Troubleshooting:


All transmission distances mentioned above are without connecting image processors (e.g. Quad, Multiplexer, or DVR). The transmission range would be reduced 300-600Ft (100-200M) upon different camera, cable, DVR … etc.

These products are designed for long range transmission, utilizing the built-in video amplifier function. If your transmission range is under 300 feet (100 meters), setting the video gain function too high will result in snowy, wavy, or overly bright images. It is recommended that this product be used for long transmission distances over 100M. For shorter distances use an alternate passive video transceiver such as the VB100 series.

The VB100T active transmitter has a switch with 3 different distance ranges for the range of transmissions. Please switch to the appropriate range upon your application to avoid any weak or bad image.

How does a balun work?
Baluns are used to convert between "Balanced and Unbalanced" electrical signals.
Baluns work by transforming the original unbalanced (video/power/data/etc) signal to a balanced frequency used by a different cable, like CAT5 UTP. Not only does this reduce interference, but it also allows you to transmit a signal much longer than the original application would allow. Baluns are always utilized in pairs. One balun is needed to convert the original signal to a new frequency, and another balun is used at the other end to revert to the original frequency.

"Passive" Video Baluns do not require power, and can extend a signal up to 2000ft (B/W)
"Active" Video Baluns require power, but can extend a signal up to 8000ft (B/W)
