Sound Control Technologies RC4-P40-KS – PTZ Camera Extension Projec...
Product Overview
The Sound Control Technologies RC4-P40-KS is a complete project pack for integrators deploying the Panasonic AW-HE40 or AW-HE60 PTZ camera over extended CAT cable runs. This camera extension kit transmits HDMI video, VISCA serial control, and 12V DC camera power over a single CAT5e/6 cable to distances up to 300 feet, eliminating point-to-point HDMI cable runs from camera to codec. The -KS project pack bundles the RC4 extension kit with the RC-RK2 rack shelf for codec-end rack mounting and the RCM-UNI on-wall camera mount, providing a complete hardware set for a standard conference room installation.
Product Description
The RC4 platform is a commercial-grade HDBaseT-style camera extender purpose-built for fixed-install AV environments. It carries HDMI video at up to 1080p 60Hz, bidirectional VISCA control for pan-tilt-zoom operation, and 12V DC power for the camera — all over a single shielded or unshielded CAT5e/6 cable. The camera-end unit (RC4-CE) connects directly to the Panasonic AW-HE40 or AW-HE60 using manufacturer-specific cabling, and the head-end unit (RC4-HE) connects to the codec or display system at the rack.
The -KS suffix designates the full project pack configuration: it adds the RC-RK2 rack shelf for clean 1U rack installation of the head-end unit, and the RCM-UNI universal on-wall camera mount for secure wall or ceiling deployment of the camera-end module. Integrators receive everything needed to complete the camera extension run in a single line-item PO, simplifying procurement for commercial conference room deployments.
Because control and power travel the same CAT cable as the video signal, there is no need for separate RS-232 wiring or local power supplies at the camera. This reduces conduit fill, simplifies commissioning, and supports clean plenum cable routing when shielded CAT is used. The RC4 is manufactured in the USA and Taiwan and is designed for permanent installation in commercial meeting spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Panasonic cameras are compatible with the RC4-P40-KS?
The RC4-P40-KS is configured to support the Panasonic AW-HE40 and AW-HE60 PTZ cameras. If you are deploying a different Panasonic model or a different camera brand, SCT offers other RC4 variants matched to specific cameras — contact Creation Networks to confirm compatibility before ordering.
What does the -KS suffix indicate?
The -KS suffix designates the full project pack: it includes the RC4 extension kit, the RC-RK2 rack shelf for 1U rack mounting of the head-end unit, and the RCM-UNI on-wall camera mount. The base RC4-P40 includes only the extension kit; -S adds the rack shelf only; -K adds the wall mount only.
What type of CAT cable is required?
The RC4 platform operates over standard CAT5e or CAT6 cable. For plenum-rated installations, use plenum-rated CAT cable. Shielded CAT cable is recommended in environments with significant RF interference. Maximum recommended run length is 300 feet.
Does the kit include the PTZ camera?
No. The RC4-P40-KS is a camera extension and mounting kit only; the Panasonic AW-HE40 or AW-HE60 camera must be sourced separately. Contact Creation Networks for bundled camera and extension kit pricing.
What codec or display systems does this work with?
The head-end unit outputs standard HDMI video and VISCA control, making it compatible with any codec or display system that accepts HDMI input and RS-232/VISCA control. It is not limited to a specific codec brand.
What are the warranty terms for SCT products?
Contact Creation Networks for current Sound Control Technologies warranty terms and support options for the RC4 product line.
