Chief DocCAM 20 HDBT OneLINK Bridge Express Conferencing System

Meet a streamlined, classroom-ready conferencing solution that merges the Chief DocCAM 20 HDBT camera with the OneLINK Bridge Express AV Interface Receiver. This system is purpose-built for educators who demand crystal-clear document capture, reliable connectivity, and minimal setup. Leveraging HDBaseT technology, it delivers power, video, and control over a single Cat-5e cable, dramatically reducing cable clutter and enabling fast, clutter-free installations in classrooms, training rooms, and meeting spaces. The DocCAM 20 HDBT OneLINK system is designed to enhance teaching and collaboration by delivering sharp, easily shareable visuals of worksheets, pages, books, and three-dimensional objects to any display or conferencing platform. Built to withstand active classroom environments, it combines robust engineering with intuitive operation, making it an ideal solution for teachers, pool rooms, and educational institutions seeking dependable performance and simple deployment.

• Clutter-free, plug-and-play design: A single HDBaseT cable carries power, video, and control from the DocCAM 20 HDBT camera to the OneLINK Bridge Express Receiver, eliminating multiple power bricks and tangled cords. This streamlined setup reduces installation time, minimizes desk clutter, and makes it easy for substitute teachers to deploy the system quickly in any classroom. The intuitive interface and straightforward wiring mean technicians can install multiple units across an entire campus with consistent results.
• Long reach with flexible cabling: The system is engineered to extend high-definition visuals well beyond standard classroom distances—up to 230 feet (70 meters) over Cat-5e cabling, with Cat-6 compatible options. This capability supports large classrooms, auditoriums, and multi-room configurations where the teacher needs to project documents from a distant location without sacrificing image clarity or frame rate. The extended reach preserves detail in text and images, ensuring every student can read what’s being shared on screen.
• Classroom-optimized document capture: The DocCAM 20 HDBT camera is designed to enhance teaching materials with precise document capture, crisp text, and reliable focus on pages, worksheets, and books. Teachers benefit from smooth auto-focus, accurate color reproduction, and dependable image stability even when materials move during demonstrations. This system makes it easy to show dense text, fine print, graphs, and molecular diagrams with legible detail for students seated near the back of the room.
• Integrated AV interface and control: The OneLINK Bridge Express Receiver acts as a reliable hub that connects the camera to projectors, displays, interactive whiteboards, and collaboration systems. This integration simplifies the sharing process for both in-room participants and remote attendees, enabling quick switching between documents and live camera views. The solution supports a cohesive classroom ecosystem, helping teachers keep the lesson flowing without technical interruptions.
• Reliability, durability, and easy maintenance: Built for high-usage environments, the system features sturdy construction and consistent performance across daily classroom tasks. Mounting options, secure cable management, and compatibility with standard classroom AV gear streamline maintenance and long-term operation. The plug-and-play nature minimizes downtime, and the straightforward setup reduces the need for ongoing technical support during busy school days.
