Sound Control Technologies RCU2S-C00 – USB 2.0 Camera Extension Kit Variant

Product Overview

The Sound Control Technologies RCU2S-C00 is a USB 2.0 camera extension kit that extends USB 2.0/UVC video, bi-directional audio, and 5V/12V camera power up to 300 feet over a single CAT cable. Part of the RemoteCamUSB2S platform, it is engineered for commercial AV integrators placing USB cameras at distance from rack-mounted codecs or host computers. The C00 variant includes a camera-specific cable kit — contact Creation Networks for the exact camera models supported by this configuration. It is suitable for conference rooms, boardrooms, and multi-purpose commercial meeting spaces.

Product Description

The RCU2S-C00 consists of a Head End (HE) unit placed at the codec or host system, and a Camera End (CE) unit mounted at the camera location. A single CAT5e or CAT6 cable between these units carries USB 2.0/UVC video, bi-directional audio, and camera power — replacing multiple discrete cable runs with a single structured cabling infrastructure path.

The 5V/12V power delivery at the camera end eliminates the need for a local power supply at the camera mount. UVC compliance ensures the camera is recognized as a standard USB video device by any USB 2.0 host on Windows, macOS, or Linux without installing proprietary drivers. The bi-directional audio channel supports microphone signal transport or intercom functions depending on the connected camera's capabilities.

The RCU2S-C00 is one of multiple cable kit variants in the RCU2S family, each matched to a specific set of camera models. For integrators needing Ethernet camera control in addition to USB extension, see the RCU2E family. Replacement modules (RCU2S-CE and RCU2S-HE) are available separately.

Key Features

• 300-Foot USB 2.0 Extension — Extends USB/UVC camera signal up to 300 feet over one CAT5e or CAT6 cable.
• 5V/12V Integrated Camera Power — Supplies camera power over the CAT run, eliminating a separate power drop at the camera location.
• Bi-Directional Audio Transport — Carries bi-directional audio for microphone or intercom functions alongside the video signal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which cameras are compatible with the RCU2S-C00?

The C00 cable kit variant supports specific camera models. Contact Creation Networks for the current SCT compatibility list for this configuration.

Does this kit include RS-232 serial control?

No. The standard RCU2S-C00 does not include RS-232. For RS-232 PTZ control, refer to RCU2S variants with A8 or B6 in the suffix.

What cable infrastructure does the kit require?

One CAT5e or CAT6 cable run up to 300 feet between the Head End and Camera End. Standard TIA-568 cabling practices apply.

Is the RCU2S-C00 compatible with BYOD/BYOM setups?

Yes. As a UVC device, the camera connected through the RCU2S-C00 is recognized by any USB 2.0 host, including personal laptops used in BYOD/BYOM conference room setups.
