Bolin Technology B2-220 Overview

Capture professional HD video for your video conferencing, education, house of worship, or other video application with this black B2-220 HDMI/3G-SDI/USB/IP PTZ Camera with 20x Optical Zoom from Bolin Technology. This remotely controllable PTZ camera features a gimbal-style housing, and it allows you to capture up to 1080p60 resolution video and output via HDMI, 3G-SDI, USB-C, or IP dual streaming via its Gigabit RJ45 Ethernet interface. Additional features include a 20x optical zoom, an additional 16x digital zoom, a 55.8° angle of view, a ±170° panning range, a ±90° tilting range, auto or manual focus, a wide dynamic range, and serial/IP control. It also features a 3.5mm mic/line audio input and a durable magnesium alloy housing.

The low-noise 1/2.8" 2.13MP CMOS sensor ensures a high signal-to-noise ratio, while advanced 2D/3D noise-reduction technology further reduces image noise, so an even sharper image is delivered in low light. The RJ45 Ethernet port allows you to control and configure the camera via IP, and it also allows simultaneous dual streaming via IP for a live Internet stream. You can also output the video via USB with UVC support, making it easy to interface with a computer to send video and audio to a streaming or recording application. There is also an audio line input on the back to input stereo audio into your streams and video output.

The pan/tilt/zoom mechanism uses quiet, smooth movements, controllable using the included IR remote controller, ONVIF and VISCA-over-IP control, or the RS-232 input/outputs that support VISCA, Pelco-D, and Pelco-P protocols for use with a separately available controller. You can store up to 255 preset positions using an optional serial controller, or store six presets when using the included IR remote. You can power the camera using a networked PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) switch or the included power adapter. The camera also includes an RS-232 control cable.
