Video CAT5 Cable (UTP Transmission)
CAT5 cabling for video transmission allows multiple domes to be transmitted down the
same multicore CAT5 cable without dome video interference or crosstalk.
the distances and UTP options suitable for ACUIX ES domes. Requires one wire pair per
dome. It can support up to four domes on a single CAT5 cable.
Adhere as closely as possible to the following recommendations when installing with CAT5
cable and UTP receiving equipment.
• A UTP receiver module must be used at the control end of the system for every dome
that is transmitting video via CAT5. A UTP hub can be used to receive up to 16 domes
using CAT5 cable.
• PTZ telemetry is possible when a passive UTP receiver module or hub is used at the
control end of the system. If an active receiver is used at the control end of the
system, then RS485 telemetry must be used. This requires another single twisted pair
per dome.
• When wiring via twisted pair, always ensure that you are actually using a twisted pair
by examining the cable. Failure to use wires from the same pair leads to noise
introduction and subsequent video and telemetry problems.
• The CAT5 cable used must not be shielded/screened in any way, either by foil,
braided shield, or any other means. The use of any cable other than unshielded CAT5
may lead to a reduction in performance and is solely the responsibility of the installer.

Application
Main internal cable runs. May also be used externally in
containments or when damage is unlikely. Not very
flexible.
Patch cables from main runs to equipment. Equipment
interconnection. Flexible and useful for tight bends.
Duct/containment rated cable for external main cable
runs. Some grades are suited for direct burial.
