V1-CV Component Video Balun 

Installation Guide 

 

Introduction 

 

 

The Intelix V1-CV Component Video Balun allows a single component video signal 
(Y, Pb, or Pr) to be transmitted via cost-effective unshielded twisted pair (UTP) 
cable.  Three (3) balun pairs are required for one point-to-point component (YPbPr) 
video  connection.  The product allows three coaxial cables to be replaced by one 
Category 5 twisted pair cable allowing standard structured cabling techniques to be 
used for neater and more streamlined cabling.  The V1-CV is compact enough to 
allow three (3) units to be connected side by side on the back of the component 
video equipment. 

 
 
 
 

Installation 

Component Video (YPbPr) Connection: 

Three (3) pairs of Component Video Baluns (six baluns) are needed to complete one 
component (YPbPr) connection via Cat5 twisted pair.  To install V1-CV baluns, perform 
the following steps: 

1.

 

Identify the pin configuration of the baluns.   One twisted pair is required.  The 
V1-CV is reverse polarity sensitive. Please ensure that wiring is straight-
through (Ring to Ring, Tip to Tip)
