Steven_W Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I'm familiar with the CCTV mule product from systemq, I spoke to them yesterday they said 2 HD cams cannot be chucked down 1 cable... anyone know of a product to get around it? (Install already done, all cables chased in to walls/under flooring/inside metal conduit, wants 1 more camera) Not one of my jobs, just helping out a mate. Any one know of a way round it without recabling? I suggested changing DVR for Tribrid then changing the 1 HD cam for 2 x analogue but they do not want to do that... all...

petrolhead Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Pikey bodge, try passing video down the power cable with baluns.make it clear to the customer you are not guaranteeing it wont pick up interference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven_W Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 Bloody hell I suppose I could try that... where he wants a 3rd cam there's already 2 on a pole mount, I suppose if I could get that to work I could split the power from 1 to 3 cams leaving the power spare & try it... I hadn't thought about that, but will baluns work for AHD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petrolhead Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Works well on twisted pair, not tried it on power cable. I did see an install on analogue before that had baluns on alarm cable and it was fine, good picture. Use hd baluns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
