Features
A video balun lets a CCTV camera and recorder talk over twisted pair network cable instead of coax. This one has a BNC male plug on one end and a screw terminal block on the other. You wire the Cat5e or Cat6 UTP cable into the terminals, no special tools needed, and plug the BNC into the camera or the recorder.
It is passive, so it needs no power. Balun units are used in pairs, one at the camera and one at the recorder. It carries HD-TVI, AHD, CVI and standard analogue video, for cameras up to 8MP (4K).
The usual reason to use baluns is that a building already has Cat5e or Cat6 cable run to where the cameras go. You can reuse it and save pulling new coax. Make sure the cable is in good condition and joined without breaks, and keep it away from mains cables, which can add interference to the picture.
Baluns are for analogue-style cameras, those that output TVI, AHD, CVI or CVBS over a BNC connector. They will not carry the signal of an IP camera, which connects with an RJ45 network lead. Both ends must be baluns and the camera and recorder must be set to the same video format.
Strip the cable, put each wire into the correct terminal and tighten the screws. Match the wiring at both ends so the pairs line up.
Yes. Use one at the camera end and one at the recorder end of each cable.
No. It is passive.
Cat5e or Cat6 twisted pair (UTP).
No. It is for HD-TVI, AHD, CVI and analogue cameras with BNC outputs.
