installations where accessibility and low-projection mounting requirements apply. Control is available via IP, RS-232, or IR, and the camera integrates with industry-standard room control platforms including AMX, Crestron, and Extron.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What codecs and conferencing platforms is the RoboSHOT IW compatible with?

The RoboSHOT IW with OneLINK Bridge is compatible with USB-based conferencing codecs from vendors such as Cisco, Poly, Logitech, and others that accept a standard USB camera input. It also connects to Vaddio's own EasyUSB and HDMI-equipped systems. Verify codec compatibility with Vaddio's current interoperability documentation prior to installation.

Can this camera be installed as part of a new construction project or only in retrofit applications?

The in-wall design is suited for both new construction rough-in and retrofit installations in existing drywall. A standard single-gang or compatible wall box is required. Review Vaddio's installation guide for rough-in dimensions and back-box requirements before specifying.

Does the OneLINK Bridge provide power to the camera, or is a separate power supply needed at the camera location?

HDBaseT delivers power over the Cat cable from the OneLINK Bridge to the camera. No separate power supply is required at the camera end, which simplifies in-wall installation and reduces the number of conduit pathways needed.

What is the warranty on the Vaddio RoboSHOT IW Clear Glass OneLINK Bridge system?

Vaddio products are covered by a manufacturer's limited warranty. Contact Creation Networks at creationnetworks.net/contact or Vaddio directly to confirm current warranty terms for model 999-9966-180 and to register the product after installation.

Is the RoboSHOT IW system compatible with room control platforms like Crestron or AMX?

Yes. The camera supports IP, RS-232, and IR control interfaces. Vaddio publishes control drivers and integration modules for Crestron, AMX, Extron, and other major room automation platforms. Drivers are available through the respective control system manufacturer's module libraries or through Vaddio's support portal.
