CCTV Video Balun with Power

CCTV Video Balun with Power

The CCTV Video Balun with Power is a passive video balun with power for HD security cameras (720p and 1080p AHD, HD-TVI and HD-CVI). These CCTV Video Balun with Power let installers use CAT5 cable instead of RG59 or RG6 coax cable for HD CCTV video and low voltage power transmission. The VB-HD5P comes as a pair for the transmitting and receiving end of your cable run. Installers connect their CAT-5 cable to each end of the VB-HD5P with a standard RJ-45 connector.

When choosing the correct Balun for your use, you should consider the distance of transmission. There are 2 types of Baluns, i.e. passive balun (non powered), and active balun (powered). For video transmission less than 1000ft, passive balun can be used on both the receiving and transmitting end. For distance farther than 1000ft  we recommend the use of Active Balun Video for the Transmitter and Active Balun Receivers for the best quality video signal up to 3000ft.

The maximum distance that can be achieved for video and power varies by the type of HD CCTV camera that your system uses and the resolution that you are transmitting. Please refer below.
