Telycam TLC-300-U3-12 12x USB 3.0 FHD PTZ Video Conferencing Camera
The Telycam TLC-300-U3-12 is a standalone USB 3.0 PTZ camera for medium and large video-conferencing rooms. Choose it when your room needs Full HD video and 12x optical zoom to capture a presenter, whiteboard area, or participants farther from the room computer.
It connects through USB 3.0 and can be placed on a desk, monitor, tripod, or inverted ceiling position. This is a camera-only solution: plan for a USB 3.0-equipped room computer, the conferencing application, and separate audio coverage as needed. Its zoom-oriented design is generally a better fit for larger spaces than compact huddle rooms.

Common Questions
Is this camera a good choice for a small huddle room?
Usually, it is better suited to medium and large meeting rooms. The 12x optical zoom and 72.5° wide field of view favor spaces where the camera must reach presenters or participants at longer distances; review compact-room geometry before selecting it.
What do I need in addition to the camera?
You need a USB 3.0-equipped room computer or host device and a conferencing application. Provide separate room audio, including microphones and speakers, based on the room's needs.
Can the camera be controlled remotely?
Yes. It supports PTZ control through RS-232, RS-485, USB, and the included remote controller, with up to 128 presets available through RS-232.
Can it be mounted on the ceiling?
Yes, inverted-ceiling installation is listed, along with desk, monitor, and tripod placement. Confirm the appropriate mounting hardware for your planned installation, as a wall or ceiling mount is not listed among the included items.
Does the camera require a subscription or cloud-management license?
No. No camera-specific subscription, cloud-management service, or license is required; any license for your chosen conferencing platform is separate.
