The VideoEase Active CCTV Transmitter Balun (500100, 500101) provides enhanced performance for a single CCTV video channel via Cat5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. The balun is installed at the CCTV camera and is powered by the camera power supply.

There are two (2) models; 500100 for 12VDC cameras and 500101 for 24VAC cameras. The Active CCTV Transmitter Balun features ground loop isolation and manual gain compensation adjustment based on cable length.
