Sound Control Technologies RCU2S-BPC – USB 2.0 Extension Kit for Biamp Parle VBC 2500

Product Overview

The Sound Control Technologies RCU2S-BPC is a USB 2.0 camera extension kit designed for the Biamp Parle VBC 2500 video bar. It extends USB 2.0/UVC video, bi-directional audio, and 5V/12V camera power up to 300 feet over a single CAT cable, enabling the Biamp Parle VBC 2500 to be deployed at distance from a rack-mounted codec or host system. The BPC cable kit is matched to the Biamp Parle VBC 2500 USB interface. This kit is a straightforward solution for AV integrators deploying Biamp's collaboration bar in conference rooms and boardrooms where the device must be placed remotely from the codec or UC host.

Product Description

The RCU2S-BPC places a Head End (HE) unit at the codec or USB host and a Camera End (CE) unit at the Biamp Parle VBC 2500 location. A single CAT5e or CAT6 cable between these units carries USB 2.0/UVC video, bi-directional audio, and camera power — eliminating multiple discrete cable runs to the Biamp device location. The BPC cable kit provides the specific USB connection matched to the Biamp Parle VBC 2500.

Power delivery at the camera end supports 5V and 12V DC, so the Biamp device does not require a separate local power supply at the mount location. The bi-directional audio channel supports audio signal transport between the Biamp Parle VBC 2500 and the head end — important for speakerphone and microphone functionality. UVC compliance ensures the device is recognized as a standard USB video device on any USB 2.0 host without proprietary drivers, compatible with Microsoft Teams Rooms, Zoom Rooms, Cisco, Poly, and BYOM platforms.
