Overview

Streaming has never been clearer or more flexible thanks to the BG-4KND-12XUHP camera. With Network Device Interface (NDI) technology and 4K 60Hz resolution at your disposal for an amazing price, this camera is a great option for sharing every moment and detail of the action with your audience.

The amazing quality of this camera comes from its Sony CMOS sensor and NDI|HX. The camera is also auto discoverable and can output via USB 3.0, HDMI, and NDI|HX simultaneously for maximum flexibility with other equipment and accessories. With enhanced 12x optical zoom, no quality is lost even at full zoom. With all these advanced features put together, this is one of the best 4K PTZ cameras on the market for this price point.

Doctors, clergy, venues, and performing artists trust the BG-4KND-12XUHP camera for its incredible hardware features as well as exceptional technical support from BZBGEAR. This camera is a great option for studio recordings, broadcasting houses of worship, sporting events, concerts, business meetings, lectures, or other large-scale broadcasts.

What is NDI and NDI|HX2?

Network Device Interface (NDI) is a high performance AV over IP standard that allows anyone to use real time, ultra low latency video on existing IP video networks. The NDI open protocol enables professionals to share video through a local area network (LAN) with video-compatible devices. With a single ethernet cable connection, professionals can merge all stages of production from start to finish. That way, all production tasks and processes will be united, so accomplishing a creative vision will be simple. With the NDI 5.5 tool-kit, users will also be able to connect any audio device as an NDI source with NDI’s Audio Direct tool. This adds audio over IP to NDI’s revolution.

NDI|HX2 is an updated version of NDI|HX1. NDI|HX2 also compresses the bandwidth, but is more efficient than NDI|HX1. With compressed bandwidth, users can have more devices on their LAN without running into latency issues. NDI|HX2 provides good quality output, low bandwidth and medium latency. The main difference compared to NDI|HX1 is that HX2 is truly a native NDI stream - all the way from the source device to the destination. This means it is a 'cleaner' implementation than HX1 and can potentially be more reliable, provide lower latency and give a more flexible connection which shares all the usual features of NDI. Learn more about NDI technology

Camera & Output

The heart of this device is its outstanding optical sensor. The incredible image quality of this camera is delivered by the 1/2.5 Inch SONY CMOS Sensor. CMOS sensors provide much faster image processing than other camera sensor technologies like CCD. With 12x optical zoom and 80.4° field of view, making sure that capturing every angle and detail is never a problem for the BG-4KND-12XUHP. With PoE (Power over Ethernet) support the need for a power supply is eliminated, allowing power, video, and control signals to be transmitted over a single category cable.

This camera supports ONVIF, RTSP, and RTMP protocols. These allow the device to stream directly onto websites like Facebook and YouTube. It is also compatible with Zoom, Cisco Webex, Instagram, Skype, and Google Meet. The BG-4KND-12XUHP utilizes H.264 and H.265 video compression for high-quality, low bandwidth video.

Control & Connectivity

The BG-4KND-12XUHP can be controlled via WebGUI, NDI, IR remote, as well as cascadable RS232/485 (VISCA/Pelco). The camera also features an onboard dial which allows users to set the output resolution. The camera has 255 preset positions, with 10 presets being available via remote control.

In addition to HDMI, USB 3.0, and NDI|HX outputs this camera includes a 3.5mm jack for embedding stereo audio. The device is designed for various orientations, including options for ceiling, wall, and tripod mounting.

This camera supports SRT, enabling high-quality, low-latency video to be sent reliably over the internet.
