Altronix Corp HUBWAY8DS 8-channel Utp Video Hub

Product Description

The ALTRONIX CORP HUBWAY8DS is an 8-channel UTP video hub with integrated power supply, designed for use in structured cabling and video distribution systems. It passes video signals over unshielded twisted-pair wiring, supporting bandwidth up to 750 MHz. Security installers and low-voltage technicians deploy this hub to consolidate video feeds from multiple cameras into a centralized distribution point, eliminating the need for coaxial cable runs across long distances. The integrated power supply simplifies wiring by combining signal distribution and device power into a single unit.

This hub is suited for commercial and residential surveillance installations where UTP infrastructure is already in place or being planned. It is particularly useful in retrofit projects where replacing existing structured cabling with coaxial is not practical. The 8-channel capacity makes it appropriate for mid-size camera deployments, serving as a central node in a star-topology video distribution layout. Low-voltage security technicians typically specify this unit during the rough-in or trim-out phase of a camera installation project.

Key Features

• 8-channel UTP video distribution in a single unit
• Integrated power supply eliminates need for a separate power source
• 750 MHz bandwidth supports high-resolution analog video signals
• UTP wiring compatibility reduces installation material costs versus coaxial
• Centralized hub design supports star-topology camera layouts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install UTP video hub for use in analog surveillance and video distribution systems utilizing unshielded twisted-pair cabling infrastructure.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for signal and power wiring. Power down the system before making any wiring connections to the hub. Ensure UTP cable runs meet the distance and gauge specifications required for the video signal bandwidth in use. Do not mix signal and AC power conductors in the same conduit run without proper shielding or separation as required by local code.
