4K PTZ camera for IP streaming

The Sony BRCX400/W is a network camera built for live production, conferencing and remote monitoring. It captures 3840 x 2160 video through a 1/2.5 Exmor R CMOS sensor with approximately 8.5M pixels. Pan, tilt and zoom are motorised for remote framing. The white body includes HDMI and 3G-SDI outputs alongside IP streaming.

Network limits and protocol support

Video travels over IPv4 or IPv6 using TCP, UDP, RTP/RTCP, RTSP, HTTP, HTTPS and VISCA over IP. Power over Ethernet follows IEEE 802.3at, while a DC input accepts 10.8 to 13.2 V. The camera also supports DHCP, DNS, UPnP, ARP, ICMP and IGMP for integration into managed networks. Bandwidth and latency depend on the chosen codec and network infrastructure.

Sensor resolution decides fit

The 1/2.5 Exmor R CMOS sensor delivers 3840 x 2160 at 29.97p and 1920 x 1080 at 59.94p, with lower resolutions down to 640 x 360. Shutter speed ranges from 1/1 to 1/10000 second across 59.94 Hz, 50 Hz and 23.98 Hz systems. Buyers needing larger sensors, global shutter or higher frame rates at 4K should evaluate other models.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 4K or 1080p resolution for my conference room?

The camera captures 3840x2160 at 29.97p and 1920x1080 at 59.94p; choose 4K for maximum detail on large displays or 1080p for smoother motion on bandwidth-limited networks.

What does the 1/2.5 Exmor R CMOS sensor actually deliver in a meeting space?

Approximately 8.5M pixels feed 4K video at 29.97p or 1080p at 59.94p, with shutter speeds from 1 to 1/10000 sec for clear images under varying room lighting.

How do HDMI and 3G-SDI outputs limit the signal I can send to a recorder or display?

HDMI and 3G-SDI carry the same 3840x2160 or 1920x1080 resolutions the sensor produces, so the interface does not reduce the camera's native 4K or 1080p output.
