The LTC 8016/90 Allegiant Bilinx Data Interface unit is an
accessory used for communicating over-the-coax, with up
to 16 Bilinx-capable AutoDome

®

 and/or Dinion™ Series

cameras. Compatible with all seven Allegiant Series matrix
switcher/controllers, the LTC 8016 provides complete
control of pan/tilt/zoom, auxiliaries, and pre-position
functions of Bilinx enabled AutoDome Series cameras. In
addition, complete programming of Dinion Series cameras
and AutoDomes via their on-screen menus is supported.

Functions
Bilinx technology also supports camera-generated event
reporting to the Allegiant. This technology allows remote
alarm inputs and motion event data to be sent to the
Allegiant without the need for additional wiring between
the camera site and the main control location.
The LTC 8016 is designed so that other Bi-Phase code
generating products, like Bosch Digital Videos Recorders,
can be used with the unit for control of PTZ functions and
camera menu access over the video cable. This high level
of flexibility provides a low cost per channel solution
whenever control and configuration of remote cameras is
needed.

With Bilinx technology, installation costs are reduced
because no additional data communication cabling to the
camera site is required. Installation time is also reduced;
once the cameras and data cable to the LTC 8016 are
connected, and its group ID number is set, all other
internal settings are configured automatically.
Use of the LTC 8016 also reduces camera installation time
because there is no need to set AutoDome site addresses.
At initial connection of an AutoDome camera to the
LTC 8016, its identification is automatically established.
The LTC 8016 is supplied in an enclosure compatible with
mounting in an EIA 48 cm (19 in.) rack, requiring only a 1-
unit rack height. To support large systems, up to 31 units
can be cascaded, comprising up to 496 Bilinx-compatible
cameras.
The LTC 8016 can also be used to transmit Bilinx
communications over a number of video transmission
systems. Example devices include fiber optic links and
external balun devices that use CAT5 twisted pair cables
for video communication.

Maximum Video Signal Distances
Coax

Up to 300 m (1000 ft) using standard CCTV-grade RG-59U

with copper center conductor and copper braided shield; up

to 600 m (2000 ft.) using CCTV-grade RG-11 or RG-6.

Fiber

Up to 600 m (2000 ft) using LTC 4630 and LTC 4631 Series
