Transmit your digital video within television facilities and between professional audio equipment over inexpensive twisted-pair cable.
Save on cable costs with the Black Box IC740A HD-SDI Balun! Choose CAT5 UTP cable for point-to-point digital video instead of coax cable. Use inexpensive UTP cable instead of bulky coax to extend the distance between digital video devices. This tiny balun allows audio equipment to be connected or moved within a structured cabling environment. Transmit uncompressed, unencrypted digital video up to 150 feet (45 m) via unshielded copper twisted pair (UTP) in a point-to-point connection.
Use the IC740A balun in video production, broadcasting, HD camcorder, studio-to-studio, post-production, live events, medical imaging displays, mobile video, HD/SD routing, HD-CCTV, and medical imaging applications.
