Multi-Channel VPD Combiner 

Receiver Installation Sheet 

Introduction 

GE Security Multi-Channel Video Power Data Combiner Receivers combine video, 
PTZ data, and camera power over a single 4-pair UTP cable to simplify CCTV 
installations in a structured wiring environment. They support up to 16 cameras 
and should be installed in the control room. 

The GEC-4VDPBC and GEC-16VDPBC need to be used along with external class II 
power supplies. The GEC-8PVPDTCHUB and GEC-16PVPDTCHUB come with built-
in 8 and 16 channel fully isolated class II 24/28 VAC power supplies. Each camera 
power output in addition to an auto-reset fuse is equipped with a 2 A glass fuse 
that is easily accessible from the front panel.  

At the camera end a video balun/combiner provides video, power and data on 
separate outputs. The video connections are through BNC connectors to the DVR 
or matrix switches.  The data connections to the DVR are through RJ-45 
connectors.  There is a separate data connection for each camera.  All equipment 
follows industry-standard EIA/TIA 568B pin-outs. 

The following model numbers are covered in this document: 

• GEC-4VDPBC 

• GEC-16VDPBC 

• GEC-8PVPDTCHUB 

• GEC-16PVPDTCHUB
