Sumario:CMS is a general purpose detector that operates at the LHC. The PACT is a Level-1, RPC based muon sub-trigger of the CMS experiment. In this paper an overview of the CMS and its muon trigger is given. The principles of the PACT system are explained. The PACT performance during the LHC Run-1 is presented, including efficiency, stability and rate. The role of the PACT in the Level-1 muon trigger system is exposed. The perspectives for the RPC system in the context of CMS modifications are discussed.
