Pelco TW3008AR-4 manual Applications, Cable Type

APPLICATIONS

You can connect the TW3008AR-4 active receiver to transmitters, such as the TW3001P passive transceiver, TW3001AT active transmitter, and CC3710/CC3610 UTP cameras. Although you can connect these products using an unshielded twisted pair Cat3 and Cat5 cable, Cat5e and Cat 6 are recommended for the best video performance.

Always connect the UTP wires on the Cat cable from + to + and from – to –. For example, if you connect the blue wire to the + on the TW3008AR-4 make sure you connect the other end of the blue wire to the + on the transmitter.

Table A shows the maximum cable distance with Coaxitron or video only when connecting the TW3008AR-4 to a TW3001P passive transceiver with a particular type of Cat cable.

Table A. Cable Distance with TW3001P
