Datavideo - PTC-155

PTC-155 is a Full HD PTZ camera designed for professional video production, equipped with a 1/2.8" Sony CMOS sensor and a powerful 30x optical zoom, in addition to a second lens. The latter one allows you to precisely identify the position of the subject and its movement trajectory, for smooth and natural tracking of the same. Thanks to its AI technology, the camera offers an auto-tracking system that allows you to automatically follow the moving subject, ensuring professional shooting without the need for manual intervention.

The Sony CMOS sensor guarantees high image quality, even in difficult lighting conditions, with a minimum sensitivity of 0.5 Lux. The iris control range can be automatic or manual, while 2D/3D digital noise reduction helps improve image clarity.

The PTC-155 supports a wide range of video formats, including 1080p at different refresh rates and 720p, and offers a number of output options including HDMI 1.3, 3G-SDI and UVC. It also features an RJ45 network interface with PoE support, which simplifies installation and power supply.

The camera is compatible with multiple control protocols, including Pelco-D, Pelco-P, VISCA, VISCA over IP, NDI, DVIP and ONVIF, allowing for versatile integration with existing production systems.

The built-in streaming system supports protocols such as RTSP, RTMP(S), ONVIF, Multicast, SRT and NDI|Hx3, allowing simultaneous transmission on multiple platforms. The PTZ also offers the possibility of recording to an SD card, providing a convenient solution for archiving and backing up video content. Remote control is possible via web interface, IR, RS-422/RS-232 and DVIP.

In terms of design, the PTC-155 features a compact size and a weight of 2.7 kg. The package includes an IR remote control, a wall mount bracket ceiling, a 12 VDC power adapter and a safety cable.
