The Vigitron VPD series are designed to combine video, PTZ data, and 
camera power over a single 4-pair UTP cable to simplify CCTV instalations in 
a structured wiring environment. They support up to 16 cameras. These units 
receive low-voltage camera power from any third-party multi-output Class 2 
power supply. Each camera power output (excluding Vi1053) is equipped with 
a self-resetting fuse for extra protection.

1. Use point-to-point Unshielded Twisted Pair wire, 24-16 AWG (0,5-1,3mm), 
stranded or solid, Category 2 or better.
2. The Video signal may co-exist in the same wire bundle as other Video, 
telephone, Data, control signals, or low-voltage Power. It is also OK to run 
Vigitron Video signals in or near electromagnetic fields (in accordance with 
National Electrical Code, local, or other local safety requirements).
3. Measure the wire distance.
4. DO NOT USE SHIELDED TWISTED PAIR WIRE. Multi-pair (6 pair or 
more) wires with an overall shield are fine.
5. DO NOT  USE UN-TWISTED WIRE.
6. DO NOT  place a transmit and a receive signal in the same wire bundle. It 
may cause interference.
7. DO NOT  send “Up-the-Coax” Pan/Tilt/Zoom signals through active 
(amplified) Vigitron  transmitters or receivers.
Passive Vigitron transceivers can transmit “Up-the-Coax” P/T/Z control 
signals up to 750ft (225m).
8. Vigitron recommends the use of 18AWG solid wires for power connections. 
Verify wire distance, camera current requirement and wire resistance limit for 
the maximum distance that Power can travel.  Use “Power Distance Chart” to 
verify the wire distance.

Safety Warnings

- This installation should be made by a qualified service person and should 
conform to all local codes.
- Never put Vigitron signals in the same conduit as high-voltage wiring.
- To reduce a risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose this product to rain 
or moisture.
- The Vigitron equipment shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing.
- No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on Vigitron 
equipment.

Vi1304VPD or Vi1316VPD: Control End Connection

   

Video:  

Use a cat-5 cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends to connect the 

RJ-45 video output of the Vi1304VPD or Vi1316VPD to a Vigitron active or 
passive receiver HUB.

Power: 

Connect one isolated fused power supply output to each power input 

of Vi1304VPD or Vi1316VPD. Make sure that the power supply is class 2 and 
can handle the required current and voltage.

Data: 

Connect the Data connector of the Vi1304VPD or Vi1316VPD to the 

PTZ controlling unit such as DVR .

Cat-5 Cable: 

Connect the RJ-45 connector of each Cat-5 cable coming from 

cameras to the appropriate RJ-45 jack on Vi1304VPD or Vi1316VPD. Make 
sure that the pin-out of the RJ-45 connector matches the following color code 
of the Cat-5 wires.
For short runs place the Vi1304VPD or Vi1316VPD and power supply close to 
the control end.
For long runs  place the Vi1304VPD or Vi1316VPD and power supply at a mid 
span point close to the camera end to minimize the loss of voltage over 
Twisted pair.

Vi1053VPD: Camera End Connection

Video:  

Connect the baseband Video signal output of the camera to the BNC 

pigtail on the Vi1053VPD.

Power: 

Connect the Power UTP pigtail (Black/Red) of the Vi1053VPD to the 

power connector of the camera. 

Data: 

Connect the Data UTP pigtail (Black/White) of the Vi1053VPD to the 

data connector of the camera.

Cat-5 Cable: 

Connect the RJ-45 connector attached to the camera end of 

Cat-5 cable to the RJ-45 Jack of Vi1053VPD.  Make sure that the pin-out of 
the RJ-45 connector matches the Vigitron color code of the Cat-5 wires.

Vi1053VPD: Control End Connection  

Video: 

 Connect the baseband Video signal output (BNC pigtail) of the 

Vi1053VPD to the BNC input of a video receiver unit such as a DVR.

Power:

 Connect the Power UTP pigtail (Black/Red) of the Vi1053VPD to the 

power connector of the a Class-II power supply. 

Data: 

Connect the Data UTP pigtail (Black/White) of the Vi1053VPD to the 

data connector of the PTZ controller output.
Cat-5 Cable: Connect the RJ-45 connector attached to the control end of 
Cat-5 cable to the RJ-45 Jack of Vi1053VPD.  Make sure that the pin-out of 
the RJ-45 connector matches the Vigitron color code of the Cat-5 wires.
