SHTS LLC sources the BirdDog line — X4E/X5/XL Ultra full-NDI PTZ cameras with AI tracking, the KBD hardware controller, NDI-to-USB devices, and NDI players — through authorized distribution. If you’re moving production onto the network, BirdDog is the camera end of the IP chain, specced by a broadcast engineer who works in it.
A representative slice of the BirdDog line — PTZ cameras, control, and NDI I/O. Anything in the catalog can be quoted; send your model list or a full BOM.
X4E Ultra
Full-NDI 4K PTZ with on-board AI auto-tracking — the volume workhorse for studios, worship, and council chambers.
X5 Ultra
Step-up NDI PTZ with 20× optical reach for larger rooms, auditoriums, and long-throw stage shots.
XL Ultra
The flagship: 4K60, 20× zoom, auto-tracking, with 12G-SDI, HDMI, SFP+ fiber, and full NDI on one camera.
KBD
Hardware PTZ control surface with a 1280×720 integrated screen — joystick control over the whole NDI camera fleet.
POD
PoE-powered NDI-to-USB device — puts any NDI camera into Zoom, Teams, or Meet as a native webcam.
PLAY
Compact 4K NDI playout box — drive displays, confidence monitors, and signage straight off the NDI network.
An NDI camera plant is a network design problem as much as a camera choice — PoE budgets, switch config, bandwidth, and control all have to line up. We spec the whole chain, one BOM, one quote.
An EIC sizes your PoE budget, bandwidth, and NDI vs HX3 choices per camera — and pairs it with the right Netgear AV switching.
X4E for volume installs, X5 for reach, XL Ultra when you need SDI and fiber too — quoted against your rooms, not a wish list.
BirdDog alongside Netgear AV switching, Magewell converters, monitoring, and cabling — sourced together, quoted fast, delivered complete.
Send your room count and camera positions — or a full spec — and we’ll size the BirdDog build and quote it fast.
