Dotworkz HD12 — Core Chassis

IPI 66 Dust-Tight, Impact-Tough Broadcast Camera Enclosure

Dotworkz HD12 Core Chassis — Future-Proof Broadcast Camera Enclosure

Give your PTZ or long-lens box cam studio-grade armor without paying for weather-sealed bodies. The HD12 Core Chassis is an IP66 water-tight, impact-rated housing built for arenas, sound stages, convention halls, and other mild-climate venues.

(Built for studios, arenas, houses of worship, and any mild-climate venue where debris and bumps—not heat or cold—are the main threat.)

Why Crews Pick the Core Chassis

  • Lower Cost vs. Weather-Sealed Cameras

    Skip expensive factory-sealed bodies. Drop your preferred standard PTZ or long-lens box cam into the HD12 Core and get better protection for a fraction of the hardware price.

  • Future-Proof & Upgrade-Ready

    Interior rails, generous lens clearance, and oversized cable glands make camera swaps painless. When technology jumps—from 1080p to 4K, SDI to IP—just unlock the hatch, slide the new rig in, and you’re live again in minutes.

  • Broadcast-Size Interior

    Fits full-frame PTZs or box cams plus wireless TX, power bricks, or SDI/Fiber converters—no cramming or cable kinks.

  • Dust & Impact Armor

    IP66-sealed, high-impact thermoplastic shell shakes off forklift dings, rigging knocks, and airborne dust—keeping optics spotless and feeds uninterrupted.

  • Zero Climate Overhead

    Ships without heaters or coolers, trimming weight, power draw, and budget while still delivering rock-solid protection in mild environments.

  • Fast, Tool-Free Access

    Quick-latch front hatch lets techs swap cameras or cables in seconds—no tiny screws to drop, no show-day delays.

  • Expandable Protection

    Need weather hardening later? Bolt on Dotworkz Heater-Blower or CoolDome™ kits later—no new housing required.
