Multi-Channel VPD 

Combiners Installation Sheet 

Introduction 

GE Security Multi-Channel VPD Combiners 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.   The GEC-8VPDCHUB and 
the GEC-16VPDCHUB models come with built-in AC power supplies. They receive 
110/220 VAC power and provide up to 16 ports of 24/28 VAC isolated power to 
the cameras.  Each port is individually equipped with a resettable fuse plus a 2A 
glass fuse that is easily accessible from front.  

For short runs install the GEC-16VPDCHUB close to the video receiver unit at the 
control end. For long runs place the GEC-8VPDCHUB or GEC-16VPDCHUB at a 
mid span point close to the camera end to minimize the loss of voltage over 
twisted pair. 

The following model numbers are covered in this document: 

• GEC-4VDPC 

• GEC-16VDPC 

• GEC-8VPDCHUB
