WallVIEW CCU HD-18 Overview
With the WallVIEW CCU HD-18 PTZ camera and CAT-5 cabling system, Vaddio delivers a solution that
allows for easy installation and integration. The camera is built around a 1.3 megapixel, 1/3” CCD with
an 18x optical zoom lens, making it the ideal choice for a wide range of high definition video applications.
In addition to the component HD output (720p, 1080i or 1080p), the camera comes with a simultaneous
composite SD output (NTSC or PAL).
Because the camera module is built around a CCD image sensor, the HD-18 is excellent in low-light
situations, with a 1.8 lux rating. In addition, the video signal to noise ratio output of the camera is greater
than 50dB, delivering clean, clear video.
The multi-element Wide Dynamic Zoom lens allows WallVIEW CCU HD-18 to capture a wide angle of
view (55.2°) enough to view everyone at a conference room table, as well as capture an individual from a
long distance (3.2°). The zoom range provides greater flexibility for a wide variety of applications. Pan
range is +170 to -170 degrees, and Tilt range is -30 to +90 degrees.
Paired with the HD-18 camera is Vaddio’s Quick-Connect CCU breakout box. Installed at the equipment
headend, the Quick-Connect CCU provides power, video and control up to 500 feet over three (3) CAT-5
cables. The CCU allows users to control a variety of image controls built into the camera, including iris,
red and blue gain, pedestal, knee, gamma, chroma and gain.
The WallVIEW CCU HD-18 is an exceptional camera system for integration projects, since no power
supply is required at the camera location. Use the WallVIEW CCU HD-18 for high definition camera
applications, such as houses of worship, corporate boardrooms, live event production and distance-
learning.
