AW-UE160W, AW-UE160K 4K Integrated Camera
Product Information
The AW-UE160W and AW-UE160K are 4K integrated cameras designed
for indoor use. These PTZ cameras offer uncompromising shooting
performance and operability, making them ideal for enhanced
creativity and visual expression. With high sensitivity, advanced
image processing, and phase detection auto focus (PDAF), the
AW-UE160 ensures high-precision video production. It supports
various shooting methods and functions, allowing for
next-generation video production. The camera also features support
for the SMPTE ST2110 standard and 5G mobile router, making it
suitable for IP transmission in the broadcasting industry.
Additionally, the AW-UE160 is designed for ease of use and
versatility, reducing stress during on-site shooting. It supports a
variety of interfaces and protocols, and offers features such as
scene files, color matrix control, and Panasonic’s free software
and Remote Operation Panel (ROP) for batch management of multiple
cameras.
The AW-UE160W/K has a compact body with impressive PTZ
mechanisms, ensuring silent operation and high static accuracy for
high-quality productions. It also supports 2x high-speed shooting,
allowing for smooth and beautiful slow-motion videos. Other
features include a waveform display function and improved
scalability and convenience with support for the SMPTE ST2110
standard and various interfaces and protocols. The camera is
equipped with tally lamps on the front and rear, making it easy to
check the camera’s status from any direction. It also has a return
input function, which can be used as a return video or prompter for
performers to check the video/broadcast on the spot.
Product Usage Instructions
- Connect the camera to power using the provided power
cable. - Position the camera in the desired location for shooting.
- Connect the camera to a monitor or recording device using the
appropriate interface (HDMI, SDI, etc.). - If using the return input function, ensure that the camera is
operating under the SMPTE ST2110 standard. - Configure the camera settings using Panasonic’s free software
or Remote Operation Panel (ROP). This includes adjusting scene
files and color matrix control. - If using multiple cameras, use the batch management feature of
the software or ROP to control and manage them simultaneously. - Check the camera’s status from any direction by observing the
tally lamps on the front and rear. - To capture high-quality images in dark conditions, adjust the
sensitivity settings to F14/2000 lx. - For capturing fast-moving subjects, utilize the phase detection
auto focus (PDAF) for high-speed and precise focusing. - To achieve smooth and beautiful slow-motion videos, activate
the 2x high-speed shooting feature.
Note: Some features and functions may require the separately
sold software key AW-SFU60. Please refer to the product
documentation for more information on compatibility and
activation.

4K Integrated Camera For Indoor Use
4K PTZ Camera for an era of enhanced creativity and the pursuit of visual expression.
Uncompromising shooting performance and operability.
In addition to the high sensitivity F14/2000 lx and the latest-generation image processing found in LUMIX, the AW-UE160 features an phase detection auto focus (PDAF). The new PTZ has a variety of functions that enable you to carry out high-precision video production.
Realize next-generation video production with various shooting methods and functions.
The AW-UE160 supports return input and high-speed output, which is vital for building a combined camera system. This camera is the first to support the SMPTE ST2110 standard1 and 5G mobile router (USB tethering compatible) – the standard for IP transmission in the broadcasting industry.
1 Activation with the separately sold software key AW-SFU60 (released at the same time as AW-UE160) is required.
Ease of use and versatility reduces stress of shooting on-site.
Support for a variety of I/Fs and protocols reduces the burden of introducing the camera into existing systems. Support for scene files, color matrix control and Panasonic’s free software and Remote Operation Panel (ROP) for batch management of multiple cameras makes mixed operation with system cameras even easier.
