Features
Pan/Tilt/Zoom CMOS video camera
equipped with a small built-in pan-tilt
head
• The camera unit is equipped with a 1/2.5-type
Exmor R CMOS sensor and an optical zoom
lens*
1
with pan/tilt/zoom features integrated
into a small built-in pan-tilt head. This versatile
camera can be used for various applications.
• The pan-tilt head can pan to the right or left by
1
70 degrees and tilt upward to 90 degrees and
downward to 20 degrees, which allows the
camera to remotely shoot wide areas.
• The camera pans and tilts at a speed of
be
tween 0.5 and 101 degrees (maximum
speed) per second, and it also pans and tilts at
a maximum speed of 300 degrees per second
in the preset operation.
Zoom performance for capturing distant
subjects
For BRC-X400/X401 and SRG-X402, in addition to
20×*
1
optical zoom, it uses Sony's 2×*
2
Clear
Image Zoom function and 2× Tele Convert
mode*
2
to achieve the equivalent of up to 80x
optical telephoto performance. Moreover, using
digital zoom together achieves the equivalent of
up to 480x telephoto performance.

Audio output
The camera is equipped with 2ch audio which is
applicable for microphone/line input.
Input audio signal is transmitted to HDMI/SDI
simultan
eously. Additionally, the signal is
transmitted to the IP network by with the
streaming function.
Video output
In addition to HDMI/SDI output, IP network
transmission can be performed simultaneously
by IP streaming function (SDI output does not
support 4K).
For IP streaming function, ITU-T H.264/H.265 is
ap
plied to video compression mode (video
codec) and it achieves high compression rate
while keeping the image quality. Also, it
decreases the network bandwidth load.
The network bandwidth load required for video
tr
ansmission decreases.
Moreover, the camera supports multi-streaming
ou
tput. Up to 3 codec modes can be selected.
Preset function
Up to 100 preset data can be stored in the VISCA
command and up to 256 preset data in the CGI
command.
On the PTZ Motion Sync function*

, pan, tilt, and
zoom work together to enable smooth preset
operations.
Equipped with RS-422 interface
The camera is equipped with RS-422 interface
which is the industry standard VISCA camera
protocol in external communication.
Equipped with PoE+ (Power over
Ethernet Plus)
The camera supports IEEE802.3at-compatible
PoE+ (Power over Ethernet Plus) and a single LAN
cable is used for power supply and control.
Compatible with VISCA over IP protocol
An IP connection can be established between
the camera and the remote controller.
Equipped with external video sync
function (BRC-X400/X401)
The camera is equipped with an external video
sync function to synchronize the camera images
on multiple cameras.
Equipped with tally lamp (BRC-X400/
X401)
The camera is equipped with a tally lamp that
instantly distinguishes cameras in use.
Supports network connection with RCP/
MSU (BRC-X400/X401)
Network connection to an optional remote
control panel (RCP) or master setup unit (MSU) is
supported.
Picture profile preset function (BRC-
X400/X401)
Picture profile presets from PP1 to PP6 can be
loaded. By using these presets, an image texture
gets close to the one shot with other cameras
with the picture profile function, and the camera
creates an image texture similar to the one of
cinematic film.

right of the address bar on your web browser.
When you use SSL connection for the first time
When you use SSL connection only by setting the
S
SL function to [Enable], you cannot access the
camera if the SSL function does not work properly.
In this case, you must reset the camera to the factory
se
ttings. (All settings will be initialized.)
To avoid this, check that SSL connection is possible
by
performing the following steps.
1 Set the SSL function to [Enable (Allow
HTTP connection for some clients)].
84
2 Click [OK] to close the web browser.
3 Display the viewer in SSL connection.
For details, see “When the SSL Function
is Used” (page 59).
4 After confirming that SSL connection is
possible, set the SSL function to
[Enable].
Even if the web browser is closed as SSL connection
is impossible, HTTP connection will be possible if
[Enable (Allow HTTP connection for some clients)] is
selected. First check the setting contents of SSL tab
in HTTP connection, then check the SSL connection
again.
If [Enable (Allow HTTP connection for some clients)]
i
s not selected, you will not be able to access the
camera when SSL connection becomes impossible.
In this case, press the reset switch on the camera for
5 seconds or longer to return to the factory default

Note
SSL is not available when [Certificate options]-[Use an
external certificate] is selected, or certificate and private
key password is not set properly even SSL is set to [Enable].
[Use a self-signed certificate (For test use)]:
This
mode uses the certificate and private key pair
generated by “Self-signed certificate generation”
(page 84). Private key information corresponding
to the certificate is stored in the camera.
You do not need to install an external
certificate. However, you cannot execute the
existence proof that is one of the SSL
functions for the following reasons.
– The private key generated in the camera is
self-signed by the camera.
– A prepared value is set for a distinguished
nam
e (Common name, etc).
– The certificate is not issued by a trusted CA.
For reasons of security, we recommend using
this mode only when there is no problem
even if perfect security is not ensured, such
as for operation test.
Notes
• When [Use a self-signed certificate (For
test use)] is selected, the [Security Alert]
dialog appears on the SSL connection with
a web browser.
For details, see “When the SSL Function is
Used” (page 59).
• SSL connection may be impossible due to
t
he type of certificate installed in the
camera. In this case, refer to “To import the
CA certificate” on page 87 and install.
• When [Use a self-signed certificate (For
t
est use)] is selected, you may not be able
to use SSL connection depending on the
web browser or OS you are using.

Authenticator
An authenticator forwards certificate request
d
ata or response data that the supplicant or
authentication server issues to the other party.
Normally a hub, router or access point serves as
an authenticator.
Authentication server
An authentication server has a database of
c
onnecting users and verifies if the supplicant is
a valid user or not. It can also be called RADIUS
server.
CA (Certificate Authority)
A CA issues and manages certificates of the
a
uthentication server (CA certificates) and user
certificates. The CA is essential for certificate-
based user authentication. Normally a CA is
located inside an authentication server.
