VIDEO BALUN CONVERTER FROM HAUFE!

HAUFE HAS EXPANDED ITS RANGE OF VIDEO TECHNOLOGY PRODUCTS WITH THE INTRODUCTION OF A SPECIALIZED BALUN CONVERTER!



And what does balun stand for? It is an abbreviation referring to balanced and unbalanced signals. The new product series is designed for use in cabling systems to serve as an impedance and insulation converter. Usually, the goal behind using a balun converter is to cancel the reflected RF wave inherent to unbalanced cables (i.e., coaxial) and thus to prevent the associated pick-up and radiation of noise.


HAUFE's new ST8024 video balun module was designed especially for use in video networks, where the device converts video signals from unbalanced coaxial cables for transmission over balanced twisted pairs. This significantly reduces cabling costs for CCTV systems, as it permits system designers to optimally use existing wiring! The ST8024 measures a very compact 10.5mm x 8.5mm x 9mm (LxWxH), thereby supporting miniaturization for such applications as video networks, hubs and local video signal distribution systems that use installed twisted pair technology, etc. The HAUFE video balun converter can also be configured for SMD applications upon customer request.

OVERVIEW OF TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS:
• Frequency Range: 50Hz to 8MHz
• Transmission Range: 400m max.
• Insertion Loss: < 1dB
• Signal Voltage: 1.5Vss max.
• Matching: 75Ohms / 100Ohms
