Why consider this model?

  • A narrowly scoped earlier option for one camera with clean, unencrypted HDMI, a compatible 720p/1080p mode and a verified USB 3.x computer/app route; its documented direction is camera-to-computer UVC, not display passthrough.

Tradeoffs to weigh

  • Original Cam Link production stopped in November 2018. It is limited to 720p/1080p video up to 60 fps, needs a separate camera HDMI lead and USB 3.x host, has no documented HDMI display output, and carries no current new-OS or third-party-software compatibility guarantee. Its 10GAC9901 manufacturer part number is not established as the US retail-package SKU.
