It is the third-generation update to SCT's EagleEye IV disti-amp line, offering 4K60 video support alongside the control transcoding capabilities that allow AV integrators to use the EagleEye IV in modern BYOD and BYOM conference room deployments. The RC-SDA Gen3 suits boardrooms and commercial meeting spaces where 4K display output and full PTZ control are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe unit accepts the native HDCI connection of the Poly EagleEye IV and delivers a BYOD HDMI output for connection to displays, codecs, or distribution systems. The built-in Visca\/Poly serial transcoder bridges PTZ control commands between the BYOD host and the camera, maintaining full pan, tilt, and zoom functionality in software-driven environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RC-SDA Gen3 connects directly to the Poly EagleEye IV via its HDCI port and outputs 4K60 HDMI for distribution to displays, codecs, or further signal processing. The integrated serial transcoder converts Visca and Poly-native PTZ control protocols, allowing control systems and software platforms to drive the EagleEye IV's pan, tilt, and zoom without dedicated control hardware. This makes the RC-SDA Gen3 well-suited for installations that require both high-resolution video and full remote camera control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor AV system designers, the Gen3 model provides a future-proofed path for EagleEye IV installations by supporting 4K60 output, which the previous generation did not. Rack integration is straightforward, and the unit fits within SCT's broader module ecosystem. The RC-SDA Gen3 is appropriate for new installations and as an upgrade for existing RC-SDA or disti-amp deployments where 4K60 or improved PTZ transcoding is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4K60 Video Support\u003c\/strong\u003e — Delivers 4K60-capable HDMI output from the Poly EagleEye IV, supporting high-resolution conference room displays and systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoly EagleEye IV HDCI Interface\u003c\/strong\u003e — Accepts the native HDCI output of the EagleEye IV directly, with no intermediate adapters required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVisca\/Poly Serial Transcoder\u003c\/strong\u003e — Bridges PTZ control commands between the BYOD host and the EagleEye IV for full pan, tilt, and zoom control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBYOD HDMI Output\u003c\/strong\u003e — Delivers a BYOD-ready HDMI signal for connection to displays, codecs, or HDMI distribution systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThird-Generation Platform\u003c\/strong\u003e — Updated over prior generations with 4K60 capability and improved serial transcoding for current AV system requirements.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoardroom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommercial meeting space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto\"\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel \/ SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRC-SDA Gen3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible Camera\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePoly EagleEye IV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDCI (from Poly EagleEye IV)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBYOD HDMI (4K60 capable)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePTZ Control Transcoding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVisca \/ Poly Serial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEach\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\/Taiwan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between the RC-SDA Gen3 and the RC-SDA-PE4 Gen3?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RC-SDA-PE4 Gen3 includes an EEIV Direct Connection Adapter for installations where the EagleEye IV connects directly to the bridge without a separate extension run.
