ACTIVE CCTV RECEIVER HUB, 16-PORT
3. Installation
WARNING
Do not connect the power supply to a video signal or ground terminals.
The hub might be damaged.
3.1 Pre-Installation Checklist
The checklist below describes what you need to consider before installing the
Active CCTV Receiver Hub.
1. The hub always connects to the receiver side of a CCTV installation. For
example, it connects directly to the video input ports of a DVR, CCTV
multiplexor, or matrix switch at the central monitoring location.
2. The hub is used with the passive CCTV baluns (part numbers IC440A,
IC444A, IC451A, or IC452A). The passive CCTV baluns connect at the CCTV
source, which is usually the CCTV camera.
NOTE
The Active CCTV Receiver Hub will also work with third-party vendor
baluns and CCTV cameras with built-in twisted-pair baluns (balanced
output). You might need to reverse the polarity of the wires first.
Distance performance may vary.
3. For best image quality and operator safety, the multiplexor or DVR should be
properly grounded. If this is not possible, then the hub should be properly
grounded via the ground screw on the unit. Make sure that there is a building
ground available for this purpose. See Figure 3-1.
