OVERVIEW
Eliminate the expense of using coaxial cable with your
security systems. The Video PTZ Balun connects your security
or surveillance equipment using CAT3 or CAT5 twisted-pair
cable. It’s compatible with Pelco™Coaxitron™, Vicon™Vicoax,
Videoalarm™Coaxlynx™, and other digital coax pan, tilt, and
zoom (PTZ) security systems.
Perfect for campus and high-rise installations, the balun
spans the following distances:
• With Category 3 cable:
Color: 875 ft. (266.7 m);
B&W: 980 ft. (298.7 m)
• With Category 5 cable:
Color: 1250 ft. (381 m);
B&W: 1400 ft. (426.7 m)
Used in pairs, the balun lets you integrate CCTV security
and surveillance equipment into structured cabling systems.
You can control PTZ devices from any convenient modular
wall outlet to connect digital coax PTZ and video.
Use the baluns in your system, and you’ll have less
downtime and quicker moves, adds, and changes, as well
as neater wiring and smaller cable costs.
With a single four-pair CAT 5 cable, you can pass up to
four signals. And there’s no visible picture distortion from
crosstalk!
What’s more, the balun helps your system maintain a
steady video image when the system is idle.
Installing the balun is easy. It comes with a separate coax
lead. A handy VELCRO®strip is also included for mounting
the balun on the wall.

Recognize any of these situations?
• You wait more than 30 minutes to get through
to a vendor’s tech support.
• The so-called “tech” can’t help you or gives you
the wrong answer.
• You don’t have a purchase order number and the
tech refuses to help you.
• It’s 9 p. m. and you need help, but your vendor’s
tech support line is closed.
According to a survey by Data Communications
magazine, 90% of network managers surveyed say
that getting the technical support they need is extremely
important when choosing a vendor. But even though
network managers pay anywhere from 10 to 20% of their
overall purchase price for a basic service and support
contract, the technical support and service they receive falls
far short of their expectations—and certainly isn’t worth
what they paid.
At Black Box, we guarantee the best value and the
best support. You can even consult our Technical Support
Experts before you buy if you need help selecting just
the right component for your application.
Don’t waste time and money—call Black Box today.
