Will this one do the job and have RTMP?

I do not see RTMP in this PTZ's features.

So the 5842 or the 5442? One is 8mp other is 4mp. I’d think the 5442 would have slightly better NV? But the 5842 would be clearer in day?

 

[NoobCamMan]

I ordered the 5442 off EmpireTech. Fingers crossed. I ordered the wall mount too. Anything else? I will run an Ethernet cord to it and I have power at it

It's a PoE camera and doesn't need powerif you use a PoE network switch or a PoE injector.

Did you consider the 4kX ? (5849t1) Better low light capability. Unsure as to the current focal lengths available:

No sure didn’t. The wife doesn’t want the color led one. She likes the IR. She says horses eyes are super sensitive to light at night. So IR worked better for us.

You don't have to use the led's. The only requirement is you're going to need some ambient light so I don't know if the paddock is pitch black or whether you have lights on buildings nearby that cast some light at night. If pitch black, consider the 5442 plus an external ir light at the non glow wavelength (I forget which wavelength that is off the top but there are 2 and 1 emits a feint glow and the other has less range but is completely invisible to the eye).
