BR-DCU-CAT-6 is a camera switcher with multiple input options, built to work with the Bronx Dialogue Conference System. The camera follows whoever is speaking, while a monitoring output lets the room see the program feed.

Inbuilt audio and video bridging passes any high-definition HDMI and audio source through USB into video conferencing applications such as Skype for Business, Zoom and Microsoft Teams. Seamless switching means no jitter and no blank screen between cameras.
