{"product_id":"rc-sda-pe4-gen3™-sound-control-technologies","title":"Sound Control Technologies RC-SDA-PE4 – Gen3 EagleEye IV Bridge with Direct Connection Adapter","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Sound Control Technologies RC-SDA-PE4 Gen3 is a 4K60-capable media bridge for the Poly EagleEye IV camera that includes an EEIV Direct Connection Adapter, enabling direct physical connection between the camera and the bridge unit without an intermediate extension module or cable run. It shares the core capabilities of the RC-SDA Gen3—HDCI to BYOD HDMI conversion and integrated Visca\/Poly serial PTZ transcoding—while the included adapter makes it the correct choice for installations where the bridge is positioned adjacent to the EagleEye IV rather than at a remote head-end location. Commercial AV integrators deploying EagleEye IV cameras in compact spaces or wall-mount configurations will find the RC-SDA-PE4 Gen3 the appropriate selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe unit accepts the Poly EagleEye IV HDCI connection, delivers 4K60 HDMI output, and handles PTZ control transcoding between Visca\/Poly serial formats and the BYOD host.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RC-SDA-PE4 Gen3 is functionally identical to the RC-SDA Gen3 with the addition of the EEIV Direct Connection Adapter included in the kit. This adapter allows the bridge to connect physically and directly to the Poly EagleEye IV, eliminating the need for a separate HDCI cable run between the camera and the bridge in applications where proximity mounting is preferred or required. The bridge outputs 4K60 HDMI for connection to displays, codecs, or HDMI distribution systems, and the integrated Visca\/Poly serial transcoder maintains full PTZ control between the BYOD host and the camera.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor AV system designers, the RC-SDA-PE4 Gen3 reduces installation hardware when the bridge can be co-located with the camera rather than rack-mounted at a distance. This configuration can simplify cable management and reduce the number of pass-through connections in the signal path. The kit is suitable for new installations and for upgrading existing RC-SDA Gen3 deployments where the direct connection adapter is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEEIV Direct Connection Adapter Included\u003c\/strong\u003e — Allows the bridge to connect directly to the Poly EagleEye IV without a separate cable run, enabling compact co-located installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4K60 HDMI Output\u003c\/strong\u003e — Delivers 4K60-capable HDMI from the EagleEye IV for connection to displays and codecs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoly EagleEye IV HDCI Interface\u003c\/strong\u003e — Connects directly to the native HDCI port of the EagleEye IV.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVisca\/Poly Serial PTZ Transcoding\u003c\/strong\u003e — Bridges PTZ control commands between the BYOD host and the EagleEye IV for full pan, tilt, and zoom operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGen3 Platform\u003c\/strong\u003e — Updated with 4K60 capability and current serial transcoding for modern AV system requirements.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoardroom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommercial meeting space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining room\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-PE4 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\u003eIncluded Adapter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEEIV Direct Connection Adapter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDCI (from Poly EagleEye IV, via direct adapter)\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-PE4 Gen3 and the RC-SDA Gen3?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RC-SDA-PE4 Gen3 includes the EEIV Direct Connection Adapter for co-located installations where the bridge connects directly to the EagleEye IV.
