Vaddio RoboSHOT 40 UHD - 4K OneLINK Bridge Express PTZ System (Black)

Product Overview

The Vaddio RoboSHOT 40 UHD OneLINK Bridge Express System in black (999-9952-270) delivers broadcast-quality 4K UHD video for live production, corporate broadcast, house of worship, and large-venue AV applications. It pairs the RoboSHOT 40 UHD 4K PTZ camera with the OneLINK Bridge Express interface, extending power, video, and control over a single Cat cable up to 328 ft. The RoboSHOT 40 UHD captures native 2160p/30 (3840x2160) from a back-illuminated 1/2.5" Exmor R CMOS sensor, with 20x optical zoom, 30x lossless zoom in 4K, and 40x zoom in HD — making it one of the highest-zoom 4K PTZ cameras available for commercial AV integration.

Product Description

The RoboSHOT 40 UHD simultaneously outputs HDMI, HDBaseT, 3G-SDI/BNC, and IP streaming — all outputs are active simultaneously without requiring selection, so the camera can feed a monitor, a recording system, and a streaming encoder at the same time. Genlock input enables synchronization across multiple cameras in a multi-camera broadcast production. Vaddio's next-generation silent motors and Tri-Synchronous Motion algorithms deliver smooth, jitter-free pan and tilt motion at up to 120°/sec across a 320° pan range and 120° tilt range. The OneLINK Bridge Express adds USB 3.0 output for UC platform integration, along with a configurable audio matrix with AEC for clean conferencing audio. The system is TAA-compliant, making it eligible for U.S. government procurement. For cameras, mounts, and accessories from the full Vaddio line, visit creationnetworks.net/collections/vaddio.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum zoom of the RoboSHOT 40 UHD?
20x optical zoom; 30x lossless in UHD 4K (3840x2160); 40x in full HD (1920x1080). This makes it well-suited for large venues where the camera must be placed far from the subject.

Does the RoboSHOT 40 UHD support 4K output over all connections simultaneously?
The camera provides simultaneous HDMI, HDBaseT, 3G-SDI, and IP streaming outputs. HDBaseT carries 4K; the OneLINK Bridge Express converts the HDBaseT signal for HDMI and USB 3.0 output, supporting up to 1080p60 over USB.

What is genlock and why does it matter?
Genlock allows multiple cameras to synchronize to a common reference signal. This eliminates frame-rate conflicts in multi-camera production environments, such as broadcast studios, houses of worship, and live event venues.

What cable infrastructure is required?
A single Cat 5e cable (up to 230 ft) or Cat 6 cable (up to 328 ft) runs from camera to the OneLINK Bridge Express, carrying power, video, and control. No additional cabling is required at the camera location.

Is this system compatible with Zoom, Teams, or Cisco Webex?
Yes. The USB 3.0 output on the OneLINK Bridge Express presents as a UVC device, compatible with any USB-based conferencing platform.

Is the RoboSHOT 40 UHD TAA compliant?
Yes. It carries CE, FCC, and TAA certifications, making it eligible for U.S. government and federal procurement.

What is included in the system?
RoboSHOT 40 UHD camera (black), Thin Profile Wall Mount with mounting hardware, Vaddio IR Remote Commander, OneLINK Bridge Express Interface, 48V power supply, 12V power supply, EZCamera RS-232 Control Adapter, 6 ft USB 3.0 cable (Type-A to B), 4x 3-position phoenix connectors, and Quick-Start Guides.
