Sound Control Technologies RC4-HHV-KS – HuddleCamHD and 1Beyond Extension Project Pack

Product Overview

The Sound Control Technologies RC4-HHV-KS is a complete RemoteCam4 project pack for extending HuddleCamHD HuddleView and SimplTrack2 cameras and the 1Beyond IV-CAMFR-12-SLVR-1B camera up to 100 meters from the codec or head-end equipment. The RC4 platform carries HDMI video, serial control, and 12V DC camera power over a single CAT cable — no programming required. The -KS project pack bundles the RC4-HHV extension kit with the RC-RK2 1U rack shelf and the matching RCM on-wall camera mount, covering the full hardware bill of materials for a camera extension build in one SKU.

Product Description

The RC4-HHV is the RemoteCam4 variant designed to deliver a transparent, reliable, and cost-effective link between a generic codec or head-end device and the HuddleCamHD HuddleView, HuddleCamHD SimplTrack2, and 1Beyond IV-CAMFR-12-SLVR-1B cameras. These tracking and framing cameras are frequently mounted at the rear of the room or at ceiling height for optimal coverage — beyond native HDMI and control cable limits. The RC4-HHV removes that constraint: HDMI video, bidirectional serial camera control, and 12V DC camera power all travel over one installer-supplied CAT cable between the RC4-CE camera-end module and the RC4-HE head-end module.

The kit ships with the camera-matched cable set for the supported HuddleCamHD and 1Beyond models, so the camera connects directly to the camera-end module with no custom cabling, and control passes transparently to the head end. The system designer can position the camera for tracking or framing coverage while keeping the codec, recorder, or production switcher in the equipment rack.

The -KS configuration is the full project pack: it adds the RC-RK2 rack shelf for mounting the head-end module in a standard 19-inch rack, and the RCM-series on-wall mount, which positions the camera while concealing the camera-end module and cabling. Power is delivered to the camera over the CAT run, so no outlet is required at the camera position. The system is manufactured in the USA and Taiwan for permanent commercial installation.

Key Features

• HuddleCamHD and 1Beyond Camera Support — Configured for the HuddleCamHD HuddleView, SimplTrack2, and 1Beyond IV-CAMFR-12-SLVR-1B cameras.
• Single-Cable Extension up to 100m — HDMI video, serial control, and 12V DC camera power over one CAT cable reduces conduit fill and installation labor.
• Complete -KS Project Pack — Includes the RC4-HHV extension kit, RC-RK2 1U rack shelf, and RCM on-wall camera mount in one SKU.
• No Programming Required — Serial camera control passes transparently for plug-and-play operation; tracking and framing functions remain in the camera.
• Power Over CAT — 12V camera power delivered over the extension cable eliminates a power outlet at the camera location.
• On-Wall Cable Concealment — The RCM mount hides the camera-end module and cabling for a clean finished installation.
• Rack-Mount Head End — The RC-RK2 shelf secures the head-end module in a standard equipment rack.
• Commercial-Grade Construction — Made in the USA and Taiwan for permanent fixed installation.

Typical Applications

• Training room with a rear-mounted SimplTrack2 tracking the instructor
• House of worship tracking a presenter across the platform with a HuddleCamHD or 1Beyond camera
• Auditorium or all-hands room with the camera positioned far from the equipment rack

• Government space or council chamber requiring concealed camera cabling

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in the RC4-HHV-KS project pack?

The -KS includes the RC4-HHV extension kit, the RC-RK2 1U rack shelf for the head-end module, and the RCM on-wall camera mount. The -S variant adds only the rack shelf, the -K variant adds only the wall mount, and the base RC4-HHV is the extension kit alone.

Does extending the camera affect auto-tracking or framing?

No. Tracking and framing are performed in the camera itself; the RC4-HHV passes video and control transparently, so camera behavior is unchanged at any extension distance within spec.

How does the RC4-HHV differ from the RC4-HST?

The RC4-HHV supports the HuddleCamHD HuddleView, SimplTrack2, and 1Beyond IV-CAMFR-12-SLVR-1B, while the RC4-HST is configured for the HuddleCamHD SimplTrack Lite. Match the SKU to the exact camera model being deployed.

Is the CAT cable included?

No. The CAT cable between the camera-end and head-end modules is supplied by the installer. CAT5e or better is recommended, with a maximum run of 100 meters; use plenum-rated cable where required by code.
