4 Channel Passive Video UTP Transceiver Hub Installation Instructions General This manual is a guide to the installation and operation of the VID-HUB-04P model VIDIPAC UTP. Please read the entire manual before installing. Brief description VID-HUB-04P model is a 4-channel passive transceiver hub with RJ45 and Terminal block UTP cable connection. This passive hub has built-in transient protection and excellent anti-interference ability. VID-HUB-04P Passive Hub allows 4-CCTV video signals to be transmitted via cost-effective Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable. Used with passive transceivers, the UTP CCTV passive transceiver hub can connect the CCTV security and surveillance equipments using standard structured cabling techniques for neater and more streamlined cabling instead of costly and bulky coaxial cable. VID-HUB-04P also works in conjunction with other VIDIPAC passive transceivers and passive hubs. Features of VID-HUB-04P • PAL, NTSC, SECOM video compatible • 4-channel Passive device, no power required • Transmission range: Colour signal up to 225m* working with passive transceivers • RJ45 & Terminal block UTP cable connection • BNC female connectors • Transient protection and excellent anti-interference ability • One year warranty Technical specifications Model Video Cable Type Environmental Vidipac VID-HUB-04P Bandwidth DC-6MHz Insertion Loss 0.5dB CMMR Typically 60dB 15kHz-5MHz Anti-transient Ability 6000V 1.2μS×50μS Coaxial Cable 75ohm Coaxial Connector 4 x BNC-female video connectors UTP Connection RJ45 and Terminal block connectors Specification* UTP 24AWG minimum, Cat-3 upwards, 225m* maximum distance PAL & 300m maximum NTSC for CAT-5 Resistance 100ohm±20% DC Loop Resistance 18ohm/100m Differential Capacitance 62pf/m Temperature Operating: -20° to 70° C Humidity 0~95% Weight 125g Mechanical: Dimensions - overall of Mechanical balun Weight Dimensions - overall of balun Mechanical Drawing Mechanical Drawing Installation 143 (L) × 60mm (W) × 28mm (H) 0.125kg *Product specifications are subject to change without notice Length 143mm !Width 60mm ! Height 28mm Installation Caution • Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) wires must be used. Note: Shielded twisted pair wires cause impedance mismatch • Make sure there are no untwisted wires as it may result in distorted image and interference. • Each video signal must use the same twisted pair. • Make sure there are no extra branch (or star connection) of twisted pair as it results in ghost image. Always connect the transceivers with point-to-point Unshielded Twisted Pair wires. • Coaxial cable length between the video equipment and the passive UTP transceiver balun must not exceed 1.8m. Transceiver installation • Connect the VID-HUB-04P passive transceivers hub as close as possible through the coaxial cable to the video equipments (Camera, monitors, VCRs, DVRs, etc.) • VID-HUB-04P passive transceiver hub has RJ45 and terminal block marked ‘+’ and ‘-’ for 4-video signals. • Use a pair of Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) wires to connect single video signal. • Make sure the ‘+’ of one transceiver is connected to the ‘+’ of another transceiver and vice versa for the ‘-’ terminal. • Make RJ45 connection according to the figure below and insert it into the RJ45 socket on the front panel of the transceiver hub. • Make RJ45 connection according to the figure below and insert it into the RJ45 socket on the front panel of the transceiver hub • Make RJ45 connection according to the figure below and insert it into the RJ45 socket on the front panel of the transceiver hub • Or make terminal block connection according to the figure below Or make terminal block connection according to the figure below • Or make terminal block connection according to the figure below Connection Diagram Connection Diagram Transceiver performance table for UTP video within 225m Transceiver Receiver Distance Antiinference Power Supply Floating Surge Protection NO NO YES VID-02P Page 4 VID-03P VID-Hub-04P VID-Hub-04P Up to 225m YES VID-Hub-08P VID-Hub-16P Troubleshooting • No Signal on the Monitor. Make sure Terminal are well connected Same pair of UTP wire is used • Twisted image. Make Sure ‘+’ terminal is connected to ‘+’ and vice versa for ‘-’ • The video image is somewhat red and a red bar moves downward. Make sure BNC connector is well connected Equipments are well grounded • The video is not stable and has ghost effect. Make sure There are no extra branch (or star connection) from the twisted pair A single length UTP wire is used • Noisy image. Make sure There are no untwisted UTP wires to avoid interference • Attenuated image. Make sure Coax length is less than 1.8m UTP length is less than 225m • Distorted image. Make sure To use UTP wires Cat3 upwards to avoid impedance mismatch. With sales and support from over 22 Locations
