Overview
1.1. Description
The LongReach II Active CCTV Receiver Hub (500126, 500127)
allows analog CCTV video signals to be transmitted up to 1 mile
(1.6 km) via a Category 5e/6 twisted pair cable when used in
conjunction with MuxLab’s passive CCTV baluns (i.e. 500000,
500009, 500022, 500024) at the camera end. The LongReach II
Hub features Automatic Gain Control (AGC) and Ground Loop
Isolation (GLI) for reliable and stable image quality. Once
installed, no adjustments to the hub are needed. The hub
automatically adjusts the brightness, sharpness and color intensity
of the video signal based on the actual cable conditions such as
cable grade, distance, environmental effects on the cable, etc. Once
installed, there is no further need to go on-site to check the video
signal. Any further enhancements to the image may be made at the
camera, monitor or DVR. The product requires a 5VDC, 13 Watt
power supply (included) and connects directly to the DVR, IP
encoder or matrix switcher. The LongReach II Hub also allows
video, remote power and 2-wire PTZ control to be combined over
Cat5e/6 cable and features ground loop isolation (GLI) for
optimum video transmission. The hub also features surge
protection for more reliable operation.
