Therefore the time necessary for AGC compensation to stabilize is related to the change in cable length and/or input signal levels. © MuxLab Inc.2004-2006...

  • Page 13 The DVR equipment was subsequently moved to a new location further away and new Cat5 cabling was installed. MuxLab’s Passive CCTV Hub (500130) may be used to convert the original sixteen (16) coaxial cables at the old location to Cat5. The LongReach 16 Active Hub (500122) is used to restore the signals to coax and compensate for the extended distance at the new DVR location.

    However, as a guideline, it is recommended to perform a pilot test with the hub under worst case conditions to ensure user acceptable image results. This would involve testing a camera in extreme bright or dark surroundings and connecting it the furthest distance from the hub. © MuxLab Inc.2004-2006...
