CAUTION!!!
Failure to read this notice may result in damaging
the camera or device in which the warranty will be voided
due to installation error.
When using any type of RJ45 jack powered balun, a
Cable Tester
must be used to ensure proper connection. Many individuals can
make RJ45 connections easily, however mistakes can be made.
When making connections for powered baluns, make sure to test
the connectivity and ensure proper alignment on both sides.
When using passive or active baluns, the alignment of the cable is imperative to the success of
the operation. Use a Cable Tester because it is a very simple, easy to find tool that can save a
huge headache. For example, if one of the video wires accidentally gets crimped into the power
side and the powered balun is then hooked up to the camera, both the camera and the balun
have just burned out. This is an extremely costly mistake, not only in dollars but in time as well.
How long does it take to test the RJ45 using a Cable Tester?
Less than one minute
.
The new terms and conditions state: When an RMA is requested and the product has been
burned by bad RJ45 connections, the product is NO LONGER covered under warranty.
Note:
Whichever way the RJ45 is terminated on one end of the cable, IT MUST BE THE SAME ON
THE OTHER SIDE for either TIA/EIA 568A or TIA/EIA 568B. Below is an example of TIAEIA 568B.
