SMTAV 12X PTZ Camera for Live Streaming

This SMTAV PTZ camera delivers 1080P Full HD video for broadcast, conference and event streaming. It combines a 12x optical zoom lens with a 72.5° wide-angle view and 16x digital zoom. A 1/2.7 inch CMOS sensor and 2D/3D noise reduction maintain image quality in low illumination. The unit supports PoE, USB 3.0, HDMI and IP streaming outputs.

Ideal for Single-Camera Productions

The camera suits operators who need remote pan, tilt and zoom control via IR remote, USB or IP protocols for live productions, houses of worship or lecture capture. It is not suited for buyers who require wireless connectivity, multi-camera synchronization or 4K resolution. Outdoor use demands verified weather protection not confirmed in the specifications.

PoE Plus USB 3.0 and HDMI Simultaneous Output

A single Ethernet cable carries power, control and low-latency video using H.264 or H.265 compression. USB 3.0 and HDMI outputs operate simultaneously with LINE IN audio embedding for direct mixer or software integration. The dual power design accepts PoE 802.3af or the included adapter for flexible deployment.

Questions about this item

What mounting hardware does the 72.5° wide-angle PTZ camera require?

The camera body has no built-in mounting location, so a compatible bracket or ceiling mount must be sourced separately.

How is the 12x optical zoom PTZ camera installed over a single Ethernet cable, and what step is often missed?

Connect the Ethernet cable to a PoE 802.3 af switch or injector for power, control and IP streaming; the step often missed is enabling ONVIF or RTSP/RTMP/SRT in the camera web UI so vMix, OBS or Zoom can discover the stream.

Which replaceable component keeps the 1080P CMOS sensor performing in low illumination over time?

The IR remote control uses replaceable button-cell batteries; the camera itself has no user-serviceable parts, so sensor performance is maintained by keeping the lens clean and the firmware current.
