The Panasonic AW-HE130 delivers the highest image quality of any integrated pan/tilt/zoom camera. The AW-HE130, with Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) and production-quality HD streaming, even lets you create a single cable solution — with camera power, IP control and streaming content all on one CAT5/6 cable.
Building on the legacy of the popular AW-HE120, the HE130 camera packs in new industry-leading features like a 3G-SDI output (up to 1080/60p); three newly developed 1/3-inch low-noise 3MOS sensors; stereo mic/line-level inputs for embedded and streaming audio; a Night Mode for hi-res, near IR video acquisition (using an optional IR-illuminator in the 850nm range); an Optical Image Stabilizer (O.I.S); and IP-Live Preview for remote control and management of up to 16 cameras via Browser.
Equipped with a fast F1.6-F3.4 20X zoom lens plus a new high-res 1.4X digital extender, the compact HE130 is ideally matched to demanding applications in sports, rental/staging, news, and business and institutional video. Remote controlled neutral density filters, DRS, shutter, and other functions enable optimal exposure for a wide range of shooting conditions. The camera’s fast, quiet integrated pan-tilt head covers a wide range of motion, with a pan range of ±175° and a tilt of -30° to 210°.
The HE130 supports both RS-422 serial control and IP control with dedicated RJ-45 connectors. It is compatible with current Panasonic controllers such as the AW-RP655, AW-RP120 and AW-HS50, and with many serial and IP control systems from Crestron, AMX and other vendors.
The HE130 supports both direct and Web-based IP remote control, so the camera can be securely operated and adjusted remotely from an ordinary browser-equipped PC—anywhere in the world.
