Product Description
Prolux BALUN-PUSH-BLACK-2MP-PROLUX is a passive video balun built for installers running HD-TVI, AHD, CVI or analogue CCTV signals over twisted-pair cable instead of coax.
Key specs
- Signal support: HD-TVI, AHD, CVI and analog CCTV
- Resolution: compatible with systems up to 1080p
- Connection: BNC to camera or DVR, push-in terminals for the twisted-pair side
- Cable: designed for Cat5e or Cat6 UTP
- Termination: push-in terminal block — no crimping or soldering tools needed on site
- Form factor: compact, suited to tight enclosures and multi-way installs
On the job
Being passive, this balun needs no local power — it's a straight impedance-matching link between coax-native BNC video and a UTP run. Push-in terminals let you land conductors quickly without stripping to a specific length or reaching for a crimp tool, which matters when you're fitting a run of these on a first-fix.
Compatibility note
Because it handles HD-TVI, AHD and CVI alongside legacy analogue, one balun spec covers mixed-generation CCTV estates — useful where a site has a blend of older analogue cameras and newer HD-over-coax replacements sharing the same cable infrastructure.
Use it wherever a coax-terminated camera or DVR needs to run over structured Cat5e/Cat6 cabling instead of dedicated coax, particularly on longer runs where UTP is already in place.

Frequently Asked Questions
What signal types does this balun support?
It supports HD-TVI, AHD, CVI and standard analogue CCTV signals, so it works across mixed-generation coax-based camera systems.
What resolution can it handle?
It's compatible with CCTV systems up to 1080p resolution.
What cable does it use?
It's designed for Cat5e or Cat6 UTP cable, connecting to the camera or DVR side via a BNC connector.
Does it need power?
No — it's a passive balun, so it doesn't require an external power supply to operate.
