4K PTZ Camera. The P400 combines an Ultra High Definition Sony CMOS sensor with BirdDog’s custom NDI silicon chip to deliver detailed 4K resolution up to 30 fps in a highly responsive, compact PTZ camera. Pan, tilt, and zoom functions can be controlled remotely over ethernet using the PTZ Keyboard or compatible third party software. The PTZ keyboard will need to be updated to v4.5.203-LTS to work with this camera, and the P400 will need to be updated to v4.5.206-LTS, but all copies will be fully updated before shipment.

Advanced Low Light Performance. In addition to an impressive Sony sensor and Sony Image Module, the P400 comes equipped with a built-in, retractable IR cut filter that automatically switches from day to night mode as needed for sharp, clear images even in near darkness.
Power Over Ethernet. This camera is capable of utilizing PoE+ from compatible network switches like the TP-LINK 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Poe+ Switch, but can also be powered by the included AC adapter.
Inputs & Outputs. The camera uses an RJ45 ethernet port for NDI, but also features simultaneous video output via 6G-SDI and HDMI. Audio input and output are available with two 1/8" (3.5mm) ports as well as genlock for syncing multiple cameras.
