Altronix HubSat8Di Passive UTP Transceiver Hub with Integral Isolated

Camera Power

Overview

Altronix HubSat8Di Passive UTP Transceiver Hub with Integral Isolated Camera Power transmits UTP video, RS422/RS485 data and power over a single CAT-5 or higher structured cable. Unit provides 8 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 or HubWayDv Video Balun/Combiners. In addition, the unit features individually selectable 24VAC or 28VAC PTC-protected outputs with surge suppression. Optionally, the HubSat8Di can be used as an accessory module to transmit video from up to 8 cameras over two (2) separate CAT-5 or higher structured cables back to the HubWay, HubWayLD or HubWayLDH Passive and Active UTP Transceiver Hubs. In addition, the HubSat8Di provides power to these cameras locally to eliminate the possibility of voltage drop associated with long cable runs.
