Cabling Topologies
The LongReach 16 may be deployed in various cabling topologies depending on the type of
CCTV system and the architectural layout of the site. There are three basic layouts shown in
the following diagrams.
Camera to Head End – Short Distance
In this scenario, the LongReach 16, central monitoring equipment and remote power are all co-
located.
In regard to the cabling, siamese cables for video, power and control may be installed between
the central monitoring room. Alternatively, Cat5 cables may be used to transport video, power
and control to the camera. It is important to note that if remote power is transmitted via Cat5
cable, a Class II power supply must be used.
Camera to Head End – Extended Distance
In this layout the LongReach 16 and the central monitoring equipment are co-located and due
the distance, remote power to the camera is supplied locally.
