HDBaseT PTZ camera designed for integration with Datavideo HS-1500T and HS-1600T production systems. The PTC-140T delivers Full HD imaging, flexible zoom, and single-cable connectivity for streamlined installation and operation.
The PTC-140T uses a 1/2.8 inch CMOS sensor to capture 1920x1080 Full HD video. In addition, it records at up to 60fps, which helps produce smooth motion for live events and broadcasts. Moreover, you get a 20x optical zoom for clear close-ups from a distance, paired with a 10x digital zoom when you need additional magnification.
The camera employs HDBaseT technology so all video, control data and power travel over a single CAT6 “network cable”. Therefore, installation becomes easier and cable runs stay cleaner. Furthermore, when used with the Receiver Box, the HDBaseT link can reach up to 100 meters, enabling flexible placement of cameras around a venue or studio.
PTC-140T supports advanced 2D/3D digital noise reduction. As a result, it reduces image noise in less-than-ideal lighting, producing clearer and smoother footage in low-light or challenging conditions.
The camera includes a built-in streaming encoder that supports H.264 and H.265 video compression. In practice, this lets the PTC-140T encode up to two simultaneous streams for direct delivery to cloud services or streaming platforms.
You can control multiple PTC-140T units with Datavideo controllers. For example, the RMC-180 offers an ergonomic joystick and tactile button layout, making it easy to set up and operate up to four PTC-140T cameras for live productions. Meanwhile, the RMC-300C works together with an iPad or Android tablet to control up to 24 PTC-140T cameras, which suits larger multi-camera setups.

Question: Can I control multiple PTC-140T cameras from a single controller?
Answer: Yes. The RMC-180 can set up and control up to four PTC-140T cameras with an ergonomic joystick and tactile buttons. For larger systems, the RMC-300C paired with an iPad or Android tablet can control up to 24 PTC-140T cameras.
Question: Does the HDBaseT connection carry power as well as video and control signals?
Answer: Yes. HDBaseT on the PTC-140T transmits video, control data and power over a single CAT6 “network cable”, simplifying cabling and installation. When you add the Receiver Box, the HDBaseT link can reach distances up to 100 meters.
Question: Which streaming formats and how many streams can the camera send?
Answer: The PTC-140T supports H.264 and H.265 compression via its built-in streaming encoder and can output up to two simultaneous streams to cloud services or streaming platforms.
Question: What accessories come with the PTC-140T to help with installation?
Answer: The package includes two ceiling mount brackets (A and B), six M3*4mm ceiling mount screws, a UV filter, a DC 12V power adaptor with power cord, a braided safety cable, an IR remote controller, and an RS-232 DB9 9 Pin to 8 Pin Mini DIN cable to support various installation and control scenarios.
