Panasonic AW-UE20 4K 3G-SDI/HDMI/IP/USB PTZ Camera with 12x Optical Zoom (White)

The Panasonic AW-UE20WP is a 4K PTZ camera designed to deliver high-quality video with flexible connectivity and control options. It features a 1/2.8" MOS sensor paired with a 12x optical zoom lens, allowing you to capture detailed images from a wide 71-degree field of view down to a narrow 6 degrees. This makes it ideal for environments where you need to zoom in on specific subjects without losing clarity, such as conference rooms, lecture halls, or live event spaces.

This camera outputs 4K video at 30 frames per second through HDMI and IP streaming, while also providing 1080p video via 3G-SDI and USB connections. The USB-B port supports UVC, so it can function as a plug-and-play webcam on both Windows and macOS systems, making it a versatile choice for video conferencing or streaming setups. It supports multiple streaming protocols including RTSP and RTMP, and uses efficient video compression formats like H.264 and H.265 to ensure smooth, high-quality streams even over limited bandwidth.

Remote control is straightforward with pan, tilt, and zoom functions accessible over IP, RS-232, or RS-422 interfaces. The camera’s wide movement range—170 degrees horizontally and 120 degrees vertically—allows you to cover large areas without needing multiple cameras. Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) simplifies installation by delivering both power and network connectivity through a single LAN cable, reducing clutter and setup time.

Audio embedding is supported, with mic and line input options, so you can integrate sound directly into your video feed. The AW-UE20WP is well suited for fixed installations where reliable, high-resolution video and remote operation are essential, such as in broadcast studios, corporate environments, houses of worship, or educational institutions.
