System Overview and Connections

AVer Cam550 Camera Setup

The AVer Cam550 is a PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) camera. It connects to the RCU2E-CE™ module via:

  • USB-A to USB-B Cable: RCC-M004-0.3M (0.3 meters)
  • RJ45 to RJ45 Cable: RCC-C002-0.3M (0.3 meters)

The camera's rear panel typically features USB-A, USB-B, Ethernet, and power ports.

RCU2E-CE™ Module (Camera End)

The RCU2E-CE™ module acts as the camera end for the SCTLink™ system, providing a single cable powered link. It features:

  • Ethernet Port: For network connectivity.
  • USB Port: For camera connection.
  • Power Input: Accepts DC power.
  • SCTLink™ Port (RJ45): Connects to the RCU2E-HE™ module via CAT5e/6 cable.
  • LED Indicators: Power and Status LEDs.

A DC Power Plug (PPC-003-0.3M) is used to supply power to the RCU2E-CE™ module.

RCU2E-HE™ Module (Head End)

The RCU2E-HE™ module serves as the head end of the SCTLink™ system. Its front panel includes a microSD slot for field upgrades.

Ports include:

  • Ethernet Port: For network connectivity.
  • Line Out Port: For audio/video output.
  • Line In Port: For audio/video input.
  • USB 2.0 Port: For connecting to a host device like a laptop.
  • SCTLink™ Power Port: Receives power via the SCTLink™ cable.

SCTLink™ Cable Specifications

The SCTLink™ cable is crucial for transmitting Power, Control, and Video signals. Key specifications include:

  • Cable Type: Integrator-supplied CAT5e/CAT6 STP/UTP cable.
  • Connector Type: RJ45.
  • Wiring Standard: T568A or T568B.
  • Maximum Length: 100 meters.

Important Note: The SCTLink™ cable must be a single, point-to-point CAT cable with no couplers or interconnections.

RJ45 Pinout: Standard pin assignments for T568A and T568B are provided.
