GE Security Multi-Channel Video Power Data Combiner Receivers combine video,
PTZ data, and camera power over a single 4-pair UTP cable to simplify CCTV
installations in a structured wiring environment. They support up to 16 cameras
and should be installed in the control room.
The GEC-4VDPBC and GEC-16VDPBC need to be used along with external class II
power supplies. The GEC-8PVPDTCHUB and GEC-16PVPDTCHUB come with builtin 8 and 16 channel fully isolated class II 24/28 VAC power supplies. Each camera
power output in addition to an auto-reset fuse is equipped with a 2 A glass fuse
that is easily accessible from the front panel.
At the camera end a video balun/combiner provides video, power and data on
separate outputs. The video connections are through BNC connectors to the DVR
or matrix switches. The data connections to the DVR are through RJ-45
connectors. There is a separate data connection for each camera. All equipment
follows industry-standard EIA/TIA 568B pin-outs.
The following model numbers are covered in this document:
8) Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
9) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other
apparatus (including DVRs) that produce heat.
10) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug
has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a
third grounding prong. The wider blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the
provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the
obsolete outlet.
11) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
12) Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
13) Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
14) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus
has been damaged in any way, such as a power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has
been spilled, or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to
rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
"dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and
maintenance instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

Wiring Technical Notes
These technical notes should all be considered prior to installing these devices.
• Use point to point unshielded twisted pair wire 24-16 AWG (0, 5-1, 3 mm)
stranded or solid, Category 2 or better.
• The video signal may coexist in the same wire bundle as other video,
telephone, data, control signals, or low-voltage power. You can run GE video
signals in or near electromagnetic fields (in accordance with National
Electrical Code, local or other local safety requirements).
• DO NOT USE SHIELDED TWISTED PAIR WIRE. Multi-pair (8 pair or more) wires
with an overall shield are fine.
• DO NOT USE UN-TWISTED WIRE.
• DO NOT place a transmit and a receive signal in the same wire bundle. It
may cause interference.
• DO NOT send Up-the-Coax Pan/Tilt/Zoom signals through active (amplified)
GE transmitters or receivers. Passive GE transceivers can transmit video and
Up-the-Coax P/T/Z control signals up to 750 ft. (228 m).
• We recommend using short 18 AWG solid wires for ground connections.
• GE VPD products follow the EIA/TIA 568 standard. There are two wire colorcode standards: EIA/TIA 568A and EIA/TIA 568B. Either standard can be used
for making connections as long as the RJ-45 jacks at both ends of each
cable follow the same standard.
• Measure wire distance by:
1. Shorting the two conductors together at the far end, and measuring
the loop-resistance by an Ohmmeter.
2. Use the Loop Resistance table to calculate the distance.
• DO NOT connect coax cables longer than 100 ft. (30 M) to the BNC
connectors of any GE UTP equipment.
• All measured distances should include any coax cables in the path.
• Verify camera current requirements and wire resistance limits for the
maximum distance that power can travel. Use the Power Distance Chart to
verify the wire distance.
• GE VPD products require Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP) wires Category 2 or
better, 24 AWG (0,5 mm) or thicker.

Important Safety Warnings
• Installation should be made by a qualified service person and should
conform to all local codes.
• DO NOT bundle UTP signals in the same conduit as high-voltage wiring.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose these products to
rain, moisture, dripping or splashing.
• No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on GE equipment.
• DO NOT block ventilation openings to let sufficient airflow to the UTP devices.
• The Main fuse for models with built-in AC power supply is 5 A at 110 VAC or
at 3 A 220 VAC. Each camera power fuse is 2 A and can be accessed by
removing the front panel. Fuses may be replaced by a qualified service
person only when the unit is off and AC power cord is unplugged.
• Use only the power cord and plug supplied with the unit for connecting to AC
outlets.
• Only unplugging the power cord is considered as a main power disconnect.
