HubWay8DS Installation Guide
Overview:
Altronix HubWay8DS Passive UTP Transceiver Hub w/Integral Camera Power transmits UTP video, RS422/RS485
data and power over a single CAT-5 or higher structured cable. Unit provides 8 camera channels in a space
saving 1U EIA 19” rack mount chassis which may be rack, wall or shelf mounted. Video transmission range is
up to 750 ft. max. per channel. Units are compatible with AC and/or DC fixed or PTZ cameras when utilizing
Altronix HubWayAv, HubWayAv2, HubWayDv or HubWayDvi Video Balun/Combiners. In addition, the unit features
individually selectable 24VAC or 28VAC, PTC protected outputs with surge suppression. An optional HubSat4D
Passive UTP Transceiver Hub with Integral Camera Power unit can be used as an accessory module to transmit
video from up to 4 cameras over a single CAT-5 or higher structured cable back to the HubWay8DS. In addition,
the HubSat unit provides power to these cameras locally to eliminate the possibility of voltage drop associated
with long cable runs.
