Vaddio OneLINK Bridge – HDBaseT to USB AV Interface (999-9595-000)

Product Overview

The Vaddio OneLINK Bridge (999-9595-000) is a professional AV interface receiver that connects compatible Vaddio HDBaseT PTZ cameras to USB-based soft-client conferencing platforms over a single Cat-5e or Cat-6 cable. It simultaneously delivers HDMI, USB 3.0, IP streaming, and HD-SDI outputs from one interface unit, eliminating the need for separate signal converters or complex cabling infrastructure. Designed for enterprise conference rooms, higher education classrooms, and government facilities, the OneLINK Bridge integrates seamlessly with platforms including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Skype for Business, Cisco Webex, and Google Meet. At Creation Networks, it is available at a reduced sale price with expert support from our commercial AV team.

Product Description

The Vaddio OneLINK Bridge bridges the gap between HDBaseT PTZ cameras and USB-based conferencing endpoints by transmitting power, video, and control signals over a single structured-cable run. Compatible cameras include the RoboSHOT 12E HDBT, RoboSHOT 30E HDBT, RoboSHOT 20 UHD, RoboSHOT 40 UHD, RoboSHOT IW, and DocCAM 20 HDBT — all without requiring a dedicated power supply at the camera end. Signal transmission supports Cat-5e cable up to 230 feet (70 meters) and Cat-6 cable up to 328 feet (100 meters), making it suitable for mid-size to large-format rooms.

The unit delivers simultaneous outputs: uncompressed USB 3.0 video at up to 1080p/60, HDMI for local display feeds, HD-SDI for integration with broadcast or production infrastructure, and IP streaming for remote viewing and recording workflows. USB output is UVC and UAC class-compliant, meaning it is recognized as a plug-and-play camera and microphone by any standards-compliant conferencing application — no proprietary drivers required. The configurable audio matrix with Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) manages audio routing and room acoustics intelligently, reducing the complexity of audio DSP configuration in the broader system design. Four 3-position Phoenix connectors support line-level audio inputs and outputs, giving integrators flexible connectivity to room audio systems. The package includes the OneLINK Bridge interface unit, a 48V power supply unit, four 3-position Phoenix connectors, a 6-foot USB 3.0 A-to-B cable, an EZCamera RS-232 adapter, and a quick-start guide.

Key Features

• Single-cable HDBaseT connectivity — Runs power, video, and RS-232 control over one Cat-5e (up to 230 ft) or Cat-6 (up to 328 ft) cable, simplifying installation in finished spaces.
• Simultaneous multi-format outputs — Delivers HDMI, USB 3.0, HD-SDI, and IP streaming outputs concurrently to support display, conferencing, broadcast, and recording workflows from a single device.
• Uncompressed USB 3.0 at 1080p/60 — Provides full-bandwidth, uncompressed video to the host computer for the highest-quality soft-client conferencing experience without compression artifacts.
• Plug-and-play UVC/UAC compliance — Recognized automatically as a USB video and audio class device by Windows and macOS, eliminating driver installation requirements for IT-managed endpoints.
• Configurable audio matrix with AEC — Integrated Acoustic Echo Cancellation and audio routing matrix simplifies room audio management and reduces dependency on external DSP hardware.
• Broad camera compatibility — Supports RoboSHOT 12E HDBT, 30E HDBT, 20 UHD, 40 UHD, RoboSHOT IW, and DocCAM 20 HDBT, protecting your camera investment across room upgrades.
• Soft-client platform agnostic — Works with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Skype for Business, Cisco Webex, Google Meet, and any UVC-compliant conferencing application without platform-specific configuration.
• RS-232 camera control pass-through — Included EZCamera RS-232 adapter maintains full PTZ control from the host system through the same cable infrastructure.

Typical Applications

• Corporate conference rooms — Connects HDBaseT PTZ cameras to USB-based room systems or laptop-driven conferencing in executive and boardroom environments.
• Higher education classrooms — Enables lecture capture and remote instruction by bridging fixed PTZ cameras to cloud-based video platforms used by universities and colleges.
• Government and municipal facilities — Supports secure, standards-based video conferencing in hearing rooms, operations centers, and council chambers requiring reliable, low-maintenance AV infrastructure.
• Healthcare telemedicine rooms — Provides high-definition, low-latency video for clinical consultation, remote patient monitoring, and inter-facility collaboration.
• Broadcast and hybrid production — HD-SDI output allows the same camera to feed both a soft-client conferencing system and a broadcast or production switcher simultaneously.
• Distance learning and training centers — Bridges professional PTZ cameras to online learning management systems for consistent, high-quality video in instructor-led remote training programs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Which Vaddio cameras are compatible with the OneLINK Bridge 999-9595-000?
A: The OneLINK Bridge is compatible with the Vaddio RoboSHOT 12E HDBT, RoboSHOT 30E HDBT, RoboSHOT 20 UHD, RoboSHOT 40 UHD, RoboSHOT IW, and DocCAM 20 HDBT. It is not a universal HDBaseT receiver and requires a specifically supported Vaddio camera at the far end.

Q: What is the maximum cable distance supported by the OneLINK Bridge?
A: The OneLINK Bridge supports up to 230 feet (70 meters) over Cat-5e cable and up to 328 feet (100 meters) over Cat-6 cable. These distances carry power, video, and control signals simultaneously over the single cable run.

Q: Does the OneLINK Bridge require special drivers on the host computer?
A: No. The OneLINK Bridge is UVC (USB Video Class) and UAC (USB Audio Class) compliant, which means Windows and macOS recognize it as a standard USB camera and microphone without any proprietary driver installation.

Q: Can the OneLINK Bridge output to multiple destinations at the same time?
A: Yes. The unit delivers simultaneous HDMI, USB 3.0, HD-SDI, and IP streaming outputs, allowing the same camera feed to reach a local display, a soft-client conferencing application, a broadcast switcher, and a streaming encoder concurrently.

Q: What conferencing platforms work with the OneLINK Bridge?
A: Because the OneLINK Bridge is UVC-compliant, it works with any conferencing application that accepts a USB camera input. This includes Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Skype for Business, Cisco Webex, Google Meet, and similar platforms.

Q: What audio processing does the OneLINK Bridge provide?
A: The OneLINK Bridge includes a configurable audio matrix with built-in Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC). This handles common room audio challenges such as echo and feedback, reducing reliance on external DSP hardware in straightforward room deployments.

Q: What is included in the box with the OneLINK Bridge?
A: The package includes the OneLINK Bridge interface receiver, a 48V power supply unit, four 3-position Phoenix connectors for audio termination, a 6-foot USB 3.0 A-to-B cable, an EZCamera RS-232 adapter for serial camera control, and a quick-start guide.

Q: Where can I purchase the Vaddio OneLINK Bridge 999-9595-000?
