This Datavideo BC-15PN 4K NDI-HX POV Camera is designed for a variety of purposes. Suitable for multi-camera and broadcast functions and supporting ally, the camera's 4K CMOS sensor provides a sharp and vibrant image that can be delivered via HDMI or streamed over Ethernet. This upgraded version of this model supports NDI-HX output for remote control and total integration into networked video ecosystems. Included with the camera are a 6mm lens and a 2.8mm lens, with fixed focus and exceptionally deep depth of field, there is no need to pull focus.

Control the camera manually, from buttons on the back, and view the OLED display screen to help navigate the menu system. You can also control the camera using an optional RMC CCU, or the PTZ View Assist App. The camera powers from the included AC power adapter, of for more flexibility or freedom, you can power the camera using PoE (IEEE802.3af), so with a PoE router or switch, you can power, control, and stream from the camera anywhere you can run a Cat 6 cable.

Compact Design: Small box design makes it flexible to be mounted anywhere. Though it is compact, it doesn't compromise on quality. 1/2.3" 4K CMOS sensor captures high-quality images and incredible details of the subject.

4K CMOS Sensor: With 60/50P output, the BC-15PN is an excellent camera for capturing eSport applications.

Fixed Lenses: Swap between the included 6mm and 2.8mm fixed lenses. The 6mm is an excellent choice for studio use, including chromakey, while the 2.8mm lens makes an excellent eSport, fixed POVE, or conference camera lens.

SRT Streaming Protocol: With dvCloud, you can now replace the RTMP protocol with SRT, which will fix most streaming issues you may have. SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) is better than RTMP because it handles problematic networks more efficiently.

H.264/H.265 Compression: During video production, you can stream simultaneously to live streaming platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch. With Datavideo's dvCloud, you can stream to up to 25 live streaming platforms simultaneously and automatically back up your video files on the cloud server.

Tally: A built-in tally light makes it easier for the talent to know which camera is live during a multi-camera live production.

Power over Ethernet: The BC-15PN supports PoE for easy installation. No need to find local power outlets or hire an electrician to install outlets wherever you want to mount your camera. Simply run a single Cat 6 cable to power your BC-15PN.

Remote or Manual Control: Control the camera via DVIP over Ethernet, optional RMC-300 CCU, the PTZ View Assist APP, or using physical buttons on the back of the camera.

What Is a WolfPack Fixed HDMI Matrix Switcher?

A WolfPack Fixed HDMI Matrix Switcher is a single-chassis device that routes any HDMI source — such as a cable box, satellite receiver, streaming player, or computer — to any TV or display in a building, simultaneously and independently. Unlike an HDMI splitter (which sends one source to many screens) or a simple HDMI switch (which selects one source for one screen), a matrix switcher lets you show a different channel on every TV at the same time. HDTV Supply has sold WolfPack fixed matrix switchers to sports bars, restaurants, hotels, churches, schools, and commercial AV integrators since 2000.

Fixed vs. Modular: Which Do You Need?

WolfPack comes in two families: Fixed and Modular. Fixed matrix switchers have a set number of inputs and outputs built into one box — for example, 4 inputs × 4 outputs (4×4) or 8 inputs × 8 outputs (8×8). They are plug-and-play, rack-mountable, and the right choice when your input/output count won't change. Modular matrix switchers use a chassis with swappable I/O cards, scaling from a few ports up to 80×80 or beyond. If you know exactly how many sources and screens you need today, a fixed unit is typically lower cost and simpler to deploy.

Available Fixed WolfPack Configurations

HDTV Supply offers WolfPack Fixed HDMI Matrix Switchers in the following sizes:

  • 4×2 — 4 sources to 2 displays
  • 4×4 — 4 sources to 4 displays
  • 8×8 — 8 sources to 8 displays
  • 8×9 — 8 sources to 9 displays
  • 16×16 — 16 sources to 16 displays
  • 16×32 via CAT6 — extends signal up to 450 feet over CAT6 cable

Select models include built-in video wall processing, multiview, and picture-in-picture (PIP) — allowing two or more sources to display on a single screen simultaneously.

Control Options for Fixed Matrix Switchers

Every WolfPack Fixed HDMI Matrix Switcher supports multiple control methods so you can integrate it into any environment:

  • Front-panel buttons — manual source switching directly on the unit
  • IR remote control — included with most models
  • RS-232 serial control — for integration with Crestron, Control4, AMX, and similar systems
  • TCP/IP (LAN) control — send hex commands over your network from any device
  • Web GUI — browser-based interface for switching without additional software
  • Free iOS and Android apps — available for select WolfPack models

For RS-232 hex command strings and TCP/IP control protocols, see our WolfPack HEX Code Reference and TCP/IP Control Guide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a fixed HDMI matrix switcher and a modular HDMI matrix switcher?

A fixed HDMI matrix switcher has a set number of HDMI inputs and outputs built into a single unit — for example, 8 inputs and 8 outputs. A modular matrix switcher uses a chassis with interchangeable I/O cards, so you can configure it for many different port counts and expand it later. Fixed units are simpler and more affordable; modular units offer flexibility for larger or changing installations.

Can a WolfPack fixed matrix switcher show different channels on different TVs at the same time?

Yes. A matrix switcher routes any input to any output independently. In an 8×8 configuration, all 8 displays can show 8 completely different sources simultaneously, or multiple displays can share the same source — in any combination you choose.

Can I control a WolfPack fixed matrix switcher from a Crestron or Control4 system?

Yes. WolfPack Fixed HDMI Matrix Switchers support RS-232 and TCP/IP control, which are standard integration protocols supported by Crestron, Control4, AMX, and other third-party control systems. HDTV Supply provides hex command strings and driver documentation to support custom integrations.

What resolution do WolfPack Fixed HDMI Matrix Switchers support?

Resolution support varies by model. WolfPack fixed matrix switchers are available in 1080p (Full HD) and 4K 30Hz configurations. Select 4K models also support HDR and HDCP 2.2. Always check the individual product specification sheet for confirmed resolution, color depth, and HDCP version.

How far can I run HDMI from a WolfPack fixed matrix switcher?

Standard HDMI outputs on fixed matrix switchers support runs up to approximately 25–50 feet depending on cable quality and resolution. The WolfPack 16×32 model transmits over CAT6 cabling for distances up to 450 feet per run. For longer distances with other fixed models, HDMI extenders can be added at each display.

What is the best HDMI matrix switcher for a sports bar?

For sports bars with up to 16 TVs, a WolfPack Fixed 16×16 HDMI Matrix Switcher is a popular choice — it handles 16 independent sources (cable boxes, satellite receivers, streaming devices) and routes any of them to any TV. For larger venues with 20–80+ TVs, HDTV Supply's WolfPack Modular Matrix Switchers or AV Over IP systems are typically the better fit. Call 833-WOLFPACK (833-965-3722) for a free consultation.
