What is balun ?
Answer
The term of balun is derived by combining balanced and unbalanced.
A balun is a kind of transformer, it's used to convert an unbalanced signal (coaxial cable) to a balanced one (twisted pair cable). Because in many communication systems, there are mis-matches in connector types and differences in impedance between equipments and cabling systems
Balun is useful for long distance audio/video transmission: standard passive video balun can transmit video signal up to a maximum distance of 650 meters when linked "point-to-point", via Cat5 or better UTP cable, but usually, typical distance goes up to 400 meters. Some other active balun transmits signals up to 2kms.
Used in pairs, balun allow you to eliminate more expensive coaxial cable, including coupling signals from remote video cameras to display systems, video capture, security and surveillance monitoring applications.
Balun can be used in many different applications: closed-circuit television, telecommunication, CATV, computer networks and other audio/video systems.
