Combining the simplicity and control of a PTZ camera with NDI | HX 3 protocol, the NewTek PTZ3, in white, provides video professionals, technology managers, and A/V system integrators with an HD video PTZ camera for remote learning, hospitals, meeting rooms, and studios. The PTZ3 features a 20x optical zoom with 2x digital zoom capability and smooth, natural looking pans and tilts. It can send high-quality video with almost no latency while using less bandwidth than previous NDI protocols, and it features both SDI and HDMI outputs for local monitoring. Furthermore, the PTZ3 has a mini-XLR audio connection and includes an XLR to mini-XLR adapter for use with professional audio equipment.
The camera supports tally, control, power, audio, and video using a single network cable, allowing you to use the PTZ3 with any application that supports NDI. The single-cable connection simplifies placement of the camera, as you only have to run a single Ethernet cable, and do not need to run a separate power line. The included ceiling and wall mounts allow you to mount the PTZ3 out of the way, so you can control it remotely.
NDI Advantages
NDI Cameras can be easily integrated into any workflow and are automatically found once they join a network. The PTZ3 features integration of NDI | HX3, giving you the option to deliver low-latency transmission with reduced bandwidth, while maintaining the visually lossless standards NDI users' demand.
Audio
Use the professional mini-XLR audio input, in addition to the standard 3.5mm line-level, to deliver clean, professional-level audio directly from the camera into the NDI network. The XLR feature offers an array of connectivity options. When combined with NDI Audio Direct, the XLR audio connects to NDI receivers and virtually any audio software, providing unprecedented levels of creative flexibility.
Multicast
Optionally allow multiple destinations to receive video from your NDI | HX PTZ camera without individual point-to-point connections to conserve network bandwidth.
Preset Positions and Smooth Movement
PTZ3 offers synchronized preset starts and a new motion algorithm that helps create a natural look and feel to any production.
Single-Cable Connection
The NewTek PTZ3 can be added into any workflow with a single Ethernet cable for HD video up to 1080/60p, audio, PTZ presets and control, tally, and PoE.
Power over Ethernet
Streamline installation and reduce cabling complexity, optionally eliminating the need for a separate power supply connection with support for Power over Ethernet via POE+.
3G-SDI and HDMI Outputs
Optionally acquire and deliver video into conventional workflows with support for 3G-SDI and HDMI hardware outputs.
Program and Preview Tally
Receive tally notification from compatible NDI devices via physical LEDs when video output from your NDI | HX PTZ Camera is visible on Program and/or Preview.
Remote Control & Monitoring
Operate camera controls, monitor video, manage login credentials, and configure audio, video, and network settings from any compatible networked device using the Web-based user interface or NewTek NDI Studio Monitor.
Remote Recording
Capture live NDI | HX PTZ Camera video remotely from any compatible computer or device using NewTek NDI Studio Monitor.
Webcam Input
Designate your NDI | HX PTZ Camera as the video input source in popular desktop video applications like Google Hangouts, GoToMeeting, Skype, Skype for Business, WebEx, Zoom, and more, via the included software driver.
