Multi-Channel Passive 

Transceiver Hubs Installation 

Sheet 

Introduction 

GE Security Multi-Channel Passive Transceiver Hubs transmit or receive base-
band video signals over unshielded twisted pair (UTP) wires, point-to-point, for 
distances up to 750 feet (228 m).  They also provide support for the “up the coax” 
Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) control signals. 

These passive hubs are 1U in height and can be wall, desk or rack mounted.  
They use Category 2-7 twisted pair wires and do not require power.  They provide 
built-in surge suppression to protect video equipment against damaging voltage 
spikes and provide noise immunity to ensure quality images.  

The included RJ-45 adapter provides an easy way to connect the passive hubs to 
other GE VPD products via Cat-5 cables and RJ-45 connectors. These passive 
hubs are bidirectional and support Up-the-Coax Pan/Tilt/Zoom telemetry signals. 
Any unused pair of UTP cables can also be used for transporting other telemetry 
signals. 

The following model numbers are covered in this document: 

• GEC-4VPHUB 

• GEC-8VPHUB 

 

• GEC-16VPHUB 

• GEC-32VPHUB
