Chapter I General Description
1.1 Description
The V2401 series video distribution amplifiers provide a
cost-effective means of maintaining CCTV video quality for
long-distance transmission and for video signal distribution.
In most CCTV surveillance/security applications, live video images
from a site camera may require to be transmitted over a long
distance or be viewed at different control sites. In each case, the
video transmission may be hampered by signal attenuation and
undesirable noises.
The V2401 series are designed as easy-to-use solution for these
conditions. They amplify a single video signal, and distribute it to a
total of 16 outputs. Each video output has the same quality as the
original input signal, ensuring non-degrading transmission over a
long distance or to different sites.
The distribution amplifier is compatible with standard B&W and
color video systems, and features a wide frequency response.
The V2401 series are plug-and-play devices that require no manual
adjustment. Two LEDs are provided in the front panel to indicate
system power status and video signal presence.
Rack or desktop mount options are available for different
configurations.
