The NVT Phybridge NV-1613S is a professional-grade 16-channel video passive transceiver stub hub engineered for security integrators, system designers, and facility managers who need reliable analog video transmission over standard network cabling. This passive transceiver eliminates the need for dedicated video cabling by transmitting real-time monochrome or color video signals over Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP) cable at distances up to 750 feet (225 meters). Its compact 19-inch 1U rack-mountable design fits seamlessly into space-constrained server rooms and control centers, while supporting baseband composite video and up-the-coax control signals on the same wire pair—making it an ideal solution for structured cabling systems in analog video surveillance and broadcast applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 16-channel video passive transceiver used for?
A 16-channel video passive transceiver like the NV-1613S enables simultaneous transmission of 16 video feeds over standard UTP cabling, reducing installation costs and complexity compared to traditional coaxial systems. It's commonly used in multi-camera surveillance installations, broadcast facilities, and analog video distribution networks.
How far can the NV-1613S transmit video over UTP cable?
The NVT Phybridge NV-1613S supports video transmission distances up to 750 feet (225 meters) over UTP cabling, making it suitable for large facilities, campus deployments, and extended-distance analog video applications without requiring signal amplification.
Can the NV-1613S transmit control signals along with video?
Yes, the NV-1613S supports up-the-coax type control signal transmission on the same wire pair as the video signal, allowing bidirectional communication for camera control, PTZ operation, and device management without additional cabling.
Is the NV-1613S compatible with other NVT products?
The NV-1613S is designed to work with any NVT passive transceiver or hub, allowing you to build scalable, modular structured cabling systems for analog video infrastructure that can grow with your facility's needs.
