AIDA PTZ-X12-NDI

Starting at $1,595

The AIDA PTZ-X12-IP is a full-HD PTZ broadcast camera featuring IP streaming technology by NDI Hx, RTSP, or RTMP in addition to the SDI, HDMI, and USB connections. Integrated RS232 and VISCA over IP camera control make it compatible with virtually any IP camera controller on the market so it can blend into your existing workflow. 

For example, using a PTZ camera can enhance your sports coverage, because it can capture angles of the action that a camera operator cannot. Collect wide shots from your PTZ camera and use a switcher to bounce between close shots of the action that your camera operator captures. 

The AIDA PTZ-X12-NDI features 12x zoom capabilities while still transmitting HD video even at such close distances, also available in 20x. You can’t beat the price point for a PTZ camera this capable. 


Nimbus WiMi 6220 Wireless Encoder / Transmitter

Starting at $2,963

With the Nimbus WiMi6220 Wireless System, you can encode and transmit HD video over distances up to 5,000 ft. with 80ms latency. The transmitter encodes all resolutions of video up to 1080p as an H.264 encoded signal and sends it to a decoder / receiver to output the signal as video.

The encoder and decoder both feature built-in 5 GHz wifi, so no additional network connection is required. The WiMi 6220 has 64 channels to pick from, each 80 Mhz wide, that means you can maintain a steady network connection even in a crowded stadium or on a remote sports field. 

The transmitter encodes and sends up to a 1080p60 signal side by side with intercom and ethernet data allowing the camera operator to communicate with the control room and the control room to shade a camera set up for IP control.

The transmitter is also capable of multicasting to up to four receivers at the same time over the same range and with the same near-zero delay and multiple pairs can operate in the same environment.

Make sure your production gear is up to remote production standards. For more information about any of the gear listed in this article, contact sales@usbroadcast.co
