Using SCTLink™ technology, the RC4-1BC extends HDMI video, RS-232 Visca PTZ control, and 12V DC camera power up to 100 meters over a single CAT cable. The kit is plug-and-play with no programming required and includes all cables needed for the 1Beyond camera-to-head-end connection. This is a newly added kit in the RC4 family, expanding compatibility to Crestron's 1Beyond PTZ camera line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RC4-1BC uses the RC4-CE camera module at the camera location and the RC4-HE head-end module at the codec or control system rack, connected by a single CAT cable carrying all three signal types. HDMI video returns from the 1Beyond PTZ camera to the head end; RS-232 Visca control from the head end drives camera pan, tilt, and zoom; and 12V DC power delivered from the WPS-12 power supply through the RC4-CE eliminates the need for a separate power connection at the camera mount. The kit includes cables specific to the Crestron 1Beyond IV-CAMPTZ-12 and IV-CAMPTZ-20 form factor and connector interface. Integrators deploying Crestron 1Beyond cameras in conference rooms, boardrooms, or multi-purpose rooms with existing RS-232 control infrastructure can use this kit to position cameras at any location within 100 meters of the equipment rack. The RC4-1BC is listed as new in the SCT product line; contact Creation Networks for current availability and lead times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrestron 1Beyond Camera Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e — Specifically designed for the IV-CAMPTZ-12 and IV-CAMPTZ-20 PTZ cameras.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle-CAT Extension up to 100m\u003c\/strong\u003e — HDMI video, RS-232 Visca control, and 12V DC camera power over one CAT cable run.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo Programming Required\u003c\/strong\u003e — RS-232 Visca PTZ control passes transparently; no external control processor required for basic PTZ operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e12V Camera Power Delivery\u003c\/strong\u003e — WPS-12 power supply and RC4-CE deliver power to the camera remotely; no separate power run needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNew Kit in RC4 Family\u003c\/strong\u003e — Expands RC4 compatibility to Crestron 1Beyond cameras, complementing existing Cisco, Poly, Panasonic, and multi-brand variants.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModular Design\u003c\/strong\u003e — RC4-CE and RC4-HE modules are individually replaceable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommercial-Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e — USA\/Taiwan manufactured for permanent AV installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference room with Crestron 1Beyond IV-CAMPTZ-12 or IV-CAMPTZ-20 camera mounted at extended distance from the codec rack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoardroom deploying Crestron 1Beyond PTZ cameras over existing CAT infrastructure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorporate meeting space integrating Crestron 1Beyond cameras with an RS-232 control system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-purpose room with Crestron 1Beyond PTZ camera positioned at ceiling or wall level\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment space deploying Crestron 1Beyond cameras requiring CAT cable extension\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\u003eRC4-1BC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Family\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRemoteCam4™ (RC4) — HDMI + Visca Control + 12V Camera Power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSupported Cameras\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCrestron 1Beyond IV-CAMPTZ-12, IV-CAMPTZ-20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSignal Types Carried\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDMI video, RS-232 Visca PTZ control, 12V DC camera power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Extension Distance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100 meters (328 ft) over CAT cable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncluded Components\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRC4-CE Camera Module, RC4-HE Head-End Module, camera-specific cable set, WPS-12 Power Supply\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\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMSRP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$2,445\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\u003eWhich Crestron 1Beyond cameras does the RC4-1BC support?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RC4-1BC is designed for the Crestron 1Beyond IV-CAMPTZ-12 and IV-CAMPTZ-20 PTZ cameras.
