POWER RJ-45: The EZIM CCU receives 36 VDC on one Cat-5
cable (all 4-pair) from the CCU.
Be sure to mark the Power Cat-5 and avoid plugging it
into a place it doesn’t belong.
G/L Gain Potentiometer: Adjust this level control to the level
that works with the system. This control exists to compensate for
the length of the cable used.
RS-232 IN / G/L IN RJ-45: Connect this RJ-45 with a Cat-5 cable to the RS-232 OUT / G/L OUT RJ-45 on the
back of the CCU.
Video RJ-45: This RJ-45 sends the camera’s four (4) video signals on 4-pr (differential video) from the EZIM
CCU to the Quick-Connect CCU on Cat-5 cable.
Installation:
Installation Basics:
The WallVIEW CCU system was specifically designed for installation on a vertical wall surface with
Cat-5 cable connectivity for Video, Power and Control signaling (three Cat-5 cables are required).
Installation is simplified in that no custom 8-Pin mini-din cables or expensive plenum coax cables are
needed and no power outlets are required near the camera bracket. All cabling is routed to the
head-end using Cat-5 cables using standard straight through RJ-45 connectors (568B termination).
“Pass-thru” type RJ-45 connectors should never be used.
Before Installing:
 Locate the camera mounting location paying close attention to camera viewing angles, lighting conditions,
possible line of site obstructions, and checking for in-wall obstructions where the camera is to be mounted.
Pick a mounting location that will optimize the performance of the camera.
Pre-wire all cabling as required, test and mark the cables POWER, VIDEO and CONTROL. Do
not guess at the cable’s function and try the “process of elimination method” and plug the
POWER cable into all the RJ-45 jacks to see which one cable powers the camera. In all
likelihood, this method will cause damage to your system and your warranty will be voided.
RS-232 Cabling:
 If the camera is connected to a third-party control system (such as AMX or Crestron), a DB-9 to RJ-45 control
adapter cable is supplied.
Please do not use “pass-thru” type RJ-45 connectors. The Vaddio Cat-5 wiring standard
uses pins 7 and 8 on both the video and the control Cat-5e cables. The pass-through connectors
have proven to provide insufficient connectivity for these important signals. They are “ok” for
voice and data, but not for video and control.
