APPLICATIONS
 
You can connect the TW3004AR active receiver to transmitters, such as the TW3001P passive 
transceiver, and the TW3001AT active transmitter, and to Pelco UTP cameras, such as the CC3710/
CC3610 series. Although you can connect these products using an unshielded twisted pair Cat3 and 
Cat5 cable, Cat5e and Cat 6 are recommended for the best video performance.
Always connect the UTP wires on the Cat cable from + to + and from – to –. For example, if you 
connect the blue wire to the + on the TW3004AR make sure you connect the other end of the blue wire 
to the + on the transmitter.
Table A shows the maximum cable distance with Coaxitron or video only when connecting the 
TW3004AR to a TW3001P passive transceiver with a particular type of Cat cable.
