3.5. Installation Procedure – UTP/UTP Version
The LongReach 16 is available in two models; UTP/UTP (500120,500121)
and UTP/Coax (50022, 500123). The 500120 allows the unit to be installed in
a remote wiring location away from the central monitoring equipment. The
LongReach may be installed up to 500 feet away from the DVR via Cat 5 UTP
cable. In order to install the product in this configuration, please follow the
steps below:
1. Install the LongReach 16 in its final location. Please verify that the
distance between the hub and cameras and between the hub and DVR are
within MuxLab specifications.
2. Connect a MuxLab passive CCTV Balun (MuxLab p/n 500000, 500009,
500022, 500023) to each CCTV camera video output port. Please refer to
the CCTV Balun Installation Guide for details.
3. Connect one twisted pair from each camera to one port on the rear of the
LongReach 16. Please ensure that straight-through polarity is respected
between the CCTV balun and the hub. Multipair cables are supported as
long as they are Category 5 or better.
