Product Overview

This pack contains 20 passive video baluns from VideoSecu, model VB202TW. They transmit analogue CCTV signals over standard Cat5 twisted-pair cable instead of coaxial wire. The devices are unpowered and use BNC male to terminal-block connections for quick installation. They suit installers replacing or extending coaxial runs in existing structured cabling.

Installation Checklist

Verify that each camera and DVR endpoint has a BNC female port for the balun's male connector. Confirm the cable run uses unshielded twisted-pair rated for the required distance. Ensure you have a small screwdriver to secure wires into the terminal blocks. No external power supply is needed for these passive units.

Ideal Use Cases

This kit fits projects needing many camera links over long UTP runs where coaxial cost or bulk is prohibitive. It works for monochrome signals up to 1,000 feet and colour up to 800 feet. Buyers who need powered transmission for longer distances, HD-SDI or IP camera compatibility should look at active or digital alternatives.

Questions about this item

What comes in the 20-piece pack and do I need to buy anything else to connect cameras?

The pack contains ten pairs of passive video baluns with BNC male to terminal block connectors. You will need to supply Cat5 or other UTP cable for each run.

How do I decide between monochrome and colour distance limits for my installation?

Plan for up to 1,000 feet for monochrome signals or up to 800 feet for colour signals over the same twisted-pair cable.

What does the 1,000-foot monochrome range mean once the baluns are installed in a real system?

A single passive pair can carry a monochrome video signal up to 1,000 feet over ordinary UTP cable without external power.
