What is the UVC86?

The UVC86 is Yealink's 4K dual-eye PTZ camera for medium and large rooms. A 120° panoramic lens constantly finds people in the room, while a second 4K lens with 12x optical zoom on a motorized pan/tilt head delivers the close-ups. That pairing gives smooth Auto Framing, Speaker Tracking and Presenter Tracking without the hunting you see on single-lens PTZ cameras.

It connects over USB 3.0, so it works with any room PC or laptop, and its VCH port lets it pass Yealink audio devices through to the host. Yealink uses the UVC86 as the camera in its MVC S90 and MVC860 Teams Rooms kits.

It has no microphones or speakers, so budget for room audio. It is best for boardrooms, training rooms and classrooms where people sit 5 m or more from the display or a presenter walks around.

Who the UVC86 is for

  • Good fit: medium and large rooms, boardrooms and classrooms; BYOD rooms and PC-based rooms, where any meeting app has to work.
  • Skip it for: rooms that want one-touch join with no PC (pick an appliance bar).

FAQ

Does the UVC86 work with any meeting app?

Yes. It is a USB plug-and-play camera, and Yealink also uses it in MVC kits (MVC S90, MVC860) and BYOD room designs.

How does presenter tracking work?

The panoramic lens watches the room and drives the 12x optical PTZ lens to follow a presenter; Yealink supports wide-area, stage and segment tracking modes.

Can I use the HDMI output with an MVC system?

No. Yealink notes the HDMI out works with VCS systems but not MVC systems; MVC kits use USB.

What mounts are available?

A wall bracket is included. The optional UVC8X Mount Kit adds top-of-TV, wall and inverted ceiling options.

Where is the UVC86 manual?

Yealink publishes it: UVC86 user manual (PDF).
