Crystal-Clear 4K Details with Massive 22x Zoom
The Ubiquiti G4 PTZ is the flagship among IP Cameras and redefines the boundaries of surveillance. With its Sony 4K sensor, it captures every detail in breathtaking 3840x2160 resolution. The real game-changer, however, is the 22x optical zoom. Unlike digital zoom, which only magnifies image sections and loses quality, the G4 PTZ physically moves its lenses. The result: you can identify faces, license plates, or suspicious activities from a great distance, razor-sharp and without loss of quality.
Built for Extremes: IP66 Protection in All Weather Conditions
This camera is designed for uncompromising outdoor use. The housing made of metal and robust plastic is IP66 certified, meaning it is completely dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets. Whether icy winters at -40°C or hot summer days up to 50°C – the G4 PTZ continues to operate reliably. The massive metal Mounting System ensures a rock-solid hold, even in strong winds.
Seamless Integration into Your UniFi Protect System
As part of the UniFi Protect ecosystem, setting up the G4 PTZ is a breeze. Simply connect the camera to a suitable PoE++ capable Ethernet Switch, and your UniFi Protect Controller (e.g., UDM Pro or UNVR) will recognize it immediately. With 'One-Click Adoption,' it's ready for use in seconds. Manage live streams, recordings, and all PTZ functions (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) centrally via the intuitive web interface or the mobile app – from anywhere in the world.
Premium Night Vision and Smart Tracking
When the sun goes down, the G4 PTZ truly shines. The integrated, adaptive infrared LEDs enable an impressive night vision range of up to 100 meters. A mechanical IR cut filter ensures natural colors during the day and maximum light sensitivity at night. In combination with the intelligent 'Subject Tracking' function, the camera can automatically keep recognized people or vehicles in its field of view and track them, so you don't miss any important movement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Which switch do I need for the G4 PTZ camera?
You need a Network Switch that supports the PoE++ standard (IEEE 802.3bt) and can deliver at least 43 watts of power per port. Examples from the Ubiquiti Networks portfolio include the UniFi Switch Pro 24 PoE or the UniFi Switch Pro 48 PoE.
Is the Ubiquiti G4 PTZ a WiFi camera?
No, the G4 PTZ is a purely wired camera. It connects to the Network via an Ethernet Cable (RJ45), which also provides power via PoE++.
Can I use the G4 PTZ without a UniFi Protect Controller?
No, for full functionality, including recording and management, a UniFi Protect Controller is mandatory. This can be a UniFi Dream Machine Pro (UDM Pro), a UniFi Protect Network Video Recorder (UNVR), or a Cloud Key Gen2 Plus.
How weather-resistant is the G4 PTZ really?
The camera is IP66 certified. This means it is completely dust-tight and protected against powerful jets of water from any direction. It is designed for permanent outdoor use, even in rain and snow.
What is the difference between optical and digital zoom?
The G4 PTZ features a 22x optical zoom. This enlarges the image without loss of quality through the physical movement of the lenses in the objective. Digital zoom, on the other hand, merely magnifies a section of the image, leading to a significant loss of quality. The optical zoom of the G4 PTZ is therefore qualitatively far superior.
Does the G4 PTZ support automatic object tracking (Auto-Tracking)?
Yes, the UniFi Protect software offers a "Subject Tracking" function for the G4 PTZ, allowing the camera to automatically follow detected persons or vehicles.
