Evota C12U PTZ Camera

The Evota C12U is a Full HD video conferencing camera built for meeting rooms, classrooms, and studio setups. It’s a PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) camera, which means it can turn side to side, tilt up and down, and zoom in — all controlled remotely — so you can capture the whole room or focus on one person without touching the camera.

It records in Full HD 1080p at up to 60 frames per second, giving smooth, natural-looking video for live calls and recordings. The 12x optical zoom (plus 16x digital zoom) with a wide 72.5° lens lets you cover a large room or zoom in on distant details like a whiteboard without losing quality. The Panasonic HD CMOS sensor plus advanced 2D and 3D noise reduction keeps the image clean and clear even in dim lighting.

Setup is truly plug-and-play — it connects over USB 3.0 (also backward compatible with USB 2.0) and works instantly with Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android. Popular apps like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet recognize it automatically, no special drivers required. For professional installs, RS232/RS485 lets you control the camera over long distances.
