Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a passive CCTV video balun transceiver and how does it work?
A: A passive HD video balun transceiver converts the BNC coaxial signal from your CCTV camera or DVR to run over standard Cat5/Cat5e/Cat6 UTP twisted-pair cable — and back again at the other end. It requires no external power, making installation simple and cost-effective. This model supports HD-CVI, HD-AHD, and HD-TVI formats at 2MP, 3MP, and 4MP resolutions with transmission distances up to 200M (and up to 600M in optimal conditions).
Q: What cable types are compatible with this HD CCTV passive video balun?
A: This passive video balun transceiver is compatible with standard Cat5, Cat5e, and Cat6 UTP twisted-pair Ethernet cable. Using UTP cable instead of coaxial cable can reduce your overall wiring costs by 10–20%, making it an economical choice for large CCTV installations.
Q: Is this video balun compatible with my existing DVR and cameras?
A: Yes — as long as your cameras and DVR use BNC connectors and support HD-CVI, HD-AHD, or HD-TVI formats at 2MP, 3MP, or 4MP, these passive transceivers will integrate seamlessly. They are sold as a pair (2 pcs), providing a complete point-to-point transmission solution straight out of the box.
