Broadband Video Balun - Male F on 6" pigtail to RJ45 jack pins 4 & 5 from ComputerCableStore™. Broadband video (CATV) over UTP, once thought to be impractical (or impossible) is now commonplace, due to the use of the PV880 Series of Broadband Video Baluns from ETS. Commercial and professional grade video can be transmitted over Category 5 and better UTP. Distance is a function of frequency and signal level. Using Category 5 or better cable, all channels up to 26, at a drive level of not more than 36dBmV will accommodate 100 meters. The usable distance is reduced at higher channels, reaching 50 meters at channel 78. Application Note Off air channel 26 is 542 to 548 MHz. CATV allows packing channels into unused on-air frequencies. SpecificationsThe 8 Position 8 Contact (8P8C) (often called RJ45) plugs and sockets are most regularly used as an ethernet connector. 8P8C connectors are typically used to terminate twisted pair cable.
