The Intelix AVO-V1 video balun eliminates 75-ohm
coaxial cable and allows composite baseband video
to be transmitted via a single unshielded twisted pair
(UTP) cable, such as Cat 5. Typically, AVO-V1
baluns are used in pairs to transmit standard NTSC,
PAL, or SECAM composite video.

The AVO-V1 is used with video equipment, as well
as CCTV security and surveillance equipment, such
as CCTV cameras, monitors, DVRs, video

sequencers, video multiplexers, quads, video switchers, CCTV camera servers, and VCRs.

To install an AVO-V1 balun, perform the following steps:

1. Turn off power and disconnect the video equipment by following the manufacturer’s

instructions.

2. Run your unshielded twisted pair cabling, such as Cat 5. One twisted pair is

required for each camera signal.

3. The AVO-V1

balun works in pairs. Plug one AVO-V1

balun into the BNC

connector of the source device.

4. Plug a second balun into the BNC connector of the destination equipment at the

other end of the cable.

5. Connect a structured cable, such as Cat 5, to each RJ45 connector of the baluns.

Verify the pinout on the connector conforms to the EIA/TIA 568A or 568B pattern.

6. Power-on the video equipment and check the picture quality. The video should be

clear and sharp within the maximum specified distances.

Installation

Caution: Do not attempt to open the balun housing. There are no user-serviceable parts

inside the AVO-V1. Opening the unit will void your warranty.

Caution: Do not connect the AVO-V1-ST to a telecommunication outlet wired to

unrelated equipment. Making such a connection may damage the equipment
and/or balun. Please ensure all wiring is “straight-through.”

Caution: Do not mount the balun over equipment ventilation openings. Covering the

openings may cause the equipment to overheat.
