TL-VB-BNC

Overview

The TL-VB-BNC is an RF balun module manufactured by L-com, designed for video signal transmission applications. It operates within a frequency range of 0Hz to 8MHz and features BNC straight plug connectors on both ends for in-line integration. The component has a characteristic impedance of 75 ohms and supports solder termination methods. It functions as a unbalanced-to-balanced converter, facilitating the connection between coaxial cable systems and balanced video lines without requiring additional tools during installation.

Feature Summary

• Converts unbalanced signals to balanced signals for video transmission
• Features BNC straight plug connectors for direct in-line insertion
• Designed for 75-ohm coaxial cable systems
• Supports solder termination for secure connections

Applications

• Closed-circuit television (CCTV) video transmission
• Video surveillance system interconnections
• Balanced/unbalanced signal conversion in broadcast environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version provided by L-com or authorized distributors to confirm current manufacturing status and technical specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing 75-ohm infrastructure before procurement. Cross-reference part numbers with official L-com catalogs to avoid confusion with similar balun models. Confirm that the BNC connector type matches the required interface standards for the intended application.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a passive solution is required to convert unbalanced coaxial video signals to balanced lines within the 0Hz to 8MHz range. It is suitable for applications where minimal insertion loss is critical and tool-free installation is preferred. Consider its 75-ohm impedance rating to ensure compatibility with standard video coaxial cables. Evaluate space constraints as it is an in-line module requiring direct connection between cable segments.
