Altronix Corp HUBWAY162D 16 Channel Balun Hub Power Supply

Product Description

The ALTRONIX CORP HUBWAY162D is a combination passive video balun hub and power supply distribution unit designed for structured cabling installations using unshielded twisted pair (UTP) wiring. It consolidates video signal transmission and power distribution into a single enclosure, reducing wiring complexity at the head end of a surveillance or access control system. The HUBWAY162D supports 16 channels, making it suited for mid-size camera deployments where a centralized distribution point is required. Security installers and low-voltage technicians are the primary trades that specify and install this unit.

The HUBWAY162D is intended for use in commercial and residential security system installations where coaxial cable is replaced or supplemented by UTP cabling infrastructure. It serves as the central hub for passive balun-based video distribution, accepting twisted pair runs from remote camera locations and consolidating them at a single rack-mount or enclosure-mount point. Systems using passive UTP video transmission over structured Cat-type cabling are the typical application environment for this device.

Key Features

• 16-channel passive video balun hub consolidates UTP video and power distribution in one unit
• Combination design integrates balun termination points with power supply output for simplified head-end wiring
• UTP-based video transmission eliminates the need for coaxial cable runs to individual cameras
• Sold as a single unit (each), suitable for single-zone or multi-zone security system buildouts

Compatibility

Designed as a UTP accessory hub for passive video balun systems in structured cabling-based surveillance and access control installations. No specific compatible model numbers or part numbers were provided in the available product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician familiar with UTP video transmission systems and NEC low-voltage wiring requirements. Power down the system and disconnect all power sources before making connections at the hub. Ensure UTP cable runs meet the distance and category requirements specified for passive balun video transmission. Do not exceed the rated power output when connecting camera loads to the distribution terminals.
