3.6. Installation Procedure – Model 500131
The Passive CCTV Hub, Model 500131 features screw terminal connectors on
the video portion of the device, thereby allowing it to be connected via twisted
pair to the head end equipment (DVR). Video baluns, such as the 500009,
must be used at the DVR to convert back to coaxial cable. In order to install
the product in this configuration, please follow the steps below:
1. Install the Passive CCTV Hub in its final location. Please verify that the
distance between the cameras and the head end are within MuxLab
specifications.
2. Connect a MuxLab passive CCTV Balun (MuxLab p/n 500000, 500009,
500022, 500023, 500024 or 500029) to each CCTV camera video output.
Please refer to the appropriate CCTV balun installation guide for details.
3. Connect one Cat5 cable from each camera to one of the modular RJ45
ports on the front of the Passive CCTV Hub (fig 12). Please ensure that
EIA 568 wiring and straight-through polarity is respected between the
CCTV balun and the rack. The use of other Cat5 connection hardware
such as patch panels and 110 blocks may be used.

4. For each camera port, determine whether video, power and/or control is to
be transmitted via the same Cat5 cable. If only video is to be transmitted,
then the Power/Control terminals and port switch may be disregarded.
