As part of the SCT RCT Series of T-bar drop-tile ceiling mounts, it combines a recessed backbox, mounting plate, and a camera cradle shaped for the PrecisionHD body. The mount delivers a clean, low-profile ceiling camera installation that conceals cabling and elevates the camera for full-room coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCisco PrecisionHD cameras remain widely deployed in Cisco TelePresence and SX-series codec rooms, and ceiling placement is often the best way to capture an entire conference room without sacrificing wall space. The RCT-PH1 integrates with the T-bar grid of a suspended ceiling, recessing its backbox above the tile line so cable connections and slack stay hidden. Below the ceiling, the cradle presents the PrecisionHD camera in a finished, architectural manner rather than on an exposed bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cradle is shaped specifically for the Cisco 1080p PHD camera family (12x and 4x models), holding the camera firmly while preserving its motorized pan, tilt, and zoom travel. Integrators frequently pair this mount with Sound Control Technologies RemoteCam extension kits, which carry HDMI video, RS-232 control, and power to the remotely mounted Cisco camera over category cable — keeping the codec in the rack and the camera at the ideal vantage point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSCT publishes design documentation for RCT Series mounts, supporting AV system designers who need drawings for construction packages. For sheetrock ceilings, the companion RCS-PH1 covers the same camera; for wall installation, see the RCM Series on-wall mounts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCisco PrecisionHD Cradle\u003c\/strong\u003e — Purpose-shaped cradle secures Cisco 1080p 12x\/4x PHD cameras without obstructing pan, tilt, or zoom.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrop-Tile Ceiling Integration\u003c\/strong\u003e — Installs into standard T-bar suspended ceiling grids for a recessed, finished appearance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecessed Backbox\u003c\/strong\u003e — Conceals cable connections and service slack above the ceiling line for a clean conference room install.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecure Mounting Plate\u003c\/strong\u003e — Transfers the camera load to the structure for a stable, long-term installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtension-Kit Friendly\u003c\/strong\u003e — Pairs with SCT RemoteCam extension kits to deliver video, control, and power over category cable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign Documentation Available\u003c\/strong\u003e — Vendor-published drawings support AV design and construction coordination.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference rooms running Cisco TelePresence\/SX codecs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoardrooms with ceiling-mounted camera positions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining rooms and multi-purpose rooms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment meeting spaces standardized on Cisco video\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-hands rooms with suspended tile ceilings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto\"\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRCT-PH1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRCT Series T-Bar Tile Ceiling Mounts\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMount Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecessed drop-tile (T-bar) ceiling mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSupported Cameras\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCisco PrecisionHD 1080p 12x \/ 4x (PHD) cameras\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConstruction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecessed backbox, mounting plate, camera cradle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSound Control Technologies, Norwalk, CT (USA)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDocumentation\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVendor-published series drawings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich Cisco cameras does the RCT-PH1 support?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe cradle is designed for Cisco PrecisionHD 1080p cameras (12x and 4x models).
