AVer CAM520 Pro3 vs Yealink UVC86 Comparison

AVer CAM520 Pro3

The Sony 8 MP sensor outputs 1080p at up to 60 fps through a lens with an f/1.6 to f/2.8 aperture. AVer applies WDR and noise reduction on board. The bright lens helps in dim rooms and lecture halls, keeping faces clean when the lights are lowered for slides. At 60 fps, presenters who walk and gesture look smooth on the remote screen.

Yealink UVC86

Both cameras use 8 MP Sony sensors, and the system outputs 4K at 30 fps. The PTZ camera autofocuses from about 1 m to infinity. Image quality is crisp with natural colour under typical office lighting. Faces at the far end of a long table remain sharp when the camera zooms in, which is where a 4K sensor earns its place.

AVer CAM520 Pro3

Optical zoom is 12x, with 36x total and 24x lossless using sensor cropping. The focal length runs from 3.9 to 46.8 mm. That reach lets a teacher at the back wall fill the frame, or a camera mounted at the rear capture a whiteboard at the front. Optical zoom keeps the text crisp enough for remote students to read.

Yealink UVC86

The PTZ camera has 12x optical zoom, extended to 20.4x HD zoom with 1.7x digital. Nine presets store favourite positions. Optical zoom means close-ups keep full detail, so a presenter at a whiteboard 8 metres away can fill the frame cleanly. Zoom movements are smooth enough to happen live during a meeting.

AVer CAM520 Pro3

The camera is Zoom certified and works with Teams, Meet and other platforms as a standard UVC device. AVer's PTZ Management software and the CAMConnect app handle control and updates. A people-counting API reports room occupancy to building systems, which helps facilities teams plan space and spot rooms that are booked but empty.

Yealink UVC86

The camera is UVC compliant and works with Teams, Zoom and other platforms over USB. Yealink's camera control plug-in and device management handle settings and firmware. Yealink targets the UVC86 at Teams Rooms and Zoom Rooms deployments, often bundled into MVC room kits with a mini PC and touch console.

Outputs include USB 3.1 Type-B, HDMI, RS-232 and LAN with RTSP and RTMP streaming in H.264. Power comes from PoE+ (802.3at) or a 12 V 2 A adapter. That range means one camera can feed a room PC, a lecture capture system and a livestream at the same time. AV teams can also drive it from Crestron or Extron controllers over RS-232 or IP.

Yealink UVC86

Connections include USB 3.0 Type-B, USB 2.0 Type-A, a Yealink VCH port for audio devices, a 3.5 mm line-in and HDMI out for compatible Yealink systems. A 7 m USB cable, a wall bracket and a remote are in the box. Mounting options include a table, on top of a TV, a wall, a ceiling or a tripod.
