Sound Control Technologies RC-SDA4+E4P – RemoteCam4 Extension Kit for Poly EagleEye IV

Product Overview

The Sound Control Technologies RC-SDA4+E4P is a complete RemoteCam4 camera extension kit designed for the Poly EagleEye IV PTZ camera. It combines the RC-SDA4+ BYOD Camera Bridge with the extension cabling and terminations required for a full deployment, converting HDMI video and audio to USB3 while translating UVC PTZ commands to RS-232 Visca for full camera control over a CAT cable infrastructure. AV integrators deploying commercial meeting spaces benefit from a single-SKU ordering process that eliminates sourcing multiple components separately.

The kit replaces legacy RC4-HE head-end modules and pairs with existing RC4-CE extension modules already installed in the field, making it ideal for upgrading conference rooms without pulling new cable. The RC-SDA4+E4P supports BYOD/BYOM workflows by presenting the Poly EagleEye IV to any USB host as a standard UVC device, enabling compatibility with Zoom, Teams, and Cisco codec environments.

Product Description

The RC-SDA4+E4P bundles the RC-SDA4+ media bridge with all Poly EagleEye IV-specific cabling into a single commercial-grade extension kit for AV system integrators. The RC-SDA4+ bridge accepts HDMI video and analog audio from the camera and outputs USB3 to the host codec or PC, while simultaneously converting incoming UVC PTZ control commands to RS-232 Visca for camera pan, tilt, and zoom operation. Signal transport runs over a CAT cable infrastructure, matching the wiring already present in most commercial conference room deployments.

Because the RC-SDA4+E4P is designed as a drop-in upgrade for existing RC4-based RemoteCam4 installations, field technicians can upgrade head-end electronics without disturbing wall penetrations or pulling additional cable. The kit ships ready to install, reducing truck roll time and minimizing on-site configuration. SCT's single-cable architecture keeps AV rack wiring organized and avoids the separate power runs required by competing extender approaches. For new installations, the RC-SDA4+E4P connects directly to the CE extension module at the camera end and terminates at the head-end in the AV rack.

Key Features

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the RC-SDA4+E4P replace in an existing installation?

The RC-SDA4+E4P replaces the RC4-HE head-end module. It is designed to work with the RC4-CE extension module that is already installed at the camera end, so existing CAT cable runs and wall penetrations remain undisturbed.

Does the kit include everything needed for installation?

Yes. The RC-SDA4+E4P includes the RC-SDA4+ media bridge and all Poly EagleEye IV-specific cabling and terminations required for a complete installation. A compatible RC4-CE extension module must already be present at the camera end, or sourced separately for new installations.

Is the RC-SDA4+E4P compatible with BYOD/BYOM conference room setups?

Yes. The RC-SDA4+ bridge presents the Poly EagleEye IV as a standard UVC USB3 camera to any host device, including BYOD laptops and room codecs from Cisco, Poly, and others, without requiring additional drivers.

What PTZ control protocols are supported?

The RC-SDA4+ bridge accepts UVC PTZ commands from the USB host and converts them to RS-232 Visca for camera control. This enables full pan, tilt, and zoom operation of the Poly EagleEye IV through standard codec or software PTZ interfaces.
