Vaddio RoboSHOT 30E HDBT OneLINK HDMI - 30x PTZ Camera System for Large Rooms (White)

Product Overview

The Vaddio RoboSHOT 30E HDBT OneLINK HDMI System is a 30x optical zoom PTZ camera designed for large conference rooms, lecture halls, auditoriums, and houses of worship. The RoboSHOT 30E HDBT camera connects to the OneLINK HDMI receiver via a single Cat-5e or Cat-6 cable up to 328 ft, extending power, video, and control without additional cable runs. Simultaneous HDMI and IP H.264 streaming outputs make it suitable for integration with dedicated video codecs and IP streaming workflows in commercial AV deployments.

Product Description

The RoboSHOT 30E HDBT is part of Vaddio's Elite Series and is built around a 1/2.5-type Exmor R CMOS sensor with 2.14 megapixels of effective resolution. The 30x optical zoom covers a 65° horizontal field of view on the wide end and narrows to 2.3° at full telephoto — enabling tight framing of presenters or subjects at distances of 40–70 ft common in auditoriums and large meeting spaces. The camera's low-light performance is rated at 0.1 Lux (F1.6, 50IRE, 1/30 sec), making it well-suited for rooms with variable or lower ambient lighting.

The OneLINK HDMI receiver bridges the HDBaseT signal from the camera to an HDMI output, allowing direct connection to dedicated video conferencing codecs from Cisco, Polycom, and similar manufacturers. IP streaming is available simultaneously, supporting recording and distribution workflows. Power, video, and RS-232 control all travel over a single Cat-5e cable (up to 230 ft) or Cat-6 (up to 328 ft), minimizing cable runs in permanent installations. The camera is remote-managed via a built-in web server, Telnet, and RS-232, and integrates with commercial AV control systems. For larger format solutions, see the full Vaddio lineup at Creation Networks.

Silent BLDC direct-drive motors provide smooth, quiet pan and tilt movement across a ±160° pan and +90°/–30° tilt range with 100 programmable presets and Tri-Sync motion for coordinated positioning.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the OneLINK HDMI receiver and what does it do?
The OneLINK HDMI receiver accepts the HDBaseT signal from the RoboSHOT 30E HDBT camera over a single Cat-5e/6 cable and outputs HDMI for connection to a video conferencing codec (Cisco, Polycom, etc.) or display. It also handles camera power and RS-232 control over the same cable.

Is this system compatible with Cisco and Polycom video conferencing systems?
