Baluns extend transmission distances. Baluns
allow you to greatly extend audio-visual signals which are normally
limited with traditional cable. For example, send:
- Audio up to 2,500 feet without power
- Composite video up to 2,200 feet without power
- Composite video up to 5,000 feet with power
- S-video up to 1,000 feet without power
- RGB video up to 500 feet without power
- 1080i/p HDTV up to 500 feet without power
- Broadband video up to 180 feet without power
- VGA up to 550 feet with power
- HDMI up to 150 feet with power
- DVI up to 150 feet with power
- Computer keyboard and mouse signals up to 350 feet without
power
Baluns utilize existing wiring. Many buildings
already contain structured cabling systems. If so, the hard work
is already done--simply connect a balun at each end of the cable
run to transmit your signal.
Increase installation efficiency. Traditionally,
a single cable could not transmit both audio and video. With baluns
both audio and video can be transmitted via one inexpensive run
of Cat 5.
Baluns eliminate background hum and rolling interference.
Because they contain isolation transformers or common mode chokes
and utilize twisted cabling, baluns eliminate the ground loops
that cause background hum and rolling interference.
Baluns lower installation cost. In many installations,
the cost of baluns plus Cat 5 cable is less than traditional wire--especially
when going extended distances.
