Marshall Electronics, a leading provider of broadcast quality cameras and display monitors, announces the release of its first 4K(UHD) camera to market. The new CV612HT-4K Pan-Tilt-Zoom Camera produces up to 3840x2160p resolution from a high performance nine Megapixel sensor. Making use of the latest HDBaseT technology, users can run one Cat5e/6 cable to camera location, carrying sharp uncompressed video, camera control, and PoE (48V Power over Ethernet).
“Integrators and design engineers have been asking us for an easy one-cable-to-camera setup,” explains Tod Musgrave, Director of HD/4K Cameras at Marshall, “HDBaseT provides uncompressed UHD video transmission with very low latency.”
The Marshall CV612HT-4K Broadcast A/V Camera is built around a nine megapixel ½-inch sensor in a durable PTZ housing designed for smooth simultaneous four-axis control of pan-tilt-zoom-focus. The CV612HT-4K supports ultra clear 4K(UHD) 2160p video, as well as standard HD 1080p/1080i/720p resolutions, which is designed for infrastructure ready, for 4K, or installations that seek to future-proof technology. Common applications would include distance learning, corporate events, public speaking, live performances, and house of worship.
The CV612HT-4K allows for broadcast adjustable settings such as white balance, dynamic range, exposure, iris control, gamma, red/blue gain, black level and other operational adjustments.
Marshall's new PTZ UHD camera is compatible with most integrated control systems, supporting remote operation and control via RS232/RS422 using common protocols. Crestron modules and Visca/Pelco command lists are available for handshake setup and compatibility.
The recommended setup includes the Marshall VS-PTC-200 fully integrated PTZ Joystick Controller, which can control up to seven cameras via RS232 or up to 255 cameras via RS422 with one-button controls, simultaneous four-axis operation, 128 preset locations, adjustable transition speeds, flippable images and switchable directional joystick control.
The CV612HT-4K can also be used as a track and follow camera with seamless selection and setup included in the award winning Perfect Track auto tracking software from DYCAP. For more information on DYCAP's Perfect Track Software, .
