{"product_id":"replacement-module-7","title":"Sound Control Technologies RC4-HE – RemoteCam4 Head-End Replacement Module","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Sound Control Technologies RC4-HE is the head-end replacement module for the RemoteCam4 camera extension platform. RemoteCam4 delivers HDMI video, RS-232 control, and camera power over a single CAT cable up to 100 meters between the codec rack and a PTZ camera. This replacement module lets AV integrators and facilities managers restore a failed RemoteCam4 installation by swapping only the rack-side head-end module, keeping the camera-end module and installed cabling in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a RemoteCam4 system, the head-end module sits in the equipment rack near the codec and links to the RC4-CE camera-end module over the SCTLink CAT cable. The platform supports Cisco PrecisionHD and Precision series cameras, Poly EagleEye models, Panasonic, AVer, ClearOne, Crestron 1Beyond, and other professional PTZ cameras depending on kit configuration, carrying HDMI video, RS-232 serial control, and camera power on the single link. When troubleshooting isolates a fault to the rack side, replacing only the RC4-HE restores full system operation without disturbing the camera-end module, camera cabling, or the field-run CAT link. The module is a like-for-like replacement built to the original RemoteCam4 specification and pairs directly with the installed camera-end electronics. It mounts on the SCT rack shelf supplied with RemoteCam4 kits for proper ventilation and cable management, making the swap a quick rack-side service task that protects the original installation investment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRemoteCam4-Specific Replacement\u003c\/strong\u003e — Drop-in head-end module for RemoteCam4 camera extension systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eField-Replaceable\u003c\/strong\u003e — Restores a failed system without replacing the camera-end module, power supply, or installed CAT cabling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHDMI Video Transport\u003c\/strong\u003e — Maintains the platform's HDMI video path over the SCTLink connection up to 100 meters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRS-232 Control Path\u003c\/strong\u003e — Preserves serial camera control between codec and camera across the extension.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRack-Side Installation\u003c\/strong\u003e — Mounts at the codec rack on the SCT rack shelf for clean service access.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLike-for-Like Pairing\u003c\/strong\u003e — Pairs directly with the existing RC4-CE camera-end module over the installed link cable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoardroom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-hands room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-purpose room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto\"\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel \/ SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRC4-HE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModule Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHead-End Replacement Module (rack\/codec side)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible System\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRemoteCam4 camera extension platform\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTransport\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDMI video, RS-232 control, and camera power over SCTLink\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLink Cable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle CAT cable up to 100m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePairs With\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRC4-CE camera-end module\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSCT standard advance replacement limited warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the RC4-HE compatible with other RemoteCam platforms?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The RC4-HE is the head-end replacement specifically for RemoteCam4 systems.
