What Is a Video Balun Amplifier?
A video balun amplifier is a device used in CCTV and surveillance systems to transmit video signals over twisted pair or coaxial cables across greater distances than standard passive baluns allow. By actively amplifying the signal, it reduces the effects of attenuation and frequency distortion, ensuring your security camera footage arrives at the recorder or monitor with maximum clarity.
