Sound Control Technologies RTK-8CP – Microphone Extension Kit for Cisco Codec Pro

Product Overview

The Sound Control Technologies RTK-8CP RemoteTableKit is a dedicated microphone extension kit for Cisco Codec Pro and Room Kit Pro installations. It extends up to eight Cisco Table-E or Cisco Mic 60 microphones from the conference room table to the codec over a single CAT cable, eliminating the need for complex wiring runs across the ceiling or under flooring. Designed for commercial AV integrators and IT facilities teams deploying Cisco-based conference room systems, the RTK-8CP is a purpose-built solution that simplifies installation while maintaining audio quality.

Product Description

The RTK-8CP provides a clean, single-cable infrastructure path for Cisco microphone arrays in medium to large conference rooms. By consolidating up to eight Cisco Table-E or Cisco Mic 60 microphone connections into a single CAT cable run between the transmitter (table end) and receiver (codec end), the RTK-8CP dramatically reduces the cabling complexity typical of Cisco Codec Pro deployments. The kit ships with both a transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) module, each matched to Cisco's microphone interface.

For AV integrators, the RTK-8CP means fewer cable pathways to manage during rough-in and finish phases. For facilities managers, it means a cleaner installed appearance and a more maintainable infrastructure. The system requires no programming or configuration — plug-in installation means the Cisco codec recognizes the microphones as if they were directly connected. Country of origin: USA/Taiwan. MSRP: $3,045.

Key Features

• Up to 8 Cisco Microphones — Supports up to eight Cisco Table-E or Cisco Mic 60 microphones from a single table-end transmitter unit.
• Single CAT Cable Run — All microphone data and power traverse a single structured CAT cable between the TX and RX modules, simplifying conduit planning and reducing cable count.
• No Configuration Required — Plug-in operation; the Cisco Codec Pro recognizes connected microphones without additional programming or software setup.
• Matched TX/RX Kit — Ships as a complete set with a table-end transmitter and rack-end receiver, purpose-built for the Cisco Codec Pro and Room Kit Pro platform.
• SCTLink Technology — Uses SCT's proprietary link technology to maintain signal integrity over extended CAT cable runs.
• Commercial-Grade Construction — Built for permanent installation in commercial meeting spaces, boardrooms, and government facilities.

Typical Applications

• Boardroom with Cisco Codec Pro requiring multiple table microphones
• Large conference room with Cisco Room Kit Pro and distributed mic array
• Government or enterprise meeting space with structured cabling infrastructure
• Multi-purpose room with permanent Cisco videoconferencing installation
• Training room with Cisco-based audio/video system

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Cisco microphones are compatible with the RTK-8CP?

The RTK-8CP supports up to eight Cisco Table-E or Cisco Mic 60 microphones. It is designed specifically for use with the Cisco Codec Pro and Room Kit Pro platforms. Other Cisco microphone models are not guaranteed to be compatible.

Does the RTK-8CP require any programming or configuration?

No. The RTK-8CP is a plug-in device. Once the TX and RX modules are connected via a CAT cable and microphones are attached, the Cisco codec recognizes the microphones without any additional programming, control system integration, or software configuration.

What type of CAT cable is required?

The RTK-8CP uses a single CAT cable between the transmitter and receiver. Consult the SCT documentation or contact Creation Networks for specific cable category requirements and maximum run distance for your installation.

Can replacement modules be purchased separately?

Yes. The RTK-8CP-RX (receiver) and RTK-8CP-TX (transmitter) are available as individual replacement modules through Creation Networks, allowing you to replace a single module rather than the full kit in the event of a failure.

What warranty coverage applies to the RTK-8CP?

Contact Creation Networks for current Sound Control Technologies warranty terms applicable to the RTK-8CP.

Is the RTK-8CP suitable for permanent commercial installation?

Yes. The RTK-8CP is designed for permanent installation in commercial meeting spaces. Its single-cable infrastructure reduces long-term maintenance complexity compared to traditional multi-cable microphone wiring approaches.
