Sound Control Technologies RC7-CE – RemoteCam7 Camera-End Replacement Module

Product Overview

The Sound Control Technologies RC7-CE is the camera-end replacement module for the RemoteCam7 camera extension system. The RemoteCam7 platform extends camera power, HDMI video, PTZ control, and dual-channel audio over a single CAT6 cable from 10m to 100m, supporting cameras such as the Poly Director II, Panasonic AW-UE150, Sony BRC-H800, and Sony BRC-X1000. This replacement module lets AV integrators and facilities managers restore a failed RemoteCam7 installation by replacing only the camera-side module, leaving the head-end module and installed cabling in place.

Product Description

In a RemoteCam7 system, the RC7-CE camera-end module mounts at the camera position — often integrated into an RC-CUBBY on-wall mount — and links to the RC7-HE head-end module at the codec rack over the SCTLink CAT6 cable. The camera end accepts the HDMI input from the camera, provides a single 10/100 Ethernet port, offers 3.5mm TRS stereo audio I/O, and powers the camera assembly through its 12VDC barrel output so no factory camera power supply is required at the camera location. Because the RemoteCam7 platform has reached end of life as a complete kit, the RC7-CE replacement module is the practical way to keep an existing room in service: the installed RC7-HE, WPS-48 power supply, and CAT6 cabling all remain. The module is a like-for-like replacement built to the original RemoteCam7 specification and maintains manufacturer firmware update pass-through from the codec to the camera.

Frequently Asked Questions

The RemoteCam7 platform is end of life — can I still repair my system?

Yes. The RC7-CE replacement module lets you restore an installed RemoteCam7 system without replacing the head-end module, power supply, or cabling.

How do I know whether I need the RC7-CE or the RC7-HE?

The RC7-CE is the camera-side module; the RC7-HE is the rack-side (codec end) module. If the fault is at the equipment rack, you need the RC7-HE. Contact Creation Networks for diagnostic support.

Will the RC7-CE pair with my existing RC7-HE?

Yes. The RC7-CE is a like-for-like replacement that pairs directly with the installed RC7-HE head-end module over your existing CAT6 SCTLink cable.

Does the RC7-CE power my camera?

Yes. Power is delivered over the SCTLink from the head end, and the RC7-CE feeds the camera assembly through its 12VDC barrel output, so no factory camera power supply is needed at the camera position.

What warranty applies to this replacement module?

Sound Control Technologies provides a 3-year standard advance replacement limited warranty. Contact Creation Networks for current warranty terms.
