{"product_id":"rcu2e-a00™-supporting-minrray","title":"Sound Control Technologies RCU2E-A00 – USB Camera Extension Kit for Minrray","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Sound Control Technologies RCU2E-A00 is a camera-specific USB 2.0 extension kit engineered for Minrray PTZ cameras in commercial AV installations. This RemoteCamUSB2E kit extends USB 2.0\/UVC video, Ethernet, 5V\/12V\/PoE camera power, and bi-directional audio over a single CAT cable run — eliminating the need for multiple cable paths or external power supplies at the camera end. Designed for AV integrators deploying Minrray cameras in conference rooms, boardrooms, and corporate meeting spaces where clean, long-distance camera runs are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RCU2E-A00 is a complete camera extension kit that includes both the camera-end (CE) module and the head-end (HE) module, pre-configured with the specific cable assembly required for Minrray PTZ cameras. Installation requires a field-terminated CAT 5e\/6 cable between the two modules — no additional signal converters or power adapters are needed at the camera location. The head-end module connects to the room's USB host (codec, PC, or BYOM device) and local network switch, while the camera-end module delivers USB data, Ethernet connectivity, and camera power to the Minrray camera. Bi-directional audio is carried on the same CAT cable, supporting integrated AV system designs where audio and video share infrastructure. The RCU2E platform is a proven commercial-grade solution for permanent installation in conference rooms, training rooms, and all-hands spaces where camera placement is dictated by room geometry rather than cable routing convenience. Each kit ships as a matched pair with the correct camera-specific cable assembly — no field sourcing of proprietary cables required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB 2.0\/UVC Extension\u003c\/strong\u003e — Extends full USB 2.0 bandwidth for UVC-class PTZ cameras over CAT cable without compression or signal degradation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated Ethernet\u003c\/strong\u003e — Carries a dedicated Ethernet channel on the same CAT run for camera network management and control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5V\/12V\/PoE Camera Power Delivery\u003c\/strong\u003e — Delivers camera power over the CAT cable, eliminating the need for a local power outlet at the camera mount location.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBi-Directional Audio\u003c\/strong\u003e — Supports bi-directional audio transport on the same cable infrastructure for integrated AV room designs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinrray PTZ Camera Compatible\u003c\/strong\u003e — Kit includes the correct camera-specific cable assembly for Minrray cameras — no custom fabrication required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMatched CE\/HE Module Pair\u003c\/strong\u003e — Ships with both camera-end and head-end modules pre-configured for immediate deployment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommercial-Grade Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e — Manufactured in the USA\/Taiwan for permanent installation in commercial AV environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle CAT Cable Run\u003c\/strong\u003e — Consolidates USB, Ethernet, power, and audio on one cable, reducing conduit fill and installation labor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference room camera installations with extended cable runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoardroom AV systems with ceiling- or wall-mounted PTZ cameras\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorporate meeting spaces with BYOD\/BYOM codec deployments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining rooms requiring flexible camera placement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-hands rooms and large meeting spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment spaces requiring clean, consolidated cable infrastructure\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\u003eRCU2E-A00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Family\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRemoteCamUSB2E\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible Camera\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinrray PTZ cameras\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSignal Types Carried\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSB 2.0\/UVC, Ethernet, 5V\/12V\/PoE Camera Power, Bi-Directional Audio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable Medium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCAT 5e\/6 (field-terminated)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncludes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCamera-End (CE) module, Head-End (HE) module, camera-specific cable assembly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEach (matched pair)\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$1,945.00\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 Minrray cameras are compatible with the RCU2E-A00?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RCU2E-A00 is configured with the cable assembly required for Minrray PTZ cameras.
