HD CCTV Passive Video Balun Transceivers — 200M Range, BNC to UTP CAT5

Upgrade your surveillance setup with these HD Passive Video Balun Transceivers — a compact, cost-effective solution for transmitting high-definition CCTV signals over standard CAT5/CAT6 twisted-pair cable instead of expensive coaxial cable. Compatible with AHD, CVI, TVI, and 8MP 4K HD camera systems, these passive transceivers support transmission distances of up to 200 metres, making them ideal for residential and commercial security installations.

Sold as a pair (2 pcs), they work together at each end of a UTP cable run to convert BNC coaxial signals for long-distance twisted-pair transmission — no external power required.

How It Works

Connect one balun transceiver to your CCTV camera's BNC output and the other to your DVR's BNC input. Run a standard CAT5/CAT6 UTP cable between the two units — that's it. The passive baluns convert and transmit HD video signals across the twisted-pair cable with no signal degradation over the full 200-metre range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are CCTV passive video balun transceivers used for?

A: Passive video balun transceivers allow you to transmit HD CCTV video signals (AHD, CVI, TVI, 4K) over standard CAT5 or CAT6 UTP twisted-pair cable instead of coaxial cable. This reduces installation costs by 10–20% while maintaining high-quality video up to 200 metres. No external power is required — simply connect one unit at the camera end and one at the DVR end.

Q: Which camera formats are compatible with the 205PVA passive transceivers?

A: The 205PVA passive video balun transceivers are compatible with AHD, HD-CVI, HD-TVI, and 4K 8MP HD camera formats. They work with most standard CCTV DVR systems that use BNC connectors, making them a versatile solution for new and existing security camera installations.

Q: Do these video balun transceivers require a power supply?

A: No — these are fully passive transceivers, meaning they require no external power source. They draw no power and contain no active electronics, making installation straightforward and maintenance-free. Simply connect them at both ends of your UTP CAT5/CAT6 cable run between your camera and DVR.

Q: How many units are included in the pack?

A: Each pack includes 2 passive video balun transceivers — one for the camera end and one for the DVR/recorder end. This gives you everything you need to complete one full camera-to-DVR cable run using twisted-pair UTP cable.
