CCTV Power-Thru Converter Balun (500024-CNV)
Quick Installation Guide
Introduction
The CCTV Power-Thru Converter Balun (500024-CNV) allows video and remote
power to be transmitted via one 4-pair Cat 5e/6 cable, thus eliminating the need to
install multiple cables for more efficient cabling in the analog CCTV security and
surveillance environment. Furthermore the product converts 24VAC to 12VDC @
400mA to allow 12VDC cameras to be remotely powered from a central 24VAC
CCTV power supply. The CCTV Power-Thru Converter Balun works in
conjunction with MuxLab’s CCTV Power-Thru Balun (500024), Passive CCTV
Power Integrator Hub (500136), Passive CCTV Hub (500130) and LongReach II
Active Balun (500124) and Hub (500126, 500127) for a complete cabling solution.
Installation
Pre-Installation Checklist:
Note: For regulatory reasons, use of a Class II power supply is
recommended and may be required with the use of this product in some
regions.
1. The CCTV Power-Thru Converter Balun (500024-CNV) is designed to be
installed at the camera side.
2. Ensure the CCTV equipment and remote power supply is turned off.
3. One (1) twisted pair is required for the camera video signal. Three (3) twisted
pairs are required for remote power.
4. Verify that the cable length is within MuxLab specifications. The
maximum distance for 24VAC and remote power is 795 ft. (242m) at the
maximum allowable power consumption of 400mA.
5. Identify the pin configuration of the balun by checking the product label or the
specification section of this installation guide.
