Product Overview

The Vizrt PTZOFUCC NDI|HX Upgrade for PTZOptics Cameras is a software license that activates NDI|HX output on compatible PTZOptics cameras. Built for broadcast engineers and AV integrators, this license enables PTZOptics cameras to stream H.264 or H.265 compressed video directly over IP as native NDI|HX sources, connecting seamlessly to TriCaster production systems, vMix, and any NDI-compatible switching platform without external encoding hardware.

Product Description

PTZOptics cameras are among the most widely deployed PTZ cameras in broadcast, houses of worship, education, and corporate AV. This NDI|HX upgrade license activates the camera’s IP video output via firmware, transforming the camera into a network-discoverable NDI|HX source available to any compatible receiver on the local network. NDI|HX delivers broadcast-quality video using H.264 or H.265 compression, keeping bandwidth demands manageable across multi-camera production environments on standard gigabit Ethernet infrastructure. One license activates a single camera; large deployments require one license per camera unit. License is delivered electronically with no hardware shipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does every PTZOptics camera support NDI|HX activation?No. Only select PTZOptics models support NDI|HX via firmware upgrade. Confirm your specific model number with the PTZOptics compatibility list before purchasing.Is this a perpetual license or subscription?This is a perpetual, one-time license per camera. There are no recurring subscription fees.Can I use this camera with non-Vizrt NDI software?Yes. NDI|HX is an open protocol. The activated camera stream is compatible with any NDI-certified application, including vMix, OBS with NDI plugin, and Zoom NDI.Does this license need to be renewed?No. Once activated via firmware, the NDI|HX license is permanently enabled on that camera unit.What network speed is required?Gigabit Ethernet (1GbE) is recommended. NDI|HX’s compressed H.264/H.265 transport is designed to work within standard enterprise LAN bandwidth budgets.
