An RC5-CE add-on that delivers up to 42W PoE without adding power at the camera<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

NORWALK, Conn., March 19, 2026 \u2013 Sound Control Technologies (SCT) announces the release of the API-12, a compact adapter built to expand the capabilities of the RC5-CE camera extender module with high-power PoE support for cameras and video bars.<\/p>\n\n\n

When paired with the RC5-CE, the API-12 converts Ethernet and 12VDC into 48VDC PoE, delivering up to 42W to the connected device. This eliminates the need for a local power supply at the camera location while maintaining full Ethernet performance up to 1 Gbps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The API-12 is ideal for upgrade scenarios, including projects transitioning from the Cisco PTZ 4K to the Cisco Room Vision PTZ camera within existing RC5 deployments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAt SCT, we focus on simplifying what happens in the field,\u201d says Founder, CEO and President, David Neaderland. \u201cThe API-12 extends the life and flexibility of existing RC5 deployments while delivering up to 42 Watts of PoE over the same infrastructure. No extra outlets at the camera, no added complexity. Just reliable power and data where it\u2019s needed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
