Overview:

Altronix HubSat4WP Passive UTP Transceiver Hub w/Integral Camera Power transmits UTP video, RS422/RS485 data and
power over a single CAT-5 or higher structured cable. Unit provides 4 camera channels in a wall mount enclosure. Video
transmission range is up to 750 ft. max. per channel. Units are compatible with AC and/or DC fixed or PTZ cameras when
utilizing Altronix HubWayAv, HubWayDv or HubWayDvi Video Balun/Combiners. In addition, the unit features individual­ly selectable 24VAC or 28VAC PTC protected outputs with surge suppression. Optionally, the HubSat4WP can be used as
an accessory module to transmit video from up to 4 cameras over a single CAT-5 or higher structured cables back to the
HubWay, HubWayLD or HubWayLDH Passive and Active UTP Transceiver Hubs. In addition, the HubSat4WP provides
power to these cameras locally to eliminate the possibility of voltage drop associated with long cable runs.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the unit to rain or
moisture. This installation should be made by qualified service personnel and should conform to
all local codes.

Installation Instructions:

HubSat4WP Outdoor Passive UTP Transceiver Hub with Integral Camera Power.

1. Mount unit in desired location. Use hardware supplied and stainless steel fasteners. Mark and predrill holes in the
wall to line up with the top two keyholes in the enclosure. Install two upper fasteners and screws in the wall with the
screw heads protruding. Place the enclosure’s upper keyholes over the two upper screws, level and secure. Mark the
position of the lower two holes. Remove the enclosure. Drill the lower holes and install the three fasteners. Place the
enclosure’s upper keyholes over the two upper screws. Install the two lower screws and make sure to tighten all
screws

9. Measure the output voltage at each Video Balun/Combiner (Figs. 2b, 2d, pg. 6) before making connections to
each camera to insure proper operation and avoid possible damage.

10. Set illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker to the (OFF) position

(Fig. 4a, pg. 6).

12. Connect the terminals marked [+ DATA -- ] of HubWayAv, HubWayDv or HubWayDvi Video Balun/Combiners
to data input terminals of cameras for PTZ control

(Figs. 2b-2d, pg. 6). Polarity must be observed.

When using fixed cameras disregard this step.

13. Connect the BNC connector of HubWayAv, HubWayDv or HubWayDvi Video Balun/Combiners to the
BNC video outputs of cameras

14. Set illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker to the RESET (ON) position

(Figs. 2b-2d, pg. 6).

(Fig. 4a, pg. 6).

15. The power LEDs (Green) of the HubSat4WP will illuminate when AC power is present (Fig. 1e, pg. 4).

Note: If an

y of the po

wer LEDs are not illuminated the cause may be due to the following:
a. AC mains fail.
b. Illuminated master power disconnect circuit breaker is tripped.
c. Primary in-line fuse is blown.

Replace fuse with same type and rating:

e. A PTC is tripped due to a short circuit or overload condition for one or more channels/power outputs.

To reset the PTC:

1. Set the voltage output selector switch for that corresponding channel to the OFF position. Switch must
remain in the OFF position for approximatel

y 2 minutes in order for the PTC to reset

(Fig

1. For fixed cameras run a single CAT-5 cable between HubSat4WP and HubWay, HubWayLD or HubWayLDH
to allow video transmission of up to four (4) cameras. For PTZs run two (2) CAT-5 cables between HubSat4WP
and HubWay, HubWayLD or HubWayLDH

(Fig. 6, pg. 7).

a. Connect one (1) of the CAT-5 cables to the RJ45 jack marked [Video 1-4] on HubSat4WP. Connect the

opposite end of this CAT-5 cable into the RJ45 jack marked [CH 1-4] of HubWay, HubWayLD or
