Video baluns used for HD surveillance cameras

Video balun, devices for video transmission via UTP cable. Video baluns are converters used in surveillance systems for transmitting video and/or audio signals and/or power supply over distances of up to 300M in the case of passive video baluns and up to 500-600M in the case of active converters accompanied by signal amplifiers. Passive converters, as they are also called, are used in  traditional, analog surveillance systems , but also in newer technologies such as AHD, CVI or TVI. Video baluns are used in pairs, one side is mounted on the UTP cable at the end facing the camera, and the pair is mounted on the other end of the cable that enters the BNC socket of the DVR. In addition to the standard video balun model, there are also variants with video signal and power or with power and audio. In this way, each video balun has an RJ-45 connector at one end, and a BNC jack at the other end, a female power jack (and the video balun pair will have a male jack) and an RCA jack. Although the video baluns used in analog systems can be used without any problems in HD systems, recently video baluns dedicated to AHD, CVI and TVI technologies have been developed and launched. In our offer you will find all available types. It is necessary to take into account the HD system used, however, because the video signal transmission distance through HD video baluns is different from technology to technology. If you have implemented a complex system, of larger size and classic video baluns are not a cost-effective option, it is recommended to look at another version of video balun, in a galvanized casing, which can be mounted on the wall and supports a large number of cameras.
