Sound Control Technologies RC4-HST-K – SimplTrack Lite Camera Extension Kit with Wall Mount

Product Overview

The Sound Control Technologies RC4-HST-K is a project pack bundling the RC4-HST HDMI camera extension kit for the HuddleCamHD SimplTrack Lite auto-tracking camera with an on-wall camera mount. Using SCTLink™ technology, the kit extends HDMI video, RS-232 PTZ control, and 12V DC camera power up to 100 meters over a single CAT cable. The included wall mount provides a clean permanent camera installation at the remote location.

Product Description

The RC4-HST-K includes all RC4-HST base kit components—RC4-CE camera module, RC4-HE head-end module, the SimplTrack Lite-specific cable set, and WPS-12 power supply—plus an on-wall camera mount for the SimplTrack Lite. The RC4-CE connects to the camera at the wall-mount location, the RC4-HE connects to the codec, recorder, or display chain at the head end, and a single installer-supplied CAT cable between them carries HDMI video, RS-232 control, and 12V DC power up to 100 meters. Because the SimplTrack Lite performs presenter tracking on board, full camera functionality is preserved at the head end with no programming required. The -K suffix indicates the camera wall mount is included without a rack shelf. For a rack shelf, see RC4-HST-S; for both accessories, see RC4-HST-KS.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the -K suffix mean?

The -K suffix indicates this pack includes the RC4-HST base kit plus an on-wall camera mount. No rack shelf is included. For a rack shelf, see RC4-HST-S. For both, see RC4-HST-KS.

Which camera does the RC4-HST-K support?

The kit is designed and tested for the HuddleCamHD SimplTrack Lite auto-tracking camera. For the HuddleCamHD HuddleView or SimplTrack2, use the RC4-HHV series instead.

Does auto-tracking still work over the extension?

Yes. The SimplTrack Lite performs presenter tracking in the camera itself, so tracking operates normally regardless of extension distance, and RS-232 control passes through for preset and PTZ commands.

Is the CAT cable included?

No. The CAT run between the RC4-CE and RC4-HE modules is supplied by the installer. CAT5e or better is recommended, with a maximum run of 100 meters.
